And it is a great temptation for us to join up as religions against the secular world or against the atheistic world. Unless we can keep them in the dialogue we will not see that humanity for which I believe my Lord Jesus Christ became incarnate, died, and lives today.

“And it is a great temptation for us to join up as religions against the secular world or against the atheistic world. Unless we can keep them in the dialogue we will not see that humanity for which I believe my Lord Jesus Christ became incarnate, died, and lives today. It is that humanity and that created order to which Christianity must renew its commitment.”
