Download or read book How Lucifer Hijacked Humanity s Eternal Destiny written by Christine Sihag and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Lucifer Hijacked Humanity’s Eternal Destiny is a whimsical poetic tale that tackles some of humanity’s most enduring enigmas such as the unnerving inevitability of death, as the beginning of one’s own eternal destiny—and the disturbing existence of evil in the world. But what might eternity be, if life is the only testing ground that precedes forever? And why has humankind been assigned such a wonderous, but grave responsibility—as everyone contemplates eternity with concepts of heaven, hell—and even nothingness? These ageless ideas continue to cause everyone to hope for the very best in terms of an afterlife for themselves, and for their loved ones. Eternity remains as relevant a consideration now as it was in ancient times when the greatest civilizations labored to entomb their kings and queens with enough care as to ensure their safe arrival to the hereafter. Thus, the onus of eternity has always haunted humanity like the strange curse of death itself. And as humanity still reckons with that inexplicably egregious entity called evil—does anyone actually know what it is, or who it is?

Download or read book Transformative Motherhood written by Linda Layne and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 1999-08 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our consumer culture sets exacting standards and norms for what constitutes an ideal child. The tough realities of life often create children and child-bearing and rearing circumstances that are outside the ideal. How do women whose experiences don't match the norm cope and adapt? How do they make sense of it to themselves and to the world? In a rich series of ethnographic case studies, Transformative Motherhood intimately conveys the experiences of women in the United States who, in each case, have reproductive encounters that do not match up to these cultural standards. From women who choose to become surrogate, foster, or adoptive mothers, to others who give birth to children with disabilities or who have had a pregnancy loss, all creatively meet the challenges posed by their particular mothering experiences. It is often the language of giving and getting, so prominent in a consumer culture, that these women use to make sense of their situation. In the process, Transformative Motherhood redefines conventional understandings of motherhood, the mother/child relationship, and the role of biology and the law in determining what constitutes a family. The contributors include Rayna Rapp, Helena Ragone, Judith A. Modell, Danielle Wozniak, Gail Landsman, and Linda L. Layne. "This text opens up multiple possibilities for reading contemporary women as responsive speaking subjects involved in reconstructing and transferring meanings without consolidating or totalizing their outcomes." —Resources for Feminist Research, Winter/Spring 2001, Vol. 28, No. 3⁄4

I choose to LIVE. I choose to honor the sweet soul of my husband. I choose to honor the Spirit of God within me, and TRULY LIVE. This is my story. It could be yours, too.

Download or read book The Smart Wife written by Yolande Strengers and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-08-31 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life and times of the Smart Wife--feminized digital assistants who are friendly and sometimes flirty, occasionally glitchy but perpetually available. Meet the Smart Wife--at your service, an eclectic collection of feminized AI, robotic, and smart devices. This digital assistant is friendly and sometimes flirty, docile and efficient, occasionally glitchy but perpetually available. She might go by Siri, or Alexa, or inhabit Google Home. She can keep us company, order groceries, vacuum the floor, turn out the lights. A Japanese digital voice assistant--a virtual anime hologram named Hikari Azuma--sends her "master" helpful messages during the day; an American sexbot named Roxxxy takes on other kinds of household chores. In The Smart Wife, Yolande Strengers and Jenny Kennedy examine the emergence of digital devices that carry out "wifework"--domestic responsibilities that have traditionally fallen to (human) wives. They show that the principal prototype for these virtual helpers--designed in male-dominated industries--is the 1950s housewife: white, middle class, heteronormative, and nurturing, with a spick-and-span home. It's time, they say, to give the Smart Wife a reboot. What's wrong with preferring domestic assistants with feminine personalities? We like our assistants to conform to gender stereotypes--so what? For one thing, Strengers and Kennedy remind us, the design of gendered devices re-inscribes those outdated and unfounded stereotypes. Advanced technology is taking us backwards on gender equity. Strengers and Kennedy offer a Smart Wife "manifesta," proposing a rebooted Smart Wife that would promote a revaluing of femininity in society in all her glorious diversity.
