| Résumé: | If theology interprets itself onto-theo-logically and God is the highest being, it will have no use for Nietzsche as a resource. Such a theology would demand that God should always make sense to our intellects in their present (finite and fallen) condition — thus subjecting itself to Feuerbach’s objections. Nietzsche is a resource, not like Scripture and tradition, but like a prophet whose perspectivisic hermeneutics of finitude illuminates our creation and whose hermeneutics of suspicion illuminates our fall. A number of objections are addressed, including whether this is not bringing coals to the Newcastle of theology practiced at the American Academy of Religion. |
