Interfaith dialogue a romantic notion inherently is waste of time , which dialogue will lead to change of core religious views , yes if it leads to respect and tolerance for each other maybe it is worth some thought .This gentleman seems to think it can only be used as a pressure group to lobby for religious entities.Just a thought -religion may have deemed body scans wrong because they showed anatomy , body scans were not acceptable because they invaded privacy and we did not have to be religious to conclude this ,even nonreligious people concluded more or less the same ( body form anyway seems to be an obsession of muslim religious people)
For muslims intrafaith dialogue is more an issue ,once we develop tolerance within muslims for eg women, other sects only then could we graduate to become contributors to any concrete interfaith exchanges
