Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | At present theological social ethics is expected to provide prophetic social criticism; but theological social ethics itself also seeks to set its own theological-ethical agenda according to the example set by the Old Testament prophets. The article rejects this (self-made) claim to prophecy of social ethics. Under the conditions of pluralistic societies and their deliberative public spheres, prophecy can reasonably be claimed as an agenda of a "prophetic church," but social ethics is more likely to be skeptical towards this agenda owing to the polemogenous character of prophecy and its typical dramatization of political decisions. If social ethics is nonetheless under obligation to a "prophetic church" in a subsidiary way, it will help this church attest to its prophecy in public discourses, but in such a way as to "destroy" what is prophetical about this prophecy. |
