It would not do for the passing of John Paul II to go unremarked here. His place in history cannot now be fixed , but I hope to live to see him declared a...
Thanks to Mr. Wagner for his reminisicence. At the very least it could be fairly said that the subjects of John Paul's dissertations -- St. John of the Cross &...
And don't forget Husserl! I believe John Paul's Christian Personalism was derived from H's Phenomenalism which he studied in Kracow at the Jagdelonian...

Does anyone know what thoughts Voegelin had on JP II? Did he respect his philosophizing or not? What did Voegelin think of the Pope's political and moral...
How wonderful to have met this scholar! I used Karol Wojtyla and Voegelin in my dissertation and in my defense in (2001) I contrasted these two writers'...
There is a book by Shadia Drury called Terror and Civilization. It has a chapter criticizing Voegelin. I was wondering if there has been a review / response to...
While she's a very good looker, I doubt that Dr. Drury has done a serious reading of Voegelin. Her primary focus is to trash "neocon" naturalism, for what...
I have read her stuff on Strauss. I am not likely to read this in hardcover, since I buy most of the books I read. The price for these 228 pages says something...
Yes. I would agree. I managed to thumb through the book for a bit at the library. She is not talking about the Voegelin that we know but rather some strawman...
One can read several pages at Amazon's site. I don't know of a review from a scholar favoring Voegelin. Don't know of any reviews, actually, although there...
The "quietist"/"activist" dualism has about as much merit as most dualisms -- which is to say next to none. I am following Mr. Wagner's excellent advice and...
On the supposed quietism of Augustine, he says in City of God that there are cases when so-called peace is worse than war. JvH ... -- ...

The greatest threat to any interpretation of thinkers the calibre of Voegelin -apart from the possible inability to read at all- is the absence of imagination...

This is great news. I am all set to write a sequel to the "Da Vinci Code" and pocket $200M US and get on to the $50K per lecture circuit. Theme: the Christian...
Messrs Chappell and Pagnan are being unscientific. If I must hold my breath to learn (assuming I live long enough) the truth about human history, then I think...
Dear Mr. Wagner, ... I'm not a scholar, nor do I have access to an academic library or journals. Could you perhaps expand a bit? Sincerely, David Huff...
Reading a lost play by Sophocles or Euripides would be enough reward for me. I will leave human history to fend for itself. Since Voegelin does argue that...

Many thanks to Mr. Pagnan for being in rare form today. Honestly, I had the same feelings when I read the story -- incredulity. It reads like a hoax. The...
Thanks to Larry Chappell for bringing to my attention what seems to me an unmistakably significant development for anybody who cares about the historical...
