Book excerpt: A synoptic investigation of the underlying philosophies of twelve religious thinkers from Newman to Ratzinger.

Download or read book Teilhard de Chardin written by David Grumett and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) has been regarded for too long as an isoteric thinker who evacuates theology by subjecting it to scientific theory. There is an urgent need to reclaim him as a French catholic theologian with intellectual roots in the early twentieth century. Teilhard's imaginative and inspiring work is grounded in the constructive use of biblical and patristic motifs and in his own life experiences of war, exile and scientific endeavour. From these, he develops a distinctive philosophical theology which combines elements frequently assigned to the separate domains of philosophy of religion, systematic theology and mysticism. Teilhard provides a detailed theology of human embodiment and natural substance, whilst his theories of human action, passion, vision and virtue offer suggestive resources to pastoral theology. His evolutionary cosmology and social democratic politics are discussed in their historical context, and the significance of his work for the ongoing dialogue between science and religion is assessed."--BOOK JACKET.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Fermat?s Last Theorem, ?an extraordinary story?( Philadelphia Inquirer) of discovery, evolution, science, and faith. In 1929, French Jesuit priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was a part of a group of scientists that uncovered a skull that became known as Peking Man, a key evolutionary link that left Teilhard torn between science and his ancient faith, and would leave him ostracized by his beloved Catholic Church. His struggle is at the heart of The Jesuit and the Skull, which takes readers across continents and cultures in a fascinating exploration of one of the twentieth century?s most important discoveries, and one of the world?s most provocative pieces of evidence in the roiling debate between creationism and evolution.

Download or read book The problem and reality of God written by Joseph Dias, S.J. and published by BRONATO.com. This book was released on 2019-06-02 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 31st General Congregation of the Society of Jesus which took place between May, 1965 and November, 1966, in its decree on 'The Task of the Society regarding Atheism' says the following: The glory of God, as the goal of all creation and man's own good required that he acknowledge, reverence, and serve God. Hence, the danger of atheism which faces so many men today should greatly stimulate the companions of Jesus to offer a purer witness of religious life and a more zealous devotion to apostolic work. The denial of God is no longer, as in former centuries, an isolated phenomenon; it has become widespread, affecting entire social groups and nations. In some countries, atheism is systematically spread by public authority, thereby violating the rights of man to the free investigation of truth and the practice of religion. In many more regions, the denial of God or indifference to religion has directly or indirectly infected cultural and social life. The Supreme Pontiff, Paul VI, on the occasion of the gathering of the Fathers for the 31st General Congregation, committed to the Society, in view of its special vow of obedience, the task of resisting atheism “with forces united”. Each Jesuit, therefore, earnestly though humbly, should take part in this task by prayer and action, and each one should be grateful that he can thus better serve “his Lord alone and the Church, His spouse, under the guidance of the Roman Pontiff, the Vicar of Christ on earth” Keeping in mind the mandate of Pope Paul VI and its whole-hearted acceptance by the 31st General Congregation, the highest legislative body in the Society of Jesus, this little study on the 'Problem and the Reality of God' was written in 1974, towards the end of my studies in Theology. It is my humble, yet earnest, hope that, through quiet, if possible, prayerful reflection on the contents of these pages, at least a handful of 'seekers of the truth' will be helped to pierce through the dark clouds of unbelief gathering around us – foreboding destruction and death – to catch a glimpse of that Mysterious Loving Presence ‘in whom we live and move and have our being' – that Ultimate, Intensely Personal Truth, who alone can give direction to our confused minds, meaning and purpose to our tireless strivings, joy to our troubled hearts, and peace to our restless spirits. Fr. Joseph M. Dias, S.J., St. Stanislaus' Junior College, Bandra, Bombay-400 050. 14th September, 1978.
Download or read book Teilhard s Proposition for Peace written by Jean Maalouf and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teilhard de Chardin, called “the greatest prophet of this age”, intended to write a book called “The Book of Peace,” though he failed to do so. Instead, he went on sowing the seeds of peace throughout his writings. This book distills and presents the essence of the case Teilhard made for the cause of peace. There is no doubt that Teilhard’s readers have noticed how difficult his thought can be, and how puzzling it appears at times. This volume navigates the complexity of those labyrinthine roads, inviting the reader to confidently “see” the basic unity which underlies all that is. When we recognize that we live in the Divine Milieu, where we witness the transforming presence of the divine in human consciousness, we will existentially realize the truth of the principle by which Teilhard wanted us to live.
