“Why God? Understanding Religion and Enacting Faith in a Plural World” A panel of world leaders convened at the University of Notre Dame on Sept. 22, 2005 in a forum that provided an academic cornerstone to the inauguration of Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., as the University's 17th president. Titled "Why God? Understanding Religion and Enacting Faith in a Plural World," the forum took place at 2 p.m. in the Joyce Center arena. Panelists for the forum included Cardinal Oscar Andrés Rodríguez Maradiaga, S.D.B., archbishop of Tegucigalpa, Honduras; John C. Danforth, former U.S. senator from Missouri and former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations; Naomi Chazan, professor of political science and African studies at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a former member of Israel's parliament, the Knesset, and a three-decade participant in the Israeli-Palestine peace process; and Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, founder and chief executive officer of the American Society for Muslim Advancement (ASMA) and imam of New York City’s largest mosque.
