Summary Of Paul Tillich's Theologian Paul Tillich
Theologian Paul Tillich alludes in his 1945 paper that all living beings are concerned about something. Tillich uses pure logic to support this claim and puts forth the notion that everyone is ultimately concerned about something. Using Tillich’s approach I find this line of argument to be quite convincing and rather difficult to rebuff. It is therefore reasonable to theorize that all humans have that one thing in their lives that constantly occupy their thoughts and forms the very fiber of their being. Tillich was however careful to make the distinction that this Ultimate Concern does not necessarily need to be a belief in God, but could just as easily be a devotion to some other personal pursuits.
