Prayer for Interfaith Meetings
God of all creation,
we stand in awe before You,
impelled by visions of the harmony of humanity.
We are children of many traditions –
inheritors of shared wisdom and tragic misunderstandings,
of proud hopes and humble successes.

Cross-Cultural Management
Komunikasi dan Manajemen Lintas Budaya
Semboyan Bhinneka Tunggal Ika memiliki dua elemen yaitu perbedaan dan kesatuan. Jangan kita menafikan perbedaan dengan hidup dalam ilusi bahwa terdapat satu budaya Indonesia, tetapi let’s cherish and manage the differences. Rule of thumb setiap kali kita berinteraksi dengan budaya-budaya yang berbeda adalah: it’s not right, it’s not wrong, it’s just different.

Potential Production of Second Generation Biofuels
Indonesia has a huge potential to produce second generation biofuel that can be produced from waste, residue, and non-crop plants. Second generation biofuel does not compete with sugarcane, corn, wheat, palmoil, or other plants that require large area of land such as jatropha.

Bahan Bakar Alternatif Potensi Produksi “Biofuel” Generasi II
Indonesia memiliki potensi besar untuk memproduksi generasi kedua biofuel yang dapat dihasilkan dari limbah, residu, serta tanaman nonpangan. Generasi kedua biofuel ini tidak "memakan" tanaman tebu, jagung, kedelai, minyak sawit, ataupun bahan baku yang membutuhkan area lahan seperti biji jarak pagar.

Interfaith Dialogue
Nostra Aetate
Nostra Aetate is a groundbreaking document of its time that spearheaded true interfaith dialogs from the Church in the 20th century. Explicit references are made to other religions, acknowledgment of past history, but most of all sincere intention to move forward as one humanity - beyond religious boundaries.

Lecture of His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI
Faith, Reason and the University -Memories and Reflections
"...While we rejoice in the new possibilities open to humanity, we also see the dangers arising from these possibilities and we must ask ourselves how we can overcome them. We will succeed in doing so only if reason and faith come together in a new way, if we overcome the self-imposed limitation of reason to the empirically verifiable, and if we once more disclose its vast horizons. In this sense theology rightly belongs in the university and within the wide-ranging dialogue of sciences, not merely as a historical discipline and one of the human sciences, but precisely as theology, as inquiry into the rationality of faith."

Kontroversi Ceramah Paus Benediktus XVI
Fakta dibalik Berita
Tulisan ini sama sekali tidak dimaksudkan untuk membela Paus Benediktus XVI terkait pemberitaan akhir-akhir ini tentang pernyataan beliau yang katanya kontroversial tentang Islam dan jihad. Tulisan ini juga tidak untuk membela otoritas Vatikan ataupun Gereja Katolik. Maksud dari tulisan ini sebenarnya sederhana, ingin mengajak publik Indonesia untuk berpikir sehat dan kritis dalam menarik kesimpulan dan kemudian menyikapi suatu berita.
