In Secular Discourse on Sin in the Anthropocene: What's Wrong with
the World, Ernst M. Conradie utilizes a notion of social
diagnostics to explore not only the surface-level symptoms of
ecological destruction, but also its ultimate causes. Conradie uses
two toolkits to review secular literature on the Anthropocene,
namely the prophetic and pastoral vocabulary of Christian sin-talk
and the theological critique against apartheid in South Africa.
Various layers of the underlying problem are uncovered on this
bases, including unsustainable "habits of the heart," structural
violence, the ideologies of unlimited economic growth and humanism,
quasi-soteriologies such as climate engineering, idolatries such as
self-divinization, and heresy. Conradie offers authentic discourse
on the Anthropocene from the perspective of the global South, and
includes a theological postscript to posit tentative suggestions as
to what God may have in store for humanity in this time. Scholars
of theology, environmental studies, and history will find this book
particularly useful.
