No.28 Referenced from ~ Part1 - Chapter 2 - Argument 1-3

Rights are superior to Truth

In the parable of the "Meter Prototype" I explained that the idea of ​​a super-religion does not hold up in Christianity, which has the characteristic of "faith being fact-dependent." However, when Christianity has the characteristic of "ethics being non-fact-dependent" and ethics is understood as not being bound by the words of the Bible, then Christianity can share ethics with other religions. This makes it possible to ensure religious cooperation in society.

This understanding of Christianity that separates faith and ethics to some extent, is consistent with the ideas expressed in Chapter 2 - Essay 2, that "Christianity threatens the truth of others, but does not threaten the rights of others," "What society needs is not the 'supreme truth' or 'true love' taught by Christianity, but simply a minimum guarantee of human rights and freedom," and "Rights must be superior to truth."
