Summary: | This article constructs an ecological theology following Emmanuel Levinas' philosophy of religion. I suggest that the Son and Spirit express divinity through corporeal and temporal realities best described through Levinas' ideas concerning the an-archy and awakening of time. Following Levinas, and theologians such as Mark I Wallace, I construct a materialist theology that blurs the line between God and corporeal bodies, positing that such an understanding of the Son and Spirit re-sacralizes nature in a way that assists Christianity in overcoming the tenuous relationship between humanity and Earth. |
