Building on the discredited work of Erik Peterson, Jürgen Moltman insists that monotheism is a foreign philosophical influence that corrupted Christianity into validating political domination. Christianity should renounce monotheism in favor of trinitarianism. Moltmann’s trinitarian God, however, can never actually exist, but must always be coming from the future, lest it lose its condition of being in presence. Moltmann’s future orientation serves as a heuristic to induce eschatological human community. The cost of accepting Moltmann’s anti‐monotheism undermines Christianity’s moorings in Judaism and the trinitarian relations of an actually existing God, all for the sake of repudiating monotheism’s ambiguous political significance.
