Sažetak
Until the 20th century Western philosophy of religion was solely preoccupied with Judeo-Christian and Islamic religious traditions. However, it is clear today that philosophy of religion has no theological and confessional boundaries and that it is bound to consider religious phenomena in variety of its forms. One of its central problems is in fact religious pluralism: can philosophy of religion approach to all religious traditions on equal terms and offer an acceptable analysis? One of the greatest living philosophers of religion, John Hick, proposes a new “interpretation of religion” free of naturalist and confessional interpretations. Hick calls it “philosophy of religious pluralism” and sets it in broader context of philosophy of religion. His main concern is to encompass religious phenomenon in “pluralism of its forms”. This “pluralistic hypothesis” tends to be acceptable for the “global-thinking believers of all traditions”.
