By Peter Manseau

…tells us…”) but it was generally accepted that the local Tewa people had visited this site for much the same purpose long before the first Spanish missionaries arrived. The church was built here, in other words, because the ground itself was already regarded as holy. Founded by Christians on land sacred to people who had lived there for millennia, El Santuario de Chimayo might be seen as a reply to the long-ago challenge put before Native American…

…Alexander Jenner, is he still alive?” So I looked up his name. There was a site devoted to people who played on this label, Remington Records. It had bios of various people and didn’t mention any death date. I wrote to the person in Holland who put this site together and said, “Do you happen to know how to reach Alexander Jenner, is he still alive?” He gave me a postal address for Jenner in Vienna, so I wrote a four-page letter telling him how muc…

With the Pope at Ground Zero

By Anthea Butler

…prayers silently while looking at the south pool of the memorial. The 9/11 site has become not just a memorial or a museum—it is a pilgrimage. For families, it is a place where people lay flowers alongside their loved ones, or walk amongst a grove of beautiful trees. The roar of the water falling into the two craters left by the towers is a poignant reminder of both that day’s destruction and the endless tears that have flowed since that day. Many…

…erkfontein. The Sterkfontein cave network is part of an archaeological dig site declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999. Since the 1930s many early hominid fossils have been uncovered at Sterkfontein, including several complete or nearly complete skeletons. The interesting thing about these fossils, however, is that they are not the remains of our own hominid species, homo sapiens. Rather, the fossils uncovered at Sterkfontein are from ot…

By Marion Grau

…oying our common livelihood. A Site of Pilgrimage Already While a poster onsite says “no pilgrims,” it refers only to the Puritan settlers of history. In fact, the Oceti Sakowin camp receives many pilgrims each day. They come from indigenous nations around the world, and there are many instances of sharing of food and resources. When I was there for the second time, for a few days this week, donations of food were rolling in heavily, firewood was…

Can Art Save Us From Fundamentalism?

By Philip S. Francis

…so many of the post-evangelicals in this book come to refer to the arts as sites of “transcendence” and a “stand-in for faith” is in keeping with the times. This book gives us a chance to see how that untidy “substitution” of art for religion takes place within the course of one lifetime. The misconception that evangelicalism is monolithic, and that all evangelicals are against good (modern) art. This relates to a broader, common, lazy assumption…

By Max Mueller

…ace is primarily a construction of culture, then the original construction site was on the page, in particular, as I mentioned before, on the pages of our religious writings. And I’m not just talking about sacred scriptures. I’m talking about all the writings that America’s religious people produce in relationship (intertextually) with their religious scriptures. From public writings like sermons and legal codes, to private writings like journals…

Herman Cain: The Tea Party-Religious Right Candidate?

By Sarah Posner

…our rights and ability to grow as a nation from our reverence to God.” At the tvTownhall website, the “about” link brings you to an extended biography (and beaming photograph) of Cain. There’s not a whole lot of action at the site apart from posting videos (but that hasn’t been updated since before the election).
