Through the Editor's Eyes

An Inevitable Eventuality?
You Don't Say!

Catherine Groves

Catherine Groves explores how religious and spiritual systems morph over time — for example, polygamy in the Old Testament compared to Jewish and Christian standards today. Also discussed is the dubious use of "you-language," which some may find offensive or exclusivistic if they don't see themselves as part of the "you."

Zarathustra Speaks

Me-incarnation

Robert M. Price

Here, Robert M. Price takes us back to ancient Vedic Hinduism in order to clarify the original doctrine of reincarnation and trace how it evolved into a means of ceasing the "virtually endless cycle of returning." But just what is it that keeps coming back? Not the personality developed over the course of one — or many — lifetimes, it is the unconditioned divine spark, according to Price. Once severed from its Eastern roots, reincarnation came to be thought of as a way of self-realization in its Western form, rather than a path to the personal self's extinction. Price goes on to offer his own take on what will survive after his death, his me-incarnation.

A Peek Between the Covers

Joanne Winetzki

Author Frederica Mathewes-Green takes readers through an imaginary Orthodox Church, St. Felicity, in Welcome to the Orthodox Church: An Introduction to Eastern Christianity. As Joanne Winetzki describes, "reading Frederica Mathewes-Green's book feels like being accompanied by a favorite traveling companion, a knowledgeable guide who immerses us in the daily experience of being Eastern Orthodox."
