Abstract
Writing about any theology involves a certain amount of optimism. Exposition concerning the possibilities of solving protracted political conflicts also requires a fair amount of idealism. Therefore, this paper, by its very nature, demands a fair amount of faith from the reader. It is certainly written as theory, but with hope and only sincere intentions. After outlining the problems of Northern Ireland and the various factions responsible for the religo-political stalemate, this paper will attempt to show how a new theology could bring about change in Northern Ireland.
