Zusammenfassung:This essay explores the coherence and plausibility of a “transreligious theology,” asking whether there is, in fact, a distinctive methodology, a novel set of conclusions, or an operative community that could correspond to this project. It seems such a project can be distinguished from comparative theology in incremental respects. It seems questionable that there are major undiscovered options in the religious landscape. There does appear to be a viable audience and even a spiritual community that could find affinity with the project—the religiously unaffiliated but spiritually engaged. In sum, while ambivalent about the future of a theology without walls as a new movement, the author is intrigued by the conversation it fosters.
