Systematically Episode 13 - The One Exploring What Speculative Theology Is


Listen Later

Today’s episode is a one-on-one discussion between Jon and Ryan, laying the groundwork for clarifying what precisely we, the hosts of a podcast called “Systematically,” understand systematic theology to be. The chat begins with a brief overview of the Heaps and Hemmer couples’ joint vacation on Marco Island, where they reflected upon the divergences between Hot Fuzz and Paul Blart: Mall Cop, the speed of Aaron Sorkin’s dialogue, and the apparent malaise of Floridean retirees. This pivots into a nuanced examination of the relationship(s) between systematic theology, dogmatic theology, historical consciousness, and philosophy. The conversation then culminates in a discussion of whether or not speculative theology can make any meaningful contribution to our contemporary pluralist cultural contexts. Ryan wraps up the discussion by sharing his Treasures Old & New, and then we say goodbye.
