The Catholic Church and the Chicago Parliaments of Religions
Standing with Unfamiliar Company on Uncommon Ground: The Catholic Church and the Chicago Parliaments of Religions by Carlos Hugo Parra A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Carlos Hugo Parra 2012 Standing with Unfamiliar Company on Uncommon Ground: The Catholic Church and the Chicago Parliaments of Religions Carlos Hugo Parra Doctor of Philosophy Theory and Policy Studies in Education University of Toronto 2012 Abstract This study explores the struggle of the Catholic Church to be true to itself and its mission in the midst of other religions, in the context of the non-Catholic American culture, and in relation to the modern world and its discontents. As milestones of the global interfaith movement, American religious freedom and pluralism, and the relation of religion to modernity, the Chicago Parliaments of Religions offer a unique window through which to view this Catholic struggle at work in the religious public square created by the Parliaments and the evolution of that struggle over the course of the century framed by the two Chicago events. In relation to other religions, the Catholic Church stretched itself from an exclusivist position of being the only true and good religion to an inclusivist position of recognizing that truth and good can be present in other religions. Uniquely, Catholic involvement in the centennial Parliament made the Church stretch itself even further, beyond the exclusivist-inclusivist spectrum into a pluralist framework in which the Church acted humbly as one religion among many. -

What Makes Architecture “Sacred”?
Uwe Michael Lang What Makes Architecture “Sacred”? Discussions of sacred architecture often revolve around the concept of beauty and its theological dimension. However, in the context of modernity, the question of beauty has been reduced to a subjective judgment, on which one can reason only to a limited extent. For those who do not share the presuppositions of the clas- sical philosophical tradition, the concept of beauty is elusive.1 When it comes to church architecture, it will not carry us very far. We may not think that Renzo Piano’s church of St. Pius of Pietrelcina in San Giovanni Rotondo works as a church (figure1 ), but how do we re- spond to someone who finds its architectural forms, or the space it creates for the assembly, “beautiful”? For these reasons I propose another concept that I believe will provide us with clearer categories for architecture in the service of the Church’s mission: the concept of the “sacred.” A reflection on the sacred also seems timely, because we customarily speak of “sacred” architecture, art, or music, without giving an account of what this attribute means. And yet for more than half a century theologians in the Catholic tradition have contested the Christian concept of the sa- cred. Ideas have consequences, and it seems evident to me that these theological positions are manifest in a style of buildings dedicated for logos 17:4 fall 2014 what makes architecture “sacred”? 45 worship that fail to express the sacred and hence are not adequate for the celebration of the liturgy. As a starting point for my argument, I should like to draw on the reflections of two well-known architects who designed important church buildings in the recent past. -
Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord
The Holy See SOLEMNITY OF THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD BENEDICT XVI ANGELUS Saint Peter's Square Friday, 6 January 2012 (Video) Dear Brothers and Sisters, Today, the Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord, I have ordained two new bishops in St Peter’s Basilica, so please forgive the delay. This Feast of the Epiphany is a very ancient Feast whose origins date back to the Christian East and which highlights the mystery of the manifestation of Jesus Christ to all peoples, represented by the Magi who came to worship the King of the Jews just born in Bethlehem, as St Matthew’s Gospel recounts (cf. 2:1-12). This “new light” that was lit on Christmas night (cf. Preface of Christmas I) is beginning to shine on the world today, as the image of the star suggests, a heavenly portent that attracted the attention of the Magi and guided them on their journey to Judea. The entire season of Christmas and Epiphany is marked by the theme of light. In the northern hemisphere this is also linked to the fact that after the winter solstice the days begin to lengthen in comparison with the nights. However, Christ’s word applies for all peoples, over and above their geographical location: “I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (Jn 8:12). Jesus is the sun that appeared on humanity’s horizon to illumine the personal existence of every one of us and to guide us all together toward the destination of our pilgrimage, toward the land of freedom and peace in which we shall live for ever in full communion with God and with each other. -
