Abstract
In the scope of the Catholic Church relationship with religions, the rupture with the christian model effected by the Councilium had a decisive role: it meant a crucial lurch that took to a inspection of not only the relation with other religions, but also of the own ecclesiology and theology. With that, the Concilium took a huge step when casting a positive look on the religions and recognizing they contain the "seeds of the Word" (AG 11b). However, it's necessary to acknowledge the concilium priests limited themselves to present general directives and indications of fundamental attitudes regarding other religions, with no concern in presenting an interreligious dialogue theology. This article seeks to problematize the Concilium directives and indications based on the concept of transversality. We took on the perspective that in order for a interreligious dialogue to be consistent, in consonance with the concilium afflatus, it needs to be transversal both in discourse and in the pastoral action. The mission , the liturgy, the catechism and the theological education are areas, amongst others, in which the interreligious dialogue transversality needs to come to life.
