Pope Francis said that Christians
and Muslims should see each other as partners for peace during a
visit to Naples on Friday.
"We are called on to dialogue with Muslims to build the
future of our societies and our cities," the pontiff said during
a speech at Pontifical Theological Faculty of Southern Italy.
"We are called on to consider them as partners to construct
peaceful coexistence with, even when there are disturbing events
caused by fanatics who are the enemies of dialogue, such as the
tragedy in Sri Lanka at Easter".
The pope was speaking at a conference on migration and
interreligious and ecumenical dialogue in the Mediterranean
area.
