Theology and the Crisis in Darwinism

MODERN THEOLOGY, Issue 2 2002
Anthony D. Baker
In the past decade, the scientific challenges to "orthodox Darwinism" have multiplied rapidly, such that it is no longer unthinkable that natural selection's days as a universal law are numbered. But if this is the case, theologians have their work cut out for them. If Darwin's law proves to be historically and scientifically false, a new horizon appears for the discourse between theology and natural science. What will orthodox Christianity make of the crisis in Darwinism? This article, which follows the methodological imperative of "Radical Orthodoxy", employs Aquinas and contemporary "post-Darwinian" science to trace a space for a theological discourse beyond both natural selection and natural theology.

ON THE USE OF GILLIAN ROSE

THE HEYTHROP JOURNAL, Issue 5 2007
VINCENT LLOYD
Three recent attempts to draw resources for theology from the work of philosopher and social theorist Gillian Rose are examined. Although her work has received little attention, it has been influential in the development of ,Radical Orthodoxy'. Yet her dense style has led to many misunderstandings of her work. Each of the three attempts to draw theological resources from her work examined is problematic, either because it misrepresents Rose's work or because it reads Rose too narrowly. The outline of a positive account of Rose's philosophy is developed through critical engagements with these three readers. I suggest that an alternative theological appropriation of Rose that focuses on her account of the theological virtues, particularly faith and love, might be possible. [source]

Why Philosophy Abides for Aquinas

THE HEYTHROP JOURNAL, Issue 3 2001
Wayne J. Hankey
In Truth in Aquinas Catherine Pickstock and John Milbank continue Radical Orthodoxy's ,reinterpretation' of the history of philosophy and theology by evaluating philosophy as metaphysics so that ,metaphysics collapses into sacra doctrina' in Thomas Aquinas. Their strategy for saving Aquinas from Heideggerian ,onto-theology' is the opposite of that Jean-Luc Marion who in ,Saint Thomas d'Aquin et l'onto-théo-logie' keeps philosophy and metaphysics distinct from sacred teaching. The article examines some of the questions involved by reconsidering the nature of philosophy as textual commentary in late Antiquity and in the Middle Ages. It goes on to examine what Aquinas means by ,the truth of things', and concludes by looking at how he treats the aspects of metaphysics and the relation of metaphysics and sacra doctrina. Hankey judges that Marion is right on this question. The author suggests that what is involved with Milbank and Pickstock is not a reinterpretation of Aquinas. What they have written depends on mistakes and misrepresentations of basic points in his teaching, e.g, participation, intellectual intuition and abstractions, God's being and his existence in things, with the result that Thomas looks more like Descartes or Spinoza than himself.

THE ENCHANTMENTS OF MAMMON: NOTES TOWARD A THEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF CAPITALISM

MODERN THEOLOGY, Issue 3 2005
EUGENE McCARRAHER
Tales of "disenchantment" dominate modern intellectual life, and especially accounts of the cultural history of capitalism. Yet Weberian sociology, and especially Marxist notions of "commodity fetishism", point to the persistence of "enchantment" in the capitalist imagination. If we reformulate these notions of "enchantment" and "disenchantment" in theological terms of sacrament, then we can write new histories of capitalism, as well as articulate new forms of political and cultural criticism. Borrowing from "radical orthodoxy", the author takes a Cook's Tour of "disenchantment", explores the possibilities afforded by "sacramental" conceptions of materialism, and gestures toward an account of American cultural history shaped by a sacramental materialism.
