Dot, Dot, Dot - Infinity Plus God Equals Folly (Paperback): James A Lindsay Dot, Dot, Dot - Infinity Plus God Equals Folly (Paperback)
James A Lindsay; Foreword by Victor J. Stenger
R505 Discovery Miles 5 050 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Infinity and God have been close bedfellows over the recent millennia of human thought. But this is James A. Lindsay's point. These two ideas are thought, mere concepts. Lindsay shows in a concise and readable manner that infinity is an abstraction, and shows that, in all likelihood, so is God, particularly if he has infinite properties. This book is about math. It is about God. It is about stressing the importance of not confusing these two ideas with reality. Never the twain shall meet. "A short and engaging read on the meeting of two huge ideas, infinity and God, that leaves us seeing both as abstract ideas that may have nothing to do with reality. Honest and accessible, Dot, Dot, Dot is a great little book to stretch your thinking." - Peter Boghossian, author of A Manual for Creating Atheists "Timely, important and very readable, this book pulls the rug from under theists' feet." - Jonathan MS Pearce, The Little Book of Unholy Questions "Read this to avoid making any more cardinal sins and learn how much math is an amazing human endeavor." - Aaron Adair, PhD, The Star of Bethlehem: A Skeptical View

Atheism, Science and Me (Paperback): Alain F. Corcos Atheism, Science and Me (Paperback)
Alain F. Corcos
R209 Discovery Miles 2 090 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Alain F. Corcos was raised by a family of nonbelievers. When he grew up and pursued a career in science, he encountered nothing to challenge his lack of faith. In fact, he would have considered his atheism completely unremarkable if not for the reactions he confronted again and again: - How can you be moral when you don't believe in God?
- If you know you can't prove God doesn't exist, doesn't that make you agnostic?
- Aren't you afraid of death?

In "Atheism, Science, and Me," Dr. Corcos reminisces about satisfying his thirst for knowledge through research rather than religious doctrine or philosophy. While he has no interest in "converting" anybody to atheism, the good-natured enthusiasm with which he presents his worldview conveys the joys of a life unencumbered by religion.

ALAIN F. CORCOS is a retired professor of botany. His previous books are "Mendel, Genes and You; Race and Difference Among Us"; "Biological Experiments and Ideas";" Race and You"; "Gregor Mendel's Experiments on Plant Hybrids: A Guided Study (with Floyd V. Monaghan)"; "The Myth of Human Races"; "Four Short True Stories of a French Family"; "The Myth of the Jewish Race: A Biologist's Point of View"; "The Little Yellow Train: Survival and Escape from Nazi France (June 1940-March 1944)"; and "Who Is a Jew? Thoughts of a Biologist: An Essay Dedicated to the Jewish and Non-Jewish Victims of the Nazi Holocaust."

Every statement that a person makes is either true or false-that is, a lie. In his comprehensive study, "Lies Have Ruined the World," author Dennis Proux seeks to expose the dishonesty, myths, and fabrications provided by powerful influences in the most important areas of our lives, including religious institutions, government, and our legal system.

Proux feels that all humans yearn to be free to discover their own worlds and realize their full potential. While relying on the wisdom and insight from such authors as Charles Darwin, Thomas Paine, Carl Sagan, and countless others, Proux offers a compelling glimpse into the lies surrounding western monotheistic religions, Wall Street, and our nation's government and justice system. As he examines biblical tales, reveals corruption within our society, and dissects many painful realities, Proux offers insight and potential solutions that will ultimately inspire a life based on fact and honesty, rather than on fiction and lies.

"Lies Have Ruined the World" encourages seekers of the truth to explore their own perceptions of the failure of western institutions to garner and hold trust.

