Christian atheism
Christian atheism is a form of Christianity that rejects theistic claims of Christianity, but draws its beliefs and practices from Jesus' life and/or teachings as recorded in the New Testament Gospels and other sources.
Christian atheism takes many forms:
- Some include an ethics system.
- Some are types of cultural Christianity.
- Some Christian atheists take a theological position in which the belief in the transcendent or interventionist God is rejected or absent in favor of finding God totally in the world (Thomas J. J. Altizer).
- Others follow Jesus in a godless world (William Hamilton).
- Hamilton's Christian atheism is similar to Jesuism.
I'm sorry, what kind of Christianity rejects the idea of it being theistic?
It is based on the single divinity of God.
That's what Christianity.. is.
The fundamentals of it are based on the happening in the New Testament Gospels (NOT other sources).. But Jesus was one of the Godhead.. the Son of the Three in One.
this makes absolutely no sense to me.
You can't have an ethics system without something to build it on, you can't base a Christian belief system without Christ (therefore "culture" doesn't matter), you can't have a solid belief in one God if you believe he's not transcendent or interventionist, you can't find God in the world because the world doesn't fulfill who He is, He created the world and everything in it.. You can't follow Jesus if you believe He is who He says He is.
There is no basis for atheism in Christianity..
Again.. this makes absolutely no sense.
