Book Review: Joel Van Amberg. A Real Presence: Religious And Social Dynamics Of The Eucharistic Conflicts In Early Modern Augsburg, 1520–1530., Amy Nelson Burnett

Department of History: Faculty Publications

Perhaps more than anywhere else, the imperial city of Augsburg was riven by disagreements over the proper understanding of the Lord’s Supper.

Pornography, Ethics, And Video Games, Stephanie Patridge

Religion & Philosophy Faculty Scholarship

In a recent and provocative essay, Christopher Bartel attempts to resolve the gamer's dilemma. The dilemma, formulated by Morgan Luck, goes as follows: there is no principled distinction between virtual murder and virtual pedophilia. So, we'll have to give up either our intuition that virtual murder is morally permissible-seemingly leaving us over-moralizing our gameplay-or our intuition that acts of virtual pedophilia are morally troubling-seemingly leaving us under-moralizing our game play.
