Description

A German Christian theologian born in 1935 reflects on questions of German guilt aroused by Daniel Goldhagen's book "Hitler's Willing Executioners." Unlike Goldhagen, he subscribes to the belief in German collective guilt for the Holocaust."People know enough to know that they did not want to know more." A realisation is slowly emerging of how deeply Christian theology and preaching feel guilt owing to anti-Jewish elements in the New Testament. Only by asking the right questions and by repenting can German Christians come to regard Jews as "neighbours" in the theological sense.
