God in America: The PBS Special and a Conversation With Stephen Prothero
"God is dead," said Nietzsche. Well, maybe somewhere, but not here, as the
PBS special, God in America makes abundantly clear.
I recently interviewed the chief editorial consultant to this PBS special,
airing this week, Dr. Stephen Prothero. As the distinguished professor of
religion at Boston University, his research and books have been wid... 阅读全帖 |

My Take: Six things I don't want to hear after the Sandy Hook massacre
By Stephen Prothero, Special to CNN
(CNN) – There are a lot of things I am sick of hearing after massacres such
as the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. Here
are six of them:
1. “It was God’s will.”
There may or may not be a God, but if there is, I sure hope he (or she or it
) does not go around raising up killers, plying them with semi... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 40861 | 4 In his 2007 book, Religious Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know-
And Doesn't, Boston University professor Stephen Prothero claimed, "
Americans are both deeply religious and profoundly ignorant about religion."
While he supported his argument with solitary findings from public opinion
polls, he pointed out that at the time of writing his book, there was not a
comprehensive, national survey evaluating religious knowledge among American
adults.
That changed this year, when the Pew Resea... 阅读全帖 |

八个宗教是：Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Confucianism, Taoism,
Hinduism, Yoruba.
一些观点：宗教有不同，他们的出发点不同，比如，
–Islam: the problem is pride / the solution is submission
–Christianity: the problem is sin / the solution is salvation
–Confucianism: the problem is chaos / the solution is social order
–Buddhism: the problem is suffering / the solution is awakening

Amburgey-Peters is still working a "nonstop, crazy schedule on 6,000

spends leading the chemistry department, advising students, and trying to
squeeze in time for research will ultimately qualify her for promotion to
full professor.

发帖数: 25615 | 21 這就是信徒偏頗的讀法跟歷史學家講求公正的不同，我知道的
每個研究新約的宗教歷史學家(Erhman, Stanford 的 Thomas Sheehan,
Yale 的 Dale Martin, Boston U. 的 Stephen Prothero 等等)
都認為每個福音分開來看會得到完全不同面貌的耶穌， 從馬可裡
的膽小恐懼， 到約翰裡的從容就死，甚至指揮若定，根本就是無法融合的。
早期基督教各派有各派主張， 寫的福音各有不同目的， 這是學界的
共識了， 你這也不知道然後批評人家小人， 你太陰暗了。 |

发帖数: 25615 | 22 哪裡錯了？
你自己讀四福音，你能拼湊出耶穌死前的情況嗎？ 按你說的
是 highly distraught, 你能在約翰福音裡讀到這種情緒嗎？
學界沒什麼信不信的，就是忠實於證據而已。
Sheehan 是 practicing catholic, Prothero 是 practicing
protestant (忘了哪一派）, Dale 是 Lutheran, Ehrman 是
agnostic 但是是基本教義 Moody 出身的， 你信口開河以小人之心
來攻擊別人，至少先搞清楚背景。 |
