Abstract

The article "Priests of Creation: John Zizioulas on Discerning an Ecological Ethos" explores the intersection of theology and ecology through the work of John Zizioulas. Zizioulas argues for an Eastern perspective in theology to address the ecological crisis, critiquing Western anthropocentrism and proposing a more holistic approach to creation. He emphasizes the ontological value of creation, viewing humans as priests who mediate between the divine and creation. While Zizioulas presents compelling arguments, the article suggests that the West may have the resources to incorporate his insights into a broader theological framework.
