The second part of my problem with dialogue tactics that play down the Jesus factor is that - surprisingly - it is just this factor that the non-Christian participants often seem most interested in and mosteager to discuss.
Even participants in those other sub-traditions that are most ready and eager to take advantage of the new pluralistic situation are not equally open to everything.
