Faithbook: an interfaith initiative on Facebook

June 6, 2008

The Times of London reports the launch of Faithbook, an Interfaith social networking initiative by the British Movement for Reform Judaism, supported by The Muslim Institute.

Ghayasuddin Siddiqui, director of the Muslim Institute, said that the group would be a success regardless of the differences between the major faiths. He added: “Irrespective of whatever cultural baggage we carry, racial background or faith that we follow, we have to recognise that our creator is the same whatever we call him.”

The site itself says that “Faithbook is where we harness the positive power of the net, the different religions’ sacred texts or ‘faith books,’ to share, learn and build inter faith relationships.”
