当代基督教人学观念的重构

以弘扬人的主体性为基本特征的近代启蒙思想构成对传统的基督教的人学观念的重大挑战。基督教神学家企图从以下四个方面作出回应 :1 .扩大主体意识的范围 ;2 .重新解释主体意识的结构 ;3.视主体的发展为一个辩证的过程 ;4 .强调信仰在主体实践中的作用。大多数当代基督教的神学家不否认人的主体的自主性 ,但批判近代哲学家的主体性观念过于狭隘 ,强调人的自主性需要有一个更深刻的基础 ,而这基础就是上帝。

Reconstruction of Contemporary Christian Anthropological Notion

The modern enlightenment spirit that has energetically carried forward the autonomy of human subject has greatly challenged the traditional Christian anthropological notion. The Christian theologians try to respond to this challenge in the following ways: 1. to enlarge the dimension of subjective consciousness; 2. to re interpret the structure of subjective consciousness; 3. to regard development of subjectivity as a dialectical process; 4. to emphasize the function of the belief in practice. Most of the Christian theologians do not deny the autonomy of human subject, but they criticize the narrowness of the notion of subjectivity maintained by modern philosophers. They insist that autonomy of human subject should be built on a more profound basis, namely on God.
