Thank You, bishop, for a wonderful lecture on theology that reaches beyond the saturated theological "jargon" towards the lived experience of man, of me. Thank you so much!
The thing I find confusing is why we have to go through all sorts of hoops in order to try to understand the meaning of god. Why doesn't god just tell us all directly? It would stop an awful lot of death and destruction that arises over the disagreements among mankind when it comes to defining the meaning of god. If anyone says that god has told people directly, they should explain why there is still so much disagreement in the world.
I would question his assessment of Wittgenstein as the "greatest" philosopher of the 20th century. Most famous, perhaps, but that is another thing entirely.
@@aclark903disagree massively. Especially when it comes to metaphysics and religion he managed to overturn all the of the mistakes that go back to Descartes and reveal what were actually talking about when we talk about being and God. That’s why sophisticated theologians like Williams are such big fans of him
This man is an example all of the thinking that is undermining the faith. Christianity is a religion of revelation, It is the religion of man's encounter with the living God who reveals Himself in time. Faith is not a matter of looking at yourself and others or ways of living. This is the realm of philosophy not theology.
He is a very sincere and thoughtful and gentle Christian however perhaps a” little “ too intellectual. For me theology at its simplest is experiencing God. Knowing through experiencing his love
What an utter delight to listen to the Archbishop.

The mind of a wise man is required to study theology.
God is required to study the Bible (1 Cor 2:12-16).

The greatest. He changed everything

He has taken God out of theology or put Him in the mix as an after thought. This man is not Catholic. God help our seminary students.

Rowan Williams. One of the biggest fakes out there.

Know what? What knowledge? You can't ground Christianity in a personal experience,
We theologians call your position "fideism" it's true because I believe ot.
Jesus knew the hearts of all. Its not a theological experience.
