Abstract

What is the most important religious conversation in America today?

Jesuit Paul Fitzgerald claims that the most important conversation in theology today is the dialogue between Catholicism and Eastern religions, especially Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam. If Catholicism can establish dialogues with these faiths, then much will be earned in the effort towards global understanding. He uses questions of Christ’s universal message to support this.
