The Atrocity Paradigm
Author: Claudia Card
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199881790
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
What distinguishes evils from ordinary wrongs? Is hatred a necessarily evil? Are some evils unforgivable? Are there evils we should tolerate? What can make evils hard to recognize? Are evils inevitable? How can we best respond to and live with evils? Claudia Card offers a secular theory of evil that responds to these questions and more. Evils, according to her theory, have two fundamental components. One component is reasonably foreseeable intolerable harm -- harm that makes a life indecent and impossible or that makes a death indecent. The other component is culpable wrongdoing. Atrocities, such as genocides, slavery, war rape, torture, and severe child abuse, are Cards paradigms because in them these key elements are writ large. Atrocities deserve more attention than secular philosophers have so far paid them. They are distinguished from ordinary wrongs not by the psychological states of evildoers but by the seriousness of the harm that is done. Evildoers need not be sadistic:they may simply be negligent or unscrupulous in pursuing their goals. Cards theory represents a compromise between classic utilitarian and stoic alternatives (including Kants theory of radical evil). Utilitarians tend to reduce evils to their harms; Stoics tend to reduce evils to the wickedness of perpetrators: Card accepts neither reduction. She also responds to Nietzsches challenges about the worth of the concept of evil, and she uses her theory to argue that evils are more important than merely unjust inequalities. She applies the theory in explorations of war rape and violence against intimates. She also takes up what Primo Levi called the gray zone, where victims become complicit in perpetrating on others evils that threaten to engulf themselves. While most past accounts of evil have focused on perpetrators, Card begins instead from the position of the victims, but then considers more generally how to respond to -- and live with -- evils, as victims, as perpetrators, and as those who have become both.

The War Within
Author: Given O. Blakely
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1543468101
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
This book deals with the nature of spiritual life and what takes place when a person is born again. It particularly delineates the result of having a new nature and yet retaining a mortal body. The result of regeneration is that two differing natures reside in the body of the person in Christ. One is adapted to this world and is basically sinful. The new nature, or the new man, is destined to be forever with the Lord in heaven and is righteous. There is a fierce conflict between these natures that must be understood. The new nature is to mature while at the same time doing battle with the old nature, or old man, which cannot enter the kingdom of God. A proper understanding of this war within delivers one from the confusion, self-condemnation, and lack of insight that invariably accompany a fundamental ignorance of this matter.

Gospel Fluency
Author: Jeff Vanderstelt
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 143354606X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
flu·en·cy / noun :the ability to speak a language easily and effectively Even if they want to, many Christians find it hard to talk to others about Jesus. Is it possible this difficulty is because we're trying to speak a language we haven't actually spent time practicing? To become fluent in a new language, you must immerse yourself in it until you actually start to think about life through it. Becoming fluent in the gospel happens the same way—after believing it, we have to intentionally rehearse it (to ourselves and to others) and immerse ourselves in its truths. Only then will we start to see how everything in our lives, from the mundane to the magnificent, is transformed by the hope of the gospel.
