‘A Multi Faith Easter’ – Length 5:25
Bill shows us how different religions and faiths can get on over the Christian holy time of Easter. On Easter Saturday the Buddhists serve lunch at the Exodus Loaves & Fishes free restaurant. That night, a Muslim group serves dinner from the Exodus free food van. On Easter Sunday, a Jewish community serves lunch at the Loaves & Fishes.
“Religion should unite all hearts and cause wars and disputes to vanish from the face of the earth, give birth to spirituality, and bring life and light to each heart. If religion becomes a cause of dislike, hatred and division, it were better to be without it, and to withdraw from such a religion would be a truly religious act. For it is clear that the purpose of a remedy is to cure; but if the remedy should only aggravate the complaint it had better be left alone. Any religion which is not a cause of love and unity is no religion”
– ‘Abdu’l-Bahá – Eldest son of Bahá’u’lláh, the founder of the Bahá’í Faith
