Contents:
If religion is largely founded on faith, and faith on revelation, which of all the revelations are we to believe? Why make the Christian leap of faith, rather than the Muslim or Buddhist one? Very different answers to such questions would be given in different parts of the world. And in this imaginative addition to the comparative study of religions the author has adopted the form of a dialogue between a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Hindu and two Buddhists (from Ceylon and Japan) to demonstrate how the most influential creeds differ and on what they are agreed.
