The LA Times reports that over Muslim clerics, leaders, and scholars have asked leaders from the Christian world, specifically Pope Benedict XVI to recognize the similarities between Islam and Christianity. They hope that this is a way to foster more understanding in the followers of both religions. This was a done in a public letter, and has been so far received well by the Christian community.
How great is this!!!! This is the best news I've heard yet. Honestly, the difficulties between the two worlds stem from ignorance and misunderstanding. I just hope that this won't be ignored, and that both sides take this seriously. Because this is honestly such an amazing connection.
