Robertson Lafayette Whiteside: Systematic Theologian For The Churches Of Christ, Robert Peter Valentine Jr. Jan 2001

Robertson Lafayette Whiteside: Systematic Theologian For The Churches Of Christ, Robert Peter Valentine Jr.

Stone-Campbell Books

This paper explores the life and thought of Robertson L. Whiteside. Whiteside has been largely overlooked in the historiography of the twentieth century Churches of Christ. This paper seeks to remedy that neglect by providing an in depth overview of the life of Whiteside and an exploration of key themes in his theology. In the course of telling his story an attempt is made to show that Whiteside was far more than a man in the shadows. Rather, R. L. Whiteside was, in his own right, a major shaper of theology among American Churches of Christ. Following the survey of …

Ethics As Grammar: Changing The Postmodern Subject, Brad Kallenberg Jan 2001

Ethics As Grammar: Changing The Postmodern Subject, Brad Kallenberg

Theology and Religious Studies Faculty Publications

Wittgenstein, one of the most influential, and yet widely misunderstood, philosophers of our age, confronted his readers with aporias—linguistic puzzles—as a means of countering modern philosophical confusions over the nature of language without replicating the same confusions in his own writings. In Ethics as Grammar, Brad Kallenberg uses the writings of theological ethicist Stanley Hauerwas as a foil for demonstrating how Wittgenstein’s method can become concrete within the Christian tradition. Kallenberg shows that the aesthetic, political, and grammatical strands epitomizing Hauerwas’s thought are the result of his learning to do Christian ethics by thinking through Wittgenstein.

Kallenberg argues that …

"This Great Modern Abomination": Orthodoxy And Heresy In American Religion, Terryl Givens Jan 2001

"This Great Modern Abomination": Orthodoxy And Heresy In American Religion, Terryl Givens

English Faculty Publications

In chapter 4, Terryl Givens provides a new view not only of the Christianity of Mormons but also more specifically of the religious motivations and methods for persecuting LDS people in nineteenth-century America. Givens's chapter is especially important as an examination of one of the worst examples of systematic religious intolerance in American history. According to Givens, for Americans' self-conception as a religiously tolerant nation to remain intact, a hegemonic rhetoric needed to emerge in the public sphere that denied the religious nature of Mormonism and instead described it as a political threat or social evil. Under the cover of …

The English Exile Congregation In Emden: The Marian Exile Presses And English Protestant Culture, Michael Stephen Springer May 2000

The English Exile Congregation In Emden: The Marian Exile Presses And English Protestant Culture, Michael Stephen Springer

Dissertations and Theses

The continental Protestant movement exerted a greater influence on the developing English Protestant culture during the reigns of Edward VI and Mary I, than at any other time during the sixteenth century. Thus, examining the connections between the English and continental reform movements is imperative to understanding the nature of the Reformation in England. The Marian exile movement provides a good case study for exploring the relationships between English and continental reformers. The English exiles, Protestants who sought refuge on the continent during Mary's reign, continued to develop English Protestant culture from their locations abroad. The works produced by the …
