Abstract
New Theology is a topic prevailed and greatly focused on by scholars and scientific centers during recent century. Yet, since the beginning there have been some kind of ambiguity in the topic itself: can the topic itself be logically agreed with? If so, to what does the word new refer? It must be explained if all parts of theology have become new or some of them, if the foundation and aims of it can undergo any change to become new or not.
Needless to say, true answer to above questions lies in one's thought on theology itself and as people think about the problem differently, there cannot be found a full agreement in the field. This paper, therefore, has presented current views on the meaning of newness here critically.
I disagree with those who believe in the possibility of a full transformation in theology. Only on few aspect such as problems, principles, methods, approaches terminology and language.
