episode 19: My Agnostic Christianity as a Christian Agnostic, My Christian Agnosticism as an Agnostic Christian, My Agnostic Theism, and My being a Secular Jesus Follower!
“Christian agnosticism is a theological position drawing influences from Christianity as well as agnosticism. Christian agnostics hold that it is difficult or impossible to be sure of anything beyond the basic tenets of the Christian faith. They believe that God or a higher power might exist, that Jesus may have a special relationship with God, might in some way be divine, and that God might perhaps be worshipped. This belief system has deep roots in the early days of the Church.[1]”
Sometimes I have moments of Christian Atheism Christian atheism - Wikipedia: "Christian atheism is a form of Christianity that adopts the teachings, narratives, symbols, or communities associated with Jesus without accepting the literal existence of God. Christian atheism takes many forms, and some include an ethics system, are types of cultural Christianity, and take a Christian theological position, such as Thomas J. J. Altizer, in which the theistic belief in the transcendent or interventionist God of Christianity is rejected or absent in favor of finding God totally in the world. Others, such as William Hamilton, follow Jesus in a godless world. Hamilton's Christian atheism is similar to Jesuism. Thomas Ogletree, Frederick Marquand Professor of Ethics and Religious Studies at Yale Divinity School, lists these four common beliefs:[1][2]
- The assertion of the unreality of God for our age, including the understandings of God which have been a part of traditional Christian theology.
- The insistence upon coming to grips with contemporary culture as a necessary feature of responsible theological work.
- Varying degrees and forms of alienation from the church as it is now constituted.
- Recognition of the centrality of the person of Jesus in theological reflection."
I have moments of Jesuism: "Jesuism - Wikipedia." "
It is to restore Jesus' sayings to their original purity.
It is to eradicate from the Gospels the interpolations of the Middle Ages.
It is to relate the misconceptions revealed by recent archaeological research.
It is to present Jesus from an economic viewpoint.
It is to break through the spell spectral of Cosmic Credulity.
It is to toll the knell of schism through Jesusism.[13]"
"Jesuism or Jesusism is a belief system considering itself to be the true representation of the teachings of Jesus and contrasts itself from the teachings of mainstream Christianity.[1] In particular, the term is often contrasted with Pauline Christianity and the mainstream church dogma of Nicene Christianity.[2][3]"
