Features: Religion is a unique phenomenon of humanity. Almost all wars in human history have been either religious wars or quasi-religious wars. This book discusses the necessity of religious peace, and the author argues that we have an obligation to properly manage interreligious relationships. This is the first comprehensive work in China to introduce and discuss religious dialogue, covering the cross-cultural religious dialogue thought of Raymond Panikkar, the post-liberal religious dialogue thought of George Lindbeck, the interrelated and globally responsible religious dialogue thought of Paul Knitter, and the non-realistic religious dialogue thought of Don Cupitt.
