HOPEFULLY, THIS COULD BE A MAJOR TURNING POINT FOR RELIGION!!
[see "SGI Charter" through Google, especially:
7 SGI shall, based on the Buddhist spirit of tolerance, respect other religions, engage in dialogue and work together with them toward the resolution of fundamental issues concerning humanityÂ
Today Amma, Pope Francis, and other leaders of the world's religions made history. They came together in one voice to declare that modern slavery is a crime against humanity. They called on all people, irrespective of gender, faith and culture, to work together to eradicate human trafficking and all other forms of slavery from the face of the earth by 2020.‪#‎EndSlavery‬

Hopefully people will listen to them. I would love to live in a world where religion, race, or whatever else is used to separate people would just be considered a difference. Especially if injustice would be fought and not overlooked. Hopefully it's the beginning of something great and not just an isolated event. Hoping for the best so everyone can smile smile smile Katie
