چکیده
The first of these two axioms draws attention to the interfaith hobby. Interfaith organizations abound. Every city and town in the western world has an interfaith group. These enthusiasts have created a multitude of organizations. The oldest is probably the International Association for Religious Freedom (which can trace a history back to 1900). Then, to list just a sample, we have the International Council for Christians and Jews (which has its roots in the United States back in 1924), World Fellowship of Faiths (a Chicago based creation from 1924), the World Conference for Peace through Religion (which started in 1928), the World Congress of Faiths (which can be dated from 1936), Temple of Understanding (started in the United States in 1960), the World Interfaith Association (derived from the UN in 1963), World Thanksgiving (a US Interfaith version of Thanksgiving Day which developed in 1976), the Interfaith Foundation (organized by the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Hussain of Jordan, and Evelyn Rothschild in the 1980s) and the Interfaith Network of the United Kingdom (which emerged from the WCF in 1987). These organizations attract people who love encountering the other.

متن کاملThe Moral Stereotypes of Liberals and Conservatives: Exaggeration of Differences across the Political Spectrum

متن کاملLiberals and conservatives rely on common moral foundations when making moral judgments about influential people.
Do liberals and conservatives have qualitatively different moral points of view? Specifically, do liberals and conservatives rely on the same or different sets of moral foundations-care, fairness, loyalty, authority, and purity (Haidt, 2012)-when making moral judgments about influential people? In Study 1, 100 experts evaluated the impact that 40 influential figures had on each moral foundation...
متن کاملPolitical Conservatives' Affinity for Obedience to Authority Is Loyal, Not Blind.
Liberals and conservatives disagree about obeying authorities, with conservatives holding the more positive views.
