  • James H. Cone: Father of Contemporary Black Theology
    James H. Cone: Father Of Contemporary Black Theology RUFUS BURROW, JR. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this article is to provide pastors, laypersons, students and aca- demicians with a sense of the human being behind and in the thick of black lib- eration theology as well as his courage to both lead and change. I shall briefly discuss aspects of James Hal Cone's background, some early frustrations and challenges he confronted, and ways in which his theology has shifted. Since the late 1960s, Cone has been among the most creative and courageous of the contemporary black liberation theologians. Although he has been writing major theologi"tal treatises since 1968, there has been no booklength manuscript published on his work. There have, however, been a number of dissertations written on his theology since 1974, some of which are comparative studies. Cone has been the subject of much criticism by white theologians, although few of them have taken either him or the black religious experience seriously enough to be willing to devote the time and energy necessary to learn all they can about these in order to engage in intelligent dialogue and criticism. Considered the premier black theologian and the "father of contemporary black theology," it is strange that after more than twenty years of writing, lectur- ing on and doing black theology, no one has yet devoted a book to Cone's work.' To be sure, Cone's is not the only version of black liberation theology. However, it was he who introduced this new way of doing theology in a systematic way.

  • The Polanyi-Tillich Dialogue of 1963: Polanyi's Search for a Post-Critical Logic in Science and in Theology
    The Polanyi-Tillich Dialogue Of 1963: Polanyi's Search For A Post-Critical Logic In Science And In Theology Richard Gelwick ABSTRACT: Key words: faith, doubt, indwelling, participation, hierarchical universe, tacit knowing, Gestalt, pragmatism, Dewey, Teilhard de Chardin Michael Polanyi found in the thought of Paul Tillich an ally for Polanyi’s program of showing the fiduciary component in all knowing including science. Polanyi saw, however, a danger in Tillich’s distinguishing science as preliminary concern and religion as ultimate concern. In a significant dialogue in 1963, Polanyi and Tillich met and addressed issues, agreeing that science and religion share a common epistemological structure. In 1962 - 63, Michael Polanyi was making major steps in his work towards a post-critical theory of knowledge. In the Fall, he joined Tillich in the list of those having given the Terry Lectures at Yale. Polanyi’s Terry Lectures eventually appeared in Polanyi’s book, The Tacit Dimension.1 The phrase, “the tacit dimension,” became a summarizing terminology for Polanyi’s restructuring of our theory of knowledge. It moved away from the Cartesian emphasis upon the explicit and focal part of knowledge that could be described with clear, distinct, and indubitable ideas to an emphasis upon the implicit and subsidiary part of knowledge that is embodied in the person of the knower. Throughout his quest for a new theory of knowledge, Polanyi was in dialogue with theologians, encouraged particularly by J. H. Oldham, a leader in the ecumenical movement and the organizer of The Moot--a multidisciplinary group of theologians, philosophers, writers, and social thinkers discussing the crisis of modern culture.

  • Paul in the Grip of the Philosophers
    1 Nietzsche The Archetype of Pauline Deconstruction Peter Frick Das Christenthum dagegen zerdrückte und zerbrach den Menschen vollständig und versenkte ihn wie in tiefen Schlamm. –Nietzsche1 Introduction In this essay I am discussing the proliferation of interest in Paul, namely the recent and increasing interest of contemporary European philosophers in the thought of the Apostle. Perhaps to the chagrin of Pauline interpreters, there exists a vexing interest in the Pauline corpus by Continental philosophers. Alain Badiou, for example, a French Marxist philosopher employs Paul in the service of his own philosophical interest and project. “Truth be told,” says Badiou, “Paul is not an apostle or a saint. I care nothing for the Good News he declares, or the cult dedicated to him. Irreligious by heredity . I have never really connected Paul with religion . or to any sort of faith”2 which, for Badiou, is a mere fable. Giorgio Agamben, in contrast to Badiou, focuses on the first few verses in Paul’s Letter to the Romans in which he “proposes to restore Paul’s Letters to the status of the fundamental 1.

  • The Redemption of the Feeling in Kierkegaard's and Tillich's Thought
    ICOANA CREDINTEI. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH VoL. 2 No. 4/2016 The Redemption of the Feeling in Kierkegaard’s and Tillich’s thinking PhD. Lehel BALOGH Department of Philosophy, Kyungsung University Busan, SOUTH KOREA Page | 60 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In the modern era, with the development of the “objective”, scientific method, subjective, personal feelings and emotions have gradually become somewhat dubious sources of knowledge. A few religious thinkers, however, particularly those emerging from the existential tradition, have come to revitalize the belief in subjectivity, along with the trust in the authority of faith and inwardness in finding out important truths about our personal existence and about the human condition in general. In my paper I wish to investigate and compare the thoughts of two highly influential Christian philosophers of the 19th and the 20th century, respectively; those of Søren Kierkegaard and of Paul Tillich. These two unique thinkers, although living under considerably different historical circumstances, carried out strikingly similar analyses about the role of emotions and faith in human life, and through the emphasis of such phenomena as anxiety and despair they both attempted to “redeem” and reaffirm the significance of feelings and the subjective side of reality. Keywords: subjectivity, inwardness, anxiety, truth and faith, religious existentialism KIERKEGAARD’S QUEST FOR AUTHENTIC SUBJECTIVITY Existence and inwardness, in other words, bringing the ontological truth of subjectivity to the fore: this is what elevates Kierkegaard's philosophy to be the prototype of all other existential philosophies. While combating the then dominating Systemphilosophie of German Idealism and especially that of Hegel, he gradually formulates and develops his own characteristic philosophical attitude.

Naydenov, MDiv. Marquette University, 2014 This dissertation examines the efforts of three contemporary theologians whose work is a part of the search for a new methodology for doing ecclesiology located on the continuum between the Church’s identity and relevance. They are the Catholic theologian Nicholas Healy, Anglican theologian Ephraim Radner, and Presbyterian theologian Darrell Guder. They come to the subject matter from different ecclesiological backgrounds, and, as such, their work can be taken as representative in as much as it stands for their unique efforts to theologize within their own traditions and contexts.

The Task oj Destroying the History of Ontology All research-and not least that which operates within the range of the central question of Being-is an ontical possibility of Dasein. Dasein's Being finds its meaning in temporality. But temporality is also the con­ --which makes historicality possible as a temporal kind of Being . which Dasein itself possesses, regardless of whether or how Dasein is an entity 'in time'. Historicality, as a determinate character, is prior to what is called "history" (world-historical historizing).l "Historicality" stands for the state of Being that is constitutive for 20 Dasein's 'historizing' as such; only on the basis of such 'historizing' is anything like 'world-history' possible or can anything belong historically to world-history. In its factical Being, any Dasein is as it already was, and it is 'what' it already was. It is its past, whether explicitly or not.
