It is possible to mention that there are important components supplying the peace and the presence of the humanity in the messages of all hymn religions, first of all Islam, and also some negativities fed from the religious differences nowadays or in the past are in fact the results of the wrong comments of the believers not the origins of the religions. Consequently, All of the people must take effort for communication, dialogue, tolerance and understanding each other to provide the peace of world and the happiness of the humanity. The last point come in the world is to consider the dialogue not as a choice, to consider it as a obligatory. Presidency of Religious Affairs, which is in charge of clarifying the society about the religion and which is a association of republic for 83 years, parallel with these developments in the world, accelerated the dialogue between the religions by the slogan of ?Peace of world is a dream without the peace between the religions?. Because Islam, which is a peace and mercy religion, is a perfect religion. In terms of such a perfect religion, its members should not worry about dialogue efforts. Corresponding dialogue studies must not make this perfect religion and its believers anxious.
