Christians among the Virtues
Envy
Even the mundane labors of a theology editor, such as the remarkably unenvious Joseph Mangina, can show us the importance of charity in the life of the church. Envy, a great enemy of charity, is described by Thomas Aquinas as “sorrow for another's good.” Hence in the New Testament, envy is more than just one item on a vice list. It is a vice that is destructive of community, and it is particularly destructive of the kind of love that makes the ch…
Suffering Presence
In Suffering Presence , ethicist Stanley Hauerwas delivers a well-formed theological perspective that illuminates the moral life, particularly medical care and the care of children and the handicapped
On God and Democracy
In this article I try to introduce the overall structure of Bretherton’s book Christ and the Common Life by showing how each chapter displays how talk of God and talk of politics are mutually constitutive. In particular I try to show how Bretherton’s ‘case studies’ are arranged to develop his constructive thesis. My paper was not meant to be critical, though I raise the question of whether Bretherton’s project is not a very sophisticated form of …

How to Think Theologically About Rights
In this essay I offer a nuanced account of my critique of “rights” language. I argue that my primary concern is not to discount the usefulness of rights language in contemporary expressions of legal and moral duties. Rather my concern is with the overreliance on rights language such that it guards a society from acknowledging prior claims to a common good. Rights language has become too powerful when appeals to rights threatens to replace first-o…

Remembering How and What I Think
In this essay Stanley Hauerwas reflects on his life's work by responding to the critical contributions found in the essays of this volume. Rather than trying to defend a “position,” Hauerwas takes this opportunity to offer further insight into how he sees his work to be driven by theology, insofar as his ethical reflection cannot be extricated from Christological considerations. It is this Christological center that allows him to avoid making a f…
Economics and Antagonisms
In this brief response to Brad Bateman's address I suggest that Adam Smith's contribution to "economics" is more nuanced than many of his interpreters suggest when they characterize him as a utilitarian. Rather what Smith provided was an intellectual expression of "economics" as an independent sphere that had already been created through developments such as the commoditization of time. The result of such commoditization is that modern economics …
Christianity, Democracy, and the Radical Ordinary
“Writing‐in” and “Writing‐out”
“Long Live the Weeds and the Wilderness Yet”
While we are deeply appreciative of Taylor's A Secular Age , we nonetheless worry that his use of the immanent/transcendent duality may introduce a certain kind of Christian Constantinianism that he wants to disavow. In particular, we worry that the immanent/transcendent duality is far too formal in its character. In order to develop this concern, we draw on Talal Asad's account of the secular to suggest how liturgy may provide an alternative way…
Pragmatism and Democracy
Jeffrey Stout's Democracy and Tradition intervened in debates that had extended for more than two decades across the fields of religious ethics and the philosophy of religion. A central aim of the book was to mediate a long-standing impasse between theological traditionalists and liberal secularists. The former often described liberal democracy as inhospitable—if not positively antithetical—to the substance and particularity of theological claims…
Disciplined Seeing
Drawing inspiration from Pierre Hadot and Ludwig Wittgenstein, in whose writings have been discerned a philosophical therapeutics oriented toward the cultivation of a distinctive sensibility and manner of apprehension, this essay inquires into the kinds of Christianity we see when we say that we see Christianity. We contend that, hardly the return of the repressed that it is often made out to be, the so-called turn to Christianity currently under…

Chapter 1. Timeful Friends
In this paper Hauerwas reflects on the significance of the L'Arche communities as exemplars of the true nature of Christian community. He explores the philosophy and theology of Jean Vanier as a mode of embodied theology. Hauerwas reflects critically on Michael Bérubé's book Life as We Know It, in which he describes his experiences with his son who has Down's syndrome. In drawing together the perspectives of Bérubé and Vanier, Hauerwas explores t…

Judgment and the New Morality
This essay is an attempt at a modest diatribe against some of the themes often associated with the 'new moral theology'. It is my contention that in our enthusiasm for the seeming freedom promised in the new love ethic we have forgotten that the self must be transformed if we are to see the world as it is, and that the transformation into loving persons is not accomplished overnight by declaring our good intentions but by submitting patiently to …
Ethical issues in the use of human subjects
ions such as good of mankind or rights of the individual and be clear about what ends and values science can and should serve. With the articulation of such-ends we may well find the grounds to say why each of us should be willing to serve as research subjects for the good, not of mankind, but of the communities in which we exist.5 Because we do not share these values, however, the only way we feel that we can protect ourselves from one another i…
Theology and the New American Culture
My title calls the relationship of theology and the new American culture “problematic.” That relationship is a problem, I think, on many sides and various levels. The issue involves questions I do not even know how to ask meaningfully, let alone resolve
The significance of vision Toward an aesthetic ethic
Christian Care of the Retarded
“The retarded are the sign that all men have significance beyond what they can be for us–our friend, our playmate, our brother; each of us is precious and significant because his being is grounded in God's care. The retarded, the poor, the sick, are particularly intense forms of God's call to every man through the other. God calls us to regard each other as significant as we each exist in him, as we are each God's gift to the other.”
Vision and Virtue
In describing Hauerwas' work as Christian ethics, one can allow that phrase its full scope of meaning. It is the work of an ethician who is thoroughly conversant with that branch of philosophy and comes to grips with its major issues. He is also firmly committed to the view that, in modifying the substantive 'ethics' with the adjective 'Christian, ' one is designating a distinct reality. . . . Hauerwas invites us to share an understanding of ethi…

Memory, Community and the Reasons for Living
In trying to see what significance suicide and euthanasia have in the Christian community, and how the memory and the narrative framework of that community provide resources for determining an appropriate position on suicide and euthanasia, this essay advances an experimental model of how moral notions operate within the story and convictions that sustain human communities. It is suggested that given the Christian understanding of life as a gift …
Learning to See Red Wheelbarrows
I reject the claim that my position involves a unitary view of morality by pointing out that I have never implied that a person's moral life involves “a total vision of life.” Rather my emphasis on vision is meant to direct attention away from ethical theories that make decisions about quandaries central to the moral life. The language of vision is used to make three interrelated points: (1) how difficult it is to see accurately particulare thing…

Resident Aliens
In this bold and visionary book, two leading Christian thinkers explore the alien status of Christians in today's world and offer a compelling new vision of how the Christian church can regain its vitality, battle its malaise, reclaim its capacity to nourish souls, and stand firmly against the illusions, pretensions, and eroding values of today's world. Hauerwas and Willimon call for a radical new understanding of the church. By renouncing the em…