The Atheist Delusion (Paperback): Vic Zarley The Atheist Delusion (Paperback)
Vic Zarley
R249 Discovery Miles 2 490 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Sprinkled throughout this book is a rebuttal to Richard Dawkins book, "The God Delusion." In addition to that, however, there is a strong message for the Christian Church. Over time, the Church has allowed much to dilute Christ's message and gets fairly caught up in social activities, food, musical events, more food, and bringing in the lost by giving them, yes, food, rather than spending much time equipping the Body of Christ with the tools to follow Jesus' commands ("If you love Me," He said, "follow my commands ") We tend to avoid the tasks before us that are the most difficult. High on the list of things to NOT do, because they are too hard, is love our enemies, pray for those who persecute us, die to self, swallow pride, and be a humble servant of God. We have no excuse to avoid Jesus' commands any longer. The TRUE Christian rubber must hit the road. God has given His Church reason to unite in prayer in the three New Atheists who brandish swords of unbelief, as they ride their black steeds through the courtyards of the Christian Church. Through this Biblical based book, the Christian will receive encouragement to "pray through" until the job is accomplished and the three New Atheists are brought to their knees, not by our cleverness, not by our threats, not by our preaching, nor by our curses-but by our prayers to the Almighty God of the Bible, which Christians will once again discover, is the most powerful force in the universe. Once the Christians see the power of God bring the atheists to their knees, which will happen when the Church unites in prayer for them, they will understand that all things are possible through Christ who strengthens them-all things the Lord commands we do, CAN be done, through Him The Atheist Delusion can lead to some mighty intense discussions. The atheists tend to think this spiritual discussion is the most ridiculous thing in the world. If one aggressive godless soul comes to the Lord, it will have been worth it.

The union of classical agnosticism and traditional Christianity has produced a more contemporary "middle of road Christianity." This book presents numerous facts about history and theology in an easy to understand manner. It also re-introduces us to the badly misunderstood theology of agnosticism and introduces us to Contemporary Agnosticism. Presented are Jesus' teachings after intense historical and scientific analysis.
Contemporary agnostics consider Jesus a great visionary and wandering sage but no more the son of God than any of us. With that in mind, the reader is urged to appreciate various contemporary religious principles, not because they'll go to a mythical hell if they don't, but because of its positive effect on the individual and society.
Christian history and theology are candidly scrutinized providing the reader with a tremendous amount of reference material.

Richard F. Wright
R372 Discovery Miles 3 720 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

How is it that billions of human beings continue to believe that there are mysterious deities hovering over us concerned with what we say, what we eat, and how we behave, and apparently with the ability to create the entire universe from its beginning, but can't seem to find a cure for the common cold; never mind disease, disaster, and destruction on a global scale? Author Richard F. Wright offers the answer in the form of his analysis of the prophets who created lies of such enormous proportions that humankind can't seem to unravel itself from the myths, mysteries, and mindlessness. Wright wrote the book initially as a letter to his wife Patti, acknowledging that she had figured out for herself, quickly and accurately, that there are no such things as deities and that organized religion ruins everything. After an extended review of the literature on the topic, Wright confirmed for himself, what his wife already knew, that his feelings over the years were justified; that organized religion was utter nonsense and there are no such things as deities worthy of worship. His review of seven major prophets confirms there is a pattern to the fraud they perpetrate in the name of their deities. Wright cautions those who still believe in deities and can't imagine life without a church that this book is not for them. It's for those who know, or suspect, that atheism is more natural and accurate as a life stance than anything to be gained from any organized religion. The World's Seven Biggest Liars exposes the lies the prophets spread and how it is that humankind has been and continues to be their victims.

Across the world, sacred sites are linked together by mysterious alignments on the landscape. In the British Isles these links have come to be known as Ley Lines.

This revised and updated edition of the book by Danny Sullivan is the classic, comprehensive guide to the subject.

Written by a natural scientist, this book is an essay on universal consciousness, which the author explores using a comparative approach borrowed from the neurosciences and Physics. A super sentient being, God is relative to a level of organization and is necessarily hidden for sentient beings of lower levels.

This book is a joke. It's not a joke about Jesus and nothing derogatory is printed about him. In fact the front and back covers are very complimentary toward Jesus. The front cover says Remember Jesus Loves you and when you open the book the first page jumps out at you. It says in big, bold type "Everyone else thinks you're a cunt." The rest of the pages are intentionally left blank. You can order this book from Amazon and have it delivered to the person the joke is aimed at. It's real fun watching someone unwrap and open this book when you hand it to them as a gift. It's guaranteed to shock and make people laugh.
