Abstract:

<p>Religious pluralisme is a term used to refer to positive attitudes toward world religions (e.g., Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Budhism, Catholic, etc) with the aim of creating a harmonious, peaceful, and prosperous life within a pluralist society by upholding people's equal rights to live peacefully in this world. The aim of this article is to elaborate on the concept of religious pluralism and its relation to Islamic education. There have been a controversy caused by the differing definitions of religious pluralism, which has led to certain misconceptions and hence its alienation from Islamic education in general. In the face of such challenges, efforts must continually be made to foster mutual understanding and respect between people of different religions in order to avoid potential conflicts, either between people embracing different religions or people within the same religion. It is this positive awareness which religious pluralism seeks to foster. Thus, incorporating the concept of pluralism into Islamic education is a must, especially by making change to the system of Islamic education which for a long time has focused only on building individual or communal piety. The new priority should be given to the creation of social sensitivity toward pluralism, either through cultural, language, or religious interventions. This all aims at reinforcing the notion of Islam as Rahmatallil’alamin.</p>

Abstract:

The relationship between Christianity and indigenous religion has been going on for a long time, but this relationship is not placed in the discourse of inter-religious relations. This is related to the paradigm and social construction in Christianity which has not fully recognized the indigenous religion as a "religion". By using Paul Knitter's approach to the model of inter-religious dialogue, namely exclusivism, inclusivism, and pluralism, this paper aims to observe and analyze Christian narratives and paradigms on the existence of indigenous religion. The narratives and paradigm will be divided into two parts: exclusivism, and pluralism. On the one hand, In exclusivism, indigenous religion is considered as "animism" and not yet "religious", therefore it needs to be "religiousized", or more specifically "Christianized". On the other hand, pluralism focuses on plurality, equality, and emphasizes inter-subjectivity. The analytical method used is descriptive qualitative, which consists of data reduction, data analysis, and drawing conclusions. The data in this paper are sourced from: first, the results of observations made at the Jemaat GPM Siahari, and the Mausuane tribe settlement, Seram Utara Timur Kobi District, Central Maluku Regency. Second, interviews were conducted with several young Christian generations on the Ambon island. And third, literature. In the end, the results of this study indicate that exclusive narratives of Indigenous religion (Jesus is the only way of salvation and truth, the great commission of Jesus Christ, and ancestral religions are considered to have no religion and do not have a God) still tend to be dominant in the socio-religious scope than pluralist narratives (freedom, and religious pluralism).

Abstract:

Pluralisme menjadi kesadaran baru yang menganggap bahwa semua keyakinan memiliki kesamaan secara umum satu dengan yang lain. Implikasinya, tidak ada satu pun agama yang boleh mengklaim bahwa ia adalah satu-satunya keyakinan yang paling benar di antara agama-agama lainnya. Indonesia sebagai negara pluralis juga menghadapi problematika pluralisme agama. Dalam menghadapi ini, muncul pemikiran Kristen pluralis yang menekankan persamaan di antara agama-agama sehingga meniadakan keunikan kekristenan: Kristus dan karya keselamatan-Nya benar sedangkan agama lainnya salah. Tulisan ini akan mengenalkan model berapologetika yang membela keunikan iman Kristen di tengah tantangan pemikiran Kristen yang pluralis tentang pluralisme agama di Indonesia: apologetika prasuposisional triperspektivalisme John M. Frame yang diuraikan melalui apologetika konstruktif (normatif), defensif (eksistensial), dan ofensif (situasional). Kata-kata kunci: Apologetika, Prasuposisional, Triperspektivalisme, John M. Frame, Aplikasi, Pluralisme Agama Pluralism exhibits a new awareness that assumes that all beliefs have general similarity when compared one with another. As a result, there is no religion that can claim that it has the claim to ultimate truth when compared with a host of other options. Indonesia, as a pluralistic nation, exhibits the challenges of religious pluralism. Because of that reality, there are frameworks of Christian thought that have arisen that emphasize the similarity of several religions which erodes and ultimately eliminates the uniqueness of Christianity. However, Jesus Christ and his work of salvation is absolutely true and the other religions are false. This article will introduce an apologetic model that can be used to defend the uniqueness of the Christian faith among the challenges of religious pluralistic thought in Indonesia. John M. Frame’s triperspectivalism presuppositional apologetics is proferred and developed through constructive apologetics (normative), defensive apologetics (existential), and offensive apologetics (situational). Keywords: Apologetics, Presuppositional, Triperspectivalism, John M. Frame, Application, Religious Pluralism

