Marilyn McCord Adams argues that the coherence of Christology in the 21st century requires that Christological works address “the horrors,” the horrendous evils that defy coherence and leave us with deep sentiments of disgust and revulsion. It is not enough to provide justifications to excuse God or rationalize God’s intentions. Christology must show how Christ defeats the horrors. This article explores the political Christology of African-American womanist theologian, M. Shawn Copeland for evidence of how Christ redeems us from the horrors of racial suffering. The article provides a pedagogy for horror recognition.
Resumen: Marilyn McCord Adams argumenta que la coherencia de la cristología en el siglo XXI requiere que las obras cristológicas aborden “los horrores”, los horrendos males que desafían la coherencia y nos dejan con profundos sentimientos de disgusto y repulsión. No es suficiente proporcionar justificaciones para excusar a Dios o racionalizar las intenciones de Dios. La cristología debe mostrar cómo Cristo vence los horrores. Este artículo explora la cristología política de la teóloga mujer afroamericana M. Shawn Copeland en busca de evidencia de cómo Cristo nos redime de los horrores del sufrimiento racial. El artículo proporciona una pedagogía para el reconocimiento del horror.
