Description
Summary:If the majority of process theologians and some feminist theologians are right, then God’s world can be understood as God’s body. A view that reveals environmental degradation in a different light. The essay ‘God’s World – God’s Body’ first of all presents Charles Hartshorne’s as well as Sallie McFague’s panentheistic conception of God. Both concepts stress the idea of God’s corporeality. In a second step the author hints at the concepts’ environmental implications; she explains what the consequences are, if Hartshorne and McFague are to be correct. Finally, the previously said opens out into showing in how far a movement ‘back-to-religion’ implies a ‘back-to-nature-’ movement.
