Budapest Interfaith Dialogue Highlights Ethics, Faith and Social Media
Discussion hosted at the Church of Scientology in Budapest explored online hate, moral responsibility and how faith communities can regain credibility through conduct, with themes that echo principles found in The Way to Happiness
Brussels, Belgium, 20th Mar 2026 — In a period marked by online hostility, polarized debate and growing concern over the social effects of digital communication, a March 11 interfaith roundtable hosted at the Church of Scientology Budapest examined whether people of faith can be expected to uphold a higher moral standard in the digital sphere and how religion can once again become meaningful, credible and even attractive in the 21st century.
Held as the 11th Interfaith Dialogue under the title “A Vision in an Age of Hate: How Can We Make Faith Cool Again?”, the event brought together theologians, clergy, church leaders and religious thinkers for a discussion that moved beyond formal doctrine and focused on something more immediate: conduct. In particular, participants considered how believers respond to anger, provocation and division in an environment where social media algorithms often amplify extremes rather than reflection.
One of the opening references was to a recent online initiative by a Catholic professor who called on believers to stand against hate speech and offer a better example in public discourse. That reference set the tone for the evening’s central question: whether faith should be visible not only in ritual or identity, but in the way people communicate, disagree and exercise restraint in difficult public conversations.
Participants agreed that social media has created moral pressures and behavioral temptations that previous generations did not have to navigate in the same way. One Catholic theologian noted that modern societies do not always share a common moral foundation, even though freedom of expression remains a fundamental value. In that context, he used the image of “gardening” to describe personal responsibility online: individuals should moderate their own digital space, remove what is destructive and refuse to cultivate environments where contempt and aggression flourish unchecked.
A religious scholar and philosopher added that the architecture of social media often works against consensus, since algorithms tend to reward emotional intensity and reinforce echo chambers. In such an environment, he suggested, religion could still play a constructive role as a moral community capable of countering radicalization, reducing hostility and encouraging a more human response to disagreement.
The Scientology minister participating in the discussion reportedly stressed that not all hatred should be understood as proof of an inherently bad person. In many cases, he suggested, bitterness, disappointment and accumulated painful experiences are what speak through hostile behavior. From that perspective, he argued, spiritual understanding should help people rise above immediate reaction and take responsibility for the tone and consequences of their actions, especially in digital environments where harmful language can spread rapidly and widely.
While the Budapest event was not specifically centered on The Way to Happiness, the concepts discussed during the evening closely reflect several of the ethical principles set out in that text, written by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. Described on its official website as a nonreligious moral code made up of 21 precepts for better living, The Way to Happiness includes such principles as “Set a Good Example,” “Seek To Live With The Truth,” and “Respect the Religious Beliefs of Others.” These ideas resonate clearly with the concerns raised in Budapest: truthfulness in public speech, restraint in conflict, and respect across religious and ideological lines.
This distinction is important. The significance of the Budapest dialogue lies not in presenting The Way to Happiness as the formal theme of the event, but in showing how the ethical concerns voiced by participants can be understood through a framework long promoted by Scientology in its moral and social outreach. In that sense, the discussion illustrated a broader interfaith reality in Europe today: communities with different beliefs can still find common ground in practical ethics, peaceful coexistence and the importance of example.
The second major theme of the evening concerned the changing role of religion in contemporary society. Participants reportedly observed that although formal religiosity has declined in parts of Western Europe, individual spiritual searching remains strong. The issue, then, is not simply whether religion can become fashionable again, but whether it can show itself to be morally serious, socially useful and capable of speaking in language people recognize as authentic.
One theologian reportedly argued that religious communities must learn to communicate differently depending on the audience, using forms of language that can reach both intellectual circles and ordinary readers. Another participant emphasized common ground, universal love and practical cooperation among churches, rather than mutual condemnation. The Scientology contribution to the discussion reportedly aligned with that view, stressing that the most persuasive witness religion can offer today is not argument alone, but visible action: demonstrating that people of different faiths are capable of working together in peace while respecting one another.
That emphasis also corresponds with how the Church of Scientology Budapest presents itself locally: not only as a place where Scientologists gather for worship and religious services, but as a community space intended to foster dialogue and cooperation. Situated at Váci út 169 in Budapest, the church has served as a venue for events and encounters involving broader civic and interfaith participation.
Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, said: “The Budapest dialogue reflects a challenge facing all European societies: how to preserve dignity, truth and mutual respect in spaces that often reward the opposite. What emerged from the discussion is that ethical conduct still matters deeply. When people choose responsibility over reaction, and respect over contempt, they strengthen not only their own communities but the civic culture on which peaceful coexistence depends.”
