Book Synopsis
Narrative Theology After Auschwitz addresses the pressing question of the failure of Christian ethics during the Holocaust. It''s concern is to understand how and why so many Christians and Christian churches either cooperated with the Nazis or stood passively by while six million Jews were slaughtered. The goal is to uproot the propensity of Christians to equate ethics with unquestioning obedience to authority, and replace it with an Abrahamic chutzpah or audacity to question all authority, even God if necessary, in defense of the dignity of the stranger.
