Young Christians study Islam
National Catholic Reporter, Feb 8, 2008
JAKARTA -- The Wahid Institute, founded by former president Abdurrahman Wahid, and the Crisis Center of the Christian Church of Indonesia have developed a course to teach Christian youths about Islam and pluralism.
The course runs over four Friday evenings. The inaugural class was Jan. 18 and about 30 students, writers, broadcasters and social activists attended. The course ends with a three-day live-in program in a pesantren, or Islamic boarding school.
Course coordinator Moqsith Ghazali said the curriculum was set up in consultation with the Protestant School of Theology and the Jesuit-run Driyarkara School of Philosophy.
