内容説明
Sixty years ago, most people viewed members of other religions with suspicion and hostility. The World Congress of Faiths, the interfaith movement founded in Britain in 1936, has enabled a growing number of people to build bridges of friendship with members of different religious traditions. Its work in promoting such friendship has challenged traditional stereotypes and provided the basis for the growth of inter-religious understanding and co-operation across the world. This work looks at the history of the World Congress of Faiths. It explores such issues as the nature of religious education in a pluralist society, interfaith worship, the role of religions in the work for world peace, and looks ahead to assess what still needs to be done.
