Abstract

AbstractObviously, the vera religio must have to do with truth. Truth, however, is traditionally considered to be the successful correspondence between thought (or language) and world (or reality). Now, there is a prominent tradition in modern theology that puts this approach upside down in claiming that the truth of religious convictions entails a certain kind of inadaequatio concerning the world. Three influencial examples of this very tradition - Hermeneutic Theology (E. Fuchs, E. Jüngel), Political Theology (D. Sölle, J. Moltmann), and Pacifist Peace Ethics (J.H. Yoder, S. Hauerwas) - are critically discussed and presented in terms of their specific rhetorics of theological (or even salvific) non-correspondence between faith’s possibility and the reality of the world.
