In November of 2014, Princeton Theological Seminary honored me with an outstanding academic Retirement Symposium to celebrate my 23 years of tenure there. In this article I respond to various challenging and exciting themes and issues raised by colleagues Niels Henrik Gregersen, Michael Welker, Agustin Fuentes, Celia Deane-Drummond, and David Fergusson. My colleagues raised a surprisingly rich series of challenging questions covering a wide range of issues and topics that have fascinated me throughout my career. Overtly present in all these questions are concerns about the integrity of theology proper, what is required to make theology theological, as well as the much broader and more fluid boundaries that I draw for a philosophical theology that has conceptual problem-solving at the very heart of its own academic integrity. What also comes through in an exciting way are discussions about my most recent work in theological anthropology, as challenged directly by contemporary developments in evolutionary anthropology and paleoanthropology. At the heart of this is my current research and writing on the evolution of the moral sense, the religious sense, and, from a theological point of view, questions about the imago Dei, christology, original sin, evil, and suffering
