Augustine and terror

Christianity Today has an interesting article in this month's edition. Well, there seems to be an unusual number of good ones, but the one I was thinking of was this one:

Theology for an Age of Terror: Augustine's words after the 'barbarian' destruction of Rome have a remarkably contemporary ring by Timothy George.

He compares City of God with the 9/11 attacks. A very nice analogy, would that the church would have responded as well as Augustine did :(

If you don't normally read CT, this one might be worth a trip to the library for. There are some other interesting ones.

Scot McKnight interacts with the article on Calvinism in a post entitled Why I Kissed Calvinism Good-bye. Very good, as usual.
