ABSTRACT In this article we reflect on how appropriate the Church’s sexual morality is in the specific context of persons with intellectual disabilities. Traditional Church morality leaves few possibilities, while contemporary prevailing morality does. Pope Francis brings renewal by applying pastoral mercy and accepting people with intellectual disabilities, even if their sexual behaviour continues to be judged as sinful. This can come across as condescending. Therefore, we are looking for a way to revise Christian sexual ethics. We adopt an open and respectful attitude towards the sexual needs and experiences of persons with intellectual disabilities. To this end, we engage in an ethical dialogue with them and other persons involved. We build an ethical dynamic of safeguarding minimum boundaries and fostering their responsibility in dialogue. Therefore, we develop seven criteria of responsibility as a moral compass to assess sexual behaviour.

ABSTRACT This paper engages David Fitch’s idea of faithful presence with the lived experiences of autism to explore how the church can embody the concept of unity in diversity. To belong as God’s family with people considered the least among us begins with seeing them as persons, not projects. Next, the power differential in a giver-receiver relationship needs to be addressed. Then, following the lead of the Spirit into Christ’s presence, church members submit to one another mutually and equally, receiving each other as gifts of God. Finally, as the body of Christ, we tend to Christ in our shared life inside and outside the church. In the process, all in the body encounter Christ, who transforms our hearts towards loving one another, desiring to share each other’s burdens and joy, thus becoming one in Christ.

ABSTRACT The ‘charity’ model of disability has been soundly rejected by individuals with disabilities for one that emphasises rights. Although good to be rejected, rights also have limits, as evidenced by the ongoing transgression against the rights of persons with disabilities (PWD). What new insights in Christian theology might positively impact this? It will be difficult, as long as the charity model continues to pervade Christian faith communities. While researching the rupture between practice and the faith proclaimed within the US Catholic Church regarding individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), I discovered a meta-narrative which I named the shadow narrative, because it eclipses the light of the Gospel, and leads to the devaluation and marginalisation of individuals with IDD, or any other group of people not valued by the normative culture. The co-opted version of charity is by far its most popular thread. By shining a light on the shadow narrative to reveal its undercurrents and returning to scriptural texts that underpin Christian charity, I will propose a case for Rights and Charity to renew attitudes about and opportunities for individuals with disabilities within faith communities, which could then become leaven for society.

ABSTRACT Although marked by suspicion reaching back to sectarianism among early colonisers, theology endures in Australian institutions – albeit not always being welcome in universities. Creative responses to exclusion from university contexts have emerged over time – some more stable, others quite fragile. However, colonialism morphs across the sector, and longstanding injustices remain unresolved. This article charts institutional developments and then explores gender and colonial history as areas of ongoing tension.

ABSTRACT Christian Theology at the German university falls between two stools in many ways: Theology is an academic discipline and participates in the freedom of science; at the same time, theology is linked to the church by laws between the churches and the Federal States; furthermore, theology serves to train school teachers and/or ministers, though it also contributes to the life of the university in conjunction with other disciplines and fields of study. Looking at the field of church history in particular, this paper argues that the tensions that theology finds itself in are productive tensions and that the disputes that surround the complex situation of theology – faculties of theology in particular – at the German university can provoke theology to ponder on the balance between its commitment to the Christian faith on the one hand and to uncompromising academic rigour on the other hand.

ABSTRACT The place of theology is under threat in the modern university. It is denied a place, except insofar as it is useful in the training of religious professionals or as a phenomenon in its own right, on the grounds that relate to an unscientific scientism that both makes metaphysical assumptions it itself does not recognise as scientific or denies its own epistemological commitments. This article argues that the notion of education in ‘liberal knowledge’ or ‘universal knowledge’, the idea at the heart of John Henry Newman’s The Idea of a University provides a sufficiently robust counter to these assaults on the place of theology proper in the modern university and that refusing such a place to it undermines the claim of universities to use the name at all. It is precisely the uselessness of theology that guarantees its place in the university committed to universal knowledge and universal enquiry.

