All religions make statements about God or the Absolute and about
"the beginning": about the beginning of the world and the beginning
and nature of the human person. Propositions about God, the human
person, and the world, statements about God's eternity or process
of becoming, about the status and nature of the human person as the
"image of God," and about the beginning of the world are woven into
"religious speculations about the beginning." The theology,
anthropology, and cosmology of the world religions determine the
image of the human person and the image of the world in the world
cultures shaped by the different religions. They stand in a tense
relationship with the anthropologies and cosmologies of modern
science, which in turn challenge the religions to deepen their
image of the human person. With this volume leading thinkers of
Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam provide the
reader with a first-hand source for understanding the five world
religions and their teaching about God, the human person, and the
origin of the world.
