Three ways to make sense of one God | Ekklesia
Rated • 1 review • christianity, philosophy, spirituality, bible, religion • ekklesia.co.uk
A fabulous article on the Christian Trinity: "The Christian hope in seeking God's realm and will is that those who taste this abundant, divine life will be strengthened to develop and share it as widely as possible. For â€oeWe have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ…We rejoice in the hope of the glory of God… And hope does not disappoint us, because Godâ€s love is poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit.”"

This has been my point all along, ever since we "discovered" the environmental movement 25, 30 years ago. The earth is just fine. If we keep screwing up, rats, cockroaches, hardy seeds, they're going to survive us, along with many, many other species. So when we talk about "environmentalism", it's really mostly about saving homo sapiens from extinction.

18 Random Thoughts About Thoughts and Thinking | Tom...
Rated • 4 reviews • philosophy, spirituality, psychology • tomstine.com
Great little collection of vignettes on thoughts and thinking, for example: "Is there a subconscious? Everyone sure likes to believe that there are thoughts outside of our conscious awareness that "stick around" somehow or another. We call this collection of thoughts our subconscious mind. But is there one? No way to know, really. Because as soon as I become aware of a "subconscious thought," that thought is now conscious and no longer a subconscious thought. It seems we use this idea of a subconscious to refer to those thoughts that seem to repeat themselves. But how can I be sure they repeat? Maybe they spontaneously generate anew each time. No way to know. Thoughts, ideas and beliefs are slippery, are they not?"

The Doorman & Absurdistry's Weblog
Rated • 1 review • philosophy, blogs, consciousness • wordpress.com
A rather fascinating post about - doors. "the term Doorman goes back at least 2100 years to antiquity where a minor Greek Historian by the name of Herodumus wrote the first collection of writings on the theme of doors. He defined a Doorman as the connoisseur of the study of doors whose fascination with the transcendental architecture of doors burn like a fever in his soul. He spoke of the Doorman as one who searches with unrelenting fervor to find the secret or "alternate reality" that can only be revealed by passing through a door. This is the alternate reality that Aldous Huxley wrote about in The Doors Of Perception"

JOUVERT: journal of postcolonial studies
Rated • 1 review • philosophy, spirituality, religion • ncsu.edu
From the page: "A number of attempts have recently been made to trace a connection between religion and epistemology. Clearly, whatever theory of knowledge theologians rely on is crucial to the course they will pursue. A claim to know God or that God knows me cannot be understood at all unless I have some idea of what knowing is, since the hidden presuppositions in any theory of knowledge will inevitably govern the type of belief that I hold. This article presents two outcomes for religion, (1) that of following a traditional Wittgensteinian epistemology, and (2) that of carrying through the implications of the New Critical Realist epistemology. Whereas the first epistemology regards knowledge as distinct from illusion, a matter of grasping the facts, for the second it is a continual struggle, an endless re-aligning of them. 'Knowing God', therefore, could be either a matter of confronting an unchanging reality, that exists remote from the contingencies of human culture, or a struggle to conceptualize and control the changing aspects of culture."
