The Advent of a Three-Body Problem
The phrase, “political theology,” has been understood in at least three ways: to describe the political implications of various theologies, to describe a theology of politics, and to describe the theological language that funds modern secular political systems. This paper explores the way generative artificial intelligence intersects with each of those understandings, especially noting the impact of AI on actual physical and corporate bodies. It …

Modernity, the Environment, and the Christian Just War Tradition
Structural Inequities, HIV Community-Based Organizations, and the End of the HIV Epidemic
Community-based organizations (CBOs) are integral to achieving the goal of Ending the HIV epidemic (EHE). Their familiarity with and proximity to communities position them to effectively implement strategies necessary to address determinants of health through their formal and informal medical and social services. However, structural inequities have contributed to the demise of many organizations that were instrumental in early responses to the HI…
Christian Pacifism for an Environmental Age
In this volume, Mark Douglas offers a new vision of the history of Christian pacifism within the context of a warming world.

Along the way, Douglas draws from research in historical climatology to recover the o…

Yet these criteria were codified by the fifteenth century and favor the kinds of wars that could be fought at that time. Historic changes—in politics, economics, technology, and religion, among other spheres—not only have changed the nature of warfare, but have limited the ap…
Cybersex
The increased popularity of the Internet invites the possibility of repackaging familiar activities in a new medium. Sex is one such activity-an age-old topic with a new cybertwist. The new technologies of computer-mediated communication allow us to examine the nature of human interaction in a uniquely disembodied environment that potentially transforms the nature of self, body, and situation. Sex-fundamentally a bodily activity-provides an ideal…
