3. Dialogue, Dialectical Relativism, and Peaceful Coexistence with Communism

While communism can only coexist with true Catholics in a state of battle (cf. the interesting article of Rev. Fr. Giuseppe De Rosa, S.J., entitled "L'Impossibile Dialogo tra Cattolici e Communisti," Civilta Cattolica, Rome, 10/17/1964, pp. 110‑23), its coexistence with religions that accept dialectical relativism can well be truly peaceful, since their dialogue has no pugnacity and has only the character of collaboration.
