Gerald Priestland tries to look objectively at
Christianity's claim to be the unique way to salvation and the Kingdom of Heaven.
Jesus said ' I am the Way ... No man comes to the Father, but by me.' The BBC's Religious
Affairs Correspondent asks if this is not unfair to those who - largely by accident of birth - don't happen to be Christians? Does God really reject Jews, Hindus and Muslims? Or do all the great religions lead to his Kingdom?
Drama by BRIAN SIBLEY Music arranged by BARRY ROSE
Researcher PATRICK FORBES Producer CHRIS REES
(Repeated: Wed 4.0 pm) Companion notes for the series, 20p, from
Room 231, Broadcasting House, London W1A 1AA. An article by Gerald
Priestland based on this programme will appear in THE LISTENER, issue dated 29 October
