Views of Islam Part I: Religious Violence






Last year at this time, especially in the state of Utah, a whole lot of attention was captured by an anniversary. 9-11, the 150th anniversary of the massacre at mountain meadows. By coincidence, we all hope by sheer coincidence, the anniversary has been shared now for seven years by another massacre; one perpetrated in Manhatten, in Pennsylvania, at the Pentagon. Thinking Aloud turns its attention to questions about Islam, the nature of its association with religious violence, and by way of comparison, the connection between ANY religion and the phenomenon of violence. Join us for Thinking Aloud, on the anniversaries.
