- Abstract
- This paper explores the possibility of theology for the weak through a comparative study on John D. Caputos Weak Theology and Ahn Byung Mus Minjung theology. Their theological programs share some important common features in that: both put emphasis on the events over doctrines and traditions; acknowledges the importance of Quotidianism or Sitz im Leben; and search for the possibility of theology for the weak and the oppressed. However, what is different is the way in which they draw their conclusions. On one hand, Minjung Theology seems to maintain what Caputo critically describes as the traditional notion of the Strong God. Yet, Ahns program can be understood as to coincide with Caputos postmodern critique of the Christian tradition, in the sense that Minjung theology is open to the possibility of reinterpreting the Bible and the doctrines of the church in light of new Christ-like events and their transformative meanings in ever-changing human history. On other hand, Weak Theology tries to deconstruct the notion of the Strong God as well as the authority of the church and its traditional doctrines. Nevertheless, Caputos program does not entirely deny the validity of salvific grand narratives - the charge that is often leveled against postmodern theologies. Rather, he searches for the possibility of achieving goodness and justice based on the conviction that, by the virtue of the weakness of God, the poor and the oppressed can participate in salvation history. In the end, the main purpose of this paper is to show that Caputos Weak theology and Ahns Minjung theology complement each other in their respective searches for theology for the weak.
