    Sammanfattning : How to judge religions other than one's own when the means are lacking due to linguistic mobility? In the present thesis this question is mainly analysed in a Christian setting through a reading of the theologians Paul Knitter and Harold Netland.

The thesis starts by maintaining that the question of linguistic mobility/stability is an issue in theology. LÄS MER
