Abstract

Abstract

Given that the world is religiously diverse, how do home religions negotiate the achievability of salvation for the adherents of foreign religions? This article surveys Jewish, Christian, Islamic, Hindu and Buddhist inclusivism. This paper distinguishes between theistic inclusivism and nontheistic inclusivism since salvation is understood differently from theistic and non-theistic religions. Theistic inclusivism maintains that all paths run through God, whereas non-theistic inclusivism maintains that the core of salvation is an escape from the cycle of rebirth and suffering.
