Salima, Salome, Solomon, Suleiman, Salem, Shalom, Jerusalem, Suleimanyia, Muslim, Islam, etc. are self-explanatory names and terms.  One question thus arising and which everybody can seek to answer for himself is:  what do these names and terms have in common other than their common roots, i.e. the consonants S, L and M?  The SLM Center seeks to address this and related questions, such as those posed by the vision of the French Minister for Culture, the late André Malraux, that the "next century will be spiritual, or it will not be!"  Contributions are solicited without discrimination from leaders, scholars and laymen from all religions, nations and communities.  For the time being, they may be sent either by e-mail to: swissbit@solami.com  or by snail-mail to:  CORUM, box 2580, CH-1211 Geneva 2, Switzerland.  Unless specified otherwise, the editor considers himself authorized to reproduce these contributions notably on this website free of charge and with full credit to each author, and/or to utilize the material thus received as the editor sees fit in the course of the evolving studies, debates and conferences.
