Urban posttraditional religiosity
The thesis is based on the conception of the postoptimistic society (the concept that comes from the Czech scholar Tomáš Halík) which is enrooted in two presuppositions. The first one is that man can no longer rely on modem science and technology - processes which have started to determine the sense and purpose of life from the moment of their appearance. The secular optimism based on this presupposition is now discredited by the ominous (for ex. ecological) consequences of current technocratical civilisation
The creative Word of God in the process of the Creation and in the prologue of the Gospel according to St. John
Bachelor thesis "The Creative Word of God During the Creation and in the Prologue of the Gospel According to John," examines how the creative aspect of God's word / Word manifests itself in two selected biblical pericopes, Gn 1.1-2.4a and John 1,1-18. It deals with the passages in the Holy Scripture, which deal with the creation, the Word and the Word of God. It uses a simple application of historical-critical analysis, which helps to understand the content based on the study of texts editing. The main space is dedicated to the literary analysis that with help of more detailed analysis helps to explore other dimensions of stratification of the explored text. It uses the diachronic and synchronic methods. The aim of our analysis is not to build a hierarchy of importance of arguments. The author rather wants to show different possible approaches to the text. The two pericopes are compared with the intent to point out their interrelationship and the interdependence of the Old and New Testaments. Keywords Holy Scripture, word of God, to create, Jesus Christ, light, Old Testament, New Testamen
