The Inevitable Outcome of Interfaith Dialogue

Some of the people I most admire are those who are devout in their personal faith but also curious and generous in their interest to learn about others who may have a different one.

With Liberty and Justice for All

We talked as he cut my hair and I discovered that he’d only been living in the U.S. for 18 months. I asked what he thought of the U.S. and without any hesitation he said, “This is the greatest country in the world.”

This UN Day In Support of Victims of Torture, Let’s Imagine a World Without It

True torture in all its forms, certainly far worse than anything I’ve ever experienced, is designed specifically to do damage to another person, to leave a mark—an indelible impression that is all but impossible to get rid of, if the victim is fortunate enough to even survive.

I’m a Scientologist. I’m a humanitarian. The bigotry has got to stop.
