Anna Case-Winters

Reconstructing a Christian Theology of Nature (eBook, ePUB)

Down to Earth

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book takes the current criticism of Christian tradition to heart and invites a reconsideration of the problematic elements: its desacralization of nature; its preoccupation with the human being to the neglect of the rest of nature; its dualisms and elevation of the spiritual over material reality, and its habit of ignoring or resisting scientific understandings of the natural world.
