Secular Theology according to the Secular Humanism Worldview. My friends at Summit Ministries continue their series on comparative world views with a study of Secular Humanism as it relates to Theology. (Part 2 of 13).
Please visit http://www.Summit.org for more videos and resources for understanding Secular Humanism and developing a Biblical Christian Worldview, including various Summit camps and retreats.

UU University 2009 -Theology for a Secular Age
Part 1 - "How do we know what we most truly know?"
The transformation of theology for a secular age formed the basis of this track. Learn to think and talk about your faith in ways that balance your religious wisdom with scientific insight.
What distinguishes Unitarian Universalism (UUism) from other faith traditions?
What is the relationship between your personal faith and your religious community?
As a person of faith, how do you balance religious wisdom and scientific insight?
Theology is the process of talking about faith in a thoughtful and organized way—how faith arises, what sustains it, why it falters, and where it can make a difference in our lives and world.
Today, theology stands at a crossroad. For centuries, theology has described how divine revelation accounts for our experience and dictates our actions. What happens to religion when reason, rather than revelation, becomes our most reliable source of knowledge?
In a secular age, people who believe in science can be genuinely religious—if theology itself is transformed.

What is SECULAR THEOLOGY? What does SECULAR THEOLOGY mean? SECULAR THEOLOGY meaning.
The field of secular theology, a subfield of liberal theology advocated by Anglican bishop John A. T. Robinson somewhat paradoxically combines secularism and theology. Recognized in the 1960s, it was influenced both by neo-orthodoxy, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Harvey Cox, and the existentialism of Soren Kierkegaard and Paul Tillich. Secular theology digested modern movements like the Death of God Theology propagated by Thomas J. J. Altizer or the philosophical existentialism of Paul Tillich and eased the introduction of such ideas into the theological mainstream and made constructive evaluations, as well as contributions, to them.
John Shelby Spong advocates a nuanced approach to scripture (as opposed to blunt Biblical literalism at the other end of the scale), informed by scholarship and compassion, which he argues can be consistent with both Christian tradition and a contemporary understanding of the universe. Secular theology holds that theism has lost credibility as a valid conception of God's nature. It rejects the concept of a personal God and embraces the status of Jesus Christ, Christology and Christian eschatology as Christian mythology without basis in historical events.
The movement chiefly came about as a response to general dissatisfaction with the Christian establishment's tendency to lapse into "provincialism" when presented with the "unusual" theological ideas common during the 1960s. The movement also suggested the legitimacy of seeking the holy outside the church itself. Thereby it suggests that the church did not have exclusive rights to divine inspiration. In a sense, this incorporated a strong sense of continuous revelation in which truth of the religious sort was sought out in poetry, music, art, or even the pub and in the street.
Certain other religions besides Christianity have developed secular theologies and applied these to core concepts of their own traditions. Notable among such movements has been the Reconstructionist Judaism of Mordecai Kaplan, which understands God and the universe in a manner concordant with Deweyan naturalism.
In Hinduism, the Advaita school of theology is generally regarded as non-theistic as it accepts all interpretations of God or Ishvara.

VLOG 40 Why Christians should prefer a secular state
What is the best kind of state a Christian should desire for their nation? Naively some Christians believe that if you have Christians, or Christian political parties, governing the nation it would be a good thing. In my view that is a mistake!
Simply stated, we already have self professed Christians in three of the most serious positions in our political dispensation (Jacob Zuma was ordained as a Christian pastor by a Pentecostal denomination, Mr Maimane (leader of the DA, the official opposition) is also an ordained pentecostal Church pastor, and the Chief Justice, Mogoeng Mogoeng is also a pentecostal Church pastor). A recent parliamentary survey showed that 65% of parliamentarians are Methodist.
Still, South Africa is not where it should be - we are unjust and have some serious political and economic problems!
In this video I explain why a religious state is a bad idea! I developed this idea in my recent book 'Between Capital and Cathedral: Essays on Church and State Relationships' (co authored with my friend from UNISA, Dr Wessel Bentley).
Some years ago I was privileged to hear a lecture by Professor Martin Prozesky at the Joint Conferences on Religion and Theology at Stellenbosch University. The title of his lecture was the following: 'Is the secular state to blame for the decline in moral values in Southern African society'.
The gist of the lecture is this: Does a secular state contribute towards the decline of moral and ethical values? Many religious groups and faith communities would seem to suggest that this is so. Martin makes an exceptional argument that a secular state (not to be confused with secularization) makes for a high moral and ethical standard in society.
The reasons, as stated above, is quite simply that the only alternatives to a secular state (i.e., a state that his not swayed in an direction by religious beliefs) is a theocracy (such as nations in which Islamic law is applied in the name of God), a anti-faith states (such as the former Russian republic, or China, or North Korea). Neither of these are desirable for truly moral and ethical development. Rather, what is necessary is the kind of freedom that allows all citizens to participate in developing ethics for the common good of the whole of society.
He makes some wonderful statements about what ethics is in its broadest terms. He also discusses the notion of a secular state and makes reference to problems with Southern African constitutional democracy.
I found it most interesting! I would love to hear your comments and feedback!
I'd love to hear your take on this!
Remember, it's not a lecture, just a thought…
I’d love you hear your feedback, comments, questions and ideas!

