Abstract Globalization poses several challenges to the great historical world-wide religions. Inter-religious dialogue is a highly important goal and the more it is difficult to be achieved, the more it is necessary. When large human masses pass from poor areas to richer ones, religiously homogeneous communities get in contact with people of other faiths. Distant faiths are now professed by our neighbors. This is the root of value conflicts which they mutually classify themselves as abstracts entities, heirs of remote conflicts. In globalized society, religion risk to enhance their being the depositaries of collective memories for whole peoples. They become the last certainty of old identities while the feeling of eradication and real uprooting increases all the time. People do not turn to God because of their faith but because their faith is the last resource for individuals who cannot find their natal milieu and must live far away from their culture and society.
