| The
aim of inter-religious dialogue is to promote peace and harmony
among the various religions. We are part of the Inter-Religious
Organisation in Singapore, which was founded in 1949. It is
well-known among inter-faith circles around the world.
The main
authority of the Organisation is vested in a Council made up of
representatives of nine religions: Hindu, Jewish, Zoroastrian,
Buddhist, Taoist, Christian, Muslim and Baha'i.
The IRO
conducts seminars and public talks at regular intervals for
increasing general awareness about the common beliefs that
underlie all our religions and how they can contribute to peace
and harmony.
As Catholics,
the Second Vatican to respect and learn from other religious
traditions, and to recognise the truths common to all faiths. |
