Resumen
Summary: The ecological crisis that our planet is suffering cannot be solved only by technical solutions and new economic strategies; what is needed is a new philosophical system in order to rethink human beings in their relationship with creation. To this end the world’s various religions can offer a fundamental contribution. Just as in the past, religion provided structure to ancient thought, so today a renewed ethical-religious vision could open new horizons for thought and praxis, so that human beings might rediscover their equilibrium within the entire cosmos. The present article intends to show how the different experiences of God proposed by the religious of East and West can guide various theologies to a new understanding of nature and a new image of man, so that our wounded planet might be wisely cared for and healed.
