“...the whole configuration of human development needs to be reconceptualized. A lifetime ought not to be thought of in linear manner, an ascending upward gradient, or a kind of bell-shaped curve in which persons develop from one stage of helplessness as an infant through a lifetime to a final stage of helplessness in old age... In...God resides the ultimate coherence from whom each passion for understanding, each new insight, new stage, new vision of the universe, derives its ultimate intelligibility and toward which all such phenomena point.” TheologyHuman DevelopmentPractical Theology Book:The Logic of the Spirit: Human Development in Theological Perspective Source: The Logic of the Spirit: Human Development in Theological Perspective
