ABSTRACT

In this article, I examine the possibility of widening the concept of imago Dei so as to include (other) animals next to humans by interacting with the theologians David Clough, David Fergusson and Celia Deane-Drummond. In light of the challenges of creaturely existence in the Anthropocene, I conclude that the traditional idea that only humans are created in the image and likeness of God should be maintained. Such a position does not need to be diminishing to other animals, can take seriously scientific insights on evolution and classic theological arguments, and is especially relevant given the era of the Anthropocene.

按上帝的形象创造:人类和非人类动物?

摘要

在这篇文章中,我通过与神学家大卫·克劳夫、大卫·弗格森和西莉亚·迪恩-德拉蒙德的互动,研究了拓宽天神概念的可能性,以便将(其他)动物包括在人类之外。鉴于人类世中生物存在的挑战,我得出的结论是,只有人类按照上帝的形象和样式被创造的传统观念应该保持。这样的立场不需要贬低其他动物,可以认真对待进化论和经典神学论点的科学见解,并且考虑到人类世的时代,这一点尤其重要。
