Rather, it is to acknowledge, first, that there is no ecclesial vacuum outside the Catholic Church, and, second, that the present state of visible ecclesial division adversely affects the ability of the Catholic Church "to express in actual life her full catholicity in all her bearings."

The Pope's negative observations about Islam and the global Muslim anger in response to it reveal a growing gulf of misunderstanding between the Muslim and the Westem world. As long as each religious tradition is absolute in its conception of the truth, religion will continue to play a negative role in politics. There is a basic universal problem in religious education. Religion is imparted to children as a frozen product; God is conveyed as a private possession and the printed word is treated as a final truth.
