Blair is planning a series of centers in major world capitals to promote inter-faith dialogue and highlight common essentials between the Abrahamic faiths

Augu. 2, 2008: KUALA LUMPUR - Former British prime minister Tony Blair is planning a series of centers in major world capitals to promote inter-faith dialogue and highlight common essentials between the Abrahamic faiths. “I think we start with one (first),” Blair told the Bernama news agency in an interview on Saturday, August 2, referring to the one to open in central London soon. The proposed Abraham House will bring together followers of the major religions to discuss means of promoting understanding between different faiths. It will also feature a standing exhibition and museum for members of the Abrahamic faiths; Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Blair, who is on his first visit to Malaysia to give a lecture on the Rule of Law at the 22nd Sultan Azlan Shah Law Lecture, said the House will be a place for followers of different faiths to discover their commonalties and tackle their differences. “That’s the beginning and in time I think it would be good to have such centers in all the main places, including in this part of Asia as well,” he said. The Abraham Houses are part of efforts by the Blair Faith Foundation to promote inter-faith understanding. Launched in May, the foundation says it aims to promote respect, friendship and understanding between the major religious faiths. It also wants to make the case for faith as a force for good and encourage inter-faith initiatives to tackle global poverty and conflict. A practicing former Anglican, Blair converted to the Roman Catholic Church, to which his wife, Cherie, belongs. He has admitted that religion was of major influence during his decade in power. His close friends described him as a very devout Christian, who takes a Bible with him wherever he goes.

·Killer Diseases: Blair said his foundation is also rallying followers of all faiths to fight killer diseases, such as malaria, in poor countries. “In Sub-Saharan Africa, 40 percent of them are Muslims. So you’ve got Christian and Muslim children dying,” he said. ‘And in a lot of these African countries, the health clinics are many, many miles from where the people live. “But actually each of these villagers or towns who have a church or a mosque. And so what we want to do is try and use the religious centers as distribution centers for people of different faiths and not just treating Christian people.” Blair has launched a ten-week campaign to fund one million anti-malaria beds. “Will you join those who are creating multi-faith events and raise awareness for malaria prevention,” Blair said in a statement on the foundation website.“I’d like to urge you to become an example of the good that faith can do in the world.”
