Abstract :
Andrew Kirk ('John Hick's Kantian Theory of Religious Pluralism and the Challenge of Secular Thinking,' Studies in Interreligious Dialogue, 12: 23-36) begins with the thought, with which I am fully in agreement, that religious thinking today must respond to the challenfe of the secular-humanist culture which pervades our Western civilization and is spreading out from it into the rest of the world. A good deal of my own writing has been an attempt to make such a response, centring on the cognitive value of religious experience. Where Kirk and I disagree widely, however, is on the relation between Christianity and the other world faiths.