Successive genealogists of theology have long explored the significance of the University of Berlin’s foundation in 1809/10 and, in particular, the instrumental voice of Friedrich Schleiermacher in reconfiguring theology as a modern university discipline. In recent years, a handful of important monographs have further elucidated the meaning of Wissenschaft (unsatisfactorily translated as ‘science’ in English and defining, broadly speaking, a common ethos/standard of intellectual endeavour across academic disciplines) as well as the ‘historical turn’ in German and Englishspeaking theology – notably by Johannes Zachhuber, Zachary Purvis and Joshua Bennett. Vander Schel and DeJonge offer this insightful and complementary volume – the first in Mohr Siebeck’s new Christentum in der modernen Welt series – that features a series of essays giving both cogent overviews of the philosophical and methodological dynamics of this crucial context for modern theology’s development and relationship to the research university. Much of the material within offers lucid surveys: Jacqueline Mariña’s essay on ‘Kant, Schleiermacher, and the Study of Theology’ and Christophe Chalamet’s contribution on Karl Barth would be very helpful reading for any graduate student trying to understand the task of theology since the Enlightenment, for example. Other contributions offer more focussed accounts of individual theologians and church historians that elucidate the whole and offer teasing pathways for future conversations, on occasion with rich personal and contextual detail. See, for example, Zachary Purvis’s illuminating reassessment of the charmingly donnish August Neander, whose extraordinary output and influence came to define religious historicism within Germany and beyond (see also Joshua Bennett’s recent article on Neander in the Historical Journal in this respect). Articles on Baur (Peter Hodgson), Ritschl and Eduard Zeller (Zachhuber), as well as the Roman Catholics J.S. Drey and J. Kuhn (Grant Kaplan) and, at the other end of the century, Harnack (Jonathan Teubner) and Troeltsch (Christian Polke), offer fresh and up-to-date readings in the greats of nineteenth-century German theologian, from Tübingen as much as Berlin. These are complemented by several articles on German historicism abroad with an overview of Newman’s influential redefinition of the university by Matthew Muller and Kenneth Parker, the German impact on British theology (via the Cambridge theologians Connop Thirlwall and Julius Hare, in particular) by Mark Chapman, and the role of Henry Boynton Smith in the United States as a ‘transatlantic bridge-builder’ by Annette G. Aubert. These perhaps sit less convincingly within the volume; the influence of German historical theology in its changing forms on English-speaking theology arguably extends beyond the remit of the title and seems somewhat confined to the mid-nineteenth century, thus losing something of the international dynamism of Protestant historic
历届神学谱系学家长期以来一直在探索柏林大学1809/10年成立的意义，尤其是弗里德里希·施莱尔马赫在将神学重新配置为现代大学学科方面的工具性声音。近年来，一些重要的专著进一步阐明了Wissenschaft（英语中不令人满意地翻译为“科学”，广义上定义了跨学科的共同精神/智力努力标准）的含义，以及德语和英语神学的“历史转折”——尤其是Johannes Zachuber，Zachary Purvis和Joshua Bennett。范德谢尔（Vander Schel）和德容格（DeJonge）提供了这本富有洞察力和互补性的书，这是莫尔·西贝克（Mohr Siebeck）的《现代世界的基督》（Christentum in der modern Welt）系列中的第一本，其中有一系列文章，对现代神学的发展以及与研究型大学的关系的这一关键背景下的哲学和方法论动态进行了令人信服的概述。其中的许多材料都提供了清晰的调查：例如，杰奎琳·马里尼亚关于“康德、施莱尔马赫和神学研究”的文章，以及克里斯托弗·查拉梅对卡尔·巴特的贡献，对于任何试图理解启蒙运动以来神学任务的研究生来说，都是非常有帮助的。其他贡献提供了对个别神学家和教会历史学家的更集中的描述，阐明了整体，并为未来的对话提供了调侃的途径，有时还提供了丰富的个人和背景细节。例如，请参阅Zachary Purvis对迷人的多愁善感的August Neander的启发性重新评估，他的非凡产出和影响力定义了德国内外的宗教历史主义（另请参阅Joshua Bennett最近在《历史杂志》上发表的关于Neander这方面的文章）。关于鲍尔（彼得·霍奇森饰）、里施尔和爱德华·泽勒（扎胡贝尔饰），以及罗马天主教徒J·S·德雷和J·库恩（格兰特·卡普兰饰），本世纪另一端的哈纳克（乔纳森·特乌布纳饰）和特洛尔奇（克里斯蒂安·波尔克饰）的文章，为19世纪德国神学家的伟大人物提供了新鲜和最新的解读，从图宾根到柏林。这些补充了国外关于德国历史主义的几篇文章，其中概述了Matthew Muller和Kenneth Parker对纽曼对大学的有影响力的重新定义，Mark Chapman对德国对英国神学的影响（尤其是通过剑桥神学家Connop Thirlwall和Julius Hare），以及安妮特·G·奥伯特在美国扮演的“跨大西洋桥梁建设者”亨利·博因顿·史密斯的角色。这些可能不太令人信服地放在卷内；德国历史神学以其不断变化的形式对英语神学的影响可以说超出了标题的范围，似乎在某种程度上局限于19世纪中期，从而在20世纪之交失去了新教历史神学的国际活力。关于德国大学的发展，也可能有一篇有用的文章或介绍，尽管大多数文章都有益于关注国家机构不断变化的政治背景。
