J. D. Willoughby
In recent years, the ongoing debate regarding whether Muslims and Christians worship the same God has predominantly been discussed from theological and philosophical perspectives. Yet, a significant gap exists in exploring this discourse through a sociological lens, particularly in understanding how the “Same God Question” resonates within the contexts of minority groups and the oppressed. This article addresses this gap by investigating the viewpoints of those often marginalized in discussions of religious identity. Drawing upon Henning Wrogemann’s observations on the complex interplay between contextualization to those in positions of influence versus the rights of the oppressed, as well as Robert Priest’s insights on experience-near theology, this article argues that it is possible for contextualization to one group to unwittingly perpetuate oppression to another group. Furthermore, it asserts the fundamental right of oppressed individuals to distance themselves from the overarching theological frameworks imposed upon them by hegemonic forces. These insights are subsequently applied to the broader discourse surrounding the “Same God Question” in order to highlight the complex interplay between contextualization, power, and oppression.

Despite exiting history only a few years after his death, Philip O’Flaherty, the Irish missionary sent to Uganda by the Church Missionary Society (CMS) in 1880, planted Uganda’s Protestantism and, with others, established the foundation that its present success can be understood. Upon arriving on March 18, 1881, he renewed the enthusiasm of a mission station struggling to find its footing in the East African country by conceptualizing a long-term vision for the mission and ensuring it was implemented. According to the historian J.A. Rowe, O’Flaherty possessed just those qualities of tact and savoir-faire that his colleagues lacked, making him a perfect fit for the mission field in Uganda. Among others, he performed the landmark first Protestant baptism in 1882, which had been five years in waiting. He was also a key member in forming the first church councils (one for men and another for women) whose membership included only Ugandans, a move that indigenized the church’s leadership for the first time.
