I add here (August 23) that Nostra aetate does not say that we respect the Moslem religion; but Moslems. (Ecclesia cum aestimatione quoque Muslimos respicit.) When S John Paul II kissed a Quran which had been given to him, he was, manifestly, showing respect and affection for the donatio and the donantes, not for the donum.
