Some concrete examples of its/their impact on public life will be discussed, especially in the political, economic and cultural spheres. Contemporary American Ethicist, David Hollenbach, argues that the only way that enables the peaceful coexistence of many religions is tolerance of different religious convictions. Therefore, in this article religious tolerance would be analysed as a promising model for interreligious dialogue. There is another notion in Hollenbach’s argumentation which is important. At the centre of his teaching is the principle of solidarity. However, Hollenbach’s solidarity is an intellectual one, which requires more personal efforts towards building the community. This concept will be discussed in detail. Focussing on tolerance and intellectual solidarity will lead to the conclusion that it is possible to speak of a common morality in the context of religious pluralism. popup.nrat_date 2025-11-05 Close
