Summary/Abstract: John B. Cobb was viewed as one of the most prominent representatives of process philosophy and theology. With his wide interest and knowledge, his readiness to participate in transdisciplinary dialogue and primarily with his effort to make Christian theology open to the new findings of the sciences he influenced not only theology and philosophy, but also ecology, economy, biology, and social ethics. Even with this broad openness he saw in Jesus a unique embodiment of God and therefore the decisive authority.
