0070 Our current Lebenswelt<\/em> is filled with word games<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same types of word games<\/em> are recorded in the Bible<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bible offers a testimony to the formation, deformation and reformation of the word, “covenant”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0071 Where, in modern inquiry into psyche and organization, do we see the word, “covenant”?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is the term, “social contract”, the same?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, the term, “social contract”, is not religious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The term, “covenant”, sounds more religious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a word game?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0072 A Course on How To Define the Word “Religion”<\/em>, available at the smashwords website, concerns our current Lebenswelt<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modern disciplines of psychology and sociology<\/em> claim to be “not religious”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, they purport to scientifically investigate religion, even though they are religions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Say what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all depends on how one defines the word, “religion”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

0073 A Course on How To Define the Word “Religion”<\/em> offers category-based tools for appreciating the nature of our current Lebenswelt<\/em>.  The term, “religion”, is grounded in the potential of meaning, presence and message<\/em>.  Meaning involves social construction.  Presence requires a three-tiered model of our differentiated world.  Message entails an actuality filled with unresolvable contradictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This course fleshes out a scientific anthropology that moves with theological anthropology, without violating what is<\/em> in the Positivist’s judgment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
