Latecomer time: Theologizing development and population in Cold War Taiwan, 1950-1969 This paper applies Carl Schmitt’s katechon—the restrainer of doom in Christian eschatology – to ideas about population and development in Cold War Taiwan. Focusing on the authoritarian regime’s all...

L'hérésie américaine : faut-il brûler Peter Thiel ? | Le Grand Continent Le maître de Palantir descend sur Rome pour donner des leçons secrètes sur l'Antéchrist. Face à cette tentative de regime change théologique, le père franciscain et conseiller IA du pape Paolo Benant...

“Peter Thiel agit sur deux registres simultanés, révélateurs de la profondeur de son hérésie politique : d’un côté, il finance les forces centrifuges qui érodent l’État-nation ; de l’autre, il arme l’État pour instaurer un contrôle panoptique.” #Palantir #PoliticalTheology

Volume II of Al-Usūs wal-Munṭalaqāt — The Foundations and Premises of the Jurisprudence of Transitions — delivers the hermeneutical, historical, eschatological, and ethical pillars of one of Islamic scholarship's most ambitious contemporary frameworks. Drawing on classical Islamic jurisprudence, Peircean semiotics, Gadamerian hermeneutics, Weber's sociology of charisma, Piketty's political economy, and resilience science, the four essays in this volume build a complete, self-correcting system for Muslim communities navigating civilizational upheaval. Essay Five reveals why signs must be read as patterns and categories, never as specific identifications — and what information theory teaches about eschatological uncertainty. Essay Six applies the framework to real history: the late Ottoman Caliphate, the Arab Spring, and the financialization of global economies as prophetically illuminated phenomena. Essay Seven maps the detailed eschatology — the Mahdi, the Dajjāl, the return of Jesus, and Gog and Magog — through narrative theory and phenomenology, showing how the eschatological story functions as a community psychological resource. Essay Eight delivers the ethical destination: Manhaj al-Salāmah and Sunnat al-Mawāqif as virtue-ethics frameworks for standing firm, speaking carefully, and holding community together when the ground is shifting. #IslamicScholarship #IslamicThought #MuslimIntellectual #Fiqh #IslamicJurisprudence #Hermeneutics #ComparativeReligion #PoliticalTheology #VirtueEthics #CivilizationalStudies

After the Law: Two Systems of Justice On wealth, power, and the partiality of American law

I’ma @pcusa.bsky.social seminary student at #louisvilleseminary and recovering lawyer trying my hand at #politicaltheology. This is one of 2 posts I did this week looking at #epsteinfiles #ICE and #justicereform.

Constantine and Christianity as Imperial Power How Constantine used Christianity to consolidate imperial rule and how sacred endorsement functions as political strategy.

Constantine saw something powerful in Christianity — scalability. 🏛️✝️

Persecution ended. Councils formed. Belief became imperial glue.

When empire adopts faith, faith doesn’t stay the same.

Franco and National Catholicism in Spain How Franco fused Catholicism with state power and how religious nationalism reshapes moral priorities in modern politics.

When faith fuses with sovereignty, dissent starts to look like heresy. ✝️

Franco’s Spain shows how religion can become enforcement instead of witness — and why “defenders of the faith” aren’t always moral exemplars.

Scripture is clear: our primary identity is "citizens of heaven" (Philippians 3:20).
Love for nation should channel into dual mission of Kingdom
1 Evangelism – sharing the Gospel.
2 Discipleship – Christlike justice and mercy.

“PARDON ME,” PART VI THE REST OF THE STORY How Impunity Becomes Doctrine—and Why the Story Isn’t Over

Some pardons free a person. Others expose a system. Part VI uncovers the “rest of the story” — the recidivists, the repeat offenders, and the dangerous theology that turns clemency into impunity.

Follow the Money: The Machinery of Enrichment A theological meditation on power, profit, and the soul of a nation

When faith becomes a brand and mercy a transaction, democracy becomes a marketplace of souls. Follow the Money: The Machinery of Enrichment exposes how power, profit, and piety have fused into one empire of self-worship.
