Beschreibung

In Thinking Through Aquinas: Essays on God, Humanity, and Christ, Frederick Christian Bauerschmidt presents fourteen essays, written over the course of twenty years, that are attempts both to think through the arguments contained in the theology of Thomas Aquinas and to use the theology of Thomas to think through the questions that confront theologians in our own day. The essays include discussions of Thomas’s understanding of the nature of theology and of God; his reflections on virtue, vice, and the moral life; and his theology of Christ, the Church, and the Sacraments. Over the course of these essays, Thomas is brought into dialogue with figures ranging from Michel Foucault to Flannery O’Connor, Jonathan Lear to Ignacio Ellacuría, Stanley Hauerwas to St. John Paul II.

    Neoliberalism is a term that has been widely used in academic, political, and economic discussions, yet its exact definition often varies depending on the context. Broadly, neoliberalism refers to a set of economic and political policies that emphasize the role of free markets in achieving economic prosperity, social well-being, and individual freedom. At its core, neoliberalism promotes the idea that markets should operate with minimal interference from the state, and that individuals should be free to pursue their economic interests without governmental restrictions. 
    The roots of neoliberalism can be traced back to the early 20th century, particularly to the ideas of economists such as Friedrich Hayek and Milton Friedman. These thinkers were critical of state intervention in the economy and argued that government control of markets often led to inefficiency and loss of individual freedoms. Hayek’s influential work, The Road to Serfdom (1944), warned against the dangers of central planning and collectivism, which he believed could lead to authoritarianism. Similarly, Friedman, through his advocacy for monetarism and the reduction of government spending, pushed for policies that emphasized the importance of individual choice and market forces over state control. Their ideas laid the intellectual foundation for what would later become neoliberalism. 
    Neoliberalism as a political and economic force began to take shape during the 1970s as many Western economies faced economic stagnation and rising inflation, often referred to as stagflation. Traditional Keynesian approaches, which advocated for government intervention to manage demand and stabilize economies, appeared to fail in addressing these new challenges. In response, neoliberal ideas gained traction, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom.

    Stressing the positive, creative aspects of power and innocence, Rollo May offers a way of thinking about the problems of contemporary society. 
     
     
     
    Rollo May defines power as the ability to cause or prevent change; innocence, on the other hand, is the conscious divesting of one's power to make it seem a virtue, a form of powerlessness that Dr. May sees as particularly American in nature. From these basic concepts he suggests a new ethic that sees power as the basis for both human goodness and evil. 
     
     
     
    Dr. May discusses five levels of power's potential in each of us: the infant's power to be; self-affirmation, the ability to survive with self-esteem; self-assertion, which develops when self-affirmation is blocked; aggression, a reaction to thwarted assertion; and, finally, violence, when reason and persuasion are ineffective.

    At just 13 years old, Darnell Davis took the stand as the key witness in a murder trial that would send his father to prison for life. That moment didn’t just break his family—it fractured his sense of self, setting off years of pain, anger, and isolation. The 7 Wonders of Me is Darnell’s raw and revelatory memoir of what came after: the slow, spiritual excavation of his soul—and the courageous rebuilding of a life once lost to trauma. 
    More than a memoir, this book is a healing companion. Structured around the seven chakras, The 7 Wonders of Me charts Darnell’s path from survival to self-realization—beginning with the root chakra’s call for safety and trust, and culminating in the crown chakra’s invitation to live with purpose and divine connection. Each chapter offers not just gripping personal stories, but also the insights, practices, and breakthroughs that helped him rise. 
    Whether you are walking through your own fire or seeking a deeper connection to who you are, The 7 Wonders of Me is a soul-deep guide back to your light. With equal parts spiritual wisdom and hard-won truth, this is a book for anyone ready to turn their pain into power. 
    Perfect for readers of self-help, memoir, and spiritual growth, The 7 Wonders of Me is a testament to resilience, radical honesty, and the liberating power of self-love.

In the modern era, with the Internet at our disposal, we have the opportunity and the means to VOTE ONLINE and to cast our votes on National Ballot Measures.We can and we will get this country back as the greatest country in the history of the world, but only if we start down the right path NOW and this can happen only with your support.
