Message

People recognize the world through language. I study the misunderstandings and conflicts of people of different cultures and religions by analyzing the language they use. I have published papers analyzing the discourse of Christians, Muslims, and Buddhists from different parts of the world. My current research involves a comparison of Christian mystical language and Buddhist language.
