Thanks for this, Tony. A huge loss for Christianity and the world, for sure. God in Creation was my second favorite book on our BWCA trip. (Nothing can top A Walk in the Woods :)
Your interaction with Sallie McFague confounds me, though. It was reading McFague in a freshmen religion class that first connected Christian faith and responsible, sustainable ecology. I hold her in high esteem, as I do Moltmann. Clearly there's a lot I don't understand about the politics behind Ph.D. programs (and I know this isn't at all the point of your post), but I can't help but ask: what was it about Moltmann that was such anathema to Vanderbilt??

I think she was having a bad day, maybe. And I think it was that JM was an old, white, male, German theologian.
