Faced with difficult questions people often tend to dismiss and marginalize dissent. Political and moral disagreements can be incredibly polarizing, and sometimes even dangerous. And whether it’s Christian fundamentalism, Islamic extremism, or militant atheism, religious dialogue remains tinted by arrogance, dogma, and ignorance. The world needs more people who are sensitive to reasons both for and against their beliefs, and are willing to consider the possibility that their political, religious and moral beliefs might be mistaken. The world needs more intellectual humility.

I really enjoyed this class. I'm going to try and put some of the things I learn in practice.
This course has given me an opportunity to reflect myself as well as others. Highly recommended if you are interested in communication.
This is a course that really rewards effort. It has caused me to engage in self reflection and to re-evaluate my own habits of thought.
After this class I can say that I dwell on aspects I learned every day. Among the best MOOCs available. This should be required at colleges and universities. Highly recommend.
