This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of American culture and public life. Legendary as a speaker-he memorized his speeches and could talk for hours without notes-and as a proponent of freethought, Ingersoll is an American original whose words still ring with truth and power today. His most important works are gathered in this 12-volume collected edition, first published posthumously in 1901. Volume XII features a series of miscellaneous works: [ essays on modern thinkers, the brain and the Bible, agnosticism, and more [ a variety of short dinner speeches and addresses [ "The Religion of Abraham Lincoln" [ thoughts on superstition, liberty, joy, and youth and age [ "The Lowest Phase of Religion" [ Ingersoll's letters [ and more Volume XII also includes the complete index for the full 12-volume set.

Book excerpt: There was a time when a falsehood, fulminated from the pulpit, smote like a sword; but, the supply having greatly exceeded the demand, clerical misrepresentation has at last become almost an innocent amusement. Remembering that only a few years ago men, women, and even children, were imprisoned, tortured and burned, for having expressed in an exceedingly mild and gentle way, the ideas entertained by me, I congratulate myself that calumny is now the pulpit's last resort. The old instruments of torture are kept only to gratify curiosity; the chains are rusting away, and the demolition of time has allowed even the dungeons of the Inquisition to be visited by light. The church, impotent and malicious, regrets, not the abuse, but the loss of her power, and seeks to hold by falsehood what she gained by cruelty and force, by fire and fear. Christianity cannot live in peace with any other form of faith. If that religion be true, there is but one savior, one inspired book, and but one little narrow grass-grown path that leads to heaven. Such a religion is necessarily uncompromising, unreasoning, aggressive and insolent. Christianity has held all other creeds and forms in infinite contempt, divided the world into enemies and friends, and verified the awful declaration of its founder -- a declaration that wet with blood the sword he came to bring, and made the horizon of a thousand years lurid with the fagots' flames.....Robert Green Ingersoll
Download or read book Is Hitler In Heaven written by Mike Cullison and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-03-30 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitler believed in God, and the Bible says that if you believe in God, then you go to Heaven. So according to the Bible, Hitler is in Heaven. Hitler was a deeply religious and God fearing man, he believed in God, believed that Jesus Christ was the son of God, so how could Hitler not be in Heaven? The Bible doesn't say you go to hell if you kill 50 million people. God didn't create man, man created God, and Christianity was invented. The Bible is wrong, God is not an all powerful being that created the universe with the snap of his fingers, Jesus is not the son of God, and Santa Clause is not real. The human race needs to start using their brains and ask the question why. Too many people in this world listen to anything anyone tells them. Technology is the only true religion and the path to a brighter future. This book explores the questions of humanity, religion, science, evolution, and the Universe.

Download or read book Colour Coded written by Constance Backhouse and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1999-11-20 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically Canadians have considered themselves to be more or less free of racial prejudice. Although this conception has been challenged in recent years, it has not been completely dispelled. In Colour-Coded, Constance Backhouse illustrates the tenacious hold that white supremacy had on our legal system in the first half of this century, and underscores the damaging legacy of inequality that continues today. Backhouse presents detailed narratives of six court cases, each giving evidence of blatant racism created and enforced through law. The cases focus on Aboriginal, Inuit, Chinese-Canadian, and African-Canadian individuals, taking us from the criminal prosecution of traditional Aboriginal dance to the trial of members of the 'Ku Klux Klan of Kanada.' From thousands of possibilities, Backhouse has selected studies that constitute central moments in the legal history of race in Canada. Her selection also considers a wide range of legal forums, including administrative rulings by municipal councils, criminal trials before police magistrates, and criminal and civil cases heard by the highest courts in the provinces and by the Supreme Court of Canada. The extensive and detailed documentation presented here leaves no doubt that the Canadian legal system played a dominant role in creating and preserving racial discrimination. A central message of this book is that racism is deeply embedded in Canadian history despite Canada's reputation as a raceless society.

Book excerpt: For the most part we inherit our opinions. We are the heirs of habitsand mental customs. Our beliefs, like the fashion of our garments, depend on where we were born. We are moulded and fashioned by oursurroundings. Environment is a sculptor---a painter. If we had been born in Constantinople, the most of us would have said: "There is no God but Allah, and Mohammed is his prophet." If our parentshad lived on the banks of the Ganges, we would have been worshipers ofSiva, longing for the heaven of Nirvana. As a rule, children love their parents, believe what they teach, andtake great pride in saying that the religion of mother is good enoughfor them. Most people love peace. They do not like to differ with their neighbors.They like company. They are social. They enjoy traveling on the highwaywith the multitude. They hate to walk alone. (...) Belief is not subject to the will. Men think as they must. Children donot, and cannot, believe exactly as they were taught. They are notexactly like their parents. They differ in temperament, in experience, in capacity, in surroundings. And so there is a continual, though almostimperceptible change. There is development, conscious and unconsciousgrowth, and by comparing long periods of time we find that the old hasbeen almost abandoned, almost lost in the new. Men cannot remainstationary. The mind cannot be securely anchored. If we do not advance, we go backward. If we do not grow, we decay. If we do not develop, weshrink and shrivel. - Taken from "Why Am I An Agnostic" written by Robert Green Ingersoll

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are We the Next Endangered Species? unravels the complex web of historical events, misinformation, and the ominous convergence of bioweapons and eugenics In this thought-provoking new book, Dr. Fleming challenges us to navigate the murky waters of history, exposing parallel programs developed over the last 170 years in the United States. This riveting exploration unearths ancient civilizations that embraced slavery, sterilization, and eugenics, drawing chilling parallels to our present reality. Dr. Fleming confronts the uncomfortable truth: are we repeating the mistakes of the past while expecting different outcomes? Are we destined to replicate the errors that led to the rise of powerful individuals and organizations seeking ultimate control over others? Key revelations include the stealthy usurpation of power in the United States since the 1850s, the nation's pivotal role in developing biological and chemical weapons, and its shocking collaboration with Nazi scientists, doctors, and intelligence officers. Dr. Fleming unveils the shadowy world of covert operations, the establishment of the military-industrial complex, and the surrender of medical control to the federal government. Readers will discover the intricate pathways of biowarfare and eugenics converging with the emergence of COVID. They will learn about the gain-of-function bioweapons responsible for the pandemic and the parallel development of eugenic genetic vaccines. Fleming reveals the control wielded by the military-industrial complex and world leaders over your life, movement, property, and freedoms. This book is not just an exploration of the past or a revelation of how those in power are on the brink of realizing their ultimate control, it's a call to action. It doesn't just raise awareness—it empowers readers to understand, question, and take decisive action to halt the ominous path we're on. In a world where truth is elusive and power is coveted, this book is a beacon of knowledge, urging you to discover what you can do to stop the impending threats to our existence. The future hangs in the balance and Are We the Next Endangered Species? provides the roadmap to safeguard it.
