By Joseph Laycock

…these writers were dependent on translators and their ideas often reflect Western Theosophy rather than Tibetan Buddhism.

This is a face of Islam that people in the United States and other Western countries too rarely see.

The UOC-MP has also reached out to the OCU, saying it hoped for dialogue….

By Amy Fallas

…alist impulse indoctrinated in a theology of American exceptionalism and a Western “civilizing” project. Yet few have interrogated how American Christianity’s past reckoning with the legacy of its foreign missions can inform the Chau case. It’s a tradition filled with debate over the ethics of its strategies, projects and goals. Never has there been a more urgent time to do so. In 1932, a commission known as the Laymen’s Foreign Missions Inquiry p…
