Verbum Domini - Pope Benedict XVI
Dialogue and religious freedom
All the same, dialogue would not prove fruitful unless it included authentic respect for each person and the ability of all freely to practice their religion. Hence the Synod, while encouraging cooperation between the followers of the different religions, also pointed out “the need for the freedom to profess one’s religion, privately and publicly, and freedom of conscience to be effectively guaranteed to all believers”:[381] indeed, “respect and dialogue require reciprocity in all spheres, especially in that which concerns basic freedoms, more particularly religious freedom. Such respect and dialogue foster peace and understanding between peoples”.[382]
