A Catholic Reflects on Buddhism...

A thoughtful piece by Sister Joan Chittister on interfaith relations, the view on Buddhism on the part of some of the Roman Catholic hierarchy, and the witness of compassionate living. It ran on the National Catholic Reporter website. Perhaps no more than a week after 9/11 I heard her speak at a national convention for Call to Action. A stirring speaker, quite a gifted preacher. Maybe a little heavy handed in this piece, but the nexus between Catholicism and Buddhism is a very important one to me.
