Download or read book The Goddess Dictionary of Words and Phrases written by Lochlainn Seabrook and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning Tennessee author and Southern historian Lochlainn Seabrook s The Goddess Dictionary of Words and Phrases is an educational compendium of vital information regarding the universal deity known around the world for thousands of years as Goddess. As such, this work focuses specifically on various androcentric or patriarchal terms, expressions, and maxims, from ancient to modern times. Seabrook has taken these and feminized (or emasculated) them, a process that has created a new core vocabulary of feministic Goddess-oriented words and phrases. Many of his inventions are what could rightfully be called new old words and phrases. That is, he has taken the God-based wording of our modern male-dominant vocabulary and simply returned it to its original prehistoric feminine form. After the Patriarchal Takeover (which began c. 4300 BCE), misogynistic priests masculinized them, suppressing the original feminine versions. The Goddess Dictionary of Words and Phrases allows these ancient silenced expressions, dedicated to the Great Mother (known in Syria as Mari, in Greece as Myrrha, in ancient Rome as Maria, in early Egypt as Meri, in Babylonia as Marratu, in Israel as Marah, in India as Kel-Mari, in Buddhism as Mara, in Scandinavia as Maerin, in the British Isles as Maid Marian, and in Christianity as Mary) to be brought back to life. This is an important reference book for anyone interested in feminine spirituality and the prehistoric Matriarchate. Lochlainn Seabrook is the winner of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, awarded by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Known as the American Robert Graves after his celebrated British cousin, Seabrook is a seventh-generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage, the sixth great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, the twenty-first great-grandson of King Edward I, the fortieth great-grandson of British Queen Boudicca, and the author of over thirty popular books. A specialist in thealogy (Goddess-oriented religion), his works include: Britannia Rules: Goddess-Worship in Ancient Anglo-Celtic Society; Christmas Before Christianity: How the Birthday of the Sun Became the Birthday of the Son; The Book of Kelle: An Introduction to Goddess-Worship and the Great Celtic Mother-Goddess Kelle; The Quotable Jefferson Davis; The Quotable Robert E.

Download or read book The Struggle to Define God written by Robert A. Butterfield and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-04-19 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book about religious struggle studies four texts from postexilic Judah and applies them first to Judah and then, importantly, to modern America. Two of these texts--the books of Jonah and Job--speak out in favor of the theology of grace and against the theology of retribution, as advocated by the Jerusalem hardliners. This struggle to define God continues even today. Despite the biblical evidence--especially the example of Jesus--many Americans still believe in the God of retribution. Two other texts--the book of Ruth and the story of Rahab--demonstrate that if people reject xenophobia/nativism and misogyny, the entire community is blessed. Since xenophobia/nativism and misogyny are rampant in modern America, this message is rather timely. The last chapter argues that it is the mission of both synagogues and churches to define God correctly and then to help people overcome their resentment and prejudices and become partners with God, but that many predominantly white churches have failed in their mission, as evidenced by the fact that so many of their members voted for Donald Trump.
