Please read the document posted under the "A Common Word" file for this assignment. You only need to read through page 74... I included the footnotes there at the end in case you wanted to follow up on any of them

1. What do you think is the thesis or main goal of this document?

2. Towards the end of the document, it explains that the task of finding common ground is not simply an exercise for religious leaders and scholars to engage in so that they aren't bored. Why do the authors of the document think this task is so important for this world?

3. Love of neighbor is obviously critical in this document. Explain how this love is about more than empathy/sympathy for both Muslims and Christians, according to this document.

4. Evaluate (in other words, say whether you agree and why/why not) the following claim based on your reading of the document: "This document does not ignore that there are significant differences between religious traditions, but succeeds at finding common ground through a close analysis of the scriptures of each tradition."

5. How does the document use the scriptures of these 2 traditions to argue that they should not view each other as enemies?
