- Could religious education become part of public education?
- If you start learning about other faith traditions, will you be tempted to leave the faith of your upbringing?
- Should an interfaith family adorn their home with a cross if it is a symbol of love and acceptance for the Christian partner and a symbol of fear and aversion for the Jewish partner?
- The differences between iconography and idolatry;
and MUCH MORE!!
