Dorothee Sölle
Dorothee Steffensky-Sölle (born ''Nipperdey''; 30 September 1929 – 27 April 2003) was a German liberation theologian and writer who coined the term Christofascism. She was born in Cologne and died at a congress in Göppingen.
== Biography==
Sölle studied theology, philosophy and literature at the University of Cologne, earning a doctorate with a thesis on the connections between theology and poetry. She taught briefly in Aachen before returning to Cologne as a university lecturer. She became active in politics, speaking out against the Vietnam War, the arms race of the Cold War and injustices in the developing world. Notably, from 1968 to 1972 she organized Cologne's Politisches Nachtgebet (political night-prayers). Between 1975 and 1987, she spent six months a year at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, where she was a professor of systematic theology. Although she never held a professorship in Germany, she received an honorary professorship from the University of Hamburg in 1994.
She wrote a large number of books, including ''Theology for Skeptics: Reflections on God,'' ''The Silent Cry: Mysticism and Resistance'' (2001) and her autobiography ''Against the Wind: Memoir of a Radical Christian'' (1999). In ''Beyond Mere Obedience: Reflections on a Christian Ethic for the Future'' she coined the term "Christofascist" to describe fundamentalists. Perhaps her best-known work in English was "Suffering," which offers a critique of "Christian masochism" and "theological sadism." Sölle's critique is against the assumption that God is all-powerful and the cause of suffering; humans thus suffer for some greater purpose. Instead, God suffers and is powerless alongside us. Humans are to struggle together against oppression, sexism, anti-Semitism, and other forms of authoritarianism.〔Pinnock Sarah K., editor (2003) ''The theology of Dorothee Soelle'', Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: Trinity Press International, ISBN 1-56338-404-3〕
Sölle was married twice and had four children. First, in 1954 she married the artist Dietrich Sölle, whom she divorced in 1964. In 1969, she married former Benedictine monk Fullbert Steffensky, with whom she organized the Politisches Nachtgebet.
