The common ground we share is the ground of hopeful believing. It is a territory that we explore together with no intention to convert or condemn. We are committed to do more than tolerant forbearance, rejecting the notion that any one of us has the position of privilege such tolerance implies. In doing so, we trust, each in our own way, that our burgeoning relationships with one another build rather than damage the capacity to remain faithful to our own traditions.
