Actually, I don't think that it's dialogue that's going to guarantee a peaceful coexistence, but a couple of bright people who will redefine their faith on a mass scale... and will lead to a movement of brainwashing people to be more tolerant. It's impossible to have a "dialogue" with an average Mary that has had years of pumping information into her had by the whole gang.

Qdemir,

Did you ever ask Prof Notten of yours whether or not Catholic Pope recognises Islam as a divine religion and Muhammad as a prophet of the same god who also sent Jesus on an earlier mission?

I am afraid Pope will reply negative to both questions.

What then is this crap about the so called dialog?

Tell us what your real purpose is !

i think a real peace or tolerance only possible by pass to universalism from to localness.And seems this wonderfull globe needs more common universal values and stronger international organizations for set a lasting peace,and i think thats road pass on a common international education,more communication and less prejudices.beside them things start the best schools (families) of world,for that reason goverments have to work harder to creat more happy and more educated families.İ believe that things would be easier and better if we can teach to young generations real value of universalism by don't deny goodness of local values..its always better to watch a plain from a high hill,if we trust our eyes or our owns more then enough i think we would miss so planty goodness which we never aware of em
