Abstract

Siniscalchi, Glenn B Undoubtedly, the unique mediatorial role that Jesus has for salvation has been defended by Christians from the earliest days of the church. In recent years some theologians have tried to reverse the church's traditional understandings of Jesus for the sake of reinterpreting Catholic doctrine in more defensible terms in the modern world. Sometimes these revised understandings of Christ's uniqueness result in unacceptable versions of 'religious pluralism'. In essence, these religious pluralists deny the unique salvific role of Jesus Christ.
