"Symposium on religious harmony" in Jordan. Only two religions, though.

Ammon News reports that Prince El Hassan bin Talal of Jordan sponsored a symposium on religious tolerance at the University of Jordan. The speakers spoke about what unites religions, how religions can be used to solve world problems like poverty.

As far as I can tell, only two religions are represented in this symposium - Islam and Christianity.

Well, it is true that there are no Jews in Jordan, so I guess it was hard for them to find anyone Jewish to attend.
