Book excerpt: Book Four in the Unapologetic Series. “Death is not the greatest loss of life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.” —Norman Cousins Having a taste of paradise, only to have it immediately snatched from your grasp, was without a doubt the most excruciating experience one could have the misfortune of coming across. River Ellis couldn’t fathom how things had spiraled out of control. Like a domino effect, once it was put into motion, it was unstoppable. One monumental ache after the other. Did he have enough strength to be the pillar of hope? Or would he cower from life’s punishing blows, tormenting him until he was utterly and hopelessly crippled? But above all, could he protect the woman he’d vowed to spend the rest of his life with?

Book excerpt: Like the sands of time, it shifts, it's mercurial … unpredictable. I grew up stern, detached, like a person looking through glass, observing. But everything had come to the forefront, and nothing could ever prepare me for what the next chapter entailed. I could no longer be the observer but would become the one being observed. He ceaselessly watched, clutching me like a disease. His poison gradually possessed me until I was fully submerged under his twisted spell. The dark side of love—his perverse love. I was out for blood. Anyone would do.

Download or read book Unapologetic written by John W. Loftus and published by Pitchstone Publishing (US&CA). This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as intelligent design is not a legitimate branch of biology in public educational institutions, nor should the philosophy of religion be a legitimate branch of philosophy. So argues acclaimed author John W. Loftus in this forceful takedown of the very discipline in which he was trained. In his call for ending the philosophy of religion, he argues that, as it is presently being practiced, the main reason the discipline exists is to serve the faith claims of Christianity. Most of philosophy of religion has become little more than an effort to defend and rationalize preexisting Christian beliefs. If subjects such as biology, chemistry, physics, and geology are all taught without reference to faith-based supernatural forces as explanations, faith-based teachings should not be acceptable in this discipline either. While the book offers a fascinating study of the fallacies and flaws on which one whole field of study rests, it speaks to something much larger in the ongoing culture wars. By highlighting the stark differences between faith-based reasoning and evidence-based reasoning, Loftus presents vital arguments and lessons about the importance of critical thinking not only in all aspects of study but also in life. His conclusions and recommendations thus resonate far beyond the ivory towers and ivy-covered walls of academic institutions.
