Talk:Immanentize the eschaton

Other groups
Along with dispensationalist sects, I believe there are other Christian groups which seek to immanentize the eschaton, including groups with postmillennial leanings. I think perhaps that creating a heading for Dispensationalist Christianity suggests that their dispensational views are responsible for their desire to immanentize the eschaton, whereas the movement to immanentize the eschaton may come from other influences. I'm no expert, so I could be off-base. Madnova777 09:55, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I believe it is important to include the passage with regard to the Christian Libertarian use of the term to criticise the conservative support of certain zionist/millenialist movements within Christian Conservative movement and their member influence on U.S. Politics during the Bush Administration. I am reinserting it. Lets discuss the relevance before we remove it. Anthroproffs (talk) 00:50, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Roman Catholicism
I reverted the mentioning of Roman Cathlicism. See the AFD-debate linked above. Nobody was able to demonstrate the use of this term by Roman Catholicism. If you've found a source, please provide it. --Pjacobi 13:33, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

In this usenet post a Catholic (or at least mainstreme theologica) usage is claimed, but no solid source info provided. DES (talk) 19:18, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I've seen that discussion thread. But unsurprisingly it doesn't impress me much. It's not even USENET, but on a Discordian mailing list.
 * As noted in the AfD I've searched among other areas on vatican.org and in the Catholic Encyclopedia. Nothing there.

Spelling
Is there a reason "Immanentize" seems to be spelled incorrectly (cf. "imminent")? —Bkell (talk) 03:24, 5 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see, there is actually a different word "immanent". Hmm. —Bkell (talk) 16:06, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Addition of the word "Eschatus" the nature in time and space of a place. The eschatus can be damaged by noise, cursing/swearing and violence, indeed when combined with alcohol one often leads to another. Hence "Repairing the Eschatus" the use of sound or other methods to cleans a place. (bells, clapping, drums and incence) As in Ritual cleansing, Smudging, Feng Shui ect..The Willonian (talk) 21:27, 23 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Funny, but of another religion, another political model. No relevance for "Immanentize the Eschaton" I presume... Rursus dixit. ( m bork3 !) 07:39, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Ueeeh?
I guess he simply copycated the notion from classical Marxism and rephrased it to inrecognizability (sorry for the clumsy word, I simply translated "oigenkännlighet" from Swedish)... Rursus dixit. ( m bork3 !) 07:18, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

60's Paganism.
Quite simply, one would reference the Illuminism of Robert Anton Wilson, and recommend one read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immanentize_the_eschaton as regards, at the very least, the modern importance of this principle, and its prominence to late 20th and early 21st Century thinkers.

WF Buckley's phrase
The article states, " Conservative spokesman William F. Buckley popularized Voegelin's phrase as "Don't immanentize the eschaton!" ". I was a Buckley fan during that time, and I can attest that the phrase was, "Don't let THEM immanentize the Eschaton!". Just sayin'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.72.135.141 (talk) 13:35, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

POV Fork
This is a textbook case WP:POV fork and should eventually be merged into realized eschatology. That said, realized eschatology should probably be expanded and improved first, as this will quickly overwhelm it, leading to a undue weight problem. As a start, however, we could at least mention the numerous and widely divergent people who advocate realized eschatology, such as the emerging church or Christian perfection proponents. This article only discusses detractors. Daask (talk) 22:25, 13 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Sorry to disagree: Since the late 1990s, there have been dozens of books written by scholars and journalists on this subject, most of them affiliated with the Center for Millennial Studies at Boston University. The key authors available for citing are listed here: http://www.mille.org/people.html. Even more scholars now have arrived on the scene. The term is still used, but has been replaced by many authors as "Hastening the Apocalypse" when referring to Christian beliefs dating back many centuries.Chip.berlet (talk) 18:42, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

is this misspelled? shouldn't it be "imminentize"?
