The Importance of Dialogue and Listening in Pluralism
Pluralism requires engagement and dialogue with people of different beliefs. The goal is not to simply tolerate others, but to genuinely understand and respect their perspectives. This involves actively listening to others and asking questions about their faith and experiences. Pluralism does not require affirming the truth of other religions, but rather recognizing and valuing the diversity of beliefs and seeking common ground through respectful conversation.
