I don't know exactly what has been resolved in the numerous Inter-Faith Dialogues between Christian and Muslims over the years in Europe and North America. I think we should not highlight differences rather we should focus on similarities common in both religions.
I think the commonest thing between Christians and Muslim, is their worship of the same God but known by different names. There could be no other God! There is only one in the whole wide universe. In other word, lets share God! A Christian would not be less Christian if he says his God is also worshiped by Muslims. In the same way, a Muslim incurs no sin if he says Allah is also being worshiped by Christian or for that matter by the Jews too.
Besides belief in common god, they should also discuss things that bedevil humanity for decades such as economic turmoil, family relationship, crime and terrorism, mentioned in the Holy Scriptures. The Koran has a lot of this. Lets put religion to solve social problems.
Avoid the temptation of saying who is right and who is wrong or who is great and who is not. Leave all ego out side at the door of the meeting room
