TEOLOGI POSMODERN: MENIMBANG KONSEP NATURALISME-TEISTIK
Abstract: This article will
briefly discuss the problems of postmodern theology in the context of the
relationship between God and nature. In this case, the author brings the
conception of theistic naturalism in the view of classical theology of Islam.
Theological conception of postmodernism (theistic naturalism) can be useful
contributions to the refreshment of Islamic theology, particularly in the case
af‘âl al-‘ibâd and its derivation. The concept of direct influence and indirect
influence may help explain the intervention of God toward human beings without
denying the law of causality, as the law that becomes standard of modern
science. Nevertheless there are some things that need to be considered in this
concept: Firstly, God is only the spirit of the universe, God has entrusted His
power to the nature, and all the events occurred due to the co-creativity of
God and nature. Secondly, God has no a direct influence on the external
dimension, rather He is merely a Spirit of things who has influence on inner
dimension.
