Synopsis

Contributing Authors

The volume investigates the meaning of Christian faith from the perspective of a scientific worldview and attempts to overcome dogmatism in theology and sciences.

Dogmas are often seen as a kind of restriction that prevents development and restrains freedom of thought. However, the opposite is true. They help guide thinking and are also a hermeneutic key to reading human reality. The purpose of this volume is to show the paradoxically undogmatic nature of Christian dogmatics. From various perspectives, the contributors encourage a renewal of methodological consciousness within dogmatics. Their aim is to reopen the possibility of understanding the truths of faith in real dialogue with the world view provided by the achievements of other fields of knowledge, from the arts to the humanities and the sciences. Thus, the volume presents a symphonic, dialogical, integral dogmatics that provides an essential impetus for a theology that is committed to life, pastoral care and ecumenism.
