Pope Benedict XVI greets an unidentified Muslim envoy in his summer residence in Castel Gandolfo, outside Rome, Monday, Sept. 25, 2006. The pontiff met Muslim envoys as part of an unprecedented diplomatic offensive to show his desire for interfaith dialogue after triggering outrage with recent remarks on Islam. The meeting brought together Muslim ambassadors to the Vatican and Islamic representatives in Italy.
