Title: Christian Discourses on Religious Diversity in Contemporary China
Abstract: The Chinese religious tradition seems to be characterized by the coexistence of divergent religions and the affirmation of religious plurality. Given the missionary background of Christianity in China, addressing the question of religious diversity is an important issue for Chinese Christians. This article attempts to analyze the contemporary Chinese Christian discourses on religious diversity, especially the question of how these discourses were shaped by their cultural, religious, social, political and intellectual and ecclesiastical contexts. Before analyzing these discourses, it is important to clarify some of the key terms and thus the scope of this study.