Abstract:

The question of religious pluralism has attracted many responses from the fields of interreligious dialogue and theology of religions. These responses, like inculturation, dialogue, and so on, have been concerned with “how” religions/spiritualities should be inclusive and imbue each other. However, the contemporary challenges of religious pluralism, ranging from the clamor for cultural identity to the structural and ontological differences among religions, suggest that the responses cannot create inclusivist interreligious contexts. One of these responses is the phenomenon of multiple religious belonging, which proposes that people could or should belong, believe, and practice as many religions as they want or can. In the Christianity–African spirituality context, this phenomenon poses some challenges for both Christianity and African indigenous spiritualities. This article intends to critically address the tensive constellation of African spiritualities and Christianity over the expectations of multiple religious belonging. It argues that there are discrepancies in the Christianity–African spiritualities constellation for multiple belonging. It suggests another approach to the question of religious/spirituality concatenation in Africa.

The idea of pluralism is developing of religious thought, arises by influenced of development of cultural thought, ideology, certain interests, and the power interest. Also the situation of new religions, enter and meet the old religion. At the first, religion is generally exclusivist, but tolerance interest develop it to be inclusive, and finally pluralist, so does for Christianity, as well as other religions. There is truth in each religion, itsmust be respected, but righteous and savetyjust only in its own religion and belief. The real pluralism rejects the notion of every religion can bring its followers to heaven or to save.

Abstract:

Ukraine is a religiously plural country since its appearance on the world map. Already in the first of its power formation, the Kiev-Rus power coexisted the beliefs of their gods of the Gentiles of various tribes, an attempt to combine them into a single pantheon sought to implement (albeit unsuccessfully) Prince Vladimir in 982. In our own way, our people perceived in their spiritual world and Christianity after his baptism by Prince Vladimir in 988. He united in his beliefs this religion with paganism, and thus became two-sided. And it could not be otherwise. Paganism is a religious picture of nature and human activity in it. Christianity is the religious picture of man in her relationship with other people and God. That is why, having come to our lands, Christianity, because of the absence of any of its specific natural connotations, could not replace, but rather supersede paganism. It baptized him. Therefore, we now have virtually no pure Christianity in the beliefs of the people, but Christianized paganism and, at the same time, lucid Christianity. This syncretism is one of the foundations of the religious plurality that characterizes the spiritual world of our people.

Abstract:

A basic problem of the contemporary religious-theological discussion may consist in the task of connecting a methodically sensitive cultural-hermeneutical theory of religion with a normative perspective. This task cannot be fairly developed either from theologies of religion oriented by the religious-theological triadic pattern of exclusivism, inclusivism, and pluralism, or from the conceptions of comparative theologies. In my essay, I take up this question and try to show further aspects for the present religious-theological discussion by means of Tillich’s lectures on Christianity and the Encounter of the World Religions. His contribution is a threefold one: (1.) Through the methodic assimilation of the concept of religion, the pluralism of religions becomes, in principle, recognized. (2.) The foundation of the history of religions leads to a differentiated perception of the complex interreligious exchange processes. (3.) Tillich’s theology of religion involves not only the recognition of religious pluralism, but also a methodological justification for a normative criterion for the evaluation of religions. In the form of six theses, I would like to answer the question of the consequences of what has been said so far for the reflection and treatment of religious pluralism within theology.

