Romans 12:19-21 “Do not exact justice for yourselves, beloved, but yield place before anger; for it has been written, “‘The exacting of justice is mine, I will requite,’ says the Lord.’” But rather, ‘If your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him drink;

The Next Messiah Is All Of Us

There is a quiet revolution hidden inside the words of Thích Nhất Hạnh. It does not announce itself with spectacle or force. It does not arrive with thunder or crowns or armies. Instead, it whispers something almost too simple, too human, to believe: “The next Buddha will be the Sangha (the community of practitioners).” And elsewhere, he reminds us that: “Changing the world looks more like caregiving than war.” If we take these words seriously, they dismantle one of...

Jesus and Marx: Where They Both Agree

Last updated on: March 9, 2026 at 6:04 pm By Keith Giles

0 Comments

Few figures in modern history provoke stronger reactions than Jesus of Nazareth and Karl Marx. One is the central figure of Christianity, a first-century Jewish teacher executed by the Roman Empire. The other is a 19th-century philosopher whose writings reshaped political thought and inspired revolutions around the world. At first glance, comparing them might seem absurd. Jesus preached about the Kingdom of God, forgiveness, and love for enemies. Marx analyzed industrial capitalism, class struggle, and the exploitation of labor.... Read more

This Darkness In Me: Where Girard and Jung Intersect

Last updated on: February 26, 2026 at 11:32 pm By Keith Giles

The idea of the scapegoat sits at the crossroads of psychology, religion, and culture. Both Carl Jung and René Girard grappled with this ancient human reflex, but from radically different starting points. Where Jung explored the scapegoat as a psychological mechanism rooted in projection and the Shadow, Girard saw scapegoating as the foundational structure of human culture itself. Where Jung looked inward, Girard looked outward. Yet at key moments, their insights converge in surprising and provocative ways. JUNG’S SHADOWY SCAPEGOAT... Read more