UU University 2009 -Theology for a Secular Age
Part 1 - "How do we know what we most truly know?"
The transformation of theology for a secular age formed the basis of this track. Learn to think and talk about your faith in ways that balance your religious wisdom with scientific insight.
What distinguishes Unitarian Universalism (UUism) from other faith traditions?
What is the relationship between your personal faith and your religious community?
As a person of faith, how do you balance religious wisdom and scientific insight?
Theology is the process of talking about faith in a thoughtful and organized way—how faith arises, what sustains it, why it falters, and where it can make a difference in our lives and world.
Today, theology stands at a crossroad. For centuries, theology has described how divine revelation accounts for our experience and dictates our actions. What happens to religion when reason, rather than revelation, becomes our most reliable source of knowledge?
In a secular age, people who believe in science can be genuinely religious—if theology itself is transformed.

What is SECULAR THEOLOGY? What does SECULAR THEOLOGY mean? SECULAR THEOLOGY meaning.
The field of secular theology, a subfield of liberal theology advocated by Anglican bishop John A. T. Robinson somewhat paradoxically combines secularism and theology. Recognized in the 1960s, it was influenced both by neo-orthodoxy, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Harvey Cox, and the existentialism of Soren Kierkegaard and Paul Tillich. Secular theology digested modern movements like the Death of God Theology propagated by Thomas J. J. Altizer or the philosophical existentialism of Paul Tillich and eased the introduction of such ideas into the theological mainstream and made constructive evaluations, as well as contributions, to them.
John Shelby Spong advocates a nuanced approach to scripture (as opposed to blunt Biblical literalism at the other end of the scale), informed by scholarship and compassion, which he argues can be consistent with both Christian tradition and a contemporary understanding of the universe. Secular theology holds that theism has lost credibility as a valid conception of God's nature. It rejects the concept of a personal God and embraces the status of Jesus Christ, Christology and Christian eschatology as Christian mythology without basis in historical events.
The movement chiefly came about as a response to general dissatisfaction with the Christian establishment's tendency to lapse into "provincialism" when presented with the "unusual" theological ideas common during the 1960s. The movement also suggested the legitimacy of seeking the holy outside the church itself. Thereby it suggests that the church did not have exclusive rights to divine inspiration. In a sense, this incorporated a strong sense of continuous revelation in which truth of the religious sort was sought out in poetry, music, art, or even the pub and in the street.
Certain other religions besides Christianity have developed secular theologies and applied these to core concepts of their own traditions. Notable among such movements has been the Reconstructionist Judaism of Mordecai Kaplan, which understands God and the universe in a manner concordant with Deweyan naturalism.
In Hinduism, the Advaita school of theology is generally regarded as non-theistic as it accepts all interpretations of God or Ishvara.

