Abstract

Among religiological disciplines comparative theology occupies a special place. Some of its representatives advance a quite radical thesis that it should take the place of theology of religion. The question of validity of that thesis is the main issue of this paper. The article consists of four parts. After presenting the essential assumptions of both theology of religion and comparative theology current relationships between the disciplines will be analysed. In the last part the possibility of cooperation between comparative theology and theology of religion will be considered. The author declares for the model of creative co- operation of them the result of which could be comparative theology of religion.
