 PEN American Center - Faith & Reason
Today, faith and reason seem increasingly estranged across the globe, as religions vie against science, fundamentalists, post-modernists and geopolitical realists all question the liberal humanist creeds of democracy, equality and human rights, and old and new orthodoxies contend with one another.
As witnesses to the truths of the heart as well as masters of the languages through which all reasoning must ultimately be rendered, writers can help to heal the breach between faith’s passion and reason’s clarity.
By convening a truly global group of authors to talk about the problem of faith and reason in a number of its many forms, PEN World Voices seeks to deepen and broaden the contemporary discussion of one of the central dichotomies of our time.

Therefore, theoretically, Ahmadis could be sentenced to death for simply professing their faith.

Perhaps it was such systemic misogyny, ensconced in the civil laws of her native land, that gave rise to the "breach of faith" committed by O'Connor on "Saturday Night Live."

A breach of faith by Taiwan could have been responsible for Washington's decision to limit President Chen Shui-bian's planned transit stops in the United States during his latest Latin American visit, an American expert in cross-Taiwan Strait issues said Wednesday.
Alan Romberg, director of East Asian studies at the Henry L. Stimson Center, said he does not think the decision was taken to satisfy Chinese President Hu Jintao or in response to Beijing's threats, as some commentators in Taiwan have suggested.
While Chen said in his inaugural address that sensitive issues regarding national territory and sovereignty and the subject of unification and independence would be excluded from his proposed constitutional re-engineering effort, the president now says that he "does not have the right" to prohibit the expression of people's opinions, Romberg pointed out.
