  Ancient and mysterious. Powerful and deadly. All-knowing and generous. The Gods of Egypt were many things. 
   
  They originated many thousands of years ago in a land far away from Egypt. Over time they evolved, changed, adapted and grew in mystery. 
   
  Their stories are filled with great battles and vengeance. Of cycles of nature and the balance of the very universe. Their tales a real game of thrones. 
   
  From the gods of the underworld such as Osiris and Anubis, to the gods of light such as Amun-Ra and Horus, the lives and actions of the Gods of Ancient Egypt explain our very existence and our place in the universe. The mysteries of all that is and ever shall be were explored in their lives. 
   
  Isis immaculately conceived the son of God. Horus and Set did battle again and again as light and dark. Maat was the fundamental order of the universe itself. Ra was the rising sun. Osiris was God of the underworld. Thoth created writing, science and more. All of this as a mirror to the observable world and even more to explain that which cannot be observed. 
   
  Their influence has travelled across continents and across time. Our own so-called religions are full of them under different names. 
   
  This is the fascinating story of the Real Gods of Egypt.

  In Occult Diseases: A Review of Unbalance, Manly P. Hall turns his penetrating insight toward the hidden roots of human suffering. More than a study of physical or mental illness, this rare essay—originally published in The All-Seeing Eye—investigates the spiritual and psychological disorders that arise when harmony is broken between the soul, mind, and body. Hall reveals how ignorance, selfishness, and emotional extremes generate destructive vibrations that can manifest as disease, imbalance, and inner decay. He outlines not only the causes of occult affliction but also the principles of restoration: discipline, clarity, virtue, and alignment with higher truth. 
  This is not a medical manual—it is a guide for the soul's hygiene.

  The following is Roosevelt's Infamy Speech to a joint session of Congress on December 8, 1941, one day after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Franklin Delano Roosevelt (January 30, 1882 - April 12, 1945), was an American politician and lawyer who served as the 32nd president of the United States from 1933 until his death in 1945. As the leader of the Democrat Party, Roosevelt won a record four presidential elections, directing the federal government during most of the Great Depression, implementing his New Deal domestic agenda, which would define modern liberalism in the United States throughout the middle third of the 20th century. His third and fourth terms were dominated by World War II, which ended in victory shortly after he died in office.

  Beginning with Woodrow Wilson and U.S. entry into World War I and closing with the Great Depression, The Perils of Prosperity traces the transformation of America from an agrarian, moralistic, isolationist nation into a liberal, industrialized power involved in foreign affairs in spite of itself.
   
  William E. Leuchtenburg’s lively yet balanced account of this hotly debated era in American history has been a standard text for many years. This substantial revision gives greater weight to the roles of women and minorities in the great changes of the era and adds new insights into literature, the arts, and technology in daily life. He has also updated the lists of important dates and resources for further reading.
   
  “This book gives us a rare opportunity to enjoy the matured interpretation of an American Historian who has returned to the story and seen how recent decades have added meaning and vividness to this epoch of our history.”—Daniel J. Boorstin, from the Preface

  Do you seek the truth? 
   
   
   
  Do you value reason, science, and independent thinking? Are you skeptical of beliefs that people maintain merely "on faith," yet you remain interested in the big questions of life? Do you hope there could be a greater purpose to the universe, if only that were realistic? 
   
   
   
  If so, then philosopher Joshua Rasmussen can encourage you in your journey. Beginning with his own story of losing faith and the belief in any ultimate purpose in life, he then builds a bridge to a series of universal truths about ultimate reality. Using only the instruments of reason and common experience, Rasmussen constructs a pathway—step by step, brick by brick—that he argues can lead to meaning and, ultimately, a vision of God.

  White Poverty The Invisible...

  A deacon once approached Reverend William J. Barber II in his church study, asking for help with a young woman’s $50 light bill. Deacons, like this retired Black man in North Carolina, have a long tradition of serving the vulnerable. Barber agreed to help but realized the deacon couldn’t see the deeper issue: the woman worked two jobs and still struggled. This blindness to poverty isn’t a personal failure but a result of societal myths. 
  Barber, inspired by biblical prophets, believes in calling attention to the unseen poor. He has met poor people across America who share their stories, asking not for bailouts but for recognition. Nearly 40 million Americans are officially poor, but this number is misleading. The outdated Official Poverty Measure doesn’t account for today’s high cost of living. 
  Many Americans live paycheck to paycheck, with real wages lower than 50 years ago. Wealth inequality has grown, with the richest 1 percent owning more than the combined wealth of 80 percent of the population. Politicians avoid naming this crisis, and myths about poverty persist. Researchers have found that 140 million Americans are poor or low-income, including 66 million white people. Most of America’s poor are white.
