“The process of discernment of truth in interreligious dialogue involves . . . combining faithfulness to one’s own tradition and openness to the other, critical self-awareness and serious engagement with the teachings and practices of others, daring judgment and continuous openness to correction” (Introduction, Criteria). This collection emphasizes the importance of engaging in interreligious dialogue. It brings together scholars from different religions to address various topics, including discerning what is true and valuable in other religious traditions; engaging other religions’ texts and teachings; inviting dialogue between religions over the world market and economy; and assessing the religious acculturation phenomenon in the United States.
