Anthropocentric (album)
''Anthropocentric'' is the fifth studio album by German metal band The Ocean Collective. It is the second album in a 2 album series, following ''Heliocentric''. ''Anthropocentric'' continues the critique of Christianity as in its companion album ''Heliocentric''. The album was released in North America on November 9, 2010.
==Theme==
Like its companion ''Heliocentric'', Anthropocentric focuses on critique of Fundamentalist Christianity and Creationism. It "challenges the views of creationists and other modern fundamentalists who still believe that the earth is at the center of the universe and no more than 5,000 years old." The band comments on the theme of the album: "As far as the concepts behind ''Anthropocentric'' are concerned, the focus is on man and his place in the universe: at the center, as many fundamental Christians still claim today, or more likely a dust particle in its periphery. All lyrics are circling around this question.'' Anthropocentric'' will continue the critique of christianity, inspired by the questions that Dostoyevsky asked and some of the answers that Friedrich Nietzsche and Richard Dawkins gave." At the base of the album are three songs with the titles ''"The Grand Inquisitor I, II and III"''. These songs have been inspired by the chapter of the same title in Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novel The Brothers Karamazov: a conversation between the brothers Ivan, an atheist, and Alyoscha, a monk. Ivan tells Alyoscha the story of a Second Coming of Christ in 16th century Sevilla. According to this parable, Jesus is arrested by the Catholic inquisition. The grand inquisitor who interrogates Jesus casts a new light on the legend of the temptation of Christ: he reproaches Jesus with having betrayed humanity and having deprived man of salvation by offering him freedom. The conversation between Ivan and Alyoscha mirrors, to some degree, the conversation between the grand inquisitor and Christ and raises more questions than it answers.
