description Nowadays, living in multi-religious societies can be very problematic to some people.

One of them is John Hick who puts forward the idea of pluralism. Yet, can pluralism solve the issue of every religion as a claimant of truth? This article will critically evaluate Hick’s idea of pluralism as well as exclusivism and inclusivism ideas
