生态危机的宗教根源——莫尔特曼生态思想述论

The Religion Reason for the Ecological Crisis

莫尔特曼认为,用"生态灾难"来描述当今的生态危机是准确的,因为当今的生态危机是整个系统的危机,不仅是人类自然家园的丧失,而且也是人类精神家园的丧失。危机的根源在于人的错误的上帝观,即人认为因为其与上帝的相像而自认为是自然的主人,为此,他提出人类的自然化,认为自然具有主体性,而人类才是客体。莫尔特曼的生态思想突破了传统教会对待生态环境的主要模式,既不是简单的伙伴模式,也不是管理模式,更不是统治模式,而是人与自然充分和谐的生存共同体。这种以生态方式去思考和行动,对于人类改善自我意识和洞察力,对于基督教在现代发展中的中国的生态环境问题思考都具有一定的现实意义。

Jurgen Moltmann is one of the most famous theologists in German. He thinks the ecological crisis today is very serious and it is suitable to say it is an ecological disaster. Because men are not only losing their living environments, but also losing their spiritual home. The reason lies in the wrong concept for God, that is men have the image like God makes them think they are the master of nature. He proposes his view of men's naturalization, thinking nature is the subject while man is the object. The author thinks Jurgen Moltmann break through the old model for the traditional church dealing with the environment. His viewpoint could benefit the environmental problem solving in China today.
