Kirchen fungieren in der Moderne als öffentliche Zeichen der Transzendenz, abgekoppelt von Fragen der Kirchenmitgliedschaft. Sie sind aber offen für Religiosität jenseits der Konfessionalität. Kirchen fungieren in der Moderne als öffentliche Zeichen der Transzendenz, abgekoppelt von Fragen der Kirchenmitgliedschaft, aber offen für Religiosität jenseits der Konfessionalität und offen für Bedeutungszuschreibungen. Sie dienen als kollektiver Gedächtnisspeicher, für Inszenierungen im Quartier und in der Stadt, sie sind Refugien der Andersheit. Das neue Interesse an den Räumen der Religion muss der Theologie zu denken geben. Welche Veränderungen individueller Frömmigkeit, welche Transformation institutioneller Formen sind dabei im Spiel? Die Beiträge dieses Bandes zeigen, wie das neue Interesse an den Räumen der Religion der Theologie zu denken geben kann.

Mit der Erklärung «Nostra Aetate» des Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzils wurden die nichtchristlichen Religionen seitens der Katholischen Kirche erstmals positiv in den Blick genommen. Seitdem ist die Theologie der Religionen, die als neue Disziplin in der Folgezeit entstand, um Antwort auf die Frage bemüht, wie die nichtchristlichen Religionen angesichts des christlichen Wahrheitsanspruchs zu bewerten sind. Die Studie umreißt den Diskussionsstand der neuen Disziplin, beleuchtet die religionstheologischen Überlegungen zweier einflussreicher Theologen des 20. bzw. 21. Jahrhunderts, Karl Barth und Joseph Ratzinger, und fragt, inwiefern sich aus diesen Überlegungen Impulse für die Theologie der Religionen gewinnen lassen

Bibliography: leaves 124-129. ; The concept of religion in South Africa has been distorted by religious and racial prejuidices. This problem is particularly evident in public schools South African schools have taught Christianity as the only authentic religion, in fact as the only truth. Black parents have not been given a choice of religion for their children. The white government has decided for them Based on the assumption that Christianity is the only legitimate religion, the state has suppressed African indigenous religion at every level of society, but especially in the schools. The thesis examines the indigenous beliefs and practices of the black people in South Africa which were suppressed by Western culture and Christianity. It reveals all the distortions about African Religion by the outside researchers in order to uproot the black people from their way of life so as to colonise them. As a result all the black children are taught to regard Christianity as a "Religion" and their own religion as "culture", the implication being that blacks had no religion until the white man came with Christianity. The thesis also investigates the feelings of the black people about recovering their indigenous religion by having it as a subject in schools. The results reveal that the majority of blacks never dissociated themselves with their religion. Although most are Christians in principle, deep down they practise their own religion. It has also been discovered that there are great lamentations amongst most blacks over the "loss" of some of the indigenous practices. Most have felt alienated from their heritage and identity. It is therefore the interest of the blacks in South Africa that African Religion be taught in schools.
