猴子审判

按:20世纪的第一次广播审判揭示了美国基督徒之间的巨大分歧。后来的许多运动都离不开这个事件以及布莱恩对公众的影响。 ​基要主义的地下化,可以与我们1949-80年代期间中国的家庭教会地下化对读。同样,基要主义嵌入美南以及川普主义的兴起,似乎将再一次引发“猴子审判”,这一次他们因为与右翼政治的结盟,看起来强大得多,但其弱点昭然若揭。与之对读的,大概是中国新兴城市家庭教会在改革宗这样“先进”、曾经改变整个社会形态的神学基础上嵌入了无条件接受的基要主义——年轻地球创造论,圣经辅导,七大山头,主权神学,箭袋神学,文化战争……以及有意识的意识形态撕裂。不同之处在于,我们甚至缺乏布莱恩这样的历史连续性,也没有一个可以结盟甚至可资利用的右翼。 ...

基要主义与社会福音

翻译:Eddy 美国的基要主义和社会福音是两个截然不同的宗教运动。两者都始于 20 世纪初。两者都源于基督教试图处理现代性问题所面临的困境。然而,它们有着截然不同的目标。作为一位政治家和宗教领袖,威廉·詹宁斯·布莱恩在这两个运动中都发挥了重要作用。 ...

合订本不能看

我每年到了年底都会重新将一年之中受不了而屏蔽的朋友圈重新开放一遍,作为来年新的开始。屏蔽最多的是只发送广告,但所推销的并非我想要之物的朋友。这是没有任何恶意的。第二种可能暂时屏蔽的,是没有自己观点,只是在刷屏热门文章的。第三种是每天定时钞经文,甚至定时钞某名牧的。 ...

Objectized, Animalized, and Idolized

按(不住):要屠杀或奴役一个民族或群体,需要首先“非人化”这个民族或群体,文明世界的良心才过得去。不用阅读其他书籍,就读读《翦商》大概就够了。要在战争中屠杀平民,最好的方法是为对方贴上“野兽”的标签,或者用“去法西斯化”、“向恐怖分子宣战”作为借口。一场战争,允许“正义”的一方屠杀更多对方的平民(当然,先贴上“文明洼地”的标签,完成非人化),不过是大家热烈欢迎《奧本海默》,二刷三刷之后证明自己还在新冠“脑雾”困扰之下的失忆而已。或者,这个电影本身过于复杂,无法形成固化的自媒体道德范式。 ...

LGL工作坊后采

关于微信公众号留言的补充说明。2022年11月,有一个《互联网跟帖评论服务管理规定》出台,今年对于评论的管理明显加强了许许多多。昨天我的那篇“牵连与处境”,一度达到6条留言里3条违规被删除的程度。这些问题需要读者们注意,自己小心。留言并不是可以随意发泄意见的地方了,而且法律责任是你们自己要负担。 在此基础上,也请参考“给我留言的推荐规则”,“请不要用语音留言和我聊天”,“FAQ”,“不说谎会死”,“写作是一种冒犯”,“代码管理说明”等说明文。(微信读者应当点击“阅读原文”,以访问这些文字) 我用了很多心思,将我能发出的文字尽可能完整的发出来,没有字母代码(除了“以JD为中心的JD”一句例外),没有乱七八糟的插入符号(没有为了逃避审查而留下“上%帝&爱~你&#”)。很多看起来随意的写作,也不是那么随意就能过审的,希望大家的留言也一样安好,不然就没的玩了。不提也罢,下面是关于LGL的后采了。 ...

事工哲学(162)| 陶恕的家庭生活

这几天在更新自己的物理学知识。关于多重宇宙、暗物质、热力学第二定理甚至一种替换大爆炸理论的非牛顿重力理论。(链接是我还至少会再看一遍的油管视频)。有很多想法,比如在爱因斯坦的广义相对论之下,时间是一种空间的曲率表达,而空间的曲率与空间的物质密度有关,举个简单的例子,如果一个空间什么也没有,你测量的体积是V,那么在其中放入一个太阳系之后,这个空间的体积会比V略大一点,因为质量改变空间的曲率,但同时也带来时间的改变。 而Stephen Wolfran对于概念和规则空间的概念解释,对于人类观察者视角(局限)的分析,以及这样理解的相对论与量子力学,则深深地打动了我。我应该回到职业计算机/人工智能译者的角色上,翻译他的一本新书才对。Anyway,从人类视角来看,创世纪第一天的宇宙质量应该小于第三天,所以在经验时间上,第一天应该比第三天短一点——这是我对相对论时间的神学和解。 ...
