"Europe is committing suicide. The West is committing suicide." These phrases are now heard more and more frequently by many, and especially by experts. The face of humanity is changing. And it is not changing due to old age or illness, but because of cruel plastic surgeries performed by self-proclaimed apprentice magicians. The very composition of societies is changing, while a structural crisis afflicts the values systems of people. Even worse, a web of unprecedented violence is flooding even Western societies.

Here is where religions and spiritual traditions can teach respect, dignity, fruitful silence, and dialogue. Possessing tested ethical systems and centuries of experience, they have the power and means to promote the construction of peace and the development of a global consciousness that will awaken and lay the foundations of that new and brave world that everyone dreams of, but few have the vision and energy to pursue. More than anything else, however, they can collaborate for the healing of humanity and the world, and especially for the return of the Sacred.

In this very interesting and timely book, Konstantinos Th. Zaras, Associate Professor at the Department of Theology of the University of Athens, depicts without embellishments the reality prevailing today among religions. After extensive research, he presents his findings regarding the situation between Christianity and Islam, the real causes that have triggered the wave of Muslim immigration to Greece and Europe, the consequences of this highly significant event, but also his very interesting and practical proposals, if we want to change the situation and achieve the peace that we all so desperately need.
