Hölderlin war ein leidenschaftlicher Wanderer, seine innige Liebe zur Natur hatte sicherlich einen großen Einfluss auf sein Denken. Also tun wir es ihm gleich: Wir wandern und lauschen gleichzeitig den Geschichten aus seinem Leben, seinen Gedichten, den Briefen seiner WeggefährtInnen, seiner Mutter, seiner Geliebten. Dies soll keine literaturwissenschaftliche Lehrstunde sein, sondern eine emotionale Annäherung an die vielschichtige Gedankenwelt eines Dichtergenies, welches es nie schaffte, im "profanen Alltagsleben" Fuß zu fassen.

Satire is a kind of preaching. Satire pervades Scripture. Satire treats the foibles of sinners with a less than perfect tenderness. But if a Christian employs satire today, he is almost immediately called to account for his "insensitive" and "unloving" behavior. Yet Scripture shows that the central point of some religious controversies is to give offense. When Christ was confronted with ecclesiastical obstinacy and other forms of arrogance, He showed us a godly pattern for giving offense.

Das biblische Gleichnis vom verlorenen Sohn (Lukas 15, 11-32) ist einer der populärsten Texte des Neuen Testaments. In neueren Übersetzungen wird es auch als "Gleichnis von den beiden Söhnen" bzw.

Der in die Welt gezogene und reumütig zurückgekehrte Sohn ist halt ein Sünder, der sich zu schämen hat. Was aber war wohl eigentlich seine Motivation, das Vaterhaus zu verlassen? Und was mag die Mutter gedacht, empfunden haben, von der im Gleichnis gar keine Rede ist?

According to the Holy Bible, Jesus is much more than a man - he is in fact the personification of God and he existed with the Heavenly Father before becoming a man, born of woman by conception of the Holy Spirit. The scriptures also state that the "Godhead" is eternal and consists of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. This further reveals the fact that Jesus pre-existed his birth as a human being on earth. He was in-fact "sent" by the Father according to the Holy Bible.
