In their letters from 1956 to 1960, Christin and Heinrich write about their mutual trust, their friendship and love, and their shared interests in music, literature, and politics. At the heart of their correspondence, however, is Heinrichs existential engagement with the critical theology prevalent at the university at that time, which centered on the question: How does theological research as a science relate to faith in the biblical message? And ultimately, how can faith be grounded in accordance with reason? In their letters, Heinrich and Christin discuss these questions at length, but also the political situation in Germany, then divided into East and West, and the heated debates surrounding nuclear armament in the Federal Republic.

Are you "in Gods hands" in court and on the high seas? No: In the hands of the judges! Called "judicial independence". And this is infinite. It can even lead to miscarriages of justice. Subsequent apologies? Not a chance! In other words: the judiciary operates in a legal vacuum. Countless examples document this. The German constitutional state functions in part as it did over 100 years ago. Thats how old the abuses are. And the organization of the courts. That is why we should not rely on the much-vaunted principle of the rule of law. The examples cited above show how judicial errors can destroy peoples lives and how helpless we are as victims. Nevertheless: what you can do if you (actually) cant do anything: Read for yourself!
