Questioning Back
Overview
This is the first of three essays in fundamental theology--along with Religious Pluralism and Christian Truth (1996) and Conventional and Absolute Truth (2015)--which attempt to reassess the status of Christian doctrinal language within the contemporary "regime of truth." In light of Heidegger's "overcoming of metaphysics," it revisits the age-old tension between Athens and Jerusalem--between the metaphysical structures of the Greek mind and the texture of the biblical events of revelation and salvation. A deconstructive reading that traces this tension in classical Christian texts--continued in later studies. Including Christianisme et philosophie chez Origene, Editions du Cerf, 2011--clears the ground for a step back to biblical realities as they are apprehended in contemporary consciousness.
