The Interreligious situation of Cameroon

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Theology - Miscellaneous, grade: 2.0, , course: inter-faith dialogue and Migration, language: English, abstract: Migration in Cameroon in general has been caused by various factors. Of recent, there seem to be the feeling that though some people say that Cameroon is at peace there is a boiling pot. The interfaith situation of the country is such that has nursed tension and distrust for so long that if care is not taken, it may one day results to a terrible crisis. This paper tries to show that though the various religions in Cameroon try to promote peace, the tension within individual faiths may one day cause a new problem. Thus, there needs to be a tilt towards the inside to subdue all internal conflict before a true inter religious dialogue can exist in that country.
