About This Video

Set to a song by The Judds, "Love Can Build a Bridge," this spot represents people with different points of view united by a common bond. They might get together on a regular basis to enjoy each other's similarities and appreciate each other's differences. The bond they share is also a fun one. The setting is outside in a park where this kind of meeting might be more likely to happen - and food is always a good thing to get together over.

Video Transcript

WOMAN: My father taught me a lot about life without ever saying a word. When I was a little girl my friends were all just like me. His never were.
JEW: Hello, Hello.
CHRISTIAN: Didn’t you bring them, George?
JEW: I thought you were going to.
CHRISTIAN: No, no. I brought them last time.
JEW: You are right (laugh) I forgot! All right, all right.
WOMAN: I used to wonder why would a Jew, a Christian, and a Muslim ever get together?
JEW/CHRISTIAN: It was him!
WOMAN: And then I got it, they had a lot more in common than donuts.
MUSIC: Love can build a bridge, love and only love, between your heart and mine.
ANNCR/SUPER: Friendship… Pass it on. A message from The Foundation for a Better Life.

I would like to share this video with many of my friends, who are Jewish, Christian, and Muslim! I tried to search it on youtube but I couldn't find it. I will try to email the link of this page to myself and test it....but it would be great if it were available and posted on youtube. It could increase the number of views to the tens or hundreds of thousands...a good idea for your visibility.

Beautiful Message. Difference in religion has been the cause of so much violence and wars. It should never be this way. But if you look beyond any differences, you see people with common ideas, personalities, and interests.
