Puerto Rican Espiritismo
ISBN: 9781484095751 / Angielski / Miękka / 94 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many Puerto Ricans consider Espiritismo a religion along with Catholic teachings of Christ. They use the Bible, the New Testament, as interpreted and instructed by Alan Kardec. They also made use of other religious outstanding teachers of Europe and the Americas to expand and compliment Espiritismo practice. It helped them overcome a myriad of problems they were facing in NYC during the 1950's and the following 2 decades. Most of the Espiritismo seances were held at home behind doors as this religious practice was frowned upon by the traditional Catholic and Protestant Churches.

In fact, there isn t a strict separation of the two concepts until the modern period, as in Pascal s famous claim that the heart has its reasons that reason can not know. Since then, many other philosophers and theologians have made a similar distinction.The fact that this distinction...

Supernatural Selection: How Religion Evolved
ISBN: 9780195385816 / Angielski / Twarda / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 2006, scientist Richard Dawkins published a blockbuster bestseller, The God Delusion. This atheist manifesto sparked a furious reaction from believers, who have responded with numerous books of their own. By pitting science against religion, however, this debate overlooks what science can tell us about religion. According to evolutionary psychologist Matt J. Rossano, what science reveals is that religion made us human. In Supernatural Selection, Rossano presents an evolutionary history of religion. Neither an apologist for religion nor a religion-basher, he draws...
