John Hick explores the dichotomy within contemporary Christianity, contrasting a traditional view that upholds the Bible as the sole authority with a progressive perspective that emphasizes global concerns and shared humanity. He highlights how one Christianity focuses on personal salvation and exclusivity, while the other addresses pressing issues like nuclear threats, resource depletion, and economic disparity. Hick posits that major religious traditions reflect varied understandings of a transcendent divine Reality, encouraging a broader dialogue beyond specific doctrines and practices.
