Description
Christian World Imprints Inter-Religious Relations In India Challenges And Prospects by Rodinmawia Ralte
Recognising the importance of inter-faith relations in a pluralistic country like India, this book attempts to present the reality of inter-religious relations in India – problems and challenges, possibilities and prospects with a concrete suggestion. The book narrates how thousands and thousands of precious lives had been perished due to inter-faith clashes on one hand, and the attempts made by various religious organisations, communities and individuals towards securing inter-faith harmony in India on the other hand. The book also discusses the contribution of evangelical Christians towards inter-faith relations which is neglected in academic writings. It finally suggests practical solutions to this pathetic problem from a Christian perspective by offering the alternative understanding of inter-faith relations and the ways of relating people of various religions.
