“Every faith uses some kind of tool to understand itself better. Faith seeks understanding. The Western tradition has used philosophy to understand the truths of the faith and you come up with theology. Where as, Islam at a certain point said: we'll use law. There are these four major, developed schools of Islamic jurisprudence.” KindSaidPhilosophyUseSchoolLawUsedCertainUnderstandingFourMajorsTraditionToolsIslamWesternCome UpTheologyIslamicJurisprudence Author:Francis George
“Interest in religion is not necessarily interest in God. Religion in public life means a set of ideas, an ideology that has certain positions. Religion is then one more ideology among others. Religion is about God. Religion begins with a relationship to God, not a relationship to an idea. It is God who is an actor, not just individuals who have certain beliefs who are actors. God is an actor.” MeanIdeasCertainActorsIndividualBeliefInterestPositionIdeologyPublic LifeLife Means Author:Francis George
