The last century witnessed a gradual but profound transformation of
the West's religious landscape. In today's context of diversity,
people are often influenced by, and sometimes even claim to belong
to, more than one religious tradition. Buddhism and Christianity is
a particularly prevalent and fascinating combination. This book is
the first detailed exploration of Buddhist Christian dual
belonging, engaging - from both Buddhist and Christian perspectives
- the questions that arise, and drawing on extensive interviews
with well-known individuals in the vanguard of this important and
growing phenomenon. The book looks at whether it is possible to be
authentically Buddhist and authentically Christian given the
differences in beliefs and practices. It asks whether Buddhist
Christians are irrational, religiously schizophrenic or spiritually
superficial; or whether the thought and practice of Buddhism and
Christianity can be reconciled in a way that makes possible deep
commitment to both. Finally, the book considers whether the
influence of Buddhist Christians on each of these traditions is
something to be regretted or celebrated.
