The Turn

Dennis Joiner

This book looks at American life during a pivotal time (1950-2024) in American history: the Turn. It covers the postwar booms, social movements, the Reagan revolution, the Gulf wars, the war on terror as well as counterculture, protest movements, and the election of two unique presidents. The Turn looks at 75 years from the perspective of social change and modes of thought and the concomitant tension, conflict, and controversy that disaffected Americans who, despite their best efforts to live normal lives, could not escape from a miasma of discontent. The wars, the violence associated with protests, financial crises and a global pandemic, all came at great human cost to many Americans families. This book looks at effects of these occurrences on American society: examining such topics as illiberal religions, the corrupt media, the trappings of greed in politics, globalism, the woke culture; the role of film, television, and music; and more.

The Gods of the Nile - Exploring...

Julia Blacksmith

Ancient Egypt was a civilization deeply rooted in religion, where gods and goddesses played an essential role in shaping daily life, governance, and the afterlife. The Egyptian pantheon was vast, with deities representing natural forces, human emotions, and cosmic order. These gods were not distant or abstract figures but were actively involved in the lives of the people, influencing everything from the flooding of the Nile to the fate of the soul after death. The Egyptians believed that by honoring their gods through rituals, prayers, and temple offerings, they could maintain harmony in the universe.
One of the defining aspects of Egyptian religion was its polytheistic nature. Unlike monotheistic faiths, which center around a single divine being, the Egyptians worshipped hundreds of gods, each with unique attributes, symbols, and responsibilities. Some, like Ra, the sun god, were powerful and widely revered, while others, such as Taweret, the hippo goddess of childbirth, had more specialized roles. Many deities evolved over time, merging with others or taking on new characteristics as different cities and dynasties rose to prominence. This fluidity allowed Egyptian religion to remain relevant for over three thousand years.
The gods were not only worshipped in grand temples but were also deeply integrated into the personal lives of the people. Pharaohs were believed to be divine or semi-divine figures, ruling as representatives of the gods on Earth. Priests conducted elaborate ceremonies in temple complexes dedicated to major deities, ensuring their favor and protection over the land. Ordinary Egyptians also kept small shrines in their homes, prayed to household gods for blessings, and wore protective amulets bearing sacred symbols. Magic and mythology were intertwined with religious practice, with spells and sacred texts often invoking the names of gods for healing, guidance, and protection.

The Outline Of Sanity

G.K. Chesterton

The experiments of both Capitalism and Communism are almost complete, and they both lead to one big organization controlling everything you do. In 1925, when this book was first published, it was true, and it is even truer today.If you desire an alternative, consider this book, which considers Distributism, a philosophy whereby the actual people own the actual means of production, and produce and sustain themselves with it. A philosophy summed up in Chesterton's famous proposal of "Three acres and a cow" as being catalyst to an ideal peasant state.For such a simple idea, it has proven very contrary to the ideas of those in power, which is to say, to those who want power.  But for the rest of us, for the sane humans who desire peace and liberty, this book is a call to action against monopoly and the inevitability of global standardization, which the magazines call the Supply Chain and the Bible might call Babel and Babylon. Narrated in an accent based upon Chesterton's own, this performance expresses Chesterton's words as he himself might have, delivering them to an audience of his time.

How God Thinks - Revealing God's...

David Vancelette

God created us in his image. This places a great burden on each person to not break that image of God within us. God thinks in symbols and so do we. There is always punishment for broken symbolism. Questions considered are, what does God think about: Gender, marriage, sex, the Cross as broken, not fulfilled symbolism? Why did God punish Moses so harshly when he struck the Rock in the wilderness the second time? Why is God allowing seemingly innocent victims to die by random shooters? Why does God see the climate change movement as idolatry? Why did Satan devise homosexuality? Why did God assign the death penalty for male but not female homosexuality? Why is having multiple wives acceptable in the Old Testament, but not having multiple husbands? All these topics, and many others, have to do with symbolism and are explained by How God Thinks.
