Wall Street Dialogues February 15, 2012

Pundits from liberal to conservative host conversations on the moral and ethical dilemmas pushed to the forefront by the Occupy Wall Street movement in Wall Street Dialogues on Wednesdays at 1:05 PM at Trinity Church in lower Manhattan, now extended through February 15. Each speaker challenges the audience with provocative questions such as “Would Jesus pay taxes?” and “What are the moral values of capitalism?” Talks are webcast live at www.trinitywallstreet.org with opportunities for online viewer participation.

On February 15, Dr. Samir Selmanovic of Faith House Manhattan, Dr. Michael Merrill of Van Arsdale Jr. Center for Labor Studies, and Carolyn Klaasen of Union Theological Seminary and Protest Chaplains will consider "Breaking Good: Why and How an Occupied Wall Street Could Join the Occupation?"

Wall Street Dialogues are presented by Trinity Institute (TI), a continuing education program founded in 1967 as an outreach of Trinity Wall Street, an Episcopal parish. Recent conferences include God’s Unfinished Future; Religion and Violence: An Interfaith Dialogue; Radical Abundance: A Theology of Sustainability; and Building an Ethical Economy: Theology and the Marketplace.
