"Then, Jewish theology as a subject became a reality." A reply to Walter Homolka's "Liberal Democracy as a Safeguard for Academic and Religious Freedom"

A rejoinder to Walter Homolka's response ("Liberal Democracy as a Safeguard for Academic and Religious Freedom," Theology and Science, 2026) to the author's article "Jewish Theology as a Science in the Context of Post-Shoah Germany" (Theology and Science, 2026) on the School of Jewish Theology at the University of Potsdam. The reply clarifies what the original article argues, addresses points concerning the history of Jewish theology, rabbinic ordination and conversion, plagiarism allegations, court rulings, and the governance of the School of Jewish Theology, and argues that the response offers assertion in place of verifiable evidence on the record.
