Have you guys seen this?
An attempt by leading Muslim clerics and scholars to establish some common ground between Muslims and Christians, and a response from many Christian leaders and academics (including our own Kellough, Litfin, and Jones).
So will this have any lasting meaning or effect? Or is it all a bunch of feel-good pat-ourselves-on-the-back kumbayah-singing? I'm not sure. I definitely respect the efforts, but my cynicism just won't let me get too excited about their impact.

Seems like a big fat waste of time to me. What's the point, and where's this going?
I don't care if there are any similarities. Because--ultimately--they are not.
Why not focus on tolerance. Think what you want, and just don't kill us. And start policing your own people, so we don't have to.
And shut down CAIR while you're at it.
