Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

The dominant system, tendency and current are generally considered as Orthodoxy, while the anti-dominant systems are regarded as heterodoxy. However, it isn't possible to fully understand this matter through this general definition alone. Orthodoxy and heterodoxy are correlative and flexible changeable concepts. Whether it's an orthodoxy or heterodoxy is finally decided by the God through history. Therefore, true religion should not regard itself as Orthodoxy and denounce other sects or religions as heterodoxy. True religion should be based on love, tolerance and dialogue. Among these three, dialogue is emphasized here. Dialogue is a give and receive action in Unification Thought, Through give and receive action, integration and unification can be fulfilled. True dialogue is the only effective way to reconcile and unify the divisions of religions.
