Guest Post: The Ecumenism of the Private Consensus Martyrs by Justin K.H. Tse

Last updated on: February 20, 2014 at 10:06 am By Artur Rosman

Artur Rosman has given us a masterful account of the difference between Catholic and Protestant imaginations in the way that they deal with sex scandals. As I begin this post, I give my obligatory thanks to him for letting me play a dialectical role to his “backward Catholic” analogical orientation. Of course, dialectics produce syntheses, so if you end up thinking that Artur and I are saying the same thing about Protestant and Catholic sex scandals, it means that the... Read more

GOD HATES FLAGS: The Public Nature of Theology

Last updated on: February 19, 2014 at 11:44 am By Artur Rosman

The protests in the Ukraine have taken a somewhat unexpected violent turn recently after the promise of peace, reports Timothy, author of Bloodlands. What do these recent events tell us about the Church and about what God thinks about flags? Tim Kelleher’s recent analysis of these events, “Crucifixion in Kiev,” makes three very important points about their theological significance. He looks at the events with Western eyes: “To Western eyes, these blokes, of long beard and foreign vestiture, might seem eccentric.Who are... Read more

Imaging God Badly

Last updated on: February 18, 2014 at 6:47 am By Artur Rosman

How does the dynamism of analogy reflect itself in the ways we go about imaging God? If you haven’t read the introduction to Przywara’s Analogia Entis, then pick it up again. John Betz, author of After Enlightenment, has littered his exhaustive introduction to Analogia Entis with many nuggets from Przywara’s other writings, sermons, and letters. Here’s a sampling from the introduction of a 1926 Przywara lecture: “Thus all our wandering in Him and to Him is itself a tension between... Read more

The Epochal Break of the Romantic Imagination

Last updated on: April 29, 2016 at 1:08 pm By Artur Rosman

Valentine’s Day is around the corner and it’s difficult to avoid talking about something romantic. This shouldn’t be very difficult because Romanticism is the topic of some highly touted books published within the past year. I’m thinking of Louis Dupre’s The Quest of the Absolute: Birth and Decline of European Romanticism and D.C. Schindler’s The Perfection of Freedom: Schiller, Schelling, and Hegel between the Ancients and the Moderns. Cyril O’Regan’s upcoming book Anatomy of Misremembering: Von Balthasar’s Response to Philosophical Modernity. Volume 1:... Read more

The Healing Waters of Lourdes

Last updated on: February 12, 2014 at 11:56 am By Artur Rosman

Father Steve Grunow recently wrote a reflection on the history behind the the healing waters of Lourdes over at the Word on Fire blog. I always look for these kinds of reminders, because February 11th is my birthday. However, the following words did not entirely square with my own experience at Lourdes: “The waters of Lourdes take us back to a memory that endures in each of us of a paradise lost long ago and that stream that gave life...

Hans Küng's Catholic Church Abuses

Last updated on: February 8, 2014 at 12:52 pm By Artur Rosman

It’s clear that it’s always raining in Tübingen. NEWSFLASH: Hans Küng abuses his teaching authority once again by calling for Catholic Church reforms modeled on current events in the following HuffPo excerpt from Can We Save the Catholic Church? It reads like a Borowitz Report news sendup: “The Arab Spring has shaken a whole series of autocratic regimes. With the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI and the election of Pope Francis, might something like this be possible in the Catholic Church... Read more

Catholic and Evangelical Sex Scandals Are Structurally Different

Last updated on: February 7, 2014 at 12:40 pm By Artur Rosman

Have you heard anything about the abrupt break between Bob Jones University and sex abuse investigators they hired from GRACE (Godly Response to Abuse in the Christian Environment)? Or, have you heard anything about the non-investigation of Bill Gothard—an evangelical home-schooling guru with allegations hanging over his head that would make Woody Allen blush? Probably not. After a single RNS report a week ago about the Bob Jones debacle the story finally “broke” yesterday in a handful major media outlets. On the other hand, Gothard continues to fly... Read more
