Religious Exiting and Social Networks: Computer Simulations of Religious/Secular Pluralism
2021
Statistical models attempting to predict who will disaffiliate from religions have typically accounted for less than 15% of the variation in religious affiliations, suggesting that we have only a partial understanding of this vital social process. Using agent-based simulations in three “artificial societies” (one predominantly religious; one predominantly secular; and one in between), we demonstrate that worldview pluralism within one’s neighborhood and family social networks can be a significant predictor of religious (dis)affiliation but in pluralistic societies worldview diversity is less important and, instead, people move toward worldview neutrality. Our results suggest that there may …

Resumen: Este artículo se centra en un aspecto importante de los relatos martiriales que no ha sido estudiado en profundidad: los pasajes en que Dios interviene para evitar o entorpecer una ejecución pública de cristianos por parte de las autoridades romanas.

La influencia de los textos sagrados en la configuración visual de los santos guerreros
2020
espanolEl presente articulo analiza los convencionalismos y recursos visuales utilizados en las leyendas de santos guerreros, basados en las fuentes del Antiguo y el Nuevo Testamento con la finalidad de ofrecer una mayor comprension del fenomeno de la sacralizacion de la guerra y la funcion de las imagenes de santos caballeros en el ambito hispanico. Son numerosos los ejemplos en los que los santos guerreros aparecen reiteradamente amparando a los ejercitos cristianos o destrozando a las huestes enemigas. En muchos de estos casos, algunos de los elementos significantes utilizados presentan una evidente asociacion con las grandes gestas del Antiguo Testamento, conformandose como recurrentes …
The scale of divine love, mystical and catechetical text of medieval spiritual literature
2019
Abstract Early knowledge of medieval literature, not only in Latin, it transfers you into a heaven of peace. No wonder that out of such springs came out the whole methodology of the famous lectio divina (see Mario Masini) from which we still feed a large part of modern communication methods. Scala divini amoris is such a challenge for the modern reader. Preserved in a manuscript Egerton 945 in the British Library in London, the text is written in Occitan, unknown both to researchers in theology and to scholars from those specializing in Provencal. The manuscript Egerton 945 contains two major texts: Liber divinis amoris și De divina impletione.
