ABSTRACT

Religious pluralism has been a crucial case in the modern world. The responses to religious pluralism have been varied in the Christian world. This chapter considers Alan Race's typology as a starting point and presents different theologies of religions. It also presents post-liberal theology and comparative theology. The chapter focuses on Race's classification. In Christians and Religious Pluralism, Race focuses on exclusivism with two biblical texts, which are the sources of the exclusivist paradigm. Karl Barth has been considered one of the prominent exclusivist theologians of the twentieth century. Inclusivist theology occupies a position between exclusivism and pluralism. Race describes inclusivism as 'both an acceptance and a rejection of other faiths, a dialectical "yes" and "no"'. Karl Rahner is regarded as the major figure responsible for shaping the Catholic Church's positive attitudes toward non-Christian religions. John Hick is one of the most influential and also most criticised philosophers of the twentieth century.
