He summed up the thought of the Church Fathers and is revered by Catholics and Protestants alike.
"Even the cross . . . was a judgment seat. For the Judge was set up in the middle with the thief who believed and was pardoned on the one side and the thief who mocked and was damned on the other. Already then he signified what he would do with the living and the dead: some he will place on his right hand, others on his left." - St. Augustine (Tractates on the Gospel of John 31:11) "For as the Son was judged as a man, he shall also judge in human form." - St. Augustine (City of God, 20.30)

The Goal of This Blog
Having been influenced over the past two decades primarily by Karl Barth and John Howard Yoder, I have recently been reading St. Augustine, Dostoevesky, Solzhenitsyn, Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI. I am trying to be a catholic Evangelical and am finding myself becoming more conservative in both politics and theology in the process.
As I re-launch this blog, the goal is to "think out loud" about what it means to be faithful to Jesus Christ in the midst of the culture of death that is so prevalent in the modern West.
In particular, I want to think about the relationship of the thought of St. Augustine and that of John Howard Yoder. Yoder has been influential on my thinking for over 15 years, but I have become convinced that in order to critique modernity effectively we must go back to the pre-modern giants of the Faith and recover Augustinian - Thomistic classical orthodoxy. If we do that, do we have to abandon Yoder's theology? Is Yoder determined by modernity, despite his best intentions? Or do St. Augustine and Yoder have much more in common than one might think?

About Me
- Craig Carter
- Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- I teach theology and ethics at Tyndale University College in Toronto and I serve part-time as "Theologian in Residence" at Westney Heights Baptist Church. I firmly believe that theology is done from and for the Church and is for the people of God, not for an academic elite alone. In 2001 I published "The Politics of the Cross: The Theology and Social Ethics of John Howard Yoder" and in 2005 I published: "Rethinking Christ and Culture: A Post-Christendom Perspective." I am currently at work on a book on the doctrine of God with a (new) working title: "The Triune God and the Acids of Modernity."

Wow. That is the kind of statement that is a great commentary on culture. Great find.
Well, Nathan, can you direct me to the Environmentalist groups that are pro-life? Greenpeace? World Wildlife Federation? David Suzuki? The IPCC?
I thought not.
They deserve to be skewered for placing concern for seals above concern for human beings.
I really wish people stopped turning abortion into sinister act taken lightly. I am thankful for a healthcare system where women are not forced into back-street clinics where they are at risk of hemorrhage, infection, death, etc. People are quite misinformed if they think an abortion is an easy choice, an easy alternative to carrying a pregnancy to term. As a midwife who provides counseling to women on the topic, it infuriates me when people with religious agendas claim to have an understanding on the topic. How about you mind your own business and lay off!
Dear Lovely,
You can support murder if you want but those of us who oppose murder will never, never back off.
You don't need a religious agenda to oppose abortion: just common sense and a conscience.
If a women wants to kill her child she deserves a back-street clinic where she is at risk of hemorrhage, infection, and death.
You're damn right than an abortion is a difficult choice. It's as difficult as deciding to murder someone.
It's not difficult to understand.
The comments by lovely kaelyn read like a condensation of every silly and empty cliche that one typically hears from the prochoice crowd.
It's so strange to me how prochoice people can't see the contradiction in saying that they are glad legalized abortion doesn't put women at risk of death, when the risk of death for the infant, who is by any reasonable account a human being just like the woman, is pretty much 100%.
Oh, there are so many things I would love to say about this poster and what is says about our society. There isn't space enough but I will say this - how utterly depraved are we when we care more about inanimate objects than our own flesh and blood.
