A Postcolonial Christology Revisited in Hybridity

Many slangs and newly coined words such as “gold spoon” and “dirt spoon” that emphasize bipolar tension are widely spoken. This is because the structure of dyad polarity immersed people into continuous battles, and the class demarcation is abruptly intensified. In this bipartite context, I found postcolonial insights and cultural theories useful to analyze the mentioned social phenomenon of endless dichotomy as a construct. Because the polarity is forged and produced by the interest of the more powerful, the apparent success of an overthrow could not cease the agony. In this article I then study how Christology still convey a redeeming message to humanity under the hidden, conflictive and ambiguous power structure. Soteriological elements of Christ’s life and crucifixion will be reinterpreted uncovering the plot of the binary scheme.
