The Taliban have accused the Shelter Now International workers of preaching Christianity in the country, an offence for which the death penalty can be invoked. Also on the programme: the leader of Britain's Jews, Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, on why he believes globalisation is making the world less tolerant of difference; in Nepal, high-caste Hindus join their lower caste counterparts for prayers at a temple.
