	Rudolf Bultmann and the Individualised Moment of Revelation
		Bultmann is famous for his comment that modern ‘man’ (a term he intended inclusively) cannot legitimately recconcile possession of the ‘wireless’ and the ‘light-bulb’ with belief in the miracles of New Testament.
		Consequently, Bultmann draws a sharp contrast between the biblical thought-world and that of contemporaneity and consequently attempted a hermeneutic of ‘demythologisation’ of the concepts into contemporary thought-forms (for Bultmann, this was existentialism).
		Bultmann therefore asserts that eschatology in the sense of a universal change in nature and history must be discarded, because it is part of a past mythical world-view.

	Radical Faith - exploring faith in a changed world
		Bultmann was the eldest son of a German Lutheran pastor - and became, with Karl Barth and a few others, one of the most influential theologians of the 20th century.
		Bultmann and Barth were probably the two theologians who in the 20th century contributed most to the prevailing consensus held by both Catholic and Protestant that it is in and through the ecclesia (the church), as it searches and responds to reality, that the truth about the meaning of life is to be discovered.
		Ironically, Bultmann's stand seems to have contributed to a resurgence of interest in the Jesus of history - a quest long put on the back burner by those who were swamped by the Bultmannian and Barthian reliance on the refuge of faith.

	Rudolf Bultmann (1884-1976)
		Bultmann’s infamous ‘demythologisation’ is a way of, firstly, ‘de-objectifying’ the naïve theological conceptions by the biblical writers, and, secondly, asking what it is that they are trying to say mythologically.
		Bultmann identifies numerous New Testament myths – the three-tier universe as the arena for conflict between the forces of God and Satan; the Son of God’s coming from heaven and defeat of evil’s forces; Christ’s returning on the clouds as executor of God’s final judgement; the virgin birth; the bodily resurrection; and Christ’s ascension.
		Nevertheless, it remains to be asked, however, whether Bultmann adequately deals with the question of the Sache’s own enculturation of expression, and whether he does resort in practice to precisely the negation of myth by a discovery of the biblical kernel.

		Rudolf’s education began at the humanistic Gymnasium at Oldenburg; incidentally, he studied concurrently with the philosopher-to-be, Karl Jaspers, who was only a few grades ahead of young Bultmann.
		Bultmann’s answer is that the approach of the natural sciences is inappropriate to hermeneutics because a person’s relation to history, and thus to texts of our history like scripture, is wholly different from her relationship to nature.
		Bultmann’s conviction of philosophy’s importance in theology stood fundamentally at odds with Barth’s own opinion (who rejected any philosophical intrusion into theology), and thus it is no surprise that the 1950 essay portrays Barth only as a theological opponent who must be combated.

	The American Journal of Biblical Theology.
		Rudolf Bultmann (1884 - 1976) was born in Wiefelstede, Germany, in a family that was deeply steeped in religious heritage.
		Bultmann then sees his task as one of "demythologizing" the text by rejecting any scriptural material that is not consistent with "modern" scientific existential understanding, and unlike his liberal contemporaries, he then seeks out those real and underlying truths that are hidden under the myths that remain.
		Bultmann provided a means of rationalizing away scriptural content that requires any application of faith, or that which necessitates an interaction with the text that demands deep understanding of the culture and language of the ancients.

	Boston Collaborative Encyclopedia of Western Theology: Rudolf Bultmann
		Rudolf Bultmann is one of the most influential theologians and biblical scholars of the twentieth century.
		Bultmann argued that instead of assuming a posture of distance and control, the exegete ought to approach a text with the consciousness of the problematic character of his own existence.
		In fact, Bultmann felt that the Christian faith did not exist until the kerygma was formed (i.e., the kerygma proclaiming Jesus Christ, the Crucified and Risen One, to be God’s eschatological act of salvation), an accomplishment Bultmann largely cedes to the theological developments of the apostle Paul (Bultmann 1991, 103).

		Bultmann also acknowledged the fact that modern man has applied science to the world and found ideas of the first century, such as the "triple-tiered" view of the universe, to be false.
		Bultmann is so falsely confident in this instance that he said that the resurrection of Jesus is not to be taken literally, for it can't be proven as a historical fact (and it can't be replicated today).
		Bultmann said that the cross did not serve to atone men of their sins, for that is scientifically impossible (57).

	Rudolf Bultmann. A Critique
		Rudolf Bultmann was not the full father of modern skeptical/liberal biblical exegesis, but we can give him credit for being the one who systematized and popularized it for the early 20th century, and some people out there still think his way of thinking is that cat's meow.
		Bultmann divided Biblical stories into genres--and had he stopped there, all would have been well; but he went on to assume that each story could be examined within the genre and that we could deduce stages in formation in order to ascertain a story's genuineness.
		The theology of Rudolf Bultmann was based upon Bultmann's intellectual and emotional inability to come to terms with the truth and with a Jesus that strongly conflicted with his own infected worldview.

	Rudolf Bultmann and Formgeschichte
		Rudolf Bultmann, an important Protestant Bible exegete and theologian, was born in Germany in 1881 and died in 1976.
		Using this method, Bultmann analyzed small sections of the Gospels to determine their "form." He then grouped the passages according to diverse literary categories, obtaining different portrayals of Jesus, which he said responded to different needs in the early Church.
		Bultmann's theories have strongly influenced 20th-century exegesis and theology and his followers are myriad.

	LT80 - The Incomplete Response of Catholic Theologians to the Demythologizing of Rudolf Bultmann - Part I
		Bultmann would make man and man's "pre-understanding" the measure of all understanding, including the understanding of revelation and the word of God, and this is the minus sign standing in front of the whole structure of Bultmann's theology.
		Bultmann's interpretation of the Resurrection stands in irreducible contradiction to the witness of Paul the Apostle, for whom the fact of the Resurrection is the clear content and object of the Easter faith.
		Bultmann's interpretation of the Reformation principle of the total fall of man is located on the fictitious side of the object of faith and, therefore, does not interfere with his rationalist belief in the soundness of human reason.

	Rudolf Bultmann - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		In 1941, he applied form criticism to the Gospel of John, in which he distinguished the presence of a lost Signs Gospel on which John, alone of the evangelists, depended.

	LT81 - The Incomplete Response of Catholic Theologians to the Demythologizing of Rudolf Bultmann - Part II
		Bultmann is blind to the way in which figures and symbols are used in the Scriptures, and he has no awareness of the way in which allegory is fitted into the real historical sense of the biblical accounts.
		Bultmann, it is true, does not equate myth with fable, he recognizes that myth has a positive meaning, but the very general meaning which he ascribes to it keeps him from exploring all of the power to reveal which contemporary philosophy and anthropology have discovered in myth.
		Bultmann, it is true, is in accord with the "intrinsic logic" of Protestantism, when he detaches faith from the historical and psychological elements in which it is rooted and transmitted.

		Bultmann chopped 15b-17 out and called it original, while 15a and 18-19 were regarded as "editorial additions".
		In addition he chopped 17 off of 15b-16, arguing that 17 does not serve as a proper climax to the story, for it seems to be addressed to "Jews at large" rather than the retailers.
