The Pastoral Resources Of The Psalms, John L. Bell, Emily R. Brink

Symposium on Worship Archive

For many traditions, the Psalms are primarily one of the sine qua nons of Sunday worship, whether sung metrically like hymns in the Reformed tradition, or slotted between the Hebrew Scriptures and New Testament reading as in Roman Catholic and Episcopal traditions. But to harness their use solely or primarily for liturgical purposes is almost to deny their origin as songs which spoke to God from particular experiences of delight, triumph, loss, depression or a hundred other emotions. Drawing on the breadth of expression in the Psalms, we will identify how in private pastoral encounters as in public worship arenas …

Critical Perspectives On Reconciliation And Structural Oblivion, Diana Ramirez Vargas

Conflict, Memory, and Reconciliation: Bridging past, present, and future

The contemporary culture of memory places testimony at the center of historiographic production. The testimony of individualized experiences of suffering and pain are utilized to construe collective memory and social consciousness, to create new moral regimes and disclose previously unknown “truths” about the past. However, the possibilities of enunciation from this space of political representation are restricted as they are inscribed in the language of Restoration and Reconciliation promulgated by Human Rights discourse. Albeit the epistemological turn which privileges narrative truth, testimonies are being commodified by the global industry of transitional politics as they become the object of political negotiation. …

Livelihood And Living For The Youth In Latin America = 拉丁美洲青年人的人生與生活, Alicia Ojeda Santana

South South Forum 南南論壇

I am part of the despairing middle class in Mexico, a generation of young people who went to private schools, who went to college, who speak English, live on their own and have a job. I am part of a minority, and even that seems exaggerating, only around of 17% of the total population actually gets in to a college in Mexico. And I say despairing because the crisis is fast finishing with this middle class social stratus

There has been awareness about the crisis for some years now, but poverty has always been a part of Mexico’s reality. I …

Faith, Reason And Politics, Brendan Sweetman

Conference on Philosophy and Theology

Contemporary pluralism is best represented as a set of rival worldviews. Secularism and religion represent the dominant worldviews in our society. But moves to exclude religious views because they are based on faith are misguided since political philosophies also, and unavoidably, depend on "faith".

Reformed Epistemology, Clairvoyance, And The Role Of Evidence, Andrew Moon

Conference on Philosophy and Theology

Reformed epidemiologists like Alvin Plantinga and William Alston are well known for their view that one can rationally believe that God exists without believing on the basis of any evidence - scientific, philosophical, or otherwise. I defend reformed epistemology from objections (including one having to do with clairvoyance), and I develop a view about the role that evidence should play in the rationality of theistic belief.

Delineating The Boundaries For Religious Speech In Public Discourse In Kierkegaard And Habermas, Michael Carper

Conference on Philosophy and Theology

How is it that one of the most famous Christian thinkers - Soren Kierkegaard -- and one of the most famous contemporary secular thinkers -- Jurgen Habermas - both agree: the religious has nothing to say in the public realm of social, ethical discourse.
