Description:

"Dust that breaths argues for Christianity's continuing relevance in meeting the challenges of humanistic reflection in the global age. In it, Schweiker discusses and expands upon the distincitve arguments for theological humanism that he has developed with passion and eloquence. Part I develops the resoures of Christian theological anthropology in response to debates over the nature of religious identity, the labor of conscience, the meaning of the soul in religious and scientific discourse, and other topics. Part II engages prominent contemporary theologians and philosophers (including Paul Ricoeur, Iris Murdoch, Paul Tillich, Juergen Motmann, and others) in order to claify the distinctive shape of Christian humanistic commetment."--Jacket.
