Abstract
"The philosophy of John Hick, who is famous for his religious pluralism, has received vigorous study in terms of its epistemology, authority, concept of God, and Christology. However, less attention is given to his pareschatology. As explained below, initial investigation shows that there is a need for indepth study of Hick’s religious philosophy in this area. Based on preliminary research, Hick’s religious pluralism seems to reveal a critical problem with external correspondency, as follows. His pareschatology, which is an attempt to accept all eschatologies of major world religions as valid, may as a consequence tend to invalidate them all in the end. Moreover, other factors may indicate the presence of inconsistencies in Hick’s pareschatological model, which may reflect upon the adequacy of his overall model of religious pluralism"
