Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sun Cults versus Thunder Cults-Punic Origins of Druidism and Christianity" is a report of cultural globalization research conducted with abductive semiotic, semantic, and etymologic methods. This treatise proves that Druidism and Christianity were established by sun-worshipping Punic colonizers of Europe. Assyrian-Egyptian-Philistine-Phoenician Punic sun cults established Druidism and Christianity to quell Greek-Roman-Babylonian-Jewish thunder cults. Thunder cults won this struggle with power of Rome. Druidism amalgamated into Christianity and disappeared; Sun cult Christianity amalgamated into thunder cult Judaism and disappeared. Thus sun theology surrendered and amalgamated into thunder theology, and Christianity as thunder cult-as we know it-became forged.

Download or read book A Study of Siouan Cults written by James Owen Dorsey and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2018-04-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cult, as used in this book, means a system of religious belief and worship, especially the rites and ceremonies employed in such worship. The present book treats of the cults of a few of the Siouan tribes—that is, with two exceptions, of such tribes as have been visited by the author. "Siouan" is a term originated by the Bureau of Ethnology. It is derived from "Sioux," the popular name for those Indians who call themselves "Dakota" or "Lakota," the latter being the Teton appellation. "Siouan" is used as an adjective, but, unlike its primitive, it refers not only to the Dakota tribes, but also to the entire linguistic stock or family. The Siouan family includes the Dakota, Assiniboin, Omaha, Ponka, Osage, Kansa, Kwapa, Iowa, Oto, Missouri, Winnebago, Mandan, Hidatsa, Crow, Tutelo, Biloxi, Catawba, and other Indians.

Download or read book Climate Change And The Cargo Cult written by Chris Cunningham and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate Change is a major threat to our way of life, and requires urgent political action to remedy its many threats, but is it a symptom rather than the disease? This book argues that the problem lies deep in our commitment to the quest for ever increasing economic growth. At some time in the 1970s the Western World passed a point of economic satiety beyond which further economic growth was of little benefit, and indeed was counter-productive, to living the good life. We must therefore seek a better understanding of our environment and of what constitutes genuine wealth. Life without the frenetic economic activity and culture of selfish possession that drives the modern economy can indeed be more humane, more pleasant and more meaningful than what we have today , but to reach it will require a major re-evaluation of what is important in business, politics and culture.

Book excerpt: “Of over thirty books I have read on this topic, Brian Sussman has the best understanding of what the climate movement is all about…Climate Cult is a must-read.” —Dr. Neil Frank, Former Director, National Hurricane Center The climate change agenda has nothing to do with a pristine environment. Instead, it’s a devious scheme designed to upend America’s foundational rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Originally conceived by early disciples of Marx, this scheme relies on ecological crises—both real and imagined—to frighten the masses into cult-like submission as it seeks to create a brave new world. Advanced by the United Nations, promoted by the World Economic Forum, practiced at the federal and state level, embraced by the educational system, and sold by media mouthpieces, the climate change agenda has invaded nearly every aspect of society, threatening to dismantle American liberty and advance a total reset of the world’s economy. In Climate Cult, Brian Sussman presents impeccable research and persuasive facts that will embolden you to take a stand against this dangerous charade.

Download or read book The Cult of the Mother of God in Byzantium written by Leslie Brubaker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, on the cult of the Theotokos (Virgin Mary) in Byzantium, focuses on textual and historical aspects of the subject, thus complementing previous work which has centred more on the cult of images of the Mother of God. The papers presented here, by an international team of scholars, consider the development and transformation of the cult from approximately the fourth through the twelfth centuries. The volume opens with discussion of the origins of the cult, and its Near Eastern manifestations, including the archaeological site of the Kathisma church in Palestine, which represents the earliest Marian shrine in the Holy Land, and Syriac poetic treatment of the Virgin. The principal focus, however, is on the 8th and 9th centuries in Byzantium, as a critical period when Christian attitudes toward the Virgin and her veneration were transformed. The book re-examines the relationship between icons, relics and the Virgin, asking whether increasing devotion to these holy objects or figures was related in any way. Some contributions consider the location of relics and later, icons, in Constantinople and other centres of Marian devotion; others explore gender issues, such as the significance of the Virgin's feminine qualities, and whether women and men identified with her equally as a holy figure. The aim of this volume is to build on recent work on the cult of the Virgin Mary in Byzantium and to explore areas that have not yet been studied. The rationale is critical and historical, using literary, artistic, and archaeological sources to evaluate her role in the development of the Byzantine understanding of the ways in which God interacts with creation by means of icons, relics, and the Theotokos.
