Life and death of a Christian

[edit]

Did Pieper live thru his philosophical truth ? For he stated a vision of Christianity wherein to be a true adherent, you had to imitate or rather, ontologically, be another Christ. Presently, I am struggling with the possibility of - is it not absurd for Almighty God to set his children on a life path that of needs results in a tortuous and unjust death ? Is that not a mockery of his creation ? PaperChaseVII (talk) 10:40, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pieper in the 1930s

[edit]

From the article, it appears Pieper suddenly appeared after the war, but from [the German language version of the page ] you can see he published 7 books during the 1930s. A quick search showed some controversy (not surprising) about his relation to the Nazis: see http://cdn.theologicalstudies.net/66/66.3/66.3.6.pdf But his Leisure: the Basis of Culture refers to Ernst Niekisch and Ernst Jünger (Chapter 1) suggesting he might have been closer to the National Bolsheviks. Anything about this is probably controversial - someone with experience of handling this kind of topic might add a new section? It seems dishonest not to mention this period of his life at all Marinheiro (talk) 21:36, 27 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
