Description
Summary:This essay introduces reflections by leading theologians with diverse perspectives on a “research program” in constructive theology that draws on revelations, epiphanies, and enlightenments from multiple religious traditions. If the aim of theology is to understand ultimate reality as fully as possible and if evidence about, and insight into, that reality is not limited to a single tradition, what is needed then is a theology without confessional boundaries, a “theology without walls.”
