Islam, and believes that only Islam can order a truly moral society. Such fundamentalism has led to an ‘anti-Westernism’ that rejects the many contributions Western thought has given to Islam and that Islam has given to Western thought (p. 139). Sachedina believes such fundamen- talism is a rejection of Muhammad’s pluralistic prophetic vision and the true teaching of the Qur’an. Sachedina’s theology combines religious freedom with a just moral basis for governance. It provides ‘Muslims with a non-violent, inclu- sively pluralistic framework’ that is ‘grounded in authoritative Islamic texts’ (p. 161). Like Pannenberg, Sachedina emphasizes the importance of the engagement of religion in public life. His work also has raised some concerns. The most obvious is that Sachedina’s view is not embraced by the majority of Muslims. In the next two chapters Winkler has the theologies of Pannenberg and Sachedina interact with one another. Winkler applies the two theologians’ work to a discussion of the problems and possibilities of ‘honest and constructive’ inter-religious dialogue (p. 215). Pannen- berg’s trinitarian understanding of God is invoked as a fruitful basis for interfaith dialogue. Winkler and Pannenberg believe that religious dif- ferences ‘are the loci for the most fruitful, interesting, and progressive dialogues’ (p. 304). Winkler concludes that these two theologians offer engaging propos- als, but not final answers, for future dialogues. He sees inter-faith dialogue as useful for moving to a richer understanding of God’s truth. Dialogue does not require religions to relinquish their exclusive truth claims but does require the parties to be respectful of the truths of others. Winkler offers a perspective on how religious plurality can be embraced and used to offset radicalism and conflict. This book, originally Winkler’s doctoral thesis, is a fair assessment of hopeful avenues for, and serious obstacles to, fruitful interfaith dia- logue. All engaged with interfaith dialogues, or studying Christian and Islamic responses to religious pluralism, religious globalization, and future pathways of interfaith dialogue will find this book informative.