Abstract:

The objective of this article is to analyse several ways of handling religious diversity that were practised in medieval Latin Christian Europe, paying particular attention to the interdependencies between the following fields of religious diversity: first the presence of other religions than Latin Christianity within Medieval Europe, which is all too often reduced to Iberian ‘convivencia’. Second, religious diversity within Christianity is stressed, drawing particular attention to the so-called and frequently overlooked Oriental churches. A third block deals with the mechanisms the Christian Latin Church developed in order to control religious plurality, of which the demarcation between orthodoxy and heresy was only one. The development and institutionalisation of varied forms of religious life can also be understood as an attempt to channel diversity. Seen from this angle, the vivid world of sainthood—the fourth field—might be interpreted as a form of transcendental pluralism and as a flexible ‘market’ that catered to societal and religious change. Some final reflections are dedicated to the theological consequences European religious diversity heralded within Latin Christianity. Intra-religious diversification and inter-religious demarcation were closely related.

Abstract:

Resumo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo refletir sobre os possíveis desafios para a prática missionária no contexto do pluralismo religioso. Ele procura identificar aproximações entre uma cristologia no pluralismo religioso, sem desvalorizar ou apagar a singularidade da perspectiva interna da fé cristã, segundo a qual Jesus Cristo permanece normativo para “o encontro com a realidade última”. Em termos epistemológicos, a teologia sofre deslocamentos em sua própria estrutura, é desconstruída e reconstruída no diálogo com seu tempo e lugar cultural. Se, por um lado, as teologias foram questionadas pelo pensamento contemporâneo, por outro lado (no momento atual) elas se confrontam com uma questão mais radical: o caráter central de Cristo, expressão primeira da fé salvadora, questionada pela pluralidade cultural e religiosa. Como anunciar o Deus de Jesus no mundo pluralista? O autor defende que o cristianismo atual é convidado a repensar seus paradigmas missionários a partir do pluralismo religioso contemporâneo. A metodologia utilizada é basicamente a pesquisa bibliográfica, em vista da elaboração de um estudo analítico-sintético. Palavras-chave: Missão. Cristologia. Reino de Deus. Pluralismo Religioso. Abstract: The aim of this paper is to reflect on the possible challenges to missionary practice in the context of religious pluralism. It seeks to identify similarities between christologies in the religious pluralism, without disparaging or effacing the uniqueness of the singularity of the Christian faith, according to which Jesus Christ remains normative for “the encounter with ultimate reality”. In epistemological terms, the structure of Theology has changed, and it has been deconstructed and reconstructed in its dialogue with their time and cultural place. Theologies have been questioned by contemporary thought and are also faced now with a more radical question: the central character of Christ, the primary expression of saving faith, questioned by cultural and religious plurality. How to announce the God of Jesus in a pluralistic world? The author argues that current Christianity is invited to rethink their missionary paradigms in the light of contemporary religious pluralism. The methodology used is basically bibliographic research so as to prepare an analytic-synthetic study. Keywords: Mission. Christology. Kingdom of God. Religious Pluralism.

Abstract:

The fact of a religiously plural world is one that is readily acknowledged by believers and non-believers alike. For religious believers, however, this fact poses a set of problems. Religions, at least most of the world's great religions, seem to present conflicting visions of the truth and competing accounts of the way to salvation. Faced with differing accounts of God in Judaism, Buddhism, Islam or Hinduism, what, for example can the Christian claim for the truth of Christian beliefs about God? John Hick, reflecting on the phenomenological similarity of worship in some of the great religious traditions, asks ‘whether people in church, synagogue, mosque, gurdwara and temple are worshipping different Gods or are worshipping the same God?’ (Hick and Hebblethwaite, 1980, p. 177). He rejects two possible answers to this question: that there exist many Gods, or that one religion, for example Christianity, worships the true God while all other religions worship false gods, which exist only in their imaginations.

Abstract:

