Theologian Tillich
Dead; Condemned
Nazi Germany

C H I C A GO - World-famous
!Protestant theologian Dr. Paul
Tillich, who could boast he "had
the honor to be the first non-
Jewish professor dismissed from a
German university" when the
Nazis came to power, died last Fri-
day at age 79.
Dr. Tillich, one of Christianity's
most influential theologians, rose
to prominence in America after
fleeing Germany in 1933. His in-
fluence was so profound as to radi-
cally change Protestant theology.
Dr. Tillich was a member of the
Frankfurt University s en a t e in
1933 when 400 Hitler brownshirts
arrived to beat up the radical stu-
dents. He spoke out.
The philosopher recalled later
he went to see the Nazi minister
of education in Berlin and dis-
cussed with him for a full hour
the Old Testament and the im-
portance to Christianity of the
Jewish tradition. "At the end of
that hour, I knew it was over,"
he said. Dr. Tillich then came to
the U.S., becoming a citizen in
1940. He taught at Union Theo-
logical Seminary and the Univer-
sity of Chicago.
Among his more than three
dozen books on philosophy and ed-
ucational, contemporary art and
political theory, psychology and
literature, a favorite of many is
a little commentary he wrote at
age 72- annotations to the draw-
ings made by a Jewish child in
the years before she was gassed
and burned at Auschwitz.
During the war, Dr. Tillich was
active in aiding refugees from
Nazi tyranny, serving on many
committees and maintaining his
interest in refugee-relief work
through the 1950s.
He wrote, in expressing his view
of religion, "Being religious means
asking passionately the question of
our existence and being willing
to receive answers, even if the
answers hurt. Such an idea of re-
ligion makes religion universally
human, but it certainly differs
from what is • usually called re-
ligion . . . Religion in its inner-
most nature . . . is the state of
being concerned about one's own
being and being universally."
