Leonardo Boff

The Earth belongs to everyone

By LEONARDO BOFF: We Westerners are heirs to a linear thought that constantly works with the principle of identity and contradiction, belatedly enriched by dialectical thought.

The Prophet Kindness

By LEONARDO BOFF: Under the word “Kindness” lies what is most refined and noble in human beings, the kindness that is so absent and yet so necessary in the bad times we live in.

Globalization cannot be stopped

By LEONARDO BOFF: Migrant peoples are making their way back. They are meeting in one place: on planet Earth, understood as their common homeland and motherland.

The beginning of the iron age

By LEONARDO BOFF: What Donald Trump has done, pompously, is a declaration of war against the Earth and against humanity

An Ecotheology of Mother Earth

By LEONARDO BOFF: The question is not: what future does Christianity or our civilization have, but what future does the living Earth have?

What is the longest trip?

By LEONARDO BOFF: Desire is not just any impulse. It is an inner fire that energizes and mobilizes all psychic life.

The time and eternity of the human being

By LEONARDO BOFF: The meaning of life in time is to live, simply to live, even in the most humble condition. Living is a kind of celebration of existing and of having escaped from nothingness.

Christmas – we will be judged by a child

By LEONARDO BOFF: May they be present in our minds this Christmas, those in the Gaza Strip, hungry and thirsty, not knowing how to hide from the bombs that destroy everything.

Is there still room for hope?

By LEONARDO BOFF: Visible life, as we know it, is at risk of disappearing, similar to the great decimations of the past

The emergence of natural spirituality

By LEONARDO BOFF: We capture the emergence of the spiritual world, of the so-called natural spirituality, and we verify its pressing relevance in the face of the many crises that plague all of humanity.

Why have we reached the current dangerous situation?

By LEONARDO BOFF: If we follow this project of civilization, based on power-domination, which is now globalized, we will inevitably encounter an ecological-social tragedy to the point of making planet Earth uninhabitable.

Against Donald Trump’s “Mega”

By LEONARDO BOFF: The real danger of future US President Donald Trump's mantra: “Make America Great Again” (MEGA) or the aphorism “America first”, but which is thought of as: “America only”

My homeland is the Earth — the promising utopia

By LEONARDO BOFF: No society, anthropologists and sociologists assure us, lives without having a utopia, that is, a strong idea, an inspiring dream that gives meaning to people's lives, to society and to history.

Messages from Earth

By LEONARDO BOFF: The modern way of seeing the Earth has transformed scientific knowledge into a technical operation, a process of domination of all spheres of nature and life.
