Does humanity, at its core, share common values – ones that can form the basis of peaceful co-existence for people from different parts of the world belonging to different religions? Do we really understand each other’s perspectives?

These questions have never been more important than they are now, as two societies stare at each other across an abyss that threatens to engulf us all.
