Muslims in NY Conference

The Muslims in NY Project out of Columbia is having a conference next week. I know many of the panelists and have heard some of the presentations. If you have a chance to check it out, you should. Details here.

God in a 100 Words

Patheos asked to describe God in 100 words. They compiled all the responses they received to this “theoblogger” challenge, and the results are interesting. Check out the site. I am one of two Muslims, the other being Svend White from Akram’s Razor, and without speaking to each other about the challenge, we focused on God’s immanence and transcendence. Nice complement. How would you describe God in a 100 words?

Anglican [Gay] Sex

The Atlantic has a short piece on Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams and how he is guiding the Church through the problems of recognizing homosexuals. The middle way, via media, seems to be a good reminder of what we need to be doing in religious discourse in general. The Archbishop’s passage on sex is an interesting read.
