THEO 351 AA 2232 is geared towards an ultimate understanding of human ethics and ethical living with respect to a notion of theology, which we will ultimately understand as an orientation towards (and a puzzling over) a notion or sense of transcendent being.

Course Objectives

•  To assist students in developing an approach to understanding the terms “theology,” “ethics,” “transcendent being” and “theological ethics” and the significance of understanding how these different terms may be interpreted;
• To assist students in developing a foundational understanding of some significant theologians/philosophers of ethics in the Western theological tradition;
•  To develop skills for critically approaching scholarly literature and contemporary issues in theological ethics; and
•  To develop tools for participating in theological ethics as a self-reflective activity of expanding horizons, and consider the expansion of horizons as pointing towards an idea of transcendent being.
