The Sheen Center for Thought and Culture in Lower Manhattan hosted the popular WABC Radio Sunday morning talk show, “The Rev and The Rabbi,” live and in-person on Tuesday evening featuring special guest Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

Reverend A.R. Bernard, Rabbi Joseph Potasnik, and Cardinal Dolan are great friends and members of the Commission of Religious Leaders in New York.

The audience was treated to a discussion on good and evil, how inter-religious dialogue has come a long way, especially since the Second Vatican Council, and how their respective religious communities unite when any of the others are attacked.

With the Presidential Election just two weeks away, they talked about the importance of participating in civic life while not putting your absolute trust in anyone or anything except God.
