![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If, as Aslan contends, the gospels are both infected with Pauline theology and a source for the aboriginal Jesus cult, then how can he tell when they are wrong and when they are right? ![]() That the gospels were written later creates his second problem. The earliest references to Jesus are from Paul, wherein he is not just one of many Messianic aspirants, but more even than that. In fiction, Naomi Alderman's The Liars' Gospeldeals with many of the same ideas with both scepticism and sensitivity, while Richard Beard's Lazarus is Deadis far more imaginative in its analysis of the Jesus stories.Īslan's argument is undermined by various facts, which even he admits. From Nazareth to Nicaea by Geza Vermes should be at the top of the list AN Wilson's biographies of Jesus and Paul for the more narratively minded Albert Schweitzer's Geschichte der Leben-Jesu-Forschung of 1906 to put this tradition in context and Gustavo Gutiérrez Merino's The Theology of Liberation to show how the ideas might be activated without leaving behind the "cosmological Christ". If one were minded to follow this line, there are plenty of books that do a more scholarly job, and are written more eloquently. ![]()

Catholics were historically persecuted in Britain, which was a majority Protestant country, and anti-Catholic laws existed there until the 19th century. The members of the Marchmain family feel that they are social outsiders in Britain. However, in the novel, it is those for whom suffering is deep, genuine and spontaneous-rather than those who try to martyr themselves-who receive God’s graces. Brideshead Revisited suggests both that Catholics are legitimately persecuted, because they do not conform, and that they deliberately seek out suffering because this brings them closer to God. The novel centers around the experiences of Charles Ryder and his interactions with the Marchmain family, an aristocratic family of English Catholics who view themselves as outsiders because of the historical persecution of Catholics in Britain. The Catholic belief that suffering and persecution lead to godliness is a major aspect of Brideshead Revisited. ![]() ![]() ![]() The CAG initially estimated the loss to the exchequer to be around Rs 10.7 lakh crore but later revised this figure to Rs 1.86 lakh crore.Īlso read: Anil Swarup, IAS, who juggled coal, labour & education, says specialisation not necessaryĬoast of coal mining can’t be averaged out The CAG report on the scam, popularly dubbed Coalgate, suspected illegal allocation of coal blocks between 20 when the UPA was in power under then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
