The decisive ecological crisis that assails us today provokes decisive questions for us, not only regarding nature’s condition as such but also the human being’s ontological position in the realm of beings as a whole in our contemporary epochal condition of modernity. While this (non) condition indeed calls forth urgent and immediate actions and politico-economic measures that must effectively be deployed, these measures in themselves are not sufficient to address the profound questions that the crisis poses for us. Recognizing this, a transformation of the human being’s relation to beings is called forth. Taking up St. Paul’s phenomenology of nature and Schelling’s Paul-inspired eschatological envisioning of nature, this paper tentatively works towards a theologico-political construction where such a transformation can be formulated by effectively putting into question the “kingdom of man”, which constitutes the ontological ground of modernity.