In this thesis I am investigating the religious ideas of Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, H. P. Blavatsky and Annie Besant as examples of early approaches to religious pluralism. In this context, the term ‘religious pluralism’ refers to the belief that all religious traditions are paths to genuine religious ends. Thus, religions other than one’s own are considered to be of significance to people of all faiths and even to those who are not believers. I relate the appearance of these early notions of religious pluralism to the historical and ideological setting in which they were proposed, particularly the late nineteenth-century debate about science and religion in the West and its spheres of influence. I argue that theories of evolution, in addition to the emerging field of historical biblical criticism, presented a serious challenge to traditional understandings of religion. Together, these two strands of thought made a strong case for a purely materialistic worldview and for the further development of modern sciences on such a basis. In response to this crisis of religion, the four thinkers proposed religious teachings inspired by their own intense religious experience. They emphasised the experiential aspect of these teachings in order to claim an epistemic status of religious knowledge equal to that of scientific or empirical knowledge. In order to universalise this claim, they appealed to religious experience and religious knowledge originating in all faith traditions. In my assessment of these arguments I suggest that the two main thinkers, i.e. Ramakrishna and Blavatsky, may have been led towards pluralistic ideas of religion through their endorsement of the esoteric traditions of Tantrism and Hermeticism, respectively. Moreover, I trace the impact of the British colonial presence in India on the content, presentation and reception of the teachings of all four thinkers. I conclude that the teachings of Ramakrishna et al. represent early attempts to engage with the fact of religious plurality from a religious perspective. Thus, the four thinkers encouraged people to relate to the beliefs and practices of other faiths and to explore them in relation to their own life. These early efforts in interreligious understanding represented the initial steps towards our current debates about religious pluralism and interreligious dialogue.

Abstract:

O trabalho tem o propósito de traçar alguns pressupostos epistemológicos para o diálogo entre cristãos e muçulmanos. Dividido em cinco capítulos, o trabalho inicia com a conceituação de diálogo à luz dos pensamentos de Paulo Freire e Martin Buber. Nesse capítulo, define-se o que seja diálogo inter-religioso, diferenciando-o do ecumenismo. Em seguida, apresenta-se uma síntese dos grandes encontros inter-religiosos ocorridos no mundo, desde o Primeiro Parlamento Mundial das Religiões realizado em Chicago, E.U.A, no ano de 1893 até a Jornada Mundial da Oração ocorrida em Assis, Itália, no ano de 1986. No segundo capítulo, as teologias pluralistas de John Hick e John Spong são utilizadas para uma nova compreensão da encarnação divina de Jesus Cristo de forma metafórica e a importância deste fato para o diálogo inter-religioso. No terceiro capítulo, mostra-se que o mundo muçulmano, através de seus teólogos, também tem procurado fazer o aggiornamento de sua base teológica, reinterpretando alguns fundamentos do Alcorão e da Sharia. No quarto capítulo, aborda-se a necessidade do diálogo inter-religioso à luz das filosofias da alteridade de Martin Buber, Emmanuel Lévinas e Boaventura Santos. O quinto capítulo, tratou-se da aplicação da epistemologia transdisciplinar de Basarab Nicolescu e Edgar Morin no diálogo inter-religioso, com a integração dos saberes, a partir do axioma lógico do terceiro incluído. Na conclusão destacam-se os pontos essenciais, dentro de uma nova lógica epistemológica, para a coexistência pacífica entre cristãos e muçulmanos na construção de uma cultura de paz<br>This dissertation is to draw some epistemological assumptions for the dialogue between Christians and Muslims. Divided into five chapters, this dissertation begins with the concept it of dialogue in the light of the thoughts of Martin Buber and Paulo Freire. In this chapter, is defined what is inter-religious dialogue, differentiating it from ecumenism. Then, the summary of major inter-religious encounters occurred in the world since the First World Parliament of Religions held in Chicago, USA, in the year 1893 up to the World Day of Prayer held in Assis, Italy, in 1986 was given. In the second, the pluralistic theologies of John Hick and John Spong are used for a new understanding of the divine incarnation of Jesus Christ in a metaphorical significance of this fact and for the inter-religious dialogue. In the third chapter, it is shown that the Muslim world, through its theologians, has also sought to update its theological basis, reinterpreting some foundations of the Koran and Sharia. In the fourth chapter, it is discussed the necessity of inter-religious dialogue in the light of the philosophies of alterity of Martin Buber, Emmanuel Lévinas and Boaventura Santos. The fifth chapter is about the implementation of transdisciplinary epistemology Basarab Nicolescu and Edgar Morin in inter-religious dialogue, with the integration of knowledge of the logical axiom of the third included. In conclusion we highlight the key points within a new epistemological approach to peaceful coexistence of Christians and Muslims, in order to build a culture of peace

