“The future of the world depends on peace between Muslims and Christians”

Last October, 14th 138 prominent Muslim scholars sent a letter to Pope Benedict XVI and other Christian leaders, in wich they said that finding common ground between the world’s biggest two religions was not “simply a matter for polite ecumenical dialogue”.

The letter, which is entitled “A Common Word between Us and You”, says: “Muslims and Christians together make up well over half of the world's population. Without peace and justice between these two religious communities, there can be no meaningful peace in the world. The future of the world depends on peace between Muslims and Christians”.
