O jornal Expositor Cristo, rgo oficial da Igreja Metodista no Brasil, nasceu em 1886, com uma proposta que se poderia chamar de ecumnica: seu primeiro nome, Methodista Catholico, revela o desejo de universalidade, confirmado pelo editorial de estria. Seu criador, o missionrio norte-americano John James Ransom, pretendia um veculo de orientao doutrinria que no fosse sectrio, em consonncia com a tradio wesleyana. Mas o Metodista Catlico teve vida curta: em pouco mais de um ano passou a se chamar Expositor Cristo. O campo religioso brasileiro vivia, ento, o perodo da controvrsia apologtica, com a insero do protestantismo de misso, de origem anglo-sax, em contraposio ao catolicismo romano. O nome do recm-nascido jornal foi mais uma vtima dos embates. Este trabalho se disps a avaliar como o jornal tratou a questo do ecumenismo desde esse perodo at a entrada da Igreja Metodista no CONIC, Conselho Nacional de Igrejas Crists, no incio da dcada de 1980. A pesquisa constatou que o anticatolicismo arraigado no metodismo brasileiro em seus primrdios jamais desapareceu por completo. Notou tambm que o metodismo no esteve imune aos conflitos interdenominacionais existentes no prprio meio evanglico. Em que pese o reconhecido pioneirismo da Igreja Metodista na criao de organismos ecumnicos brasileiros, o ecumenismo sempre enfrentou barreiras internas, mais ou menos explcitas. E o jornal Expositor Cristo, criado para ser um veculo de informao e formao doutrinria, nem sempre comunicou com a necessria clareza qual o significado que a Igreja Metodista confere palavra ecumenismo e como ela o pratica. Em alguns momentos, a coexistncia entre ecumenismo e antiecumenismo no interior do campo metodista no foi trazida luz dos debates pelo jornal, mas permaneceu oculta por omisses e ambivalncias. o que este trabalho pde constatar a partir de uma avaliao qualitativa do contedo do jornal.(AU)

A presente dissertao analisa como o Partido Social Cristo (PSC), ao longo do tempo, se apropriou da identidade religiosa de seus atores polticos que na sua maioria so membros da Frente Parlamentar Evanglica, os quais defendem no espao pblico a famlia tradicional, em detrimento da pluralidade de arranjos familiares na contemporaneidade. Para explicitar o objeto - famlia tradicional e PSC -, foi necessrio retroceder no tempo e investigar na historiografia os primrdios da insero dos evanglicos na poltica brasileira. Em vista disso, analisamos a participao dos evanglicos nos respectivos perodos do Brasil: Colnia, Imprio e Repblica. A dificuldade da entrada de evanglicos na poltica partidria, dentre outros fatores, se deve influncia do catolicismo no Estado. Assim sendo, averiguamos em todas as Constituies (1824, 1891, 1934, 1937, 1946, 1967, 1969 e 1988) o que a mesma diz no que tange a proibio e a liberdade religiosa no pas. Logo, verificamos entre as Eras Vargas e Repblica Populista, que ocorreu com intensidade a transio do apoliticismo para o politicismo entre os evanglicos brasileiros, porm, eles no recebiam o apoio formal de suas igrejas. Em seguida, a participao dos evanglicos na arena poltica durante a ditadura militar foi investigada com destaque para o posicionamento de vanguarda da IECLB, atravs do Manifesto de Curitiba e, tambm com a presena de parlamentares evanglicos no Congresso Nacional. A politizao pentecostal ressaltada em nosso trabalho, atravs do pioneirismo de Manoel de Mello e, depois na Redemocratizao quando as instituies evanglicas se organizaram para eleger seus candidatos Assembleia Nacional Constituinte. E, com o fim do regime militar, o PSC surge como partido nanico, contudo, deixa o anonimato e ganha visibilidade miditica quando o pastor e deputado, Marco Feliciano, assume a presidncia da Comisso de Direitos Humanos e Minorias, em 2013. Esse o pano de fundo histrico que projetou o PSC e seus atores no pleito de 2014 com o mote famlia tradicional.

