The Dialogue Of Everyday Lives
Promotion of peace
Not supporting violence or anything that could harm a relationship between one another.
Solidarity
Supporting and having similar common interests in a particular group.
Tolerance vs Acceptance
Tolerance; Allowing yourself to hear other opinions and thoughts.
Even though the professor wasn't very open minded, he was still opened to hearing Josh's lectures everyday.
Acceptance; Learning and understanding (accepting) others opinions and thoughts.
Dialogue
Being open minded/cooperative towards any religion/culture/beliefs.
New evangelization
Helping anyone in need that has sinned in the past, similar to a baptism.
Josh helped his professor and Martin convert to Christianity.
Ground rules for living
1. Respect the faith and religion of others
2. There is no neutral stance
There isn't just one opinion, Josh showed that by proving his teacher wrong.
3. The truth of your own religion
Josh was defending his religion by presenting everyday before class, trying and convince his professor to be more open minded and believe in God. He would make a presentation and find facts about Christianity to be more connected to his beliefs and prove why religion is important.
4. Accept the importance of religion
In the movie "God is not dead" I noticed how disrespectful and close minded the professor was by not allowing religion in his classroom and telling his students to sign the forms agreeing to his opinion.
