(4) Pluralism
(1) Pluralism, more accurately normative religious pluralism, maintains that the major world religions provide independent salvific access to the divine Reality.
(2) The pluralistic grounds of doctrine:
1) ethically, as the only way to promote justice in our intolerant and oppressive world.
2) in terms of the ineffability of religious experience, so that no religion can claim an absolute stance.
3) through the historicist thesis that varying cultural and historical contexts preclude absolutist religious claim.
(3) Pluralism maintains that the world religions relate to Ultimate Reality, but in differing ways (John Hick).
(4) While the cultural and historical settings of the world religions have produced varying conceptions of the Real (God), there is a common soteriological structure in all religions, namely, turning humans from self-centeredness to a new orientation to the Real (God).
(5) But there is no public evidence that any one religion is soteriologically unique or superior to others and thus has closer access to Ultimate Reality (John Hick).
