The present global world is characterized by pluralism: everywherepeople of different religions, convictions, races and cultures are living together. Dialogue is necessary to build together a good society. Dialogue is a difficult process, because somebody needs to be open to others but at the same time needs to have aclear commitment with his/her own conviction. Dialogue as communication meansthat people have to be aware of their private limits and of their cultural and religiousdifferences, which separate them. This awareness is the base to respect one another, to search ways to understand one another and to build a good society. From thisviewpoint the relation between dialogue and proclamation and the question whetherpeople will be saved by God is reflected.
