FAITH AS DIALECTICAL INTERPLAY OF AFFECTION AND COGNITION IN NEWMAN AND “PANDAMA” (INTEGRATIVE SENSING) OF FILIPINO CHRISTIANS
Keywords:
CHRISTIANS, NEWMANAbstract
No theology may claim to “fall from heaven” so to speak. All
theological reflections are rooted in a specific time, culture and
history of people. They are not raw realities but are always
interpreted experiences. Theologies that fail to have recognizable
reference to people’s contexts are futile because they would never
touch their hearts. Newman recognized this when he said: “I say
plainly I do not want to be converted by a smart syllogism; if I am
asked to convert others by it. I say plainly I do not care to overcome
their reason without touching their hearts.”
