description Religious pluralism is a doctrine that has arisen in response to religious inclusivism and religious exclusivism. In this doctrine it has been asserted that various world religions are different ways representing the same ultimate reality equally and all of these religions will lead to its members to salvation. In this context, in spite of conflicting truth claims of them, major world religions are regarded in the same position in respect to their truth value. Conflicting claims and differences in religions are tried to explain on the basis of cultural, social and human factors. Because the same thing is mentioned in these religions. Therefore salvation should not be limited to a single religion. Because the God of goodness and love is God of all mankind. In spite of the fact that the foundations of this doctrine endured earlier times we can say that its systematization and becoming a the philosophical and theological doctrine is new. Systematizations and the most important representatives of religious pluralism are John Hick and Wilfred Cantwell Smith. Although religious pluralism presented as a doctrine which is suitable for the society of today and based on the principle of tolerance, has brought about a number of philosophical and theological problems.
