"Respect the beliefs of other people, so your faith remains strong."

"Islam and Christianity do not contradict each other, but they meet in high values to achieve significant benefits for the world."

"Honest and sincere people contribute in guaranteeing conviviality, freedom and stability. Religious teachings help in promoting and reinforcing ethics, respect, nobility, generosity, modesty, love and rightness."

"Religion and extremism never meet, since the religion is the source of love, but extremism is the source of hatred."

"Each Christian and Muslim who acts aggressively, will be contradicting their religious teachings."
