I personally think it is just another interesting tactic that won't really achieve very much as they can get together and talk anyway, designated building or not.

btw, I remember when Depeche Mode made a comeback from the 80's. Boy was I one happy bunny

If those religions really loved the world and aimed for peace, they should abolish themselves.

And either way, if they found this United Religions,...I'm in.
