Roundup: Melancholia, science and belief, black theology, anti-gambling

What role does science play in what we believe and in how we understand belief?
The new black theology
The new theology reminds us that it was a mistake to call black theology “black theology” in the first place. Consistency at least would have required that European theology equally bear the burden of qualifications (“colonising theology”).
