  • British Woodland Burial: Its Theological, Ecological and Social Values
    From Earth to Earth: a small but growing number of us are choosing to ‘return to nature’ in A photograph of the woodland burial site at Barton Glebe death Everyone dies, so the choices made about cremation, burial, and funeral rites provide a unique window on human values and what matters to people. Death-style and life-style reflect each other. Since 2000 a registered charity, the Arbory Trust, has been offering woodland burials at a site consecrated by the Church of England near Cambridge, and the number of people buried and registering to be buried there is growing. This constitutes part of a wider trend in British society to opt for ‘natural burials’, reflecting people’s desire for personal choice in the ritual, and a growing engagement with ecological values. The existence of the Centre for Death and Life Studies at Durham University led to a collaboration between its Director, Prof. Douglas Davies and the Arbory Trust, and thus to the appointment of Hannah Rumble as the doctoral candidate who set out to research this phenomenon, funded by the Religion and Society Programme. Between 2007 and 2010 she conducted archival research, participant observation, a survey and interviews around this sensitive subject. She contacted relatives, celebrants and people pre-registered to be buried at the site. Though consecrated by the Church of England (guaranteeing a secure future), the Arbory Trust welcomes people from any religious background. Those opting for natural burial repeatedly talk about the ecological value of “putting something back”, their love of nature, and of not wishing to leave a grave which will be a burden to maintain.

  • Vol. 32, No. 1 November 2016
    Vol. 32, No. 1 November 2016 FEATURE STORY: Christian nationalism—both gaining and losing ground? There is much talk about the growth of “Christian nationalism” even as surveys and journalists report the decline of “white Christian America,” but several papers presented at the late October meeting of the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion in Atlanta suggest that any such phenomenon is far from a monolithic or accelerating force in society. Sociologists Andrew Whitehead and Christopher Scheitle presented a paper showing that while Christian nationalism, which they define as a position linking the importance of being Christian to being American, had shown growth between 1996 and 2004, the subsequent period up to 2014 had seen decline in this ideology. Using data from the General Social Survey in 1996, 2004, and 2014, the researchers found that 30 percent of Americans held this position in 1996, while 48 percent did in 2004, but then the rate dropped back to 33 percent in 2014. They looked at other variables that seek to maintain boundaries for true Americans, such as the importance of speaking English, and did find ReligionWatch Vol. 32, No. 1 November 2016 that this sentiment followed the same episodic pattern. Whitehead and Scheitle argue that the role of patriotism and attachment to America was stronger in 2004, which was closer to 9/11, than in the earlier and later periods. Although they didn’t have data for the last two years, they speculated that these rates may be increasing again. Associated with the reports on the rise of Christian nationalism is the conflict over the role of religion in the American public square.

  • St Marks Centre for Radical
    INVITES YOU TO ITS AUTUMN CONFERENCE Ritual for Radicals: Does Progressive Christianity need Ritual? DOUGLAS DAVIES St Marks Centre for Radical Christianity is delighted to welcome Douglas Davies, Professor in the Study of Religion, University of Durham to St Mark’s Church, Broomhill for its Autumn Conference. SATURDAY 3 NOVEMBER 2012 10.00 am — 4.00 pm (9.15am Coffee and Registration) Non-members £12, CRC/PCN Members £10, Students £5 at St Marks Church, Broomhill Sheffield St Marks CRC is part of the Progressive Christianity Network It would be difficult to over-estimate the importance of ritual within human being. It emerges within the experience of our earliest ancestors as they struggled to make sense of existence, mediate their relation to an unpredictable world, mark important transitions in life and give expression to their deepest longings and aspirations. Unsurprisingly, Christianity, like each and every religious tradition, soon evolved its own rituals which, through the passage of time, became associated with particular beliefs or conveyed authority to particular individuals and structures. In a climate of greater freedom to reflect critically, yet constructively, on the past, it is vital that we rediscover the role of ritual within an on-going exploration of what it means to be true to Jesus as we seek also to be true to a faith that is reasonable and relevant yet pioneering and fearless, informed (but not constrained) by the orthodoxies of human inquiry; faith that is willing to live with the complexities and uncertainties, the opportunities and challenges, characterising the human condition. To help us in this vocation, we are delighted to announce that Professor Davies will lead our Autumn 2012 Conference.

It must attempt to extend the range of some existing consensus and to frame more discriminating moral conceptions for our consideration. Justifying grounds do not lie ready at hand: they need to be discovered and suitably expressed, sometimes by lucky guesses, sometimes by noting the requirements of theory. —John Rawls, A Theory of Justice iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A central theme of the pages that follow is that our moral arguments and identities are inextricably linked to and shaped by the communities in which we find ourselves.

  • New Era Missionary Baptist Convention Handbook 2012
    THE NEW ERA MISSIONARY BAPTIST CONVENTION OF GEORGIA, INC. Equipping and Empowering Churches 1229 Green Valley Road Griffin, Georgia 30224 THE CONVENTION’S HISTORY In 1961, the New Era Missionary Baptist Convention of Georgia, Incorporated started as a convention which reflected the religious and social climate of its time. In the Beginning the mission was to transform the traditional African-American Baptist Convention as well as society. In the midst of the Civil Rights movement, the convention was formed By many of the people who were deeply involved in securing the rights and privileges for African-Americans. The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was one of the most prominent figures of this time to Be an active memBer of this convention. On DecemBer 6, 1961, a group of Baptist pastors and lay leaders met at Tremont Temple Baptist Church, Forsyth Street in Macon, Georgia, where the Reverend E.B. Paschal served as Pastor. They met with the purpose in mind of evaluating the total Christian program of the State Convention and to discuss various ways of implementing their Beliefs in Christian democracy. The theme selected for the occasion was “Militant Builders for Christ”. The group assumed the name “The Crusaders for Christian Democracy in the State of Georgia” and was led By the Reverend Dr. Emory R. Searcy of Atlanta. The Reverend O.H. Stinson of Griffin, Georgia was called to chair the meeting. In his opening remarks, Rev. Stinson set for the purpose of the meeting as follows: “We are here to consider and evaluate the oBjectives of our State Convention, and if need Be, seek to chart an acceptable course of action for Baptists of Georgia”.
