Why Salma Hayek Adapting The Prophet for Screen Makes Sense

By Brook Wilensky-Lanford

…with him, in his glove compartment, on his nightstand, and when he went to Germany as a soldier. Reportedly it gave him comfort after his mother’s death. He would underline and annotate copies and give them away to friends. Sample annotation: “A singer can sing his songs, but they must have a ear to receive the songs.” We don’t know when John Lennon got his copy, but by the time of the Beatles’ infamous visit to the ashram of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi…

Liberation Theology is Alive and Well

By Mary E. Hunt

…a, part of the Amazon region which occupies a space four times the size of Germany, with Greece tossed in for good measure. More than two thousand indigenous people came for the Forum, some travelling a week on the Amazon. Apparently, CNN does not do mosquito nets or endangered rainforests, preferring the picturesque ski runs of Davos for winter holidays. So, news on this remarkable gathering was scarce. You read it first here. Bodies Don’t Lie Th…

The God of the Holocene Epoch Is Dead: Religion’s Fatal Flaw

By Daniel C. Maguire

…s hopeless and urges plans to migrate into space. Is There Any Hope? Hopeful scientists like Johann Rockstrom say we have the technical genius (shown by dramatic advances in renewable energy and agriculture in countries like Holland, Germany, and Scandinavia) to extend life for a few centuries—if the planet goes fossil-fuel-free in twenty-five years. If not, it’s doomsday. Bottom line: we may be able to slow the decline. But there is no deus ex ma…

Religion Was Not the Reason for the Paris Attacks

By Mark Juergensmeyer

…oons in Charlie Hebdo are analogous to the ethnic cartoons of Jews in Nazi Germany, or the bespeckled buck-toothed drawings of Japanese in American World War II posters. These images demean a whole race or culture, in the case of Muslims. Algerian Muslims in France already feel demeaned, and for many the cartoons were the last straw. But no matter the keenly-felt injury of satire there is nothing, as so many have said this week, that could justify…

The Terrorism & Poverty Myth

By Ira Chernus

…eed cut huge amounts of CO2 emissions without sacrificing anything—in fact Germany and Denmark have shown that switching to renewables and corporate recycling actually generate economic growth and increase employment. The whole Diamond piece is well worth reading. The main point is that per capita consumption of resources in the industrialized world is a full 32 times as high as in the developing world. But what caught my eye was this tangential p…

What Does Heidegger’s Anti-Semitism Mean for Jewish Philosophy?

By Aubrey L. Glazer

…cal theological questions you are grappling with are either from France or Germany rather than America? There are some important American thinkers engaged in this book, although you are correct that the core of the book deals with European thinkers, who wrote in German and French. On the most elemental level, my philosophical training was primarily in what used to be called continental philosophy, and especially in hermeneutics and phenomenology….

Trump’s Pathological Devotion to Border Walls Isn’t Political, It’s Theological

By Alana Massey

…laveowners, to slaves themselves; of how it was invoked in churches across Germany by pastors to rally citizens to the cause of Adolf Hitler; and of how it was bandied about in the 1960s to oppose civil rights. He was also one of the journalists to warn against using Bible verses against Bible verses and he noted that the apostle Paul was executed precisely for disobeying the laws of the Roman government by a deranged and paranoid emperor Nero. Pi…

Earth to Planet Catholic: Francis Papacy is no Picnic

By Mary E. Hunt

…clusive leadership. Within a year, no one would miss the bishops. Pivot to Germany where Cardinal Walter Brandmüller proclaimed that those who promote women’s ordination are heretics. German Archbishop Georg Ganswein assured the faithful that women would never be ordained during his lifetime, or, even “after his death.” Who knew that the gentleman also known as “Gorgeous George” had such amazing ability to foretell the future? No wonder he manages…

Sex Work: In Bed with the Religious Right

By Dagmar Herzog

…my prior book, Sex after Fascism: Memory and Morality in Twentieth-Century Germany (2005), which offered a major revision of our assumptions about the Third Reich’s sexual politics and its aftermath, including close attention to the complicity of the Christian churches under Nazism. In his book American Fascists, Chris Hedges had drawn direct parallels between the religious right in the United States and the Nazis, but I thought that was not the p…

The Religious Lives of Soldiers

By Jonathan Ebel

…campaign. The revival coincided with America’s declaration of war against Germany and Sunday, not one to miss an opportunity, turned up his anti-German rhetoric to extreme levels, even for him. It struck me as I was reading excerpts from Sunday’s sermons and articles in the New York Times that we know a great deal about Sunday’s thoughts and the thoughts of clergymen and editorial boards of denominational periodicals, but that little was written…
