Muslim Rage and Christian Arrogance: A Time for Reason, Repentance and Dialogue

By Raulston B. Nembhard and Ralston B. Nembhard

The book assesses the subject of dialogue between Christians and Muslims within the context of the terrorist attack on America on September 11, 2001. It evaluates the rage in Islam, why America is hated around the world and fundamental Christian arrogance that can feed hostility between adherents of the two religions.For there to be dialogue each religion must accept that they have done wrong in the name of God; that often they have not been forces for good but for instability and hostility in the world. Dialogue is imperative, but it begins with a confession of what has gone wrong in both religions, a willingness to repent and a desire to engage each other in practical dialogue for the betterment of humankind.The book sets out an agenda for dialogue which is seen as dialogue "from below" as opposed to dialogue "from above." It starts with a response to situations at the community level and not in the cloistered halls of academia or with officialdom in both religions. Hopefully this kind of dialogue will enhance understanding among the adherents of both faiths as they open themselves to the rich diversity of religious consciousness.
