Why Is David Ananda Hart Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, David Ananda Hart is a British radical theologian, Anglican priest and a practicing Hindu. Career Educated at Keble College, Oxford and Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York, with a doctorate in Philosophy of Religion from the University of Derby, Hart is a prominent member of a group of non-realist theologians inspired by the work of Don Cupitt. In the 1990s Hart worked as a chaplin at Loughborough University in the midlands. In 2006 Hart was the subject of some controversy after newspapers in India and the UK reported that he had converted to Hinduism, changing his middle name from Alan to Ananda, but without renouncing Christianity or his priestly orders. Hart is currently India Secretary of the World Congress of Faiths. He is also a Fellow of the Jesus Seminar and Samvada . His proposed book 'An Introduction to Hinduism' was intended to examine the breadth of the Hindu faith as he discovered it living in India and show how he regards his position as a Hindu believer as entirely compatible with being an Anglican priest in good standing with his diocesan bishop back in England.
