JESUS CHRIST AS LOCUS FOR THE MEETING OF WORLD RELIGIONS?

Abstract

Religions donot meet and dialogue with one anothe rimmediatlly,"Christianity Itself",forexample,meeting"Hinduism Itself" though in some Platonic heaven of Ideas they have to been embodied for encounter in living men and women of' flesh and blood. Only in the world of living human beings that a better understanding between religions can come about. For this reason I donot propose to under tak ehere yet another theoretical survey of inclusivism,exclusivism, pluralism and the various christologies that have evolved in recent years in the effort to relate th eperson and mission of Christ to the other great religions of the world.
