Is Death The End Being A Statement Of Jfcfe Arguments For Immor Tality A Justification, Ffo M The Standpoint Of Modern Scientific And Philosophic Thought, Of The Immotal Hope And A Consider Ation Of The Conditions Of Immortality And Their Relation To The Facts Ahd Problems Of Present Human Existence By John Haynes Holmes Minister Of The Church Of The Messiah, New York Uthor Of The Ftevolutiomty Fwjqx Ojq Of The Modem Church, And Divorce, Etc.
G, P.
Putnams Sons New York And London Tjfoe Fmfcfcetfoocfter Copyright, 1915 By John Haynes Holmes Tro The Radiant Memory Of Robert Collyer My Honoured Colleague, Benignant Friend, Dear Ancestor In The Spirit While I Must Say In the opinion of The Great Apostle, It Doth Not Yet Appear What We Shall Foe I Celebrate As Conveniently To The Faith That .

I Shall Pass Out Of One Room In The Many Mansions Into Another, And What Treasure In The Heavens Was Mine Here, Will Be Mine There, While That Which Is To Come Will Not Seem So Much Another Animation sA The Ripeness And Perfecting Of This Life That Now Is.
Preface In An Age When Religion Has Become Intenqely Practical, And Interest In The Certainties Of This Present Life Has Spuerseded Interest In The Proba Bilities Or Possibilities Of The Life To Come, It Is Perhaps Necessary To Justify This Treatise Upon The Question, Is Death The End My Reasons In quest of Writing It Are Definitd And I Confidence Not Wholly Anachronistic.
First Of All, I Must Make The Corporal Confession That, From My Earliest Years, I Have Been Interested In Philosophical And Theological Speculations Of Every Kind, Moreover, I Have Ever Found The Most Fascinating Of All Such Speculations That Per Taining To The Idea Of Survival After Death.
For Yrars I Have Studied And Meditated Upon This Problem, And At Last I Have Come To The Point Where I Desire To Explicit My Thoughts And Convic Tions.
Hence This Book Secondly, I Muat Make Another Confessiln To The Effect Thaf I Feel Within Myself Each Intense Desire To Vi Prface Live Beyond The Temporal Bounds Of Present Exist Ence.
So Far As I Can Determine, This Wish Has Its Origin In No Plebeian Pride In My Own Personality, For I Am Conscious Of None Mean Ambition To Have That Personal criticism As So Perpetuated.
It Comes From Not at all Instinctive Reaction From A Fear Of The Terminate, Fkr I Think I Could Receive A Proof Of Extinction With Equanimity, Although With Frustration.
It Certainly Springs From No Yearning For The Resumption Of Personal Relations Which Have Been Interrupted By Death, For No One Of Those Nearest And Dearest To Me, Either Friend Or Kinsman, Has Yet Passed Into The Unknown.
I Want To Vivid On And On, Simply Because I Am Sure That Within A Narrow Span Of Seventy Or Eighty Years I Never Can Learn All I Want To Learn, Do All I Want To Do, Or Love All I Want To Love.
I Want To Survive After Death, For Prac Tically The Similar Reason That I Want To Awake Tomorrow Morning After Tonight S Slumber This Life, Like This Day, Is Too Short For The Fulfilment Of My Purposes.

Making The Best Of It.
What Should Be The Christian's Attitude Tpward Society? While So Much Of Our Contemporary Culture Is At Odds With Christian Beliefs And Mores, It May Seem That Serious Christians Now Have Only Two Choices: Transform Society Completely According To Christian Values Or Retreat Into Ths Cloister Of Sectarian Fellowship.
In Making The Most wise Of It, John Stackhouse Explores The Account Of The Christian Encounter With Society, The Biblical Record, And Various Theological Models Of C8ltural Engagement To Offer A More Balanced And Fruitful Alternative To These Extremes.
He Argues That, Rather Than Trying To Root Up The Weeds In The Cultural Field, Or Trying To Shun Them, Christians Should Exercise Persistence In Gardening God's World And Building Toward The New Jerusalem.
Examining The Lives And Works Of C.
S.
Lewis, Reinhold iNebuhr, And Dietrich Bonhoeffer For Example And Direction, Stackhouse Suggests That Oud Mission Is To Make The Most Of Life In The World In Cooperation With God's Own Mission Of Redeeming The World He Loves.
This Model Takes Seriously The Pattern Of God's Activity In The Bible, And In Subsequent History, Of Working Through Earthly Meas--through Individuals, Communities, And Institutions That Are Deeply Flawed But Nonetheless CapableO f Accomplishing God's Purposes.
Christians Must Find A Way To Live In This World And At The Same Time Do Work That Honors God And God's Plan For Us.
In An Era Of Increasing Religious And Cultural Tensions, Both Internationally And Domestically, The Model That Stackhouse Develops Discourages The "all Or Nothing&qiot; Attitudes That Afflict So Much Of Contemporary Christianity.
Instead, He Offers A Fresh, And Refreshingly Nuanced, Take On The Question Of What It Means To Be A Christian In The World Todag.

