\u27You Shall worship God on This Mountain\u27: A Theological Reading of Discrimination & Dehumanization at Denison
No full textThis article examines protests against prejudice on Denison\u27s campus in 2007 through the theological perspectives of M. Douglas Meeks and Jurgen Moltmann. The author argues that these two theologians offer pieces of a theology that can categorize the experiences at Denison during that time. First, Meeks thinks of communities as households that are asked to work as loving and supportive families. Meeks also asks Christians to remember the triune God and to use the example of that relationship three persons in one, all working in community for the love of others to serve as a model for their own relationships. Moltmann\u27s theology is an eschatological theology of hope. According to him, the promises of God are always out in front of humanity, and it must constantly strive to make those promises a part of life. Human actions should be defined by the ever-present and ever-increasing promises of God. To act in accordance with those promises, is to create the kingdom of God on earth. This means radically redefining the way society functions to value every human life and show it the dignity it deserves. Toler claims that both of these theologies were in use during the time of the protests against prejudice on Denison\u27s campus in 2007, and challenges students, faculty, and staff to continue to allow these theologies to motivate their actions
