Generally, in relation to Theology, people think at once about church or religion, and more often than not you hear commentaries that, as the obvious result of ignorance, surround this word or its meaning with certain remote and dark halo, as if it was detached from human life, and an exclusive redoubt of a group of beings –“theologians”– whose activities appear before men as something almost incomprehensible.
Theology, as a science that is mainly rational, tries to know God.
The man has two chances to achieve this attempt.
His first chance consists in thinking of God and knowing Him exclusive by reason.
The human thought adopts many forms and aspects, even in the transcendental field. But all they contain similar forms and rules; for instance, if theology is a necessary and really existing science.
As Theology is an essentially rational activity, and also a science par excellence, it must have bases as starting points and supports, and characteristic methods in agreement with its objectives.
The fundamental Theology postulates based on concepts of the Revelation, on which it builds its magnificent rational structure, are as follows:
Theology is the Only Truth.
Theology is a Divine Knowledge taught directly by God.
To know certain thing, object or discipline, always you start by knowing its qualities or properties. So, see which those properties of Theology are.
These properties are essentially of two aspects: absolute, exclusive, and fit to theology itself; and relative, complementing it and especially fit to human sciences in general.
As long as the Aryan man would emerge, Humanity was losing “clare visa” knowledge of God, which was the heritage of the Atlantean race.
Thanks to typical characteristics of their race, Atlantean men had direct vision of God and, therefore, the concept about Absolute Unity of God.
A Dogma is an indisputable Divine Truth that usually should be accepted by faith.
Dogma may be a formal, explicit truth, and also a virtual implicit truth.
The said offered truth, has and expresses certain meaning, and a mission of Theology is precisely to discriminate about this truth, and to make clear, fix and enlarge this meaning so that the light of the Revealed Truth shines more and more radiantly and illuminates more and more the field of the human rational knowledge.
The idea about the Absolute One, the idea about God, is the substratum of whole human mind.
But throughout the ages, and even simultaneously, Humanity considered the Absolute One from diverse points of view.
Of those systems generally following the idea of a theology of the existence, we should mainly emphasize the Vedanta in the East, while also it has reappeared in the West, being specially focused at present on the so-called J.
