Abstract

The reality of globalization and the constant migrations that characterize the contemporary world, implies a true "mixture of civilizations and cultures". The distinct traditions and religions are no longer bounded to a limited territory, but are accessible to all mankind. This historical process requires an orientation to the good life, personal and communal, to acquire a positive evaluation. To achieve this ideal, multiculturalism as a solution that is limited to gathering national, cultural, and religious identities that are isolated and juxtaposed is not enough. It is necessary that subjects contribute to him through mutual communication and public witness of the goods they represent, with a sense of common belonging to the human family. Between Christians, this means proposing a cultural interpretation of the coming of Jesus Christ, showing the vital center of the faith of the Church to all people. [TRANSLATION]
