 Moreover, if any beliefs of this type are true, Plantinga contends, then Christian exclusivists are quite probably “in a better position, epistemically speaking,” than those who reject the exclusivistic belief in question. Therefore, since it cannot be demonstrated that Christian belief of this sort is very likely false, Christian believers remain justified in maintaining that the proponents of other religious perspectives are not actually on an equal epistemic footing. The same, Plantinga acknowledges, might well be true for exclusivists in other religious belief systems (Plantinga 1997, 296).  [3]
