Wright says monotheism was created as an expression of intolerance among nations, grounded in a perception of enmity. However, he says all religions (including monotheistic faiths) can adapt constructively to a non-zero-sum environment, gaining the tolerance that monotheism lacked in its onset. This Carnegie Council event took place on May 13, 2010. For complete video, audio, and transcript, go to: http://www.cceia.org
