總結:The current educational debate in Germany is characterized by a short-sighted economic and utilitarian way of thinking, which creates an increasingly unfavourable environmental for the humanities and especially for protestant theological faculties. Not only do the theological faculties have their rightful place at our universities, they also have an important function as vehicles of culture. But only if they fulfill their educational ideal in their own teaching and research will they be able to influence the current educational debate. Therefore systematic theology and practical theology must meet the challenge to assert and to develop their own educational ideal within the larger context of cultural studies in the tradition of the Reformation and of Schleiermacher. The scientific community will only be influential to the extent that there exists a culture of intellectual debate which includes a culture of respect for the whole diversity of thought. Traditionally, this has been one of the great achievements of Protestantism which, after all, had its beginnings in the world of academic and whose greatest traditions rest upon the fact that the diversity of opinion became an integral part of its academic institutions.
