This is an audio recording of Fr. Carlo Mendoza of the Immaculate Conception Major Seminary in Guiguinto, Bulacan, Philippines. Here he talks about Theology of Religion, a class he currently teaches. He discusses the three main Theologians, Karl Rahner, John Hick, and Michael Amaladoss, who help deepen the Catholic Church's understanding and relationship with other religions.

It doesn't happen often that we get to listen to a priest talk about the church's view on other religions especially in a country that's primarily Catholic/Christian. We aren't exposed to many other religions, to begin with, but quoting Fr. Carlo's paper, "in this time of globalization, with massive migrations aided by fast travel, the emergence of urbanization as well as rapid communication, believers of different faiths find themselves in each other's paths and lives."

As Christians of this era, having a strong foundation and understanding of why and how we should embrace other religious traditions feels like the next natural step in our spiritual growth.