This study deals with the question of how German members of the European Parliament (MEPs) represent the German model of religionstate relations at the European level. Based on a survey and interviews with German MEPs as well as a content-analysis of German MEPs speeches, motions and parliamentary questions during the seventh term of the European Parliament (EP), our study demonstrates that this model is represented in three dimensions. First, German MEPs reflect the close cooperation between the churches and the state in Germany, primarily on social issues, through largely church- and religion-friendly attitudes and relatively frequent contacts with religious interest-groups. Second, by referring to religious freedoms and minorities primarily outside the EU and by placing Islam in considerably more critical contexts than Christianity, German MEPs create a cultural demarcation line between Islam and Christianity through their parliamentary activities, which is similar to, though less politicised than, cultural boundaries often produced in public debates in Germany. Third, our study illustrates similar patterns of religious affiliation and subjective religiosity among German parliamentarians in both the EP and the national Parliament, which to some degree also reflect societal trends in Germany. Yet our data also suggest that European political elites are more religious than the average German population. If the presence of religion in terms of religious interest-groups and arguments is included, the EP appears to be more secularist than the German Parliament.

The Evangelical Church is an institution that presents itself as a group that aims to be a mediator between society, the state and the country itself. However political practice within the churches have been somewhat taken authoritarian, manipulative, intolerant and realize this reality in the analysis of this work. While understanding that the Church as an institution has formed an opinion about what is right and wrong in their communities as a social institution can be seen in contemporary society growing religious occupation of the public sphere and in all segments of Brazilian society the presence of evangelicals. One of the challenges is the discussion of the practices of Christ when the ownership of the mandate legitimized by the vote happens, what real action is the "Christ policy"? What social contributions to retrieve people, places and cities? What is the competence to work towards promoting the other gains in health, employment, security, education? The purpose of this dissertation is to contribute to the questioning of the current logic and prevailing construction of Christian ideals in politics. Develop an investigation by reference to the absence of a study on the activity of the evangelical councilors Christmas during the period 2004 -2008, order to be able assign a value judgment based on information of projects that every evangelical councilor exercised during the 15th Legislature, occasion that the City Council received the highest representation of evangelical councilors in its history.

A religio de Umbanda ocupa grande espao na vida e no imaginrio religioso brasileiro, e adota as lendas, mitos e folclore da cultura popular brasileira. Desprovida de texto sagrado, a Umbanda rejeita a ideia do entendimento de uma literatura sagrada como pressuposto para uma ligao com o divino, sendo mais preocupada com a experincia religiosa e do sagrado, como ponte entre a dimenso humana e divina. Embora de comum acordo sobre a importncia da prtica na religio de Umbanda, existe um forte debate teolgico na questo do valor principal para as prticas e vida religiosa do filho de santo. De um lado, temos a Doutrina Esotrica que aposta na produo textual e terica e, de outro, temos a Umbanda de popular, que aposta na experincia pessoal do filho de santo com a tradio oral e as prticas religiosas. De sua fundao at a presente data, a Umbanda Esotrica tem apostado na formao acadmica como base principal para a instrumentalizao do filho de santo para a prtica no terreiro, assim como publicao de textos, livros, artigos, oferecimento de cursos e a criao da primeira instituio especializada de ensino, a Faculdade de Teologia Umbandista. Se por um lado, para alguns, isso possa parecer uma abertura para a modernizao e melhor aceitao das prticas de origem africanas, para outros, representa uma limitao na prtica e na experincia do filho de santo devido racionalidade do espao acadmico. Desse modo, pretendo investigar esse conflito no discurso e nas suas especificidades, estudando literatura especializada e orgnica, tendo como eixo de investigao a seguinte questo: O que mais importante para as prticas religiosas em Umbanda, a formao prtica ou a acadmica?

