Unterwegs zu einer Theologie des Kirchenrechts
Für Theologie und Kirchenrecht ist das Zweite Vatikanische Kon-zil der entscheidende Bezugspunkt. Seine Ekklesiologie ist der Maßstab für das Recht der Kirche, das die Vorgaben des Konzils in konkrete Normen zu übersetzen hat. Die Bestimmung des Verhältnisses von Kirchenrecht und Theologie wird dadurch genauso unerläßlich wie eine theologische Fundierung des Kirchenrechts, die den Vorgaben des Konzils gerecht wird. Die vorliegende Veröffentlichung entfaltet vor dem Hintergrund des vom Münchner Fundamentaltheologen Gottlieb Söhngen (1892-1971) in nuce vorgelegte Entwurfs einer Begründung des Rechts in der Kirche Elemente einer Fundamentalen Theologie des Kirchenrechts, die sich dieser Herausforderung stellt. Söhngens Ansatz wird dabei im Kontext seiner Theologie und der bisher vorgelegten Begründungen des Rechts in der Kirche betrachtet. Eine Einladung zum Dialog und zum Aufbau einer Rechtskultur in der Kirche.

Revision of the Codes, An Indian-European Dialogue
In the Second Vatican Council (1962 - 65) the Catholic Church reached a new viewpoint of itself, both internally and externally. The Declaration Dignitatis Humanae developed this opinion of the individual as dignified (DH 2) and as a person equipped with his or her own sense of conscience (DH 3). Based on this form of dialogical thinking, the Council can tolerate varying forms of Christianity other than the Catholic form and accept other religions or beliefs. The canonical translations of this theological spin to the human person (DH 1) in this book are presented by Indian and European authors with a view to a revision of the Codices. Prof Dr Adrian Loretan Since 1996, he has taught Canon an...
Religious Leadership and Christian Identity
Research into the field of religious leadership in relation to Christian identity is highly complex. What should be meant by religious leadership? What do we really mean if we talk about Christian identity? And most of all: what implies the and between religious leadership and Christian identity? Is there a necessary substantial relation between both? If so, how has leadership contributed in the past to Christian identity and how will it in the contemporary context stimulate a Christian identity?
The Virtues, Or The Examined Life
The characteristic feature of the Christian moral life remains the very person of Jesus Christ. As the Eternal Word of the Father, Christ supplies the universal, personal, and concrete norm for all moral comportment. When human action flows from the agent's union with Christ, human freedom meets up with its own graced source of energy. From the moment that a human creature encounters the triune God, the creature discovers who he is: For when God chooses a person to share in the blessed communion of his own life, the individual achieves a quality of personal being that only God can bestow. The more authentic our relationship with the Persons of the blessed Trinity becomes, the more the divine...

The Philosophical Quest for God
Philosophy is Love of wisdom. There is continual danger that the ports of the search will be taken as the final goal. The constitutive absoluteness of its goal points to an unknown absolute. This absolute creates a place for thinking about God. Thus the God-question plays its role in every philosophy, from antiquity to the present. The way begins with man as the entry-point of the question concerning transcendence. Then this question is shown to be directed toward God. The middle section is dedicated to the arguments concerning divine existence. After the arguments for the reasonableness of belief in God, we deal with the relationship of philosophical thought about God to living faith. Finally, the ways to a search for God carried out in trust, which certain thinkers have followed while recognizing its problems, is outlined.
Imagining the Catholic Church
