This is the promotional introduction to a documentary entitled “IN GOD’S NAME”, a CBS special produced in partnership with French filmmakers Jules and Gedeon Naudet. The film explores some of the most complex questions of our time and does so via the intimate thoughts of 12 of the world’s most influential spiritual leaders. Listening to the challenges our religious leaders face within their own religions, despite their absolute dedication and constant discipline, it becomes clear that simply to love our neighbors and accept them as we would ourselves is humanity’s biggest and most difficult test. In the end, a planetary theology is without question an impossibility, but a universal experience is not. At film’s end, it becomes clear this, above all else, needs to be our goal.
