A Tale of Nouns and Verbs: Rejoinder to Ann Taves
MOST SIMPLY PUT, are we studying nouns or verbs? That is the question that I pose as a rejoinder to Ann Taves' reply. For I notice a curious grammatical ambivalence in her most recent book, Religious Experience Reconsidered (2009)—a book that I admit to using too little in my earlier review essay (2010), seeing it merely as the jumping-off point for a longer reflection on the (questionable, to my way of thinking) gains of the cognitive science of…

Rethinking the War against Iraq
IntroductionA question that had dogged me for years prior to living in Iraq in 2000 came into sharp focus while sitting in shade of a tree in courtyard of Al-Hamra hotel, located in a suburb of Baghdad.1 According to mainstream public discourse in Canada, and in places where I travelled in United States in years following my first two visits to Iraq in 1991, country was no longer experiencing war. Gulf War, according to this discourse, had ended …

Religion, Ire, and Dangerous Things
In response to Ivan Strenski's criticism of those who study the history and politics of the category “religion,” this essay introduces some nuance into this debate by distinguishing between the two traditions contributing to this exercise: the normative (associated with the work of Wilfred Cantwell Smith) and the socio-rhetorical (associated with the work of Jonathan Z. Smith). Whereas the former position concludes that the category “religion” is…
Methods and Theories in the Classroom: Teaching the Study of Myths and Rituals
L'A. presente une serie d'ouvrages consacres a l'etude des mythes. Il pense que la bonne sante future de cette discipline depend de la capacite de ceux qui la pratiquent a developper et defendre des theories face a des intuitions. La cooperation interdisciplinaire sera essentielle pour la survie de la discipline a l'universite. Les theories de la religion sont souvent construites sur des theories du mythe et du rituel; c'est donc un bon point de …
The Use of Health Initiatives as Peace Initiatives
This paper explores the relationship between health initiatives and peace initiatives in the context of armed conflict. Our working definition of a “Health‐Peace Initiative” (HPI) is any initiative that intends to improve the health of people and that simultaneously heightens that group's level of peace, whether this peace is internal to the group or between the group and one or more other groups. We seek to identify multiple tracks to peace with…
