God ineffabilis <\/em><\/strong> (2015)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

In times when systemic violence plagues the global village, the question of the possibility of hope becomes even more radical. This is the central theme of Deus ineffabilis, whose theological foundation finds interlocutions with anthropology and the philosophy of history in Western thinkers, from Hegel and Benjamin to Heidegger, Girard, and Agamben. However, this issue takes on surprising nuances when analyzed from the South, with anti-systemic political thought and the decolonialism that emerge from the power of the earth's poor.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

God Absconditis<\/strong> (2011)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the crisis of the Cartesian subject, emerges the possibility of expressing God differently. These pages invite us on a quest to discover the human condition under the sign of giving and gratuity as a possible experience of the mystery of that boundless, unconditional Love which reveals itself as a source of life and compassion.

The Hidden God of Postmodernity<\/strong><\/em> (2010)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The return of the religious, the search for the foundation, the cry of nihilism, God in a mimetic-pragmatic key, and the weak subject in the mystical experience are the themes Carlos Mendoza \u00c1lvarez explores in this book.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bread, hunger and transcendence<\/em><\/strong> (2009)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Collective dialogue on food as a complex system of meaning that symbolizes the mystery of being human in relation to creation, to other human beings within diverse contexts and particular situations, and, from a faith perspective, a relationship with divinity that is not indifferent to human appetite. We are what we eat.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Explores the complex issues of postmodern religious experience in the context of the university. Common themes include vulnerability as a defining characteristic of the postmodern consciousness of the subject, as well as gratitude as a profoundly human response to the emergence of the Other.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Other God, An Approach to the Sacred in the Postmodern World<\/strong><\/em> (2003)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

A secularized and interdisciplinary approach to religious experience is a great opportunity for humanistic evolution, as it purifies the excesses of sacralized and violent emotion, in the face of ancient and new idolatries that alienate the conscience and heart of so many collective identities, making possible coexistence in religious pluralism in which it makes sense today to babble the name of God.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
