A Critical Review of Christian Exclusivism
Journal Title: جستارهایی در فلسفه و کلام - Year 2013, Vol 45, Issue 90
Abstract
Exclusivism is among the matters of dispute among the theologians and advocates of religions, which has since long ago been of interest to the Christian theologians and emphasized by them and now is facing various challenges. In this writing, only their out-religious reasons, such as referring other religions to Christianity, the Resurrection of Jesus and similar issues are presented from major sources and then critically reviewed. The most significant critiques leveled are the ones that the Christians and even their theologians have brought up, such as lack of logical reasons, incompatibility with comparative studies of religions, the shortcomings and historical performance of Christianity, etc.
