Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Few Words About the Devil: And Other Biographical Sketches and Essays I have now no time for the full story of my army life, which, however, I may tell some day. Before I left the regiment I had won the esteem of most of the privates, and of some of the officers. I quitted the regiment with a very good character from the Colonel, but I am bound to add, that the Captain would not have coiicurred in this character had he had any voice in the matter. The lieutenant-colonel, C. P. Ainslie, earned an eternal right to grateful mention at my hands by his gentlemanly and considerate treatment. I can not say the same for my Captain, who did his best to send me to jail, and whom I have not yet quite forgiven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[...]Commissioner of Police, to issue the notices forbidding the people to meet in the Park. This was the first step in a course in which I have never flinched or wavered. In 1855 I undertook, with others, the publication of a series of papers, entitled "Half-Hours with Freethinkers," the late John Watts being one of my co-workers. I also by myself commenced the publication of my "Commentary on the Pentateuch," which has since been entirely re-written and now forms my "Bible: what it is."[...]".

Book excerpt: "God is a spirit. Jesus was led up of the Spirit to be tempted of the Devil; and it is also true that spirits are very likely to lead men to the Devil. Too intimate acquaintance with whisky toddy overnight is often followed by the delirium tremens and blue-devils on the morrow. We advise our readers to eschew alike spirituous and spiritual mixtures. They interfere sadly with sober thinking, and play the Devil with your brains." -- Charles Bradlaugh, "A Few Words About The Devil" "In a handsome volume before us, Charles Bradlaugh has 'a few words' to say 'about the Devil.' Mr. Bradlaugh has a right to his 'few words,' and the Devil will, we presume, at no very distant day, have a 'few words' to say to Mr. Bradlaugh, and will doubtless get the best of the argument." -Chicago Interior "This is rich and racy, and contains an Autobiography and fine portrait (of Mr. B., not of the Devil). The most sarcastic and humorous volume of the year....The interest in the only extant collection of his best writings will doubtless be great." -Publishers Weekly "Charles Bradlaugh, demagogue and communist, begins his book with a marvelously impudent autobiography, wherein he boasts of a lack of scholarship...he then goes on to discuss ignorantly matters which, of all others, require the most perfect erudition. He takes up the Bible, reads parts of it superficially, picks out such passages as suit his ends, puts a literal construction upon the most manifest figures of speech and poetry, blunders at every step, fails to understand the simplest idioms, insults common decency with his coarseness, and imagines he has irretrievably knocked into a cocked hat a question which for centuries has been a subject for argument among the most learned men. In short, he treats the greatest literary production the world has ever known precisely as an atheistic ploy-boy might." -The Overland Monthly "There is a considerable call for the writings of Charles Bradlaugh, and our former supply of a portion of his works was soon exhausted....The volume 'A Few Words About the Devil,' so much in demand, has been imported in sheets, and will soon be bound and ready for delivery." -Twentieth Century "His atheism is, after all, very much akin to the views put forth by Huxley and Tyndall and by Prof. John. W. Draper." - New York Graphic "His position herein is defined and defended in a spirit of reverence for the truth." -Chicago Evening Journal "To those, however, who can enjoy a vigorous presentation of the arguments against those beliefs termed orthodox, we commend Mr. Bradlaugh's essays." -Morning Democrat "We should insist, were we in any way connected with the government of theological schools, on their perusal of this work by the youth fitting under our charge for the duties and responsibilities of the pulpit. They will find Mr. Bradlaugh no common man, and they will be introduced by him to persons and thoughts which cannot fail to be of use in their professional studies." -New Haven Palladium "Displays much learning and research." -The Democrat "In fine, there is much that is noble about him." -The Advance "We have only to urge that the religious press should meet him squarely and discuss the positions taken upon their merits." -Chicago Evening Journal "Quite an interesting autobiography of Charles Bradlaugh forms the Introduction." -Sunday Journal

Download or read book Your God is Too Glorious written by Chad Bird and published by New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.

Download or read book The Devil s Dictionary written by Ambrose Bierce and published by Standard Ebooks. This book was released on 2021-03-16T22:46:04Z with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Dictionary, n: A malevolent literary device for cramping the growth of a language and making it hard and inelastic. This dictionary, however, is a most useful work.” Bierce’s groundbreaking Devil’s Dictionary had a complex publication history. Started in the mid-1800s as an irregular column in Californian newspapers under various titles, he gradually refined the new-at-the-time idea of an irreverent set of glossary-like definitions. The final name, as we see it titled in this work, did not appear until an 1881 column published in the periodical The San Francisco Illustrated Wasp. There were no publications of the complete glossary in the 1800s. Not until 1906 did a portion of Bierce’s collection get published by Doubleday, under the name The Cynic’s Word Book—the publisher not wanting to use the word “Devil” in the title, to the great disappointment of the author. The 1906 word book only went from A to L, however, and the remainder was never released under the compromised title. In 1911 the Devil’s Dictionary as we know it was published in complete form as part of Bierce’s collected works (volume 7 of 12), including the remainder of the definitions from M to Z. It has been republished a number of times, including more recent efforts where older definitions from his columns that never made it into the original book were included. Due to the complex nature of copyright, some of those found definitions have unclear public domain status and were not included. This edition of the book includes, however, a set of definitions attributed to his one-and-only “Demon’s Dictionary” column, including Bierce’s classic definition of A: “the first letter in every properly constructed alphabet.” Bierce enjoyed “quoting” his pseudonyms in his work. Most of the poetry, dramatic scenes and stories in this book attributed to others were self-authored and do not exist outside of this work. This includes the prolific Father Gassalasca Jape, whom he thanks in the preface—“jape” of course having the definition: “a practical joke.” This book is a product of its time and must be approached as such. Many of the definitions hold up well today, but some might be considered less palatable by modern readers. Regardless, the book’s humorous style is a valuable snapshot of American culture from past centuries. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
