As early as the seventh century, however, questions were raised about Irish orthodoxy, primarily concerning Easter observances. Yet heresy trials did not occur in Ireland until significantly later, long after allegations of Irish apostasy from Christianity had sanctioned the English...

Es razonable suponer que los cristianos deberíamos ser más perspicaces y estar mejor informados que el resto del mundo; y ser ejemplo de personas que aman la verdad y se aman los unos a los otros.
En Mitos que los cristianos creemos y compartimos, su autor Gary S. Shogren utiliza "mito" para referirse a una creencia popular que no tiene base en los hechos y que, por lo tanto, no es verdad. La gente siempre ha creído y compartido historias falsas;...

Pantheism is the idea that God and the world are identical—that the creator, sustainer, destroyer, and transformer of all things is the universe itself. From a monotheistic perspective, this notion is irremediably heretical since it suggests divinity might be material, mutable, and multiple. Since the excommunication of Baruch Spinoza, Western thought has therefore demonized what it calls pantheism, accusing it of incoherence, absurdity,

Los herejes, los disidentes del pensamiento común, obligan a poner en duda las ideas generalmente admitidas que sobreviven en muchos casos por inercia. Los disidentes mejoran el pensamiento del que disienten. Quizá por esa razón escribió san Pablo: "Conviene que haya herejes". En nuestro tiempo la idea de herejía se ha desvanecido. Pero la palabra sigue viva para referirse a los que se apartan de las reglas escritas o no escritas.

Burning Bodies interrogates the ideas that the authors of historical and theological texts in the medieval West associated with the burning alive of Christian heretics. Michael Barbezat traces these instances from the eleventh century until the advent of the internal crusades of the thirteenth century, depicting the exclusionary fires of hell and judicial execution, the purifying fire of post-mortem purgation, and the unifying fire of God's love that...

Femi Adeleye draws on his wide-ranging experience as he examines the appeal and peril of this new gospel of prosperity that has made deep inroads in Africa, as well as in the West.

In A Diabolical Voice, Justine L. Trombley traces the afterlife of the Mirror of Simple Souls, which circulated anonymously for two centuries in four languages, though not without controversy or condemnation. Widely recognized as one of the most unusual and important mystical treatises of the late Middle Ages, the Mirror was condemned in Paris in 1310 as a heretical work, and its author, Marguerite Porete, was burned at the stake. Trombley identifies...
