Some of the most significant obstacles to human well-being today are habits of Western thought that have been exported around the world. These habits include dichotomous conceptions of truth and relativity, cynical conceptions of knowledge and power, and conflictual conceptions of science and religion. Michael Karlberg articulates a framework for reconciling each of these false dichotomies in a critically informed and constructive manner. He does this, in philosophical terms, by reconciling ontological foundationalism and epistemological relativism within a moderate social constructionist framework. Karlberg's timely and accessible argument is offered with a spirit of humility and open-mindedness, inviting dialogue characterized by the same spirit, born out of genuine concern for the betterment of humanity at this critical juncture in history.

Описание: This volume exposes naturalism`s unnaturalness and defends theism`s naturalness and greater explanatory power to account for wide-ranging phenomena in the world and human experience. A broadening of naturalism to accommodate these features means borrowing heavily from-and thus more closely resembling-a theistic worldview.
More than fifteen years after its groundbreaking release, The Maker's Diet is still changing lives with a vibrant program that can pull you out of the grip of debilitating disease and help you enter the Promised Land of excellent health.
Jordan Rubin knows what it was like to be living at death's door. Twenty-five years ago, he was suffering from Crohn's disease in addition to a host of incurable digestive illnesses, leaving him with a bleak future. At just nineteen years old, Jordan wondered if he'd survive to his next birthday.
After visiting seventy doctors and trying every "miracle" drug, diet, and supplement on the market, he found himself tearing through the pages of the world's oldest, most sacred, and bestselling book-the Bible. What he found was a superb health plan that literally transformed his life and gave rise to The Maker's Diet.
On the following pages, you'll discover how to live at your peak health by following Jordan's 40-Day Health Experience: 40 days to abundant energy and improved appearance.
While Jordan's three-phase, 40-day health plan remains intact, in this new edition, he's directed his healthy-living prescription to a new audience living in a unique time: the first generation to suffer in alarming numbers from chronic degenerative and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, chronic fatigue syndrome, Crohn's disease, Type I diabetes, and even Parkinson's disease. Additionally, the addiction to opioids-from prescription pain relievers to fentanyl-has created an "overdose crisis" among young people. With all this bad news, our very existence as a species is threatened if we don't change-and change quickly. But Jordan has some good news: you can redirect your own health destiny, no matter how old, or how unhealthy, you are right now.
If you're suffering from debilitating disease, feeling hopeless, and doubting if you will ever feel like your old self again, let Jordan Rubin show you how you can make a comeback and experience robust health. Let The Maker's Dietchange your life today.
Throughout her work, Octavia E. Butler explored, critiqued, and created religious ideology. Her prescient thoughts on the synergy between politics and religion in America are evident in her 1993 dystopian novel, Parable of the Sower, and its 1998 sequel, Parable of the Talents. They explored, respectively, what happens during a divisive “cultural war” that unjustly impacts the disenfranchised, and the rise of a fascistic president, allied with white fundamentalist Christianity, who chants the slogan, “Make America Great Again.”
But religion, for Butler, need not be a restricting force. The editors of and contributors to God Is Change heighten our appreciation for the range and depth of Butler’s thinking about spirituality and religion, as well as how Butler’s work—especially the Parable and Xenogenesis series—offers resources for healing and community building. Essays consider the role of spirituality in Butler’s canon and the themes of confronting trauma as well as experiencing transformation and freedom. God Is Change meditates on alternate religious possibilities that open different political and cultural futures to illustrate humanity’s ability to endure change and thrive.

This book considers whether recent theories from Cognitive Science of Religion (CSR) undermine the epistemic status of religious belief. After introducing the key theories in the growing area of CSR, Hans Van Eyghen explores some of the epistemic questions surrounding CSR, including: Is CSR incompatible with the truth of religious belief? How might CSR show that religious belief is unreliably formed? And, finally, does CSR undermine the justification of religious belief by religious experiences? In addressing these questions, he demonstrates how CSR does not undermine the epistemic bases for religious belief.
This book offers a clear and concise overview of the current state of cognitive science of religion and will be of particular interest to scholars working in philosophy and epistemology of religion.

Описание: The lectures contained in this volume were given for the University of Edinburgh on Lord Gifford's foundation in the years 1933 and 1934. I have delayed their publication in the hope that with process of time I might, by further reading and thought, be able to expand and modify them, so as to make them more worthy of presentation to the public in the form of a book. This hope has been so meagrely realized that it now seems best to let them go forth, with all their imperfections on their head, hardly at all altered from the form in which they were delivered. Some changes in arrangement have been made in the order of lectures: the two on Time now follow immediately the two on the spatial symbol of Height. Four lectures have been omitted altogether from the present volume, those on image-worship and doctrines condemning the manufacture of images in antiquity and in the Christian Church. Since in the rest of the lectures the symbolism of material objects in worship was not the kind of symbolism under consideration, these four lectures seemed somewhat of a digression from the main line of argument. I hope later on to issue them as a small book by themselves.
