Abstract | Although the fact of religious incommensurability cannot be gainsaid, the language of difference and commonality often gets in the way of true interreligious understanding. One way of avoiding this impasse is to emphasize the dynamic character of traditions, even as we use the language of difference and commonality as a bridge to dialogue. If comparative religious ethics recognizes this dynamic character of all religious traditions, it represents one of the most fruitful approaches to avoiding the dangers of overemphasizing incommensurability. The author ends with ten theses to encourage further discussion. |
