  • Enemies of Science: the Handmaiden's Handmaiden in the Early
    Enemies of Science: The Handmaiden’s Handmaiden in the Early Medieval West Michael P. Honchock Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In English Anthony J. Colaianne, Chair Joseph F. Eska Matthew Goodrum April 23, 2007 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Other, Rationality, Magic, Cosmology, History, Ideas Enemies of Science: The Handmaiden’s Handmaiden in the Early Medieval West Michael P. Honchock ABSTRACT The gradual blending of classical science and epistemology with indigenous/traditional practices and modes of understanding (particularly magic and religion) in the early western Middle Ages tends to be misunderstood. The purpose of this study is to address the reason(s) why the early medieval West has been labeled an irrational, unscientific “Dark Age” in order to point out that this conception’s existence has more to do with limited historical perspectives than with reality. The anachronistic superimposition of modern presuppositions and methodological expectations is a very old phenomenon. Ironically, however, it has crept into the history of science and extended to ostensibly objective “scientific” historiography to such a degree that dismissiveness regarding the other ways of knowing that have informed our scientific and epistemological development frequently tends to obscure historical continuity. My goal in this undertaking is to firmly establish how we may understand that the intellectual revolution beginning in twelfth-century Europe was founded on a rich and multifarious tradition of knowledge and understanding; the preceding seven or eight centuries of the early Middle Ages was not one of intellectual “darkness” and should not be discarded as such.

  • 8 Questions for the Fiction of Universalism the Shack by William
    8 Questions for the Fiction of Universalism The Shack by William P. Young The Last Word and the Word After That by Brian McLaren Love Wins by Rob Bell By Dr. James B. De Young www.burningdowntheshackbook.com 2016 1. What’s all the fuss about? This literature is just fiction isn’t it? Yet this fiction is decidedly theological fiction. These writers explicitly affirm the theology of it. It seeks to advocate a particular, newer view of God, the Trinity, the meaning of sin, reconciliation, the judgment, hell and punishment, the church and other institutions (government, marriage, etc.). 2. Do we have to expect Christian fiction to be solidly Christian or can it be untrue at places? Christian fiction must be true to the Bible to prevent leading impressionable readers astray. Remember the authors believe the doctrines they affirm in their fiction. 3. Do not the pluses, the advantages, outweigh the minuses, the negatives? In writing a novel can an author deviate from the truth revealed in Christ? “A little leaven permeate the whole lump” and taints the whole fiction with corruption. One rotten apple spoils the whole barrel—a proverb we all know by personal experience. 4. If people are being brought closer to God, to discover for the first time that God is a God of love, isn’t this the most important thing? It is important to learn that God is a God of love and to develop a closer relationship to him. But what kind of a God is one brought closer to if a whole side of his being, his justice and holiness, is ignored, subverted, and even rejected? Is one truly brought closer to God if God has been redefined? A.W.

  • The First Great Awakening
    1730-1755, both in Protestant Europe and the American colonies Powerful, dynamic preachers Focuses on personal, spiritual conviction and redemption, and a commitment to a new standard of morality. Downplayed ritual, ceremony, doctrine, sacraments, and church hierarchy. Reshaped denominations: Congregational, Presbyterian, Reformed, Baptist, Methodist. Spawned a movement known as “revivalism.” 18th and 19th Century American Protestant movement Charles Finney In short, Christian life begins with the personal decision to accept Jesus We can increase the number of conversions to Christ if we learn how to intentionally manipulate unsuspecting religious consumers. Harness human motivations to drive individuals to commit themselves to Jesus Once they do, the process of discipleship will fix these false motivations. We just have to get them there. This led to the “new measures:” catchier music, more entertaining, practical, and dynamic preaching Emphasis on the blessings received from the Christian life. “The object is to get up an excitement, and bring the people out…I do not mean to say that [these] measures are pious, or right, but only that they are wise, in the sense that they are the…means to the end…The object of our measures is to gain attention, and you must have something new [to do that].” “Religion is the work of man. It is something for man to do. [But] there are so many things to lead their minds off from religion…that it is necessary to raise an excitement among them.” Charles Grandison Finney, Lectures on Revivals of Religion, 1835 “I could not but regard and treat this whole question of imputation as a theological fiction, somewhat related to our legal fiction of John Doe and Richard Roe.” Charles Grandison Finney, Memoirs of Charles Grandison Finney, published post-humously 1876 “But according to the actual history books, the Second Great Awakening was no real awakening at all.

    “To Be Concerned about Being Grown Up”: Preoccupation with the Adult in C.S. Lewis’s Boxen Juvenilia Senior Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For a Degree Bachelor of Arts with A Major in Literature at The University of North Carolina at Asheville Fall 2006 By Jessica Wallace _______________________ Thesis Director Dr. Deborah James _______________________ Thesis Advisor Dr. Merritt Moseley Wallace 1 C.S. Lewis was born to be a writer. He once overheard his father tell his grandfather, “‘He is the most easily amused child I ever saw. Give him pencil and paper and he’ll be quiet for hours’” (C.S. Lewis, “Autobiographical Fragment 2”). As a child, Lewis created imaginary worlds, and his earliest stories grew out of his drawings of Animalland, a country of anthropomorphic animals. At some point, Lewis merged his Animalland with his brother Warren’s land of India to create Boxen, a land inhabited by talking animals and Indians. Five “novels” and one play survive from the Boxen years. Surprisingly, scholars have ignored these earliest Lewis writings. Because juvenilia are traditionally considered non-canonical works “outside the corpus of respectable material for study,” Lewis’s Boxen juvenilia have been relegated to a “marginal literary status” (Alexander, “Defining” 93). However, the Boxen juvenilia deserve scholarly attention because the stories provide a glimpse into the mind of a child author, granting insight into Lewis’s childhood preoccupation with the adult. In one of the few critical pieces on the Boxen juvenilia, Walter Hooper, the self- appointed literary executor of the Lewis estate and editor of many posthumously published Lewis essays, discussed the young Lewis’s deliberate attempts to “sound adult” in his juvenilia.

  • Revelation: Christian Epilogue to the Jewish Scriptures
    Midwestern Journal ofTheology 6.2 (Spring 2008): 55-66 Revelation: Christian Epilogue to the Jewish Scriptures Radu Gheorghita Associate Professor ofBiblical Studies Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary Kansas City, MO 64118 Abstract This article advances the idea that one of John's motives for writing Revelation was to offer a closure for the Hebrew Scriptures, a Christian epilogue developed in light of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, the faithful and true witness. John provides in Revelation an integration of the Jewish Scriptures with the new revelation in Christ-Scriptures with many points left in suspension but brought to a finality through theological reflection on the life and work ofJesus. I can think of no better way to begin a paper on Revelation than letting two quotes, quite at odds with one another, set the stage for the considerations to follow. At one end of the spectrum one finds Herder's accolade: Where a book, through thousands of years, stirs up the hearts and awakens the soul, and leaves neither friend or foe indifferent, and scarcely has a lukewarm friend or enemy, in such a book there must be something substantial, whatever anyone may say. 1 At the other end, stands Luther's: They are supposed to be blessed who keep what is written in this book; and yet no one knows what that is, to say nothing of keeping it. This is just the same as ifwe did not have the book at all. 2 No pair of classical quotations about the book of Revelation-which are found in astonishing abundance-can more suitably capture the ambivalence experienced by the readers as they draw near to this unique 1 Johann Gottfried Herder, quoted in Carl Holladay, A Critical Introduction to the New Testament (Nashville: Abingdon, 2005), 535.
