OSHER 915 - Focus on Islam: Part II

We seem to live in a world of fear of the unknown. Please join Rev. Janda in learning more about Islam. Muslims are connected to the other People of the Book - Jews and Christians - and this class will attempt to weed out the misconceptions that have arisen in our recent history. We will also explore the different groups, such as the Taliban and ISIL, that use their religion to promote violence. My hope is that we will find more common ground uniting us, rather than the negative things that divide us in the world today.
