Racism as a contradiction of the official social teachings of the Church of the Province of Southern Africa (Anglican) and in particular the diocese of Johannesburg from 1948 to 1990Molipa, Thato Paul 11 1900 (has links)
Racism as legislated by the government of South Africa, found its way into every sphere of
South African life, political, social, economic and religious. Racism became another culture.
It was in this culture that the Church of the Province of Southern Afiica (Anglican) and the
diocese of Johannesburg found itself.
To be credible and true to its calling, this church in its social teachings taught against racism
on the grounds that it is anti-Christian and denies the essential truths of the gospel. However
a contradiction in its teachings presented itself. Racism came to be found to be alive in its life
and structures. The church came to not practice what it preached. Its practice did not follow
its theory.
For this church to be the church, racism needs to be purged from its life, practice and
structures. A new way of life in the church has to be created and followed. / M.Th. (Systematic Theology)

"Sexist socialising of children in the Sunday schools of the church of the province of Southern Africa : a theological ethical study"Tuckey, Caroline 11 1900 (has links)
Sexist socialisation in the church starts from childhood. The Sunday school, the Christian
community and parents all play a role in transmitting sexist values to children. Sexism is
present in the interpretation, use and teaching of scripture as well as the hierarchy, roles,
structures, language, worship and symbols of the church. These subconsciously influence
children. People's faith may be shaken when the sexist nature of some of these beliefs is
exposed. Sexist socialisation is detrimental as the growth and witness of the church may be
stunted. Hence there is a need to develop non-sexist Christian education. Insights and tools
from feminist theology help in this programme. The conclusions are tentative as such a
process is evolutionary, but important. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / Th. M. (Theological Ethics)