What emerged from the March 11 roundtable was a message extending well beyond one denomination. If faith is to regain credibility in a digital age, participants suggested, it will do so not through slogans or confrontation, but through conduct: through honesty, self-restraint, respectful dialogue and what several speakers described, in different ways, as love expressed in action. In that respect, the Budapest event offered a practical reminder that religion remains socially relevant when it helps people live together more decently, even amid disagreement.
The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across Europe with a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.

Post Oak Group, recently named the Best Middle-Market Investment Bank in Texas, is expanding its cross-border M&A capabilities to meet this demand, reinforcing its position as a premier advisor to founders, shareholders, and institutional investors pursuing international transactions.
Houston, Texas, United States, 21st Apr 2026 – As middle-market companies increasingly look beyond U.S. borders for growth, strategic partnerships, and capital, the demand for investment banks equipped to navigate cross-border complexity has never been greater. Post Oak Group, recently named the Best Middle-Market Investment Bank in Texas, is expanding its cross-border M&A capabilities to meet this demand, reinforcing its position as a premier advisor to founders, shareholders, and institutional investors pursuing international transactions.
The firm’s cross-border platform is built to address the unique challenges of international dealmaking: differing regulatory frameworks, currency exposure, tax structuring, cultural nuances in negotiation, and the coordination of buyers, investors, and counsel across multiple jurisdictions. With a track record spanning 12 countries and more than $82 billion in completed transactions, Post Oak Group has developed an execution framework designed specifically for the middle market, one that delivers institutional-grade advisory without the bureaucracy and inefficiency often associated with larger global banks.
A Differentiated Approach to International Dealmaking
Middle-market companies pursuing cross-border transactions have historically faced a difficult choice: engage a bulge-bracket bank where their deal risks being deprioritized, or work with a regional advisor lacking true international reach. Post Oak Group was built to eliminate that tradeoff.
“Middle-market founders and shareholders deserve the same caliber of cross-border execution that larger companies receive from global banks,” said Alex Treistman, Managing Partner of the Capital Markets practice at Post Oak Group. “Our platform is designed to deliver that level of sophistication while maintaining the senior-led attention and agility that defines how we operate.”
The firm’s recognition as the Best Middle-Market Investment Bank in Texas reflects this differentiated positioning, a testament to the firm’s ability to combine institutional-grade execution with the responsiveness and customization that middle-market clients require.
Senior-Led Execution Across Every Engagement
A defining feature of Post Oak Group’s cross-border model is the direct involvement of senior bankers throughout the lifecycle of every transaction. The firm’s leadership team brings more than 250 years of combined experience across capital markets, mergers and acquisitions, and a wide range of industry specializations.
Rather than delegating execution to junior staff once a mandate is won, a common dynamic at larger institutions, Post Oak Group’s senior professionals remain deeply engaged from initial strategy through closing. This partner-led model is particularly critical in cross-border engagements, where judgment, relationships, and real-time decision-making often determine the outcome of a transaction.
Global Reach, Integrated Platform
Post Oak Group operates a fully integrated investment banking platform spanning capital markets and M&A advisory, with approximately 300 professionals across advisory, execution, research, operations, and support functions. This integration allows the firm to seamlessly coordinate capital raises, recapitalizations, and buy-side or sell-side M&A mandates across jurisdictions, a capability that is increasingly important as middle-market companies pursue hybrid transactions combining capital infusion with strategic partnership or acquisition.
The firm’s international reach spans North America, Europe, Australia, Latin America, and select markets in Asia, supported by long-standing relationships with institutional investors, family offices, strategic acquirers, and private equity sponsors across the globe.
Meeting a Growing Need in the Middle Market
Cross-border M&A activity in the middle market has accelerated meaningfully in recent years, driven by supply chain realignment, the globalization of founder-owned businesses, and increased appetite from international strategic acquirers and institutional investors for U.S.-based middle-market assets. Post Oak Group’s expansion of its cross-border capabilities is designed to meet this demand head-on.
About Post Oak Group
Post Oak Group is a leading middle-market investment bank headquartered in Houston, Texas, recently recognized as the Best Middle-Market Investment Bank in Texas. The firm operates a fully integrated platform spanning capital markets and M&A advisory, with a track record of more than $82 billion in transactions across 12 countries. Post Oak Group serves founders, shareholders, and institutional investors through senior-led, partner-driven engagements designed to deliver institutional-grade execution with boutique-level attention.
