PLURALISMO RELIGIOSO: CAMINHOS DE SALVAÇÃO.

Abstract

This work was done in an attempt to introduce other paths to salvation, beyond salvation from the Christian point of view, considering the plurality of beliefs and the growing understanding that the dialogue between religions needs to be broaden as a means towards world peace. Religion is a human manifestation that interpellates for its origin and its destination, and is present in all places and cultures. Thus, religious plurality is in the world, and everybody hopes to, somehow, feel good already in this life, and, for those who believe, there is hope for a peaceful life after death. This dissertation certainly does not intend to provide a complete treatment on the theological and philosophical issues raised by religious pluralism, nor does it present a historical overview of the attitudes adopted by Christians and non-Christians, but it focuses on the current debate around the arguments for and against the salvific possibilities presented by the great religious traditions of the world. Therefore, we seek the most important contemporary thinkers to compose our bibliographic list that could produce a dialectic enters the theoretical principles of religious pluralism.
