Re: General Thoughts: Studies of Religion I
I think the first MC will be highly debated. Mutual understanding is a characteristic of Ecumenism, but it's a Catholic interpretation. The Uniting Church (an ecumenical movement) is characterised by their unification. I can't see it to be social justice; that's not what ecumenism is. I think it depends on your understanding of "unification" and what constitutes "unification" in a religious context, and similarly, which denomination or political definition would you take the definition from.
