Greetings from the Global Ethic
Foundation
 This
website of the exhibition World Religions – Universal
Peace – Global Ethic invites
you to explore the fascinating world of the religions so that
you can have a better understanding of the importance of their
ethical messages for our present-day society.
People
of all religions know far too little about one another; above
all they know far too little about what all the religious and
ethical traditions have in common. This website tries to contribute
towards changing that.
It
does not just set out to provide information about religions in
an objective and detached way. Nor, however, does it engage in
mission on behalf of one religion or another, or even a new world
religion. Rather, it aims to provide orientation and to challenge
you to think again about the importance of the great religions
for humankind.
So
let me invite you to the website, led on by my vision of hope:
No
peace among the nations
... .without peace among the religions.
No
peace among the religions
... .without
dialogue between the religions.
No dialogue between the religions
.. ..without
global ethical standards.
No survival of our globe
......without
a global ethic.
I
am grateful to all who have made this possible.
