In One Earth Many Religions Knitter looks back at his own "dialogical odyssey" ans forward to the way taht interfaith encounters and dialogue must focus attention on new challeges. Nothing less than enlisting the commitment of the world's religions on the task of saving out common home will do. In making that case, Knitter makes clear the complex structures - political, economic, and social as well as religious - that face those who approach this task. While articulating a "this-wordly soteriology" necessary to overcome our eco-human plight, Knitter offers practical considerations on actions and projects that have and should have been undertaken to stem the tide of environmental and human suffering.
The global crisis is both at the center of One Earth Many Religions and a test case for Knitter and others engaged in the dialogue of religions. Can religious differences concerning the nature of the transcendent themselves be transcended in order to promote ecohuman well-being? The issue seems basic and clear - if interreligious dialogue cannot effect such a change, then one must question whether religion is of any use whatsoever. |
