Gottlob Christian Storr

Gottlob Christian Storr (10 September 1746 – 17 January 1805) was a German Protestant theologian, born in Stuttgart.

Following completion of his theological examination in 1768, he undertook an educational journey with his brother through Germany, Holland, England and France.

In 1775 he became a vicar in Stuttgart, and two years later returned to Tübingen as an associate professor of philosophy and theology.

[2] He was an outspoken advocate of Biblical supranaturalism, and founder of Ältere Tübinger Schule (conservative Tübingen school of theologians).

[3] His conservative orthodox views in theology placed him at odds with proponents of the Enlightenment, rationalism and Kantian philosophy.
