This will be my third and probably last piece about dialogue between religions, and this time I would like to write about what Islam says about the field of the dialogue which some of our friends like Hulki Cevizoglu strongly oppose.

They have books (the Jewish Tanakh and the Christian New Testament) but they are falsified, according to Islamic belief."
