Abstract

Throughout this course we have studied the relationship between one's embedded and deliberative theology. We understand this relationship to be cyclical in nature; when one's deliberative, or second order theology, is reflected upon it can have the effect of altering one's embedded or first order theology. The dynamic between these two concepts is simple enough to understand. Though, what lacks simplicity in this arrangement is the origins of the relationship altogether. In order for one to reflect upon their own embedded theology, there must actually be an embedded theology in the first place. The roots of this first order theology can and should be called into question. If in any instance one's embedded theology is based solely on familial or social pressures, then whenever second order theology inspires sincere reflection upon it the embedded theology will morph to such a degree that knowingly, or unknowingly, a conversion will occur.
