Workshops, a people-to- people session and two addi- tional addresses by the speakers rounded out the day. Rev Oscar Ice, of the Greater Detroit Interfaith Round Table which sponsored the event, said that about 160 dif- ferent people attended the various sessions. They includ- ed about 90 Christians, 25 Jews, 25 Muslims and two Bahais. No angry exchanges mar- red the interfaith conference. At last year's symposium, a shouting match broke out bet- ween Jews and Muslims at a workshop on the effects of terrorism. Rev. Ice praised the will- ingness this year of the religions' representatives to show the "stresses and strains" within their com- munities. "My observation is that it's very hard for the Muslims to do. There is a tendency to close ranks and present a unified voice. I think the Jewish community closes ranks in the same way." At lunch, participants chat- ted informally. At one table, Jews and Muslims discussed having Christmas trees in their houses and a Christian described his visits to Israel. All seemed interested in in- creasing their understanding of Islam, a topic elicited by Imam Shabazz's morning address. Why did the participants at- tend the symposium? "We're here to learn," said Ruth Broder. "What we're learning here is how to share what we have in common." "I'm glad I came because I've always felt that dif- ferences persist mostly out of misunderstanding," Ron Souweidan commented. "While [the conference] offers a ray of hope, it's kind of depressing to think that such efforts aren't done on a grand scale." "I've been doing this for years," said Robert Amberg. "You learn something dif- ferent every time."
