Gulf News reports on a bit of interfaith fellowship:
A team of Christian priests thrashed a group of imams 12-1 to win Germany's first football cup between religious leaders yesterday, but it was all hugs and smiles after the match to promote tolerance. "We have tried for such a long time to strengthen the contact between the three faiths: Judaism, Christianity and Islam," said Imam Taha, the Muslim squad captain. "I think we can say we have achieved that today." Around 100 spectators cheered and waved banners during the seven-a-side match, played under the eagle eyes of two Jewish linesmen one month before the World Cup kicks off in Germany.Even simple things like this can improve understanding as people get to know each other and work together.