Full text

Abstract:

Dual religious belonging is a phenomenon of individuals who identify themselves as followers of more than one religious tradition. People of faiths may find themselves in different degrees of dual or multi-religious conditions due to growing up in inter-religious marriages of their parents, exposure to multi-religious traditions or inter-religious encounters. The thesis of this study is to argue for the legitimacy of “Dual Religious Belonging” for Christians coming from Asian religious backgrounds through an assessment of the threefold theology of religions. It concludes that “Universal Access Exclusivism” can be the best model for sustaining dual religious belonging from an Evangelical perspective. The study seeks to answer the following primary research questions: 1) Theologically, can Evangelical Christians belong to more than one religious tradition? What are the arguments forwarded for dual religious belonging and how do Christians develop a theological assessment of such phenomena, particularly for Christians who hold on to the finality of Jesus Christ for salvation? 2) Within the threefold model of theology of religions, which theology can best sustain dual religious belonging for Evangelical Christians? The study offers a comparative examination of the pluralist theology of Paul Knitter, the inclusivist theology of Raimon Panikkar and the exclusivist theology of Harold Netland. The secondary research question is what are some contributions of dual religious belonging theology toward an Evangelical contextual missiology? Specifically, some contributions toward “insider movements” debates and Christian discipleship for those coming from different faith traditions will be considered. The study seeks to, first, offer a critique against pluralist and inclusivist theologies for multiple and double religious belonging, and second, forward a proposal for dual religious belonging theology for followers of Jesus Christ coming from mixed religious backgrounds from an Evangelical perspective.

Abstract:

Este trabalho de pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar os desafios e perspectivas do diálogo inter-religioso a partir das inovações propostas pelo Concílio Vaticano II, como também seus desdobramentos em vários documentos no período pós conciliar, particularmente na Instrução Diálogo e Anúncio. Ante a insuficiência da postura do Magistério eclesial na abordagem da questão, das controvérsias suscitadas nas diversas esferas da instituição eclesial, a teologia do pluralismo religioso de Jacques Dupuis poderá situar melhor o problema, ao propor que as religiões sejam incluídas no projeto salvífico de Deus para toda a humanidade, reconhecendoas como caminhos ordinários de salvação. A atitude da Igreja em relação às religiões não cristãs tem sido marcada pela ambiguidade, rompendo, assim, com as orientações pastorais emanadas do Concílio que exorta os cristãos a descobrir os valores positivos destas tradições religiosas. Neste sentido, a Declaração Dominus Iesus, abrirá uma verdadeira cruzada contra os teólogos adeptos do pluralismo, a fim de impedir o avanço deste novo paradigma para a teologia, favorecendo um discurso com tendências exclusivistas que não consegue dialogar com o mundo moderno, plural e secularizado.

Abstract:

