Voices in Interfaith Studies. An Abrahamic Reflection

Anthology from the year 2016 in the subject Theology - Comparative Religion Studies, University of Geneva (Ecumenical Institute Bossey), course: Interreligious Studies, language: English, abstract: Interfaith studies is a daring but very interesting field since it deals with the attempt to understanding other religions of the world. Sometime it can be very emotional and full of sentiments. However, the result is always that some sort of a dialogue is reached for the cohabitation. This study does not in any way seek uniformity or a unity of religions in terms of form, style or tenets. It rather seeks a common round table on which the world religions can come together to improve on life in the universe. In this little book, the papers presented here are not official positions of any religion but the opinion of the writers. It is therefore very important to read this work for the sake of understanding what the others have to say. We have considered the papers from all three perspectives of the Abrahamic faith, which discuss different topics according to how the authors viewed them. The papers also reflect different academic backgrounds and style and we therefore present them as faithfully as they were written by the authors. We wish you a great time as you share in this world of knowledge from the students who are the authors of the papers in this publication.
