Abstract

The issue of ecological theological discourses has been neglected and abandoned for a long time by the end of the theological spectrum, which resulted in the topic of Christian faith as a co­-perpetrator in the context of the current ecological crisis. It is above all an anthropocentric turn in Christian faith and the interpretation of the Biblical myth of creation that has been identified as a reason which has led to the spread of ecological disaster and despotic dominance of man over nature. The theological discourse in the 1980s, however, strongly reinforced the idea of ecology, which is related to an increasingly urgent ecological state. The theological space begins to apply, in particular through the ideas of the Evangelical JĂźrgen Moltmann, a certain turn to creation, where, along with the accenting task of the Kingdom, the relation at the level of man­-nature is brought to the attention of man as a creation. Turning towards creation along with responsibility for the veil was a change in the paradigm of theological thinking that opened up space for the accentuation of Matthew Fox‘s “living cosmology” and, in particular, the “mystique of defiance” of the Protestant theologian Dorothee SĂślle. It is precisely the ideas of “ecotheology” or “green theology” that center on creation in its divine unity, Dorothee SĂślle considers the basis for consistently accentuating relations and reciprocity in the context of creation where the essential aspect is active participation and responsibility for connivance which God has entrusted to humanity.

Summary

Obrat ke stvoření v teologickém diskurzu Dorothee Sölle

V osmdesátých letech minulého století vznikly v kontextu ekologické krize teologické diskuse, k nimž výrazně přispěl svými úvahami protestantský teolog Jürgen Moltmann, který se zacílil na stvoření, tedy na pneumatologickou nauku o stvoření.[6]. Německá protestantská teoložka Dorothee Sölle, profilující se v kontextu feministické teologie osvobození, v rámci ekologické problematiky inklinuje zejména ke směrům ekofeminismu, jež diskutují genderové otázky spolu s ekologickou sensitivitou.[10] Ovlivněna zejména myšlenkami J. Ford Ruether,[11] pohlíží na stvořený svět zejména skrze vztahovost a vzájemnost mezi lidmi, přírodou a Bohem, přičemž společným jmenovatelem je v rámci těchto vztahů zejména láska a práce.[12] Jinými slovy, Sölle na pozadí ústředních hodnot vztahovosti a vzájemné potřeby deklaruje pohled na stvoření prizmatem svatosti a dobroty.[13]. Pro Sölle, stejně tak jako pro Moltmanna, má člověk být partnerem přírody a stvoření, nikoliv vykořisťovatelem neobnovitelných zdrojů planety, a nemá se podílet na ničení země v žádné formě.[15]
