KlappentextMembers of many religions live alongside one another in sprawling urban centers and isolated rural communities, and conflict and misunderstanding among religions are widespread. This book examines the nature of such encounters and explores the meaning of religious dialogue and terms like conversion, syncretism, salvation, and pluralism.
Zusatztext«Frederick Quinn's new book both warms and challenges. It warms with the theme of generous welcome, which he commends as an appropriate way for the worlds' religions to engage one another. It challenges with a history of divided Christian response (Closed Door vs. Open Door), running from antiquity right up to the present. In our global context, in which practitioners of different faiths have so much more to do with one another, Dr. Quinn's spirit points the way: a generosity that welcomes and learns, is enriched and enriching. Frederick Quinn has given us another wise book.» (Marilyn McCord Adams, Distinguished Research Professor of Philosophy, UNC-Chapel Hill, and former Regius Professor of Divinity, Oxford University)
