My ancestors were Puritans from England. They arrived here in 1648 in the hope of finding greater restrictions than were permissible under English law at that time. - Garrison KeillorpNearly every association which now clings tot he word puritan has to be eliminated when we are thinking of the early Protestants. Whatever they were, they were not sour, gloomy, or severe; nor did their enemies bring any such charge against them... For More, a Protestant was one "dronke of the new must of lewd lightness of minde and vayne gladness of harte."... Protestantism was not too grim, but too glad,to be true. CS LewisAsceticism is far more characteristic of Catholicism than of the Puritans. Celibacy and the praise of virginity are Catholic; the honour of the marriage bed is Puritan. CS LewisWhat was it that obliged Jerome to write his book, Concerning Illustrious Men? It was the common reproach of old cast upon Christians, 'That they were all poor, weak, unlearned men.' The sort of men some...
Baptists, Puritans, and the Witch Hunt!
2008-07-12 12:43:00
-By Don Boys, Ph.D. Hatred of Baptists was not limited to the Old World. The New World had its haters also and Baptists had to suffer the whip, the club, and prison to gain their religious liberty. Boston authorities imprisoned three Baptists and whipped one of them grievously. This whipping of Obadiah Holmes was witnessed by Henry ...

Weekly Shorts: Kayo Dot, These New Puritans, My Bloody Valentine & More?
2008-04-29 23:55:00
Kayo Dot - Choirs Of The Eye: Essential Post-Rock. This is brilliant post-rock, jazz, and experimental music: no structure, lots of build ups and use of lots of instruments. Utterly exquisite, utterly alive, utterly apocalyptic, ‘Choirs of the Eye’ is an album with which you may well fall hopelessly in love. Spearmint - A Week Away: A ...
Confessions of A Godly Man Wannabe

“I will never ever be able to be a godly man.” At least this is how I felt last night as I was reading, A Godly Man’s Picture by Thomas Watson. I wanted to just throw up my hands and say, “What’s the use!” I have become frustrated with the fact that I have not ...SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Confessions of A Godly Man Wannabe", url: "http://www.twoinstitutions.org-/?p=287" });

Theology in America: Christian Thought from the Age of the Puritans to the Civil War?????# Author:E. Brooks Holifield # Format:PDF 2.5MB# Page Count: 640 pages# Publisher: Yale University Press (March 11, 2005)# Language: English# ISBN-10: 030010765X# ISBN-13: 978-0300107654In this majestic achievement, Holifield (Emory University) provides a first-rate, richly evocative and unrivaled history of theology in America. With graceful prose and measured historical analysis, he traces the development of American theology from the 17th century to 1865, examining the major themes that emerged during these crucial years. He examines early American theology's grounding in Calvinism, emphasis on practicality and ethics, denominational setting, ongoing conversation with European theology, and division between academic and populist strands. Holifield contends that the defining mark of theologians in early America was their shared interest in the reasonableness of Christianity. Carefully attenti...

Muss ich wirklich These New Puritans noch vorstellen? Diese groben Einpeitscher, bei deren Gesang ich immer das Gefühl habe, die Tanzfläche sei eher ein Bootcamp? Und wo die Beats direkt aus der Stalinorgel zu kommen scheinen? Gestern fand ich allein das sehr große ‘Elvis’, das mich schlichtweg überrollt hat. Und mir genau zwei Alternativen bietet: ...

These New Puritans - Beat Pyramid
2008-02-10 20:43:00
Capita non di rado che la stampa (inglese, in questo caso) esalti delle band che, alla prova dei fatti, si dimostrano poi piuttosto inconsistenti nella sostanza. Be', non è questo il caso. Stavolta non si può che dar ragione alla stampa inglese che tanto bene ha parlato di questo nuovo gruppo. Mi sto riferendo ai These New Puritans, quattro giovani inglesi di Southend-on-Sea, e al loro album d'esordio "Beat Pyramid", uscito da poco. Un disco particolare, una ventata di aria fresca nella scena musicale rock inglese. Disco eclettico, non facilmente ed univocamente inquadrabile in un determinato genere, per via delle sue varie sfaccettature. E' un elettro-rock alternativo e sperimentale, in cui post-punk ed elettronica si mescolano insieme ad elementi indie rock e shoegaze. I These New Puritans mostrano le loro influenze, non le negano, ma sperimentano e vanno oltre. "Beat Pyramid" è un lavoro intrigante, sfacciato, coinvolgente, a tratti quasi ipnotico e psichedelico; capace di ess...

THESE NEW PURITANS - "Beat Pyramid"
2007-12-10 09:06:00
Angular Recordings/Domino Records - 2.008El 28 de enero próximo saldrá a la venta la puesta de largo de "These new puritans", lp que viene levantando una gran expectación desde que lanzaran su primer ep de "Now Pluvial" , grabado en na sesión de de 24 horas en Octubre de 2006 en un estudio casero. Grabado burdamente en audio digital en un portátil de Jack, el ep se editó en un 7" edición limitada de 500 copias por Angular Records antes de ser puesto a disposición del público para su descarga gratuita durante solo un día.These New Puritans son Jack Barnett (voz, guitarra, ordenador, sonido), su hermano gemelo George Barnett (batería, cinta, percusión), Thomas Hein (bajo, sampler, coros, percusión) y Sophie Sleigh-Johnson (sintetizadores), y se les compara a "Klaxon" o a "!!!".
These New Puritans - Helltrip, Sala Albéniz (Gijón, 26-11-2007)
2007-11-27 22:18:00
¿Qué hacía un grupo tan bisoño sin disco grande, su debut llamado Beat Pyramid lo publican a comienzos de año, como These New Puritans comandando una de las noches de la programación musical del Festival Internacional de Cine de Gijón? ¿Son acaso los británicos el nuevo hype llegado de allende del Cantábrico? Parece que sí porque de lo que se contaba de ellos en el programa oficial, incluso de los temas que tienen colgados en su página oficial de MySpace, a lo que se pudo ver y escuchar en la Sala Albéniz anoche hay un abismo. El cuarteto mostró en directo lo mejor y lo peor de su propuesta. A pesar de todo lo que han hablado y bien los medios de su país, a These New Puritans les queda un gran trecho para poder ir de estrellas por la vida. Lo más positivo de ellos es también lo más negativo. Sus temas suenan como retazos mal cosidos de bandas de finales de los setenta y principios de los ochenta, pero todo ello no lo asumen en un sonido propio. Por unos momentos re...
