Von Jesus-Bots und Luther-Avataren : KI in der religiösen Bildungspraxis

Published by Florian Mayrhofer

Es vergeht kein Tag, an dem nicht neue Errungenschaften im Feld Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) bekannt werden. Die Entwicklungen in diesem Forschungsbereich nehmen exponentiell zu. Digitalkonzerne kämpfen um die wirtschaftliche Vormachtstellung. Das religionsbezogene Feld scheint da eher ein Nischenthema zu sein. Doch auch dort ist KI angekommen und mit Blick auf die religiöse Bildungspraxis werden Fragen nach Möglichkeiten und Grenzen von KI virulent.

Interior Castle or The Mansions

Published by Laeserin

The Interior Castle (Las Moradas, or The Mansions), written by St. Teresa of Ávila in the sixteenth century, maps the soul’s ascent to God. Teresa likens the soul to a castle of clear crystal, ordered in seven dwelling places, or mansions. In the innermost chamber God Himself abides; prayer is the way that leads within. Beyond the outer walls lie the world and the claims of the flesh; to enter the castle is to turn from distraction and set one’s face toward Him who dwells at the center.

The Saint of Hollow Glass

Published by hrf3…2lhn

In the kingdom of Aurelune, glass remembers what kings would rather forget. Mara Vey has built a reputation for exposing false miracles—a talent that has left the gifted stained-glass restorer disgraced, impoverished, and unwelcome in respectable circles. When a royal commission offers her a fortune to repair an ancient chapel before a coronation, she accepts despite the warnings. But Aurelune wears its dead in glass and keeps its royal history behind locked doors. Within a damaged window depicting a legendary queen, Mara discovers something impossible: a prince imprisoned inside the glass. Accused of murdering his brother, he warns her not to finish the work she was hired to do. As Mara investigates, missing records and forbidden names reveal a centuries-old bargain sustained by blood, silence, and the deliberate rewriting of history. Her own inheritance may grant her access to its mechanisms—but knowing how to open them is not the same as knowing what should be released. With the crown demanding restoration and the prisoner demanding freedom, Mara must decide what can be preserved, what must be exposed, and what should never be made whole again. The Saint of Hollow Glass is a gothic fantasy of forbidden knowledge, dangerous loyalties, and the cost of preserving something beautiful when its foundations are built upon atrocity.

Odysseus: Mythos und Wahrheit

Published by Laeserin

Die Abenteuer des Odysseus faszinieren die Menschen seit der Antike. Der Held erscheint als listiger Überlebenskünstler, politischer Stratege und Vertreter einer Gesellschaft, die sich neu erfindet – zwischen Seefahrt und dem Streben nach Reichtum. Dieses elegant geschriebene Buch bietet einen historisch fundierten Zugang zur Odyssee – jenseits moderner Mythen und Idealisierungen – und zeigt, dass Odysseus mehr mit uns zu tun hat, als wir glauben wollen. Jeder kennt ihn, doch niemand weiß, wer er wirklich Odysseus, der König von Ithaka, der auszog, Troja zu erobern; der auf der Rückfahrt bis ans Ende der Welt verschlagen wird, um nach 20 Jahren Frau und Heimat zurückzugewinnen. Der berühmteste Held der homerischen Epen ist aber auch Repräsentant einer Schlüsselepoche der Antike, die unsere Kultur bis heute prägt. Raimund Schulz zeigt am Leben des Odysseus das ungeschminkte Antlitz einer Zeit voller Not, Unsicherheit und Ängste, eine Welt der politischen Kämpfe und der Abenteuer, in der starke Frauen dem Helden den Weg weisen.Die Entzauberung eines Helden lässt ein Weltepos in neuem Licht Es ist Spiegel einer Gesellschaft, die alle menschlichen Abgründe kennt, die Raub und Mord zum Überlebensmotto macht, in der Triumph und tiefer Fall ganz nahe beieinander liegen, die aber auch um den Wert des Menschen weiß, der sich wie Odysseus immer wieder aufrichtet und gegen alle Widrigkeiten überlebt.

Religionsunterricht als Studium der Religion(en) – Zur Profilierung des religionsdidaktischen Prinzips Forschendes Lernen

Published by laoc42

Der Beitrag erschließt Forschendes Lernen nach The RE-searchers Approach als fachdidaktisches Prinzip für verschiedene Formate des RU. Er zeigt, warum dieses Prinzip zu einem umfassenden Begriff religiöser Bildung beitragen kann und reflektiert im Zuge dessen kritisch das überfachliche Paradigma der Kompetenzorientierung. Vorgestellt werden hierzu auch die empirischen Befunde einer Studie, die das praktische Potential Forschenden Lernens geprüft hat. Im Zuge des internationalen Diskurses eines methodological turn religiöser Bildung plädiert der Autor für die didaktische Struktur eines RU als Studium der Religion(en) – auch als Antwort auf grundsätzliche Anfragen an das Schulfach.

Published by RogueHashrate

The book is a warning and diagnosis. Fr. Seraphim argues that many modern religious, spiritual, and cultural movements are not neutral or harmless but are preparations for a future false spirituality that will oppose authentic Christianity. He frames this within Orthodox Christian theology, especially the patristic understanding of deception, prelest (spiritual delusion), and the coming of Antichrist.

Wuthering Heights

Published by StellaInForest

Amidst the bleak and wind-swept Yorkshire moors, a dark storm is brewing. When the foundling Heathcliff is brought to the isolated estate of Wuthering Heights, he sparks a connection with the spirited Catherine Earnshaw that transcends the boundaries of friendship and social class. But when betrayal tears them apart, a raw, all-consuming passion curdles into a ruthless quest for vengeance. Spanning two generations and two houses, Emily Brontë’s only novel is a haunting exploration of a love so fierce it refuses to be silenced—even by death.