This thesis combines historical reflection with qualitative research to examine how Christian young women from Evangelical traditions are developing religious self- understanding in empowering ways. It seeks to establish connections between the ways in which historians and feminist theologians have responded to forces of restriction and limitation in Christian womens past, and the strategies of self-empowerment adopted by Evangelical young women today. This study approaches Christian history and the present condition of female self-understanding through three central questions: How do young women understand themselves in relation to the imago Dei? How do young women understand themselves in relation to the Bible? How do young women understand themselves in relation to Christian mission? The first chapter addresses the ways in which young women are responding to historic denials of woman as the imago Dei and concepts of female inferiority or especial guilt by reclaiming possession of the divine image. The next section discusses how young women are relating to the Bible in empowering ways, both by adopting similar strategies to those utilised throughout Christianitys past, and through the development of their own patterns of interpretation. Finally, this thesis draws attention to Christian mission as a space of empowerment, examining how young women develop life-enriching knowledge of God and self through involvement with mission. This thesis proposes that as young women continue to develop strategies that enable them to understand themselves and their faith in empowering ways, knowledge of their innate dignity and potential will inspire them and those who come after them to witness to God freely and fully in all contexts.

This dissertation stands out the religious and social role of Christian religious minorities in Portuguese society, where the vast majority of the believers profess the Catholic faith. This work serves to demystify the widespread prejudice against minorities and clarify its place in the religious phenomenon in Portugal. We intend to define the concept of Religion, missing in the Portuguese legislation, framing it in Portuguese constitutional history, which allows us to evaluate the relations State/Catholic Church and State/religious minorities, since Liberalism. We attempt to measure how the legal system accepts the religious phenomenon and how to deal with religious diversity, according to the principle of religious freedom postulated in the Constitution of the Portuguese Republic. It is also our intention to relate the concepts of sect and religious minority, which tendentiously are misunderstood. In order to understand the underlying dynamics of religious minorities, we take the example of the Portuguese Evangelical Alliance, which we monitored closely throughout the investigation. We will give some space for a small analysis of the state and social discrimination experienced by the minorities. With this work we can conclude in general that Portugal, despite its weak religious diversity, has a good advance on the religious freedom. The Portuguese State has made a remarkable effort to cooperate with the churches, an effort that must be continued in order to fill some gaps found, particularly in the absence of legislation regarding the criminalization of religious discrimination and competence of the Committee on Religious Freedom in case of a possible complaint. We prove similarly that there is also a special attention to the Catholic Church in the composition of the Committee on Religious Freedom and the Committee Broadcast Time of Religious Confessions. In the end, we prove that the society is the major source of discrimination against minorities.

We announce the discovery of the transiting planet CoRoT-13b. Ground-based follow-up in CFHT and IAC80 confirmed CoRoT's observations. The mass of the planet was measured with the HARPS spectrograph and the properties of the host star were obtained analyzing HIRES spectra from the Keck telescope. It is a hot Jupiter-like planet with an orbital period of 4.04 days, 1.3 Jupiter masses, 0.9 Jupiter radii, and a density of 2.34 g cm(-3). It orbits a G0V star with T(eff) = 5 945 K, M(*) = 1.09 M(circle dot), R(*) = 1.01 R(circle dot), solar metallicity, a lithium content of +1.45 dex, and an estimated age of between 0.12 and 3.15 Gyr. The lithium abundance of the star is consistent with its effective temperature, activity level, and age range derived from the stellar analysis. The density of the planet is extreme for its mass, implies that heavy elements are present with a mass of between about 140 and 300 M(circle plus).

Context. CoRoT is a pioneering space mission devoted to the analysis of stellar variability and the photometric detection of extrasolar planets. Aims. We present the list of planetary transit candidates detected in the first field observed by CoRoT, IRa01, the initial run toward the Galactic anticenter, which lasted for 60 days. Methods. We analysed 3898 sources in the coloured bands and 5974 in the monochromatic band. Instrumental noise and stellar variability were taken into account using detrending tools before applying various transit search algorithms. Results. Fifty sources were classified as planetary transit candidates and the most reliable 40 detections were declared targets for follow-up ground-based observations. Two of these targets have so far been confirmed as planets, CoRoT-1b and CoRoT-4b, for which a complete characterization and specific studies were performed.

This paper introduces the concept of religious information poverty in Australian state schools from an information science perspective. Information scientists have been theorising about the global information society for some time, along with its increased provision of vital information for the good of the world. Australian state schools see themselves as preparing children for effective participation in the information society, yet Australian children are currently suffering a religious illiteracy that undermines this goal. Some reasons and theories are offered to explain the existence of religious information poverty in state schools, and suggestions for professional stakeholders are offered for its alleviation.
