Recently I have seen on the website of Germany radios a book review gelesen.Es went to the new work by Beatrice von Weizsäcker entitled "Jesus Maria. Christianity for women ". What I've read that bothered me. At the very beginning: What is meant is not the whole book, but only the preface - it is here accordingly not a review, just getting to grips with the issues girl talk downloads that has kept von Weizsäcker in her foreword worth mentioning. Felt disturbed I was on two levels: as a person is biologically a woman interested in gender issues, and in its related self-perception very open. On the second level, as a student of Protestant theology. girl talk downloads
What bothers me that again proclaimed von Weizsäcker gender stereotypes girl talk downloads of past generations as self-evident facts: "Women girl talk downloads are generally more merciful than men." "Women are more peaceful than men [...] This is partly because they are not as ruthless as many men. "are identified, girl talk downloads these properties with those who ascribe von Weizsäcker Jesus of Nazareth:" There are also female virtues, which accounted girl talk downloads for Jesus, not just males. It contributed faith, hope and love. These three are not usually associated with men, but with women. "" The look on his life, on what he announced, did women is often closer than men. Capacity for suffering, compassion, charity, helpfulness, human service, all this is more typical for women than for men. "
This is the second level of one of my annoyance. Currently I'm girl talk downloads taking a seminar on research perspectives on the life of Jesus, and see once again how complex and often speculative is this research. From statements such as "Jesus girl talk downloads would not have wanted" or "Jesus was so and so" should waive any * r with common sense - because of what Jesus has just said and done, we simply do not know. Of course, there are the gospels, girl talk downloads the epistles and extra-biblical sources girl talk downloads that we can use to reconstruct the life of Jesus, but these texts were written by men. You are many things, but one thing they are not: historically reliable action reports. It can not be as von Weizsäcker assume that what "according to the Bible securitized" is actually was. This is in theology and not just since yesterday common sense, but for over 100 years. To understand this, one does not have to study theology otherwise - that the life stories of Jesus in the four Gospels or the two creation stories in Genesis are different, noted even a child.
It is both profitable and important that "lay" girl talk downloads on faith and religion write - especially in the Protestant priesthood of all believers applies. girl talk downloads It is otherwise frustrating when these lay then announce their own interpretation of the Bible and their personal girl talk downloads faith feeling as God / Jesus' sake. Personal faith is a level at which there is no right and wrong. But theology is a science and as such it has methods that need to be preserved when you give something to the claim to correctness by itself. Von Weizsäcker is a doctor of law, it is assumed that they are aware of the rules of scientific work. Why they denied in a scientific subject that has yet so desperately needed? Last but not least bothers me a swipe at the Feminist Theology: What the profitable because if it excludes men, asks the author. girl talk downloads Again, a Fitzelchen more science would not have hurt.
Feminist theology has developed in the 1960s. You stated and criticized that both the biblical texts as well as the majority of previous theology originated in patriarchal structures and designs as compensation to a theology that takes into account the interests of women specifically. Thus, for example, important - and certainly girl talk downloads the gender attributions of their time busting - Women of the Bible (finally) come to the deserved focus. As far as gender roles, there are two main currents of feminist theology: one looks for it to discover the "feminine side" of God. God meets in the Bible, for example, as a woman in labor, midwife or mother. The other points out that there are no gender before God: "it [in faith] is neither male nor female" (Gal 3:28).
Obviously girl talk downloads Feminist theology does not exclude men, as is assumed von Weizsäcker. Ironically, it makes it much more likely themselves by disqualifies men as ruthless, unfeeling and antisocial fixed price. One last point: The fact that von Weizsäcker girl talk downloads in terms of gender equality is critical of the Catholic Church, is definitely not unjustified. It is also easier to find fault with the "other" as well
