In his Little Blue Christian Essays, Kwasi Yeboah-Afihene achieves a rare feat--he casts the message of his essays in a style that combines a sense of the erudite with a sense of the quiet spirit within. The reader is well-served by the format of this "little blue" book, which allows either continuous reading or more discrete samplings. I found that I preferred the latter since that method provides time for reflection on the variety of ideas and insights contained therein. Mr. Yeboah-Afihene is clearly a man of deep faith; his outlook on life has been shaped by his connection with the holy....

Why I Cannot Believe a Word the Religious Say
ISBN: 9781480280861 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is a large difference between a religious claim and a scientific one.

In this essay, I dispel two commonly believed myths that have been proposed by the religious for centuries: that the supernatural exists, and that miracles can occur. I go on to show why everything must have an immutable essence, why the laws of nature are themselves immutable, and why this leads us to conclude that everything is material, that the scope of...

ISBN: 9781409453949 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. People often overlook the uncanny nature of homecomings, writing off the experience of finding oneself at home in a strange place or realizing that places from our past have grown strange. This book challenges our assumptions about the value of home, arguing for the ethical value of our feeling displaced and homeless in the 21st century. Home is explored in places ranging from digital keyboards to literary texts, and investigates how we mediate our homecomings aesthetically through cultural artifacts (art, movies, television shows) and conceptual structures (philosophy, theology, ethics,...

ISBN: 9780754666929 / Angielski / Twarda / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite narratives of secularization, it appears that the British public persistently pay attention to clerical opinion and continually resort to popular expressions of religious faith, not least in time of war. From the throngs of men who gathered to hear the Bishop of London preach recruiting sermons during the First World War, to the attention paid to Archbishop Williams' words of conscience on Iraq, clerical rhetoric remains resonant. For the countless numbers who attended National Days of Prayer during the Second World War, and for the many who continue to find the Remembrance Day...
