摘要
The Corona pandemic once again reveals the crisis of faith in God. Neither the classical answers of a theology of creation nor those of a theology of revelation (Christology) satisfy, as the pandemic reveals the profound ambivalence of both nature and history, that other side of nature. This essay therefore proposes an alternative path: Against the background of a theology of the art of living, it strives for a phenomenologically accurate description of the existential situation of the human being as a finite being and asks how, from faith in God, the experience of one's own finitude is to be dealt with.