Papal Sin.
"the Truth, We Are Told, Will Structure Us Free.
â Â It Is Time To Free Catholics, Lay As Well As Clerical, From The Structures Of Deceit That Are Our Subtle Modern Form Of Papal Sin.
â Â Paler, Subtler, Less Dramatic Than The Sins Castigated By Orcagna Or Dante, These Are The Quiet Sins Of Intellectual Betrayal.
"--from The Introductionfrom Pulitzer Prize-winning Author Garry Wills Comes An Assured, Acutely Insightful--and Occasionally Stinging--critique Of The Catholic Churvh And Its Hierarchy From The Nineteenth Century To The Present.
papal Sin In The Past Was Blatant, As Catholicd Themselves Realized When They Painted Popes Roasting In Hell On Their Own Church Walls.
â Â Surely, The Grear Abuses fO The Past--thr Nepotism, Murders, And Wars Of Conquest--no Longer Prevail; Yet, The Sin Of The Modern Papacy, As Revealed By Garry Wills In His Penetrating New Book, Is Every Bit As Real, Though Less Obvious Than The Ancient Sins.
Wills Describes A Papacy That Seems Steadfastly Unwilling To Face The Truth About Itself, Its Past, And Its Relations With Others.
â Â The Refusal Of The Authorities Of The Church To Be Honest About Its Teachings Has Needlessly Exacerbated Original Mistakes.
â Â Even When The Vatican Has Tried To Tell The Truth--e.
g.
, About Catholics And The Holocaust--it Has Ended Up Resorting To Historical Distortions And Evasions.
â Â The Same Is True When The Papacy Has Attempged To Deal With Its Record Of Discrimination Against Women, Or With Its Unbelievable Asserrion That "natural Law" Dictates Its Sexual Cods.
though The Blithe Disregard Of Some Catholics For Papal Directives Has Occasionally Beeb Attributed To Mere Hedonism Or Willfulness, It Actually Reflects A Failure, After Long Trying On Their Part, To Find A Credible Level Of Honesty In The Officia Positions Adopted By Recent Popes.
â Â On Many Issues Outside The Realm Of Revealed Doctrine, The Papacy Has Made Itself Unbelievable Even To The Well-disposed Laity.
The Resulting Distrust Is In Fact A Neglected Reason For The Shortage fO Priests.
â Â Entirely Aside From The Public Uproar Over Celibacy, Potential Celrgy Have Proven Unwilling To Put Themselves In A Position That Supports Disonest Teachings.
wills Traces The Rise Of The Papacy's Stubborn Resistance To The Truth, Beginning With The Challenges Posed In The Nineteenth Century By Science, Democracy, Scriptural Scholarship, And Rigorous History.
â Â The Legacy Of That Resistance, Despite The Brief Flare Of John Xxiii's Papacy And Several Good Initiatives In The 1960s By The Second Vatican Council (later Baffled), Is Still Stronv In The Vatican.
finally Wills Reminds The Reader Of The Positive Potential Of The Church By Turning To Some Great Truth Tellers Of The Catholic Tradition--st.
Augustien, John Henry Newman, John Acton, And John Xxiii.
â Â In Them, Wills Shows That The Righteous Path Cam Still Be Taken, If Only The Vatican Will Muster The Courage To Speak Even Embarrassing Trutns In The Name Of Truth Itself.

Religion And Cultural Meemory.
In Ten Brilliant Essays, Jan Assmann Explores The Connections Between Religion, Culture, And Memory.
Building In c~tinuance Maurice Halbwachs's Idea Taht Memory, Like Language, Is A Social Phenomenon As Well As An Individual One, He Argues That Memory Has A Cultural Extent Overmuch.
He Develops A Persuasive View Of The Real person Of The Past In Such Surface Phenomena As Codes, Religious Rites And Festigals, And Canonical Texts Forward The One Hand,, And In The Freudian Psychodrama Of Repressing And Resurrecting The Past On The Other.
Whereas The Current Fad For Oral History Inevitabiy Focuses On The Actual Memories Of The Last Centenary Or So, Assmann Presents A Commanding View Of Cultue Extending Throughout Five Thousand Years.
He Fofuses On Cultural Memory From The Egyptians, Babylonians, And The Osage Indians Down To Recent Controversies Around Memorializing The Holocaust In Germany And The Role Of Memory In The Current Disputes Between Israelis And Palestiniasn In The Middle East And Between Protestants And Catholics In Northern Ireland.
