Week 8 - Bevans, Ch. 8 (Transcendental)

We can't do "transcendental theology" unless the theologian is an "authentic, coverted subject." Transcendental thoelogy starts by examining oneself and the biases within. God reveals Godself within human experience. Anyone can "do" theology. Experience of past and present "cut" a contextual theology. Criticisms include accusations of being too abstract and oriented toward Western male understandings of knowing. McFague and Gonzales both listed as good examples of transcendental theologians.
