Today the world is confronted with many religious wars and the migrations of millions of persons due to these conflicts. There is a need for informed dialog as to the roots of the conflicts and ways of addressing these in ways that speak to peoples’ minds and hearts. This is what this book attempts to do from the viewpoint of major religious and ethical thinkers. The book relies on Bernard Lonergan’s foundational method to address problems systematically with a view to achieve breakthroughs in our openness to one another. The book appeals to the teachings of the Buddha, Jesus, and Mohammad, relying on the mystical and insights of these religious founders as well as those of dozens of their followers so as to find commonalities that can build bridges of mercy. A global secularity ethics plays a leading role in this book’s bridging efforts.

John Raymaker holds a PhD in interdisciplinary social ethics (Marquette, University). He has spent many years in Japan, working at the Oriens Institute for Religious Research and teaching at Hosei University in Tokyo. He was for many involved in interfaith dialogs in Asia.
This work studies how Lonergan's comprehensive method can help mitigate the social, economic. and particularly religious tensions caused by globalization. Lonergan studied human understanding. He also examined Catholic teaching up to and following the Vatican II Council. The Council confirmed the Church's respect for a person's conscience in the midst of modern tensions. Christians today must address the problems caused by a militant Islam as well as the arguments of secularists. The book analyzes today's many identity crises. It argues that Lonergan's method can help people build bridges between hearts and minds. (William Weiskopf, Ph.D, Catholic Lay Theologian)
