FEBRUARY: Why did it take the Crucifixion to save us?
Perhaps
the single-most important theological question in Christianity is: what is the
relationship between the death of Christ on the Cross and the forgiveness of
sins and the redemption of the human race? René Girard’s contribution to this
question is indispensable to the task which the Second Vatican Council
implicitly assigned to us, namely, that of developing a theological
anthropology. In this session of the E.R.I. we will look to Girard’s work and
suggest some of its surprising – and surprisingly orthodox – theological
implications.
