Laurie discusses DC Schindler’s views on the limitations of liberal religious toleration and his argument for a better toleration that coincides with increased influence or even establishment of the Catholic Church. This subject allows Laurie to contrast Schindler’s views with those of Christian anarchists and anti-empire theologians, and to explore whether or not Schindler’s views are, in fact, utopian, or at least unconsciously still influenced by Enlightenment thinking.

Laurie focuses on chapter 3 of DC Schindler’s The Politics of the Real. In this chapter, Schindler argues that liberal structures cannot create real community, so even communitarian proposals for doing so fall short. Schindler also begins to hint at what he thinks would do so better.

Laurie discusses Chapters 1 and 2 of DC Schindler’s The Politics of the Real: The Church Between Liberalism and Integralism. In this section, she concentrates on what Schindler thinks is the fallout of liberalism, what we’ve gained during the rise of liberalism, why “Nature’s God” is a generic or empty God, and why the American founding was not a Christian event.

Laurie discusses some of DC Schindler’s main themes in his introduction and first chapter in The Politics of the Real: The Church Between Liberalism and Integralism. Among the arguments Schindler makes that are challenging to contemporary sensibilities: that the combination of Christianity with Roman Institutions was not a mistake but somehow an unfolding of Christianity’s presence in the world, and that Liberalism is a “dis-incarnation” that strikes at the root of Christianity itself and is inherently atheistic.

Get ready for a series on DC Schindler’s The Politics of the Real: The Church Between Liberalism and Integralism. This video introduces Schindler as a scholar. I discuss why I want to read his book, and something of the larger context of which it is a part. What do we make of a book written primarily for a Catholic audience, and an informed one at that? How do we approach it–and why should we do so? Dustbowl Diatribes podcast can be found on iTunes, Google Podcasts, and Audible.
