How can we, as people and communities with different religions and
cultures, live together with integrity? Does tolerance require us
to deny our deep differences or give up all claims to truth, to
trade our received traditions for skepticism or relativism?
Cultural philosopher Lenn E. Goodman argues that we can respect one
another and learn from one another's ways without either sharing
them or relinquishing our own. He argues that our commitments to
our own ideals and norms need not mean dogmatism or intolerance. In
this study, Goodman offers a trenchant critique of John Rawls's
pervasive claim that religious and metaphysical voices must be
silenced in the core political deliberations of a democracy.
Inquiry, dialogue, and open debate remain the safeguards of public
and personal sanity, and any of us, Goodman illustrates, can learn
from one another's traditions and explorations without abandoning
our own.
