On April 20th, from 4:30 pm to 6:00 pm, at the Pontifical Gregorian University (Room C008), a short interreligious seminar will be held entitled: “ Together for Freedom: The Abrahamic Faiths Dialogue on the Anthropological and Theological Dimension ”
The 90-minute discussion, followed by questions from the audience, will be in Italian with speakers from the Abrahamic traditions:
Judaism Marco Cassuto Morselli (Federation of Jewish-Christian Friendships)
and Lisa Palmieri-Billig (AJC-American Jewish Committee)Islam: Imam Yahya Sergio Pallavicini (Italian Religious Islamic Community)
and Cenap Aydin (Tevere Institute)Christianity: Paolo Trianni (Faculty of Missiology - Gregorian)
and Emiliano Stornelli (Religion and Security Council)
The seminar is organized by the Acton Institute and its new Collins Center for Abrahamic Heritage , with the patronage of the Gregorian Center for Interreligious Studies and the collaboration of several partners.
It will bring together representatives of these three traditions to better define and defend the anthropological and theological foundations of human freedom.
We believe this is an ideal meeting of leaders seeking to safeguard a sacrosanct and fundamental value for human prosperity. This is urgently needed after the escalation of restrictions on human freedom in terms of religious, economic, and social expression during the pandemic and the excessive pervasiveness of state power.
