Parliament Of The World's Religions To Host 2015 Conference In Salt Lake City

Antonia Blumberg
The Council for a Parliament of the World's Religions has news it hopes will excite interfaith advocates and religious activists around the world.

The Parliament will host its 2015 conference in Salt Lake City, the first time the Parliament has met in the United States for 22 years.

"America is the home base of the interfaith movement and it's about time the Parliament come back home," Parliament Chair Imam Abdul Malik Mujahid said in an announcement.

But the article is clear about it being there. What surprised me were the comments about the openness of the LDS to hold it there. I was under the impression that they were tone deaf and stoic about everything.

"We feel that there is extraordinary openness and desire on the part of the LDS church to be a part of the multi-religious movement," Mujahid said. "We have been very thankful for their openness and hospitality."

Your working too late to keep track of NY politics wasn't a factor.
