Klassisch und streng theologisch-philosophisch argumentierende Texte haben ja gerade ein Comeback. Und zwar nicht nur bei Katholischens. Ich habe gerade diesen Essay-Band von Marilynne Robinson gelesen und fand den sehr toll.

I loathe the Christian nationalist movement.

Thousands of people have streamed onto the National Mall in Washington for a daylong prayer rally. The event Sunday is billed as a “rededication of our country as One Nation under God.” President Donald Trump read a passage of Scripture in a video shown at the rally, the same footage used in a Bible-reading event last month. Most speakers celebrated Christianity’s ties to American history. It's a blending of ideas that critics flagged in advance of the prayer gathering as supporting Christian nationalism. The event was organized by a public-private partnership backed by the White House. Congressional Democrats see it as a Trump-controlled end run around a commission charted by Congress a decade ago to prepare 250th anniversary events.
#Lutheran #clergy in the centuries after the #reformation was a dense family network. Not only did the priests aspire that at least one son followed in their profession, they also networked to ensure their daughters married clergymen. In today's blog entry I've written up some of the resulting #matrilines in my #familyhistory.

The rise of Evangelicals is transforming French Protestantism.
Traditionally discreet and generally liberal on moral issues, French Protestantism is being shaken by the dynamism of the Evangelical movement and its younger, more conservative members, who are more open about their faith in the public sphere.
