"God, Gods, and Fairies"

Last updated on: May 31, 2013 at 12:35 pm By David Russell Mosley

Dear Friends and Family, In addition to my post on Tom O’Loughlin, here is an absolutely brilliant and erudite piece by David Bentley Hart from First Things (June/July 2013). Hart outlines why disbelief or belief in gods and fairies (which he defines as things of this world/nature, i.e. created, if they exist) and disbelief in God. Also, make sure you look through Father Aidan’s posts, particularly on the Church Fathers. Yours, David Read more

Celebrating Theology Faculty from the University of Nottingham: Alison Milbank

Last updated on: May 29, 2013 at 11:00 am By David Russell Mosley

Dear Friends and Family, Today I want to highlight Dr Alison Milbank. Alison and I share many affinities, particularly a love for combining (or showing the existing relationship between) literature and theology. Alison studied Theology and English Literature at Cambridge, doing her PhD at Lancaster. Alison’s work tends to focus in one sense on religion and culture and in another literature and theology. Her desire is to show how theology is and can be worked out through cultural poetic (that... Read more
