O auto-esvaziamento do logos : uma análise da cristologia quenótica de Gottfried Thomasius

A presente dissertação versa sobre o tema da cristologia quenótica do teólogo luterano alemão do século dezenove, Gottfried Thomasius, como uma possibilidade de resposta ao problema das duas naturezas, divina e humana, na pessoa de Jesus Cristo. Levando em consideração a cristologia tradicional conforme formulada pelo Concílio de Calcedônia o proponente do quenoticismo sugere que o Logos, o eterno Filho de Deus, auto-esvaziou-se voluntariamente de seus atributos não-essenciais ou aqueles que possuem uma relação direta com a natureza, ou seja, a onipresença, a onipotência e a onisciência. A Fórmula de Calcedônia se constitui no objeto pelo qual Thomasius promove uma reinterpretação com o intuito de torná-la inteligível à sua época, daí a dissertação oferecer a base de construção de tal teoria. No entanto, mostra-se como um teólogo preocupado em preservar suas tradições diante do criticismo do século XIX. Apresenta-se também o desenvolvimento posterior da cristologia quenótica em que os teólogos subseqüentes divergem em alguns pontos, desenvolvem outros, reagem e procuram superar problemas e dificuldades iniciais da teoria como formulada por Thomasius. Oferece adiante soluções inovadoras ao problema cristológico da encarnação com o apoio de John Hick que com sua perspectiva pluralista sugere uma abordagem ao tema da encarnação mediante o uso do discurso teológico como metáfora religiosa. E também Roger Haight ao final, propondo uma abordagem simbólica da formulação cristológica de Calcedônia como meio de enfatizar o seu aspecto positivo e isto feito de modo compreensível ao tempo presente (AU).

The culture of the Christian school

In discussions of educational administration theory, school culture has emerged as a contentious construct characterized by polarized positions. The underlying tensions are between conflicting structuralist and post-structuralist perspectives. These have led to views of Christian school culture and school organization as being either, on the one hand, static, positivist, hierarchical, individualistic and capitalistic or, on the other, dynamic, coherentist, communally interdependent, service oriented and Christ-centered. All schools demonstrate an ethos or organizational culture by default if not by design. It is therefore imperative for Christian school administrators, educators, and the community to consciously define the aspects of school culture that reflect the shared biblical values of the Christian school community.

"They did not believe me" : Adult survivors' perspectives of child sexual abuse by personnel in Christian Institutions

Executive Summary Child sexual abuse (CSA) in Christian Institutions continues to be of serious concern in public, criminal justice and institutional discourse. This study was conducted in conjunction with Project Kidsafe Foundation and sought the perspectives of Australian survivors of CSA by Personnel in Christian Institutions (PICIs). In total, 81 individual survivors responded to an online survey which asked them a range of questions about their current and childhood life circumstance; the nature, extent and location of abuse; grooming strategies utilised by perpetrators; their experiences of disclosure; and outcomes of official reporting to both criminal justice agencies and also official processes Christian institutions. Survey participants were given the option to further participate in a qualitative interview with the principal researcher. These interviews are not considered within this report. In summary, survey data examined here indicate that: • Instances of abuse included a range of offences from touching outside of clothing to serious penetrative offences. • The onset of abuse occurred at a young age: between 6 and 10 years for most female participants, and 11 and 13 years for male participants. • In the majority of cases the abuse ceased because of actions by survivors, not by adults within families or the Christian institution. • Participants waited significant time before disclosing their abuse, with many waiting 20 years or more. • Where survivors disclosed to family members or PICIs, they were often met with disbelief and unhelpful responses aimed at minimising the harm. • Where an official report was made, it was most often made to police. In these cases 53% resulted in an official investigations. • The primary reasons for reporting were to protect others from the perpetrator and make the Christian institution accountable to an external agency. • Where reports to Christian institutions were made, most survivors were dissatisfied with outcomes, and a smaller majority was extremely dissatisfied. This report reflects the long-held understanding that responding to CSA is a complex and difficult task. If effective and meaningful responses are not made, however, trauma to the survivor is most often compounded and recovery delayed. This report demonstrates the need for further independent analysis and oversight of responses made to CSA by both criminal justice, religious and social institutions. Meaningful change will only be accessible, however, if family, community and institutional environments are safe places for survivors to disclose their experiences of abuse and begin to seek ways of healing. There is much to be learnt from survivors that have already made this journey.

Identity, forgiveness and power in the management of child sexual abuse by personnel in Christian Institutions

The ongoing crises of child sexual abuse by Christian institutions leaders across the Anglophone world continue to attract public attention and public inquiries. The pervasiveness of this issue lends credence to the argument that the prevailing ethos functioning within some Christian Institutions is one which exercises influence to repeatedly mismanage allegations of child sexual abuse by Church leaders. This work draws on semistructured interviews conducted with 15 Personnel in Christian Institutions (PICIs) in Australia who were identified as being pro-active in their approach to addressing child sexual abuse by PICIs. From these data, themes of power and forgiveness are explored through a Foucaultian conceptualising of pastoral power and ‘truth’ construction. Forgiveness is viewed as a discourse which can have the power effect of either silencing or empowering victim/survivors. The study concludes that individual PICIs’ understandings of the role ofpower in their praxis influences outcomes from the deployment of forgiveness.
