Continuing from this post, Panikkar
is quoted below, indicative of moving beyond enthocentrism, i.e, moving religion into at least rationality. The world can no longer tolerate
a 'tribal' religion, for we see what it does, e.g., Iraq. And what it
does in US government, rolling back decades of humanitarian and
environmental progress in its name. We can no longer afford to "let them
stop where they want to," for they very well could destroy life on this
planet in the form of climate change denial and inaction to correct our
complicity.
Panikkar:
"To the third Christian millennium is reserved the task of overcoming a
tribal Christology by a Christophany which allows Christians to see the
work of Christ everywhere, without assuming that they have a better
grasp or a monopoly of that Mystery, which has been revealed to them in a
unique way."
