Eschatological Realism: A Christian View on Culture, Religion and Violence
Apstrakt
It was already Hannah Arendt, who, referring to Kant, emphasized the difference between truth and meaning, between practical common sense and opinions. It is interesting that the common sense approach is still completely dominant today, even among theologians, who are so often accused of irrationality – or perhaps just because of it. Theology seems to feel compelled to appeal to common sense, to show the modern world, that it is useful, or at least that it is not harmful. Our discussion in this essay concerns the relationship between religion and violence. We will try and explore the problem on the fundamental level, with no pretensions to offer yet another proposal in the style of “how to ...”, that modern requirements for practicality require and expect.
