<![CDATA[Exploring the concept of religious moderation and its relevance in contemporary society, aiming to distinguish it from fundamentalism, extremism, and liberalism. I provide a conceptual framework for understanding religious moderation, examining its etymology, historical context, and interdisciplinary interpretations. The core values of moderation—tolerance, empathy, dialogue, and inclusivity—are analysed alongside the principles of contextual interpretation of religious texts and the role of ethics and social justice. Through concrete examples from Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and other religious traditions, I highlight how these principles are manifested in practice.
