Tracing the temporal progression of the Catholic Church's control reveals that the authority of the clergy began to rise to the point where convert the Catholic doctrine became the only way to survive, and the Protestant Reformation was nothing but a reaction to the Catholic doctrine. On the other hand, these reformers did not accept other religions, such as Islam, but rather took a negative position on Islam, and this position continued with the Age of Enlightenment, as Immanuel Kant’s position on the Prophet of Islam was indicative of intense hostility. The research also revealed that contemporary religious pluralism philosophies, such as John Hick's, have no other goal than pushing people into the maze of agnosticism.
