2. PowerPoint- approaching the worlds religions obstacles and challenge
These are the obstacles and challenges with examples from the PowerPoint
- Out of hand dismissal (mocking foreigness or complexity, refusal to learn, and Clinging to stereotypes)
- Museum shelf (Perspective: distant, ideal, no relevance to contemporary, daily life, and impersonal)
- Premature Assimilation(Too much of a good thing, immediate connection, appropriation and Glossing over complexities and distinctions)
- Idealization(Medical School analogy)
- Respect for differences and complexities
- Maturity not to make inappropriate comments
- Awareness that there's lots of different people in the world
- Intelligence to learn
4. Closing prayer- Silent group meditation for 2-3 minutes to reflect upon ourselves
