Maiêutica histórica como releitura da revelação: a contribuição de Andrés Torres Queiruga para o diálogo entre a teologia evangélica e ciências naturais

Abstract

This thesis aims to show that there is a need to overcome old hermeneutic patterns, and renew the Bible reading for the construction of theological dialogue with the modern world, which is relevant given the questions in the day-to-day life for people and communities. The biggest challenges for this are those that involve scientific research, especially in the natural sciences, involving the origin of human life and the universe. We realize that to realize these challenges include the need to respect the theological concern for dialogue beyond the strictly confessional. We conclude that this recovery is necessary, because the world of theological reflection is not unique in terms of culture and science, and is affected like everyone else by the changes. Their own scientific discoveries in the fields of evolutionary biology, genetics affecting seriously the theological construction, not only point to this, as can also be enlightening, facilitators of a new knowledge of God's action in creating and building a theology to legitimize the context in question. The purpose of the thesis is that the reading of revelation using the category of "historical maieutic" the theologian Andres Torres Queiruga, can offer procedures for theological reflection that promotes dialogue between theology and the natural sciences, from their own science content with the opportunity to benefit the construction of knowledge in both fields
