As a person of faith, times like these try my soul, writes Omid Safi, a devout Muslim and respected Scholar of Islam, in his column today for On Being with Krista Tippett. Times like these are precisely when we need to turn to our faith. We turn inward, not because the answers are easy, but because not turning inward is unthinkable in moments of crisis. So let us begin, not with the cartoons at the center of the shootings at the office of Charlie Hebdo in Paris, but with the human beings. Let it always be about the human beings. Giving us 9 points to ponder, Omid Safi invites us to step forward and consider the broader context of whats at stake and how to process this horiffic news. onbeing.org/blog/let-the-charlie-hebdo-tragedy-always-be-about-the-human-beings-9-points-to-ponder/7193
