Book Description
At the heart of Drewermann's non-violent interpretation of key Christian beliefs is his analysis of a violent image of God that characterizes traditional interpretations of sin and the cross. His empathic critique of the clerical mentality, ideology, and culture ( The Cleric ) led to his being silenced by Roman Catholic authorities in 1991.
