Pope Francis says, “All religions are paths to God” at an inter faith gather in Singapore upon Sept 14. In this video Fr Stefano Penna explaining the Catholic position on other religions and we also discus what is problematic with the Pope’s statement.
Relevant quotes:
On Sept 13, in Singapore, Pope Francis to an assembly of youth:
“One of the things that has impressed me most about the young people here is your capacity for interfaith dialogue. This is very important because if you start arguing, “My religion is more important than yours...,” or “Mine is the true one, yours is not true....,” where does this lead? Somebody answer. [A young person answers, “Destruction”.] That is correct. “ All religions are paths to God. I will use an analogy, they are like different languages that express the divine. But God is for everyone, and therefore, we are all God’s children. “But my God is more important than yours!”. Is this true? There is only one God, and religions are like languages, paths to reach God. Some Sikh, some Muslim, some Hindu, some Christian.”