VLOG 40 Why Christians should prefer a secular state
What is the best kind of state a Christian should desire for their nation? Naively some Christians believe that if you have Christians, or Christian political parties, governing the nation it would be a good thing. In my view that is a mistake!
Simply stated, we already have self professed Christians in three of the most serious positions in our political dispensation (Jacob Zuma was ordained as a Christian pastor by a Pentecostal denomination, Mr Maimane (leader of the DA, the official opposition) is also an ordained pentecostal Church pastor, and the Chief Justice, Mogoeng Mogoeng is also a pentecostal Church pastor). A recent parliamentary survey showed that 65% of parliamentarians are Methodist.
Still, South Africa is not where it should be - we are unjust and have some serious political and economic problems!
In this video I explain why a religious state is a bad idea! I developed this idea in my recent book 'Between Capital and Cathedral: Essays on Church and State Relationships' (co authored with my friend from UNISA, Dr Wessel Bentley).
Some years ago I was privileged to hear a lecture by Professor Martin Prozesky at the Joint Conferences on Religion and Theology at Stellenbosch University. The title of his lecture was the following: 'Is the secular state to blame for the decline in moral values in Southern African society'.
The gist of the lecture is this: Does a secular state contribute towards the decline of moral and ethical values? Many religious groups and faith communities would seem to suggest that this is so. Martin makes an exceptional argument that a secular state (not to be confused with secularization) makes for a high moral and ethical standard in society.
The reasons, as stated above, is quite simply that the only alternatives to a secular state (i.e., a state that his not swayed in an direction by religious beliefs) is a theocracy (such as nations in which Islamic law is applied in the name of God), a anti-faith states (such as the former Russian republic, or China, or North Korea). Neither of these are desirable for truly moral and ethical development. Rather, what is necessary is the kind of freedom that allows all citizens to participate in developing ethics for the common good of the whole of society.
He makes some wonderful statements about what ethics is in its broadest terms. He also discusses the notion of a secular state and makes reference to problems with Southern African constitutional democracy.

The Source of William Branham Theology
A comparison of William Branham's theology with previous secular writers, religious leaders and works that are not Christian nor based on the King James Bible. For the sake of brevity, I chose to only show one sermon per subject because William Branham said the same things many times in many different churches or conventions, also from the books written for him that were dictated and edited by others using his words. All sermons of Branham were taken directly from Voice of God Recordings, transcribed from the taped sermons. There are no transcriptions prior to 1947. William Branham misrepresented himself and other religious leaders, quoted directly from those other sources and incorporated those teachings into his. It is very easy to disprove his claims, which were fraudulent. He c...

The transformation of theology for a secular age formed the basis of this track. Learn to think and talk about your faith in ways that balance your religious wisdom with scientific insight.
What distinguishes Unitarian Universalism (UUism) from other faith traditions?
What is the relationship between your personal faith and your religious community?
As a person of faith, how do you balance religious wisdom and scientific insight?
Theology is the process of talking about faith in a thoughtful and organized way—how faith arises, what sustains it, why it falters, and where it can make a difference in our lives and world.
Today, theology stands at a crossroad. For centuries, theology has described how divine revelation accounts for our experience and dictates our actions. What happens to religion when reason, rather than revelation, becomes our most reliable source of knowledge?
In a secular age, people who believe in science can be genuinely religious—if theology itself is transformed.

A comparison of William Branham's theology with previous secular writers, religious leaders and works that are not Christian nor based on the King James Bible.
For the sake of brevity, I chose to only show one sermon per subject because William Branham said the same things many times in many different churches or conventions, also from the books written for him that were dictated and edited by others using his words.
All sermons of Branham were taken directly from Voice of God Recordings, transcribed from the taped sermons. There are no transcriptions prior to 1947.
William Branham misrepresented himself and other religious leaders, quoted directly from those other sources and incorporated those teachings into his.
It is very easy to disprove his claims, which were fraudulent. He claimed a healing ministry as an evangelist in the early 1940s, more information is coming out of his earlier days of ministry.
His associations were very controversial, he was friends with F.F. Bosworth who was a member of John Alexander Dowie's Zion, Illinois church, Bosworth was a friend of Charles Parham.
Branham was also associated with Dr. Roy E. Davis, the Grand Imperial Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan. For a short time he worked with Jim Jones.
Branham constantly ripped-off the experiences of others, claiming them for himself and borrowed from newspapers, magazines, movies, literature and newsreels of major events to claim as prophetic or miraculous events for himself.
He claimed that he had a series of visions in 1933 that he had buried in the foundation of his church, however, those 1933 "visions" were after the fact and historically wrong. There were no visions buried in any box in the foundation, when it was repaired after a car struck it, nothing was there.
He blatantly lied about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon, claiming that Joseph Smith specifically wrote about Nazism, Germany and William Branham.
He told many lies about other things, including using the death of Donny Morton to make himself look like a healer, he lied about his own wife's death to appear as a suffering prophet like Jeremiah, he lied about healing King George, Florence Shirlaw and Kari Holma. He also claimed that more miracles were done in his services than in the Bible.
The information is easily obtained, there can be no doubt now as to his fraudulence and his sons Billy Paul and Joseph Branham travel the world with the same lies and frauds to bring people into the cult of William Branham because they are receiving millions of dollars as cult leaders.
Branham was the friend of Ewald Frank who was the mentor of Paul Schafer of the Colonia Dignidad in Chile.