While the appeal of ‘civilisational dialogue’ is on the rise, its sources, functions, and con- sequences arouse controversy within and between faith communities. Some religious lead- ers have attempted to clarify the religious foundations for such dialogue. Among them are Jonathan Sacks, the Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Britain and the Commonwealth, Edward Idris, Cardinal Cassidy of the Catholic Church, and Fethullah Gülen. The paper compares the approach of these three religious leaders from the Abrahamic tra- dition as presented in their scholarly works – Sacks’ The Dignity of Difference, Cardinal Cassidy’s Ecumenism and Interreligious Dialogue, and Gülen’s Advocate of Dialogue. The discussion attempts to answer the following questions: Can monotheistic traditions accom- modate the dignity of followers of other monotheistic and polytheistic religions as well as non-theistic religions and philosophies? Is a belief in the unity of God compatible with an acceptance of the religious dignity of others? The paper also explores their arguments for why civilisational and interfaith dialogue is necessary, the parameters of such dialogue and its anticipated consequences: how and how far can dialogue bridge the claims of unity of God and diversity of faiths? Islam’s emphasis on diversity and the Quran’s accommodation of ear- lier religious traditions put Islam and Fethullah Gülen in the best position to offer a religious justification for valuing and cherishing the dignity of followers of other religions. The plea for a dialogue of civilizations is on the rise among some policymakers and politi- cians. Many of them believe a dialogue between Islam and the West has become more urgent in the new millennium. For example following the 2005 Cartoon Wars, the United Nations, the Organization of the Islamic Conferences, and the European Union used a joint statement to condemn violent protests and call for respect toward religious traditions. They pled for an exchange of ideas rather than blows: We urge everyone to resist provocation, overreaction and violence, and turn to dialogue. Without dialogue, we cannot hope to appeal to reason, to heal resentment, or to overcome mistrust. Globalization disperses people and ideas throughout the world; it brings families individuals with different beliefs into close contact. Today, more than any period in history, religious di- versity characterizes daily life in many communities. Proponents of interfaith dialogue claim that, in an increasingly global world, interfaith dialogue can facilitate mutual understanding, respect for other religions, and, thus, the peaceful coexistence of people of different faiths. One key factor for the success of the interfaith dialogue is religious leaders’ ability to provide an inclusive interfaith theology in order to reconcile their commitment to their own faith with the reality of religious diversity in their communities. I argue that prominent leaders of the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) are already offering separate but overlapping theologies to legitimize interfaith dialogue. A balanced analysis of multi-faith interactions is overdue in political science. The discipline characterises religious interactions solely from the perspective of schism and exclusion. The literature asserts that interactions among believers of different faiths will breed conflict, in- cluding terrorism, civil wars, interstate wars, and global wars. According to this conven- tional depiction, interfaith cooperation is especially challenging to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam due to their monotheism; each claims it is “the one true path”. The so-called “monothe- istic exclusion” refers to an all-or-nothing theological view: you are a believer or you are an infidel. Judaism identifies the chosen people, while outsiders are gentiles; Christians believe that no salvation is possible outside of Jesus; Islam seems to call for a perennial jihad against non-Muslims. Each faith would claim ‘religious other’ is a stranger to God. Political “us versus them” thinking evolves from this “believer versus infidel” worldview. This mindset, in turn, initiates the blaming, dehumanizing, and demonization of the believers of other reli- gious traditions. Eventually, it leads to inter-religious violence and conflict. Disputing this grim characterization of religious interactions, scholars of religion offer a tripartite typology of religious attitude towards the ‘religious other.’ They are: exclusivism, inclusivism, and pluralism. Exclusivism suggests a binary opposition of religious claims: one is truth, the other is falsehood. In this dichotomy, salvation requires affirmation of truths of one’s particular religion. Inclusivism integrates other religious traditions with one’s own. In this integration, one’s own religion represents the complete and pure, while other religions represent the incomplete, the corrupted, or both. Pluralism accepts that no religious tradi- tion has a privileged access to religious truth, and all religions are potentially equally valid paths. This paper examines the theology of interfaith dialogue (or interfaith theology) in the Abrahamic religions by means of analyzing the works of three prominent religious lead- ers, a Rabbi, a Pope, and a Muslim scholar. First, Jonathan Sacks, the Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Britain and the Commonwealth, offers a framework for the dialogue of civilizations in his book Dignity of Difference: How to Avoid the Clash of Civilizations. Rather than mere tolerance and multiculturalism, he advocates what he calls the dignity of difference—an active engagement to value and cherish cultural and religious differences. Second, Pope John Paul II’s Crossing the Threshold of Hope argues that holiness and truth might exist in other religions because the Holy Spirit works beyond the for- mal boundaries of Church. Third, the Turkish Islamic scholar Fethullah Gülen’s Advocate of Dialogue describes a Muslim approach to interfaith dialogue based on the Muslim belief in prophecy and revelation. I analyze the interfaith theologies of these religious leaders in five sections: First, I explore variations on the definition of ‘interfaith dialogue’ in their works. Second, I examine the structural and strategic reasons for the emergence and development of the interfaith theologies. Third, I respond to four common doubts about the possibility and utility of interfaith di- alogue and theologies. Fourth, I use John Rawls’ overlapping consensus approach to develop a framework with which to analyze religious leaders’ support for interfaith dialogue. Fifth, I discuss the religious rationales of each religious leader as it relates to interfaith dialogue.
