I’m Okay, You’re Okay (More or Less)

Robert Mckim

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

This essay presents a case for adopting a magnanimous attitude towards those who disagree with us about religious matters. It also presents a case against thinking that there is something wrong with others just because they disagree with us about such matters. The idea of religious ambiguity is central to my reasoning. I explain this idea and some of its implications.
