July 8, 2024 | American Protestants went to Africa in the post-WWII era with a spiritual mission, but many ended up playing significant, unforeseen roles in national and regional politics during the Cold War. Informed by extensive archival research and personal interviews, Philip Dow’s new book Accidental Diplomats (2024) explores the surprising sociopolitical impact of missionaries in Africa-particularly in Congo, Ethiopia, and Kenya. The book provides a fresh contribution to scholarly, policy, and popular discussions on the often ignored or misunderstood role of religious figures in international affairs.

I wonder if Hitchens would have the same view now. Today's world is so immoral. Religion shouldn't be taken seriously, but it does hold good people to a higher standard.
I know this Guy very well A co-man who was sent by Islamic Republic.
Being descendants of anyone is meaningless if you don’t believe! The Biblical narrative trajectory is faith in Jesus! Matthew 26:28 John 19:30 Israel saw Him! Yet they failed to believe!

Her life story is not written by a drunk in a bar. It is a fabricated and not exciting story. Rather, it is a story made up to fight Islam. It depends on the sorrows of an Indian film and not fair and just academic studies of the Islamic religion, the fastest spreading religion according to statistics from the largest global statistical center, the American Pew Statistical Center.
Tirs, did he say that?? In that case, I find him funnier and funnier. What did he say?
Have he hold any titles in boxing?
If Muslim foreigners (and of course Bosniaks) want to stick to Islam and pray to Allah, they are welcome to do so and nobody has the right to stop them. However, Muslim foreigners should not come to Bosnia and claim that Bosniaks have been historically Muslim while insinuating that Yugoslavia or "Western" post-Yugo influence made us stray away from the righteous way of life. The religious dynamic is subject to change in accordance with the changes in the political and cultural backdrop. When you go for instance to Arab countries, the first thing you do is adhere to Muslim societal norms, dress code (that affects almost exclusively women), moral code, etc., so, following the same logic, when you come to Bosnia-Herzegovina, a secular state, you have to adhere to local behavioral norms even if you deem them not to be islamic enough. Things like niqabs, as well as casual street preachers and salafist infleuncers oriented at a young audience was never a part of these norms.
The lady in the middle has such a sexy outfit. How can anyone pay attention when she has those boots on?
With the deepest appreciation and respect for Professor Charles Taylor. He is one of our great thinkers, most definitely.
The men who wrote the Constitution learned from history: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." But Congress showed the world that it doesn't care about the Constitution and favors the minority group religion that dictates American policy foreign and domestic.
Hinduism (brahminsm) has started it with jati and Varna. Its written first time in rigveda. Brahmins have made it
Now the internet is erasing Islam with a great many falling away.
Yeah those traitors are real pain in the neck huh as a aztec King I know all about traders! But if you are who you say you are don't you have some god-given power to deal with it hahahaha
Ha there's no way the supreme authority of the Chinese government and the concept of God can coexist! Ha . . . Ha . . . Hahahahahaha

I’ve never heard two people talk for so long and manage to say so little.

Corrupt governments and power structures are what lead to Jesus' cruxifiction. So I disagree fundamentally with government intervention as a means to Catholic Social teaching. We need to care for environments and the poor. But it has to be a voluntary moral framework. Not a government program where citizens and belivers are forced to contribute...
Our planet’s still cooling, said Mr Hitchens, 10 years ago, imagine the climate change warriors could have heard him saying that?😂

Animals and plants don't have the concept of God and they have better sense of morality than humans.
50:16 Goebbels was excommunicating for …
Dr. McGrath here so eloquently and beautifully held up the truth that is the Christian faith in Jesus Christ.
I do not understand that document, because the religious obligation of citizens was ruled out in many countries since the 19th century with liberalism.
Hitchens was magnanimous in arguing with people who were obviously stunningly ignorant of history, science, and devoid of common sense. All theists indeed are a waste of space. Ignorant humorless nullities.
A great man, one of the Brights.
This discussion proves that even well educated persons from Oxford can hold ridiculous and bigoted ideas. Hitchens is brilliant, as usual.
Christopher Hitchens was a pathetic anglo-saxon turd. An alcoholic bully who believed that science could provide all the answers. Nevermind that he was also pro-war, pro-colonialism and all sorts of bogus rational worldviews. A totally anti-ecological hubris. Very similar to say Yuval Harari today. The technological determinism of white men. F*CK you!
One is free to have faith in faith ….McGrath is one of so many millions
33:12-33:24 crowd's going fuckin' apeshit
Mr Abdullahi An-Naim said Sharia is not Divine. That is not true. Sharia is Divine. To cut the hands of the thieves is Divine. Allah ordered us to cut the hands of the thieves in his holy book, the Quran. I'm not saying all, but most Muslim scholars in the West do not tell the truth about their religion. He said Sharia is not Divine. That is a joke. Hi is saying Sharia is the Human understanding of the Divine!. It is just like saying the American Constitution is not the American Constitution. The Human understanding of the American constitution is the Constitution. I call that playing with the words.
love the distinction of those two ways of understanding secularization
