This article seeks to offer insights into what is called a radical public theology . Such a theology views contemporary religious uncertainty as an opportunity rather than as a site for apologetic resistance. The article sketches the linguistic-hermeneutic turn, before reflecting on an example of a new proposal of faith from the philosopher Simon Critchley. In conversation with the prominent radical theologian, John D. Caputo, the article argues that Critchley’s (ir)religious faith can be read idiomatically as a radical theology. This reading carves a space for a public theological reflection, which is ‘public’ because it engages and is responsive to the call of ‘the least of these’ in society. Finally, it is argued that a radical public theology offers resources toward the notion of ‘meontological communities,’ functioning to deepen theological reflection on the public nature of faith and life of the church.
