Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: If there is really only one truth, and if truth qua truth must be universal, then how is the human being to make sense of the multiplicity of religions, all of which claim special access to âThe Truthâ? John Hickâs pluralistic hypothesis addresses the problem presented by religious diversity insofar as this problem impacts upon contemporary social, political and cultural developments. In this sense, Hickâs pluralistic reconstruction and reinterpretation of religion reveal at least as much about twentieth-century Western values and concerns as they do about âreligionâ. The author argues that the Pluralistic Theology of Religions, as presented in John Hickâs pluralistic hypothesis, is the attempt to apply âscientificâ methods and data to âreligiousâ allegiances and practices in order to justify and legitimate an âaesthetic/emotiveâ response to a rapidly changing socio-political global situation.
