Is This a Religious War? A Christian and Muslim Discussion
Is the war with Iran a political conflict—or is it being framed as a religious one? Across media, sermons, and political rhetoric, many voices on both sides are invoking religious language, prophecy, and theology.
In this video, I’m joined by two respected scholars to explore the religious dimensions of the conflict: Dr. Ali Ataie, a Sunni Muslim professor and scholar of comparative theology and biblical studies, and Dr. Luis Dizon, a Christian scholar and expert on early Islamic views of the Bible. Together, we discuss how religion is being used, interpreted, and sometimes misunderstood in the conversation about the Iran war.
