Download or read book The Call the Fall of Humankind written by Ligondé and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Call is the archetype of 'the Iliad by Homer'; except, here, Ligonde dares go where no other mind has gone before. As has said Stephen Hawking in his book 'a brief history of time' The Church dislikes the idea of anyone going before or beyond the 'big bang' creation especially astrophysicists. Since, humans were limping before, then, Ligonde trek with them, back and forth in space/time, left them to proceed into 'the Quantum slipstream' beyond the Heavens near 'The Continuum' in this journey to see God! Unlike 'The Iliad' and 'The Inferno', 'The Call by Ligonde' is not fixated in one specific space/time or location on this blue, beautiful, bountiful planet Earth we dwell on; Instead, 'The Call' made them, both: "space" and "time", its playground; in them, it goes, 'back and forth', around! Unlike 'the Iliad and the Inferno', 'The Call' is overarching, overbearing in the Multiverses's escathological fate to awaken humankind about our destitute state by these entities who supposed to care for us, ad inceptio! Two apathetic posterities, two sides stand erect, posture for: Hegemony, world domination; whereas, one is orderly, conciliatory, revelatory and with respect; while the other is chaotic, deceitful, full of concealment and with disrespect, as if everything is fined. When, in the contrary, by the latter, we are being hijacked, taken hostages for more over (6,000) six thousands years of foolished history of disobedience and futile rebellion! Finally, after centuries of literary and religious dominance in the Western civilisation, both: 'The Iliad by Homer' and 'The Inferno by Dante' are pushed off the book-shelves awe-strikingly in 'The Call by Ligonde' for Humankind to get ready for 'the Messianic Era'. Open 'The Call', this edda in the eddy, with glee. You'll bite more than you could shew! Ligonde ID # Book ID #

Download or read book Hard Questions Real Answers written by William Lane Craig and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2003-10-17 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why doesn't God answer my prayers? If God is so powerful, why does evil exist? And if He is so good, why do we suffer? Nonbelievers, and even Christians, are often troubled by questions about suffering, doubt, failure, and unanswered prayer. Yet careful, compassionate answers are hard to find, in part because evangelicals have not taken the life of the mind seriously enough. The intellectual currents of our day are just too strong for simplistic responses. In Hard Questions, Real Answers, William Lane Craig doesn't offer trite phrases or pat answers-he offers honest insights gained from a life of study and ministry. Readers in the midst of doubt and confusion will find real answers to these perplexing questions and learn to stand on the only sure foundation for hope-God Himself. This expanded new edition includes chapters on abortion and homosexuality to help readers know how to think about these volatile social issues.

Download or read book Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood written by John Bergsma and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-29 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there anything in the New Testament about the need for priests in the Church? Many Protestants would argue no. And if you point out that there is a priesthood in the Old Testament, they are likely to say it was a feature of the Old Covenant that was undone by Christ. How should a Catholic respond? In Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood, biblical scholar John Bergsma convinces readers that Jesus did, in fact, intend for a ministerial priesthood to be a key feature of the New Covenant. Bergsma shows how the priesthood is a major thread holding together the biblical story line—beginning with Adam’s loss of the gift of priesthood in the Fall and the long process of restoring his descendants to a priestly status over the centuries, culminating with Christ. With chapter summaries and discussion questions included, Jesus and the Old Testament Roots of the Priesthood can readily be adapted into a four-part study for personal or small group use.

Download or read book Humankind written by Rutger Bregman and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2020-06-02 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The “lively” (The New Yorker), “convincing” (Forbes), and “riveting pick-me-up we all need right now” (People) that proves humanity thrives in a crisis and that our innate kindness and cooperation have been the greatest factors in our long-term success as a species. If there is one belief that has united the left and the right, psychologists and philosophers, ancient thinkers and modern ones, it is the tacit assumption that humans are bad. It's a notion that drives newspaper headlines and guides the laws that shape our lives. From Machiavelli to Hobbes, Freud to Pinker, the roots of this belief have sunk deep into Western thought. Human beings, we're taught, are by nature selfish and governed primarily by self-interest. But what if it isn't true? International bestseller Rutger Bregman provides new perspective on the past 200,000 years of human history, setting out to prove that we are hardwired for kindness, geared toward cooperation rather than competition, and more inclined to trust rather than distrust one another. In fact this instinct has a firm evolutionary basis going back to the beginning of Homo sapiens. From the real-life Lord of the Flies to the solidarity in the aftermath of the Blitz, the hidden flaws in the Stanford prison experiment to the true story of twin brothers on opposite sides who helped Mandela end apartheid, Bregman shows us that believing in human generosity and collaboration isn't merely optimistic—it's realistic. Moreover, it has huge implications for how society functions. When we think the worst of people, it brings out the worst in our politics and economics. But if we believe in the reality of humanity's kindness and altruism, it will form the foundation for achieving true change in society, a case that Bregman makes convincingly with his signature wit, refreshing frankness, and memorable storytelling.

Download or read book The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve written by Stephen Greenblatt and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected as a book of the year 2017 by The Times and Sunday Times What is it about Adam and Eve’s story that fascinates us? What does it tell us about how our species lives, dies, works or has sex? The mythic tale of Adam and Eve has shaped conceptions of human origins and destiny for centuries. Stemming from a few verses in an ancient book, it became not just the foundation of three major world faiths, but has evolved through art, philosophy and science to serve as the mirror in which we seem to glimpse the whole, long history of our fears and desires. In a quest that begins at the dawn of time, Stephen Greenblatt takes us from ancient Babylonia to the forests of east Africa. We meet evolutionary biologists and fossilised ancestors; we grapple with morality and marriage in Milton’s Paradise Lost; and we decide if the Fall is the unvarnished truth or fictional allegory.

Download or read book Humankind written by Timothy Morton and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A radical call for solidarity between humans and non-humans What is it that makes humans human? As science and technology challenge the boundaries between life and non-life, between organic and inorganic, this ancient question is more timely than ever. Acclaimed object-oriented philosopher Timothy Morton invites us to consider this philosophical issue as eminently political. In our relationship with nonhumans, we decide the fate of our humanity. Becoming human, claims Morton, actually means creating a network of kindness and solidarity with nonhuman beings, in the name of a broader understanding of reality that both includes and overcomes the notion of species. Negotiating the politics of humanity is the first crucial step in reclaiming the upper scales of ecological coexistence and resisting corporations like Monsanto and the technophilic billionaires who would rob us of our kinship with people beyond our species.

Download or read book Last Call Humanity Hanging From A Cross Of Iron And Our Escape To Another Planet written by Daniel R Altschuler and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tries to look at human thought and action from a scientific perspective, and in the process, acquaints the reader with essential concepts about science and its history. It takes a broad look at our present troubles without overlooking some crucial historical, religious, and political causes but places science at the center stage.The author applies what he has learned throughout his career to go beyond science. After an introduction setting the scene and a review of the 'scientific temper' and the inexcusable ignorance of science by some leaders and many followers, the author turns his sharp vision to look at other issues. The most significant challenges are critical and global: climate change caused by our activities, stockpiles of nuclear weapons that are a constant threat, population growth, and increasing inequality at all levels. These problems do have a profound ethical character and threaten to end forever with our misery, producing a 'catastrophic convergence'.Written with rigor for all readers, with many references and infused with relevant quotations, the author's message is clear: we need to change our ways drastically and urgently, now or never. But he offers not much in terms of a solution, something done by many authors to sweeten the pill, because as he argues, beyond lofty declarations, there is no real solution as the clock runs down, leading to his dystopian view of the future.
