July 12, Indy Rotary Welcomes Don Knebel, President, Center for Interfaith Cooperation
What Truth Can Set Us Free?
Almost every day brings a new report of violence and discrimination based on a person’s religious beliefs. Powerful voices have argued that the world would be better off if religious beliefs simply disappeared. But religious beliefs will not disappear, at least any time soon. Instead, what is needed is a better way to understand and deal with religious differences. This presentation, by the founding Board Chair of the Center for Interfaith Cooperation, will look at how to view the religious beliefs of others in ways that encourage respect and not fear and hatred.
Donald E. (Don) Knebel earned a degree in electrical engineering from Purdue and a law degree from Harvard. Don retired from Barnes & Thornburg at the end of 2013 after 39 years as an intellectual property litigator. He now serves as Adjunct Professor and Senior Advisor at the Center for Intellectual Property Research at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law, teaching antitrust law and patent litigation. Since September 2015, he has served as Interim Executive Director of the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre, on whose Board he has served since 1986.
