- Title
Endangerment and lament in the Covid Pandemic: Ways out of two theological impasses.
- Abstract
The essay analyses two causes of the eloquent silence of many churches during Corona: That it has become unthinkable for many theologians that while humans pose a threat to nature, nature itself threatens humans in turn. In addition, a conception of God that assumes only the suffering companion and human acts of solidarity blocks the theological road to the spiritual practice of lament. Beyond questionable imaginings of paradise and false notions of omnipotence, ways out of both impasses are shown.
