Religious Fundamentalism is not new. It is not a 20th century phenomenon, but has arguably been present in some form for centuries. Neither is fundamentalism limited to a specific religion. The difference in the 21st century is the pervasive availability of media and technology to spread extremist interpretations and ideologies directly to vulnerable groups. However, the question lies in this: What is fundamentalism, and how to counter it?
Join us in a discussion to examine what can be done to counter such fundamentalism from various perspectives of different mainstream religions. For more information, please visit https://www.kmspks.org/activities/dharma/countering-fundamentalism-perspectives-from-buddhism-and-other-religions/
