It is as though these essays embody the bonding force he calls the Great Compassionate Curve of the universe."--Catherine Keller  "A highly readable gem."--Catholic Library World  "Inspiring, often lyrical."--St. Anthony Messenger  Like no other religious thinker, Thomas Berry has been a prophetic voice regarding Earth's destruction and the urgent need for human response from the Christian community. This book collects Berry's signature views on the interrelatedness of both Earth's future and the Christian future. He ponders why Christians have been late in coming to the issue of the environment. He reflects insightfully on how the environment must be seen as a religious issue, not simply a scientific or economic problem. In powerful and poetic language Berry presents a compelling vision of the sacredness of the universe and the interrelatedness of the Earth community. Drawing on Thomas Aquinas and Teilhard de Chardin he brings the Christian tradition into a cosmology of care for the whole of creation. 410 $aEcology and Justice Series 606 $aReligion / Essays$2bisacsh 606 $aNature / Environmental Conservation & Protection$2bisacsh 606 $aReligion / Christianity$2bisacsh 606 $aNature 615 7$aReligion / Essays 615 7$aNature / Environmental Conservation & Protection 615 7$aReligion / Christianity 615 0$aNature 676 $a261.88 700 $aBerry$b Thomas$01205567 702 $aTucker$b Mary Evelyn 702 $aGrim$b John 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910518191703321 996 $aThe Christian Future and the Fate of Earth$92781943 997 $aUNINA
