Occupy Religion introduces readers to the growing role of religion
in the Occupy Movement and asks provocative questions about how
people of faith can work for social justice. From the temperance
movement to the Civil Rights movement, churches have played key
roles in important social movements, and Occupy Religion shows this
role is no less critical today.
Three Translations of the Koran (Al-Qu'ran) side-by-side with each
verse not split across pages. This book compiles three English
translations of the Koran, by Abdullah Yusuf Ali, Marmaduke
Pickthall and Mohammad Habib Shaki, in three columns, aligned so it
is possible to read across and compare translations for each verse.
What role does, could or should theology play in current
discussions about our political realities? Is there a place for
theological worldviews in the public conversation about policy
making? Should theology critically unmask the underlying
theological and metaphysical sources of contemporary politics? The
contributors to this volume reflect on new questions in public and
political theology, inspired by the theology of Edward
Schillebeeckx. They discuss a variety of theological traditions and
theories that could offer substantial contributions to current
political challenges, and debate whether theology should contribute
to the liberation of communities of poor and suffering people.
