PUBLIC LECTURE: "On Jesus, Prophet of Islam - What They Don't Talk About." Delivered at the Islamic Center of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA on December 3

 

Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl presents the Islamic, Christian and historical record of Jesus, Prophet of God, contrasting early reports of the message of Jesus from later reports, which present a "Romanized Christianity," which has carried to the present day. This "Romanized Christianity" characterized a pacifist Jesus, in stark contrast to the earlier reports where the message of Jesus was extremely critical of wealth, privilege, power and classicism, and indifference to the poor and underprivileged, much like the condition of our times today. A frank and eye-opening talk, and powerful Q&A afterwards.
