PRAISE FOR THE BOOK: "DiNoia approaches the debate in the theology of religions with a fresh, lucid, critical and informed mind...This book is timely, provocative and explores new territories and recasts old debates in a fresh and intelligent manner. It will appeal to philosophers, theologians, indologists and those concerned with the meeting of Christianity and the world religions."--Gavin D'Costa, University of Bristol

内容説明

How Christians can both value their own faith and express their convictions about Christianity yet simultaneously respect the faith of other religious people is the topic of this book. Devoted to developing a set of Catholic Christian responses to this problem, J.A. DiNoia starts from the conviction that no helpful answers can be forthcoming unless one acknowledges the profound differences among religions. While recent proposals in the ""theology of religions"" have tended to fix rather quickly on structural similarities of major religions to articulate a positive Christian evaluation of other faiths, this study seriously seeks out the differences among religions and argues that the best way to show respect for other faiths is to accept those things that distinguish their teachings from one another. DiNoia further argues that it is perhaps less important for Christian theology to allow for the salvation of people of other religions than to appreciate the distinctive goals their religions commend to their adherents and to the public at large.
