Everytime I use this resource I get frustrated and end up using language that my mother would say a lady does not know. Unfortunately, the categories used by the LST are the categories that Logos/Verbum has built its theology tools around. Please have some liberal/progressive Protestants, some Peace Church pastors, some Catholics, and some Orthodox to go through the ontology to provide alternative titles to the categories so I have a better chance of finding what I need. Examples:

  • my terminology: environmental stewardship your terminology: dominion over earth
  • my terminology: pluralism/interfaith               your terminology: ??? 
  • my terminology: teaching authority                your terminology: ??? (sola scriptura?)

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
