” “"It is by becoming aware of this stated Benedict XVI later on that the foundations can be laid for the building of a humanity at peace. But be aware of this: without the transcending foundation that is God, society risks becoming a mere mass of neighbours, it stops being a community of brothers and sisters, called to form a big family". The Director of the General National Police Inspectorate of the Vatican, Vincenzo Caso, in his tribute address to the Pope, on behalf of those present, recalled Benedict XVI’s apostolic journeys in Italy and abroad and the main subjects that he addressed in his speeches and teachings. Among other things, Vincenzo Caso stated: "The willingness of the Holy See to establish an effective dialogue with the Chinese civil authorities in order to find a solution to the problems that concern the Catholic community and the resumption of their contacts with some authoritative Muslim leaders, such as the King of Arabia and 138 Islamic intellectuals, are fundamental steps in the walk towards an objective understanding of other people’s religions and the sharing of religious experiences".” “
