Students and staff of different religious background gathered and exchanged views on Monday during the Interfaith Dialogue in Trinity’s Fiesta Room.
The 18 participants, representing Islam, Judaism, Catholicism, Protestant Christianity and agnosticism, discussed a wide range of topics from different beliefs to personal religious experiences and current social issues.
Ruth Lavenda, a sophomore and member of the Jewish Student Association, was a part of a stimulating conversation concerning views toward the LGBT community in the Christian church. To her, the very question was brought up because people “did not know what to think because here was a situation where the view of Christianity was being challenged.”
