As I began to read and reflect on Paul Knitter’s book, a conversation from ten years ago surfaced to the front of my memory. This memory was about a conversation with a local Ugandan while doing mission work overseas. It reemerged as my mind was intrigued by Knitter’s thoughts and reflections on world religious theologies. In Knitter’s book Theologies of Religion, one is really challenged to reevaluate what one believes when it comes to their faith and their Theology of Religion. As I reflect on…
