‘Religion and Health’ – International meeting on comparative theology

At the Faculty of Theology of the University of Paderborn, from May 16th to 18th, 2022. A cooperation between the Center of Comparative Theology (ZeKK/Paderborn) and the newly founded Center of Comparative Theology and Social Issues (CTSI/Bonn).

Introduction : Health, healing and religious believes are linked in various ways. Suffering and guilt play major roles in different theologies, while religions also aim at providing resources for dealing with disease and trauma in a meaningful way. The Pandemic has shed additional light on the relevance of the question how religious believers and institutions are facing times of health crises and how they incorporate them into their own theological thinking.

A la Faculté de théologie de l’Université de Paderborn, du 16 au 18 juin 2022. Une coopération entre le Centre de théologie comparée (ZeKK/Université de Paderborn) et le nouveau Centre de théologie comparée et de questions sociales (CTSI/Université de Bonn).

Introduction :
La santé, la guérison et les croyances religieuses sont liées de diverses manières. La souffrance et la culpabilité jouent un rôle majeur dans les différentes théologies, tandis que les religions visent également à fournir des ressources pour faire face à la maladie et aux traumatismes de manière significative. La pandémie a apporté un éclairage supplémentaire sur la pertinence de la question suivante :
Comment les croyants et les institutions religieuses font face aux périodes de crises sanitaires et comment ils les intègrent dans leur propre réflexion théologique.

مقدمة: ترتبط الصحة والشفاء والمعتقدات الدينية بطرق مختلفة. يلعب المعاناة والشعور بالذنب دورًا رئيسيًا في مختلف اللاهوت ، بينما تهدف الأديان أيضًا إلى توفير الموارد للتعامل مع المرض والصدمات بطرق مفيدة. لقد ألقى الوباء مزيدًا من الضوء على أهمية السؤال التالي: كيف يتعامل المؤمنون والمؤسسات الدينية مع أوقات الأزمات الصحية وكيف يدمجونها في تفكيرهم اللاهوتي.
