Download or read book The Bumper Book of Blasphemy written by Mann Drummond and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bumper Book of Blasphemy looks at all the bloated claims religions make in favour of gods, goddesses, spirits and other holy, magical creatures, and pokes them until they evaporate in the bright light of rational analysis. Irreverent, vulgar, merciless and laugh-out-loud funny, this book drags deities, souls and sins, post-death theme parks, miracles and all the other supernatural woo-woo out into the open. It examines the devious and illogical drivel preached about supernatural spirits, their magical, universe-juggling powers, and their bizarre fascination with our genitals and what we do with them. Here, the sheer silliness of utterances by worshippers, their peculiar beliefs, their claims to moral superiority, their opinions on atheists; and the privilege they expect religion to enjoy in this life, are hauled behind the barn and kicked repeatedly. If you're not sure that's your cup of tea, here's a trigger warning: Don't read this book unless you possess the intellectual and emotional grit to deal with reasoning or opinion you don't agree with or like. But do make sure you buy it first. Then, if you have a religious gland in your body, just put it down. You won't survive the tonnage of reason, argument and evidence, all enriched by quotations from some of the smartest people around. But if you're a sceptic, you'll love it. Adult ideas and language are rampant throughout, along with jokes, quotations, facts and uncompromising opinions. Buy it. Read it. Send a copy to your friends. If you do, celebrate: there'll soon be one more of us, and one less of them. Hey, send one to your enemies too. It's not like you're going to go to hell for it.
Download or read book The Blasphemy Tour written by Jass Richards and published by XinXii. This book was released on 2018-04-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Road Trip Dialogues, the prequel, Rev and Dylan are charged with blasphemy for adding “‘Blessed are they that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stone.’ Psalms 137:9” to a Right-to-Life billboard just outside Algonquin Park. As a result of a well-publicized court trial, the American Atheist Consortium offers an all-expenses-paid speaking tour of American Bible Colleges. Guess what happens. The Blasphemy Tour -- where philosophy meets stand-up. “If I were Siskel and Ebert I would give this book Two Thumbs Way Up. Yes, it is blasphemy toward organized religion, but it gives you tons of Bible verses to back up its premises. And besides, it’s pure entertainment. There’s a prequel which I recommend you read first: The Road Trip Dialogues. I only hope there will be a third book.” L. K. Killian "Jass Richards has done it again. As I tell anyone who wants to listen, Jass is a comedy genius, she writes the funniest books and always writes the most believable unbelievable characters and scenes ... It’s both funny and made me think at the same time. ... Overall, I highly recommend anything by Jass, especially this one book, which is full of comedy gold and food for thought.” " May Arend, Brazilian Book Worm “Irreverent. Definitely irreverent.” Anon

Raised in a wealthy family with ties to the ruler of Galilee, she is rebellious and ambitious, with a brilliant mind and a daring spirit. She engages in furtive scholarly pursuits and writes narratives about neglected and silenced women. Ana is expected to marry an older widower, a prospect that horrifies her. An encounter with eighteen-year-old Jesus changes everything. Their marriage evolves with love and conflict, humor and pathos in Nazareth, where Ana makes a home with Jesus, his brothers, and their mother, Mary. Ana's pent-up longings intensify amid the turbulent resistance to Rome's occupation of Israel, partially led by her brother, Judas. She is sustained by her fearless aunt Yaltha, who harbors a compelling secret. When Ana commits a brazen act that puts her in peril, she flees to Alexandria, where startling revelations and greater dangers unfold, and she finds refuge in unexpected surroundings. Ana determines her fate during a stunning convergence of events considered among the most impactful in human history. Grounded in meticulous research and written with a reverential approach to Jesus's life that focuses on his humanity, The Book of Longings is an inspiring, unforgettable account of one woman's bold struggle to realize the passion and potential inside her, while living in a time, place and culture devised to silence her. It is a triumph of storytelling both timely and timeless, from a masterful writer at the height of her powers.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Ephemera written by Michael Twyman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The joy of finding an old box in the attic filled with postcards, invitations, theater programs, laundry lists, and pay stubs is discovering the stories hidden within them. The paper trails of our lives -- or ephemera -- may hold sentimental value, reminding us of great grandparents. They chronicle social history. They can be valuable as collectibles or antiques. But the greatest pleasure is that these ordinary documents can reconstruct with uncanny immediacy the drama of day-to-day life. The Encyclopedia of Ephemera is the first work of its kind, providing an unparalleled sourcebook with over 400 entries that cover all aspects of everyday documents and artifacts, from bookmarks to birth certificates to lighthouse dues papers. Continuing a tradition that started in the Victorian era, when disposable paper items such as trade cards, die-cuts and greeting cards were accumulated to paste into scrap books, expert Maurice Rickards has compiled an enormous range of paper collectibles from the obscure to the commonplace. His artifacts come from around the world and include such throw-away items as cigarette packs and crate labels as well as the ubiquitous faxes, parking tickets, and phone cards of daily life. As this major new reference shows, simple slips of paper can speak volumes about status, taste, customs, and taboos, revealing the very roots of popular culture.
