Theology of religions refers to the branch of Christian theology that attempts to theologically and biblically evaluate the phenomena of religions. Three important schools within this field are pluralism, inclusivism, and exclusivism. These each describe the relation of other religious traditions to Christianity and attempt to answer questions about the nature of God and salvation.

Famous quotes containing the words theology and/or religions:
“A theology whose god is a metaphor is wasting its time.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.”
—Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)
