Learning outcomes
To understand the method of the fundamental-theological research. To gain knowledge on the concept of God`s Revelation in the Christian religion with its center in the person and the mission of Jesus Christ, of his Kingdom of God's preaching and his Eastern victory. The course, too, focuses (in accordance with FR 67) on the "auditus tempers et alterius" study. I.e.: to listen to the contemporary humans and their capacities of act of faith. Following the "Roman school" of fundamental theology the course gives way to the topic of credibility/meaningfullness of the Christian God Revelation (GS 22).
Students will be able to understand main questions of the fundamental theology. As a consequence they will be able to defend the basis of the Christian faith.
