Beyond the disrespect of Enlightenment forbearance; Epilogue in an ecclesiological key; Notes; IndexThis book provides a sustained, critical and theological engagement with arguably the most crucial aspect of contemporary society - its diversity. The author finds in the social theory of Isaiah Berlin a number of fruitful ways to reframe the debate over these questions, and to contribute to a more positive conversation regarding our fundamental differences. The book focuses particularly on Berlin's critique of monism and idealistic utopianism, arguing that pluralism does not represent a failure in the nature of human society, but a superabundance of possibilities in a created world grRoutledge studies in religion ;7.Christianity and other religionsReligious pluralismChristianityReligious toleranceChristianityElectronic books.Christianity and other religions.Religious pluralismChristianity.Religious toleranceChristianity.261.2Jinkins Michael1953,920557MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450508503321Christianity, tolerance, and pluralism2064715UNINA
