I am Christian married to Muslim, I wish to join moderates from all sides to press for peace without violence. Have you read the book “Peace is the Way” by Deepak Chopra. It is a guide for peace, he states he set the spark for peace but that the flame must be ignited by populations of people setting the stage.
