There's a felt tension when trying to remain hopeful without denying what's happening, or trying to remain honest about what's happening without hardening against the world altogether. We've grown accustomed to treating those impulses as opposites, yet they often arrive together, because the anger is only possible when the love is real, and the hope only stays honest because something in us refuses to look away.

#Neoplatonism gave #Augustine the philosophical vocabulary and metaphysical framework he needed, but Christianity (especially Paul) gave him the drama of sin, grace, and redemption that #Plotinus never could.

Augustine and Vedanta are closer to each other than either is to Plotinus in rejecting the idea that matter is intrinsically evil, but they still differ sharply in how they explain evil and the human predicament.

Augustine of Hippo was an African bishop, writes on heresies, and quotes 1 Cor 6:10 & Eph 5:5 to insist that the covetous, extortioners won’t inherit the kingdom.
Would it be fair to say that the modern church is in open rebellion against this teaching? Even if we clarify it’s not a wooden legalism against any interest at all.
How can you repent of covetousness?

#Christianity and the #Fear of #OriginalSin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0icTcflr9ac
This video explores the Christian #doctrine of original #sin and the fear it has inspired throughout history. From #Augustine’s teachings to modern reinterpretations, we’ll examine how the idea of inherited sin has shaped Christian life, #theology, and culture. Is original sin a truth about human nature, a source of #guilt and fear, or a path to understanding #God’s #grace?

Recent acquisition for our personal library:
📖 Confessions by Saint Augustine of Hippo
I casually collect interesting Penguin Classics and you're looking at a handful of the first PCs, the 'L series'. Some are American editions with price in $ and some are British with price in £. They sit on my desk at the standalone mid-size public library where I have worked for 17 years and where I am the librarian over adult nonfiction, local history, and reference.

@histodons @historikerinnen @womenknowhistory
1) Since the #MiddleAges #peace and justice were regarded as core virtues of any ruler. The interconnection between peace and sovereignty can be traced back to Roman Emperor Augustus. But first #Augustine transferred this conception of peace into the framework of Christianity. Thomas Aquinas built on this when he related peace to the common good and declared maintaining this peace to be a ruler's task. -

It was a pretty surreal moment when the book arrived on my office desk - #phdlife has finally come to an end 🥳 Now you can read what I've written about #Augustine, his letters, the women he corresponded with, and also about his mother Monnica and his former partner, the mother of his son Adeodatus

Once upon a time I was living and praying in an Augustinian convent discerning contemplative religious life.
Now I'm a mom of, like, a *million* kids and have the least contemplative life I could imagine.
But St Augustine and all he reflected has shaped my entire heart and soul.Blessed Feast of St Augustine to all my fellow Augustinians, all named Gus, all who find their belonging in genuine friendships, and all who are restless! ❤️🔥

I had two philosophy teachers when I went to high school. If I'd only had the first, I might have never considered studying it again. Fortunately, the second one took over a class last-minute. Here's the story

Of course the history of #Christianity in #Africa is not all peachy. #Augustine condoned coercion against the Donatists, and in Alexandria his contemporary Neoplatonist philosopher Hypatia was lynched by a Christian mob in 415.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HypatiaA generation earlier, in 391, Christians and Roman soldiers destroyed the Serapeum (temple of the Egyptian god Serapis) in Alexandria, plundering it and replacing it with a monastery.

“There are wolves within, and there are sheep without [the church].” ~St Augustine
-
The Gods are ends in themselves, no promise either of earthly success or eternal life is necessary to make them worthy of respect. There is no hierarchy in the universe, no being fundamentally "deserves" or "doesn't deserve" worship, because moral categories are socially emergent. Ultimately the category of "God" is a social relation between two beings.
In the City of God, Augustine goes on and on about how only the god who made the world and promises eternal life is "worthy" of worship and it's like, why? The only people who should be worshipping Jesus are people who have an edifying relationship either with him as a god, with one of his saints or with his church. Eternal life and his identification with the logos or the demiurge or whatever don't enter into it.
Deity is not a means to an end!

@Seitansbraten @kerstinsailer It’s not so much the casein as all the microbial side products & effects. Where can I get the heptan-2-one hit that comes with a Stilton or a Bleu d’auvergne? Or the delicate crystalline fragments that you get in a medium aged grana or cheddar matrix? Or the slow slump of a ripe taleggio or St Marcellin. Or the squidgy of the outside of a burrata concealing mild inner goop. The mind is willing but the flesh is weak. #Augustine #cheese

The forum and #Byzantine fort in #Madauros in #Algeria. It had been made a #Roman colony for veterans in the first century during the reign of the Emperor Nerva.
The town was the birthplace in 124AD of the Numidian #Apuleius who wrote the only #Latin Roman novel, "The Golden Ass" or "Metamorphoses", to survive fully intact. He also coined the proverb "familiarity breeds contempt."
Saint #Augustine of Hippo studied there in the 4th century.
