Book excerpt: "This book, expounding an exciting new thesis for the history of philosophy, is an up-to-date compilation of Dr. Sheldon's philosophical thought. Although incorporating many aspects of his previous books, it sets forth a bold new philosophy of life, based on an entirely new concept - AGAPOLOGY. Loosely defined, Agapology is the union of love and reason. Reason, wedding to the former, sees that love, as taught by Christianity, is the very basis of reality. The author concludes, after a thorough examination and analysis of these terms, that our present civilization will feel the unity of love and reason as it advances in intelligence toward a peace on earth beyond that aforeto attained in any age. Thus, by studying the nature of love in a thoroughly rational way, he shows that love and reason are actually two phases in the same principle. This investigation of love's meaning also enhances our respect for reason in religion." --

Download or read book Naming and Thinking God in Europe Today written by Norbert Hintersteiner and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2007 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a new need and place for God-talk in Europe? The present volume both confirms this and opens up new questions for discussion. It shows how different traditions of naming and thinking God in Europe draw on various theoretical and philosophical foundations that are in competition with one another in many ways. Due to socio-cultural, historical and political divides between Eastern and Western Europe, these theological traditions often suffer from isolation and mutual misunderstanding. Can the inherent tensions and conflicts be understood more adequately? While exploring a variety of approaches in Europe on the topic, several authors also ask: How can God be named and thought in Europe, which finds itself in the midst of complex crosscultural and interreligious processes - particularly as immigration increases and peoples of non-Christian faith traditions name and think God in ways that differ from and sometimes conflict with Europe's dominant religion(s) and secular culture? What function and impact will traditional God-talk have in a globalizing Europe as religions such as Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism move into the foreground? This volume not only reveals the broad spectrum of its topic but also documents the vivid seeking undertaken by a new generation of European theologians and scholars of religion who openly engage the question of how to live and believe in Europe today, facing complex global challenges.

Download or read book Understanding written by John Gagaoudakis and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Always loved to think about everything I could think about. If I had to believe in something, I had to prove it was the wise and correct thing, and also, it had to work out perfectly with everything else just as in math. (Anything we believe in mathwe had to prove it before). I notice that there are a lot of problems in the world because there is not enough understanding. Love, for example, disappears in front of our eyes if there is not enough understanding. I thought that love and understanding are a great pair. They will never get divorced. You guessed it: because there is understanding! My aim is to help people think more and try to understand more and more before we say or do something that can hurt others.

Book excerpt: Poems by Robert Kelly. From "The Heavenly Country" Once I thought it was the place my father brought me and my mother to, between the rivers up north. The near river was full of white stones bleached in the sun, and the banks on the far side were red clay. At night it was almost cold, so we slept with blankets or walked out in sweaters early morning to see deer or whatever else might reveal itself to us. That it is a matter of It willing to reveal to Us I have never doubted.

Download or read book Teilhard de Chardin on Love and Suffering written by Paul Chauchard and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A careful analysis of Teilhard de Chardin's views, as a scientist and as a Christian, on two important problems in the world today: the problem of love and the problem of suffering. Does science objectively encounter love? In a Teilhardian critique of the true meaning of matter, the author answers in the affirmative and demonstrates how science arrives at love in the world -- a love that logically leads to the Christian faith. Is the Christianity of Teilhard a Christianity without the cross? The author shows the entire work of Teilhard de Chardin illuminated by the shadow of the cross. Teilhard's every thought as a scientist living within the mystery of the cross -- is marked by that mystery, which he urges us to look for within the Church in order better to understand it. For Teilhard, the problem of evil is in reality an expression of love and a principle of union between God and mankind.

Download or read book Creativity in American Philosophy written by Charles Hartshorne and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The reader will find that I combine hearty enthusiasm for the philosophical traditions of my country with sharp partial disagreement with nearly all their representatives. My effort throughout my career has been to think about philosophical, that is, essentially a priori or metaphysical, issues, using the history of ideas as a primary resource. “This is the second of two volumes dealing with the history of philosophy, especially of metaphysics. The first, Insights and Oversights of Great Thinkers, discusses some thirty European philosophers, from Democritus to Wittgenstein and Merleau-Ponty. In both volumes I try to learn and teach truth about reality by arguing, in a fashion, with those who in the past have sought such truth.” — Charles Hartshorne In a remarkable tour de force, Charles Hartshorne presents a lively and illuminating study of what major American philosophers have said about creativity. With a special talent for perceiving and elegantly expressing the essence of a position, Dr. Hartshorne details his reactions to friend and foe, demonstrating that philosophy at its best is dialogue. Noting that metaphysics is a major theme in the American philosophical tradition, he states that “nowhere has the topic been more persistently and searchingly investigated than in this country.”

Download or read book Cloud of the Impossible written by Catherine Keller and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experience of the impossible churns up in our epoch whenever a collective dream turns to trauma: politically, sexually, economically, and with a certain ultimacy, ecologically. Out of an ancient theological lineage, the figure of the cloud comes to convey possibility in the face of the impossible. An old mystical nonknowing of God now hosts a current knowledge of uncertainty, of indeterminate and interdependent outcomes, possibly catastrophic. Yet the connectivity and collectivity of social movements, of the fragile, unlikely webs of an alternative notion of existence, keep materializing--a haunting hope, densely entangled, suggesting a more convivial, relational world. Catherine Keller brings process, feminist, and ecopolitical theologies into transdisciplinary conversation with continental philosophy, the quantum entanglements of a "participatory universe," and the writings of Nicholas of Cusa, Walt Whitman, A. N. Whitehead, Gilles Deleuze, and Judith Butler, to develop a "theopoetics of nonseparable difference." Global movements, personal embroilments, religious diversity, the inextricable relations of humans and nonhumans--these phenomena, in their unsettling togetherness, are exceeding our capacity to know and manage. By staging a series of encounters between the nonseparable and the nonknowable, Keller shows what can be born from our cloudiest entanglement.
