Conservative approach based in part on teachings rooted in Jewish mysticism but mostly on the [[Rambam]]. Assumes that current religions are false and obstacles to the emergence of a true noahide faith. Based on the teachings of the [[Arizal]] (who counts 72 nations) and Rambam, exile is a manifestation of the cosmic reality of breakage and evil. The nations are not merely the non-Jews or anti-Israel; they are the same stuff as the evil at the beginning of creation. This leads to the notion that non-Jews have no souls, although this has been modified by the teachings of Rabbi [[Menachem Mendel Schneersohn]]. This approach is [[Judaism_and_Other_Religions#Exclusive Position|exclusivist]] & metaphysical and assumes that there is only one Noahide faith. This category includes the teachings of Rabbi [[Menachem Mendel Schneersohn]] as well as any other exclusivists quoted by Chabad based Noahide groups.
Conservative and described as "harsh" approach, decreeing capital punishment for the smallest crimes. Assumes that current religions are false, but part of the process of preparing mankind for the truth. Maimonides' writings are embedded within a more theologically contradictory halakhic grid. Maimonides' complex position is sometimes interprested as [[Judaism_and_Other_Religions#Exclusive Position|exclusivist]], [[Judaism_and_Other_Religions#Inclusive Position|inclusivist]] or [[Judaism_and_Other_Religions#Universalism/Pluralistic Position|pluralist]], centered on historical-mission.
