  Will we choose life for our children and the future of our planet? Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth: Extreme weather patterns wreak havoc. Pollutants sour soils and waterways. Fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, the solutions can’t come through the same systems that created those problems. ​ Ecological justice requires us to challenge our assumptions about creation and our relationship to it. It requires decolonization. We must turn to the leadership of Indigenous communities who struggle for all life as land and water protectors, and we must call on people of faith to join them—to confront climate change and resource extraction and choose life for our children and the future of our planet. This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus.

  You Shall Be as Gods - Pagans...

  Our country doesn't have a partisan problem, a political problem, a social problem, or an economic problem. We have a spiritual problem. 
   
   
   
  As Christianity has been pushed aside, the Progressive Left has developed a new pagan religion. But the radical roots of the new secular religion are ancient. We've seen it all before. In You Shall Be as Gods, Erick Erickson traces the religion's roots from Paganism and Gnosticism through the Age of Enlightenment all the way into the Postmodernism of the twenty-first century. At the heart of the ancient religion is a self-centered culture. 
   
   
   
  The Christian church today has been weakened by compromising with the neo-pagan religion, leaving the faithful ill-prepared to counter the claims of society's present-day doctrine. Yet there remains a significant remnant in America that refuses to bow to the rising belief system. 
   
   
   
  Just as in Rome and countless societies throughout history, the religions present two opposing stories of reality which necessitates conflict. In an era where the "Christian thing" to do seems to be to go along and get along, Erickson makes clear that the two cultures cannot peacefully coexist and calls the listener to speak the truth in love.

  The Theory of Evolution is a Joke

  Danny Erhardt, a mild mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, has sought the truth, and fortuitously found it. You can too. If you seek it with all your heart. If you love the truth more than the opinions and conclusions that are already in your head. The lies of Satan ("the great deceiver who goes forth to deceive the whole world") cover this earth like a blanket, and people believe whatever they are taught. (Evolution is one of them...) What lies have you been taught? have you learned to hold dear? ...Danny is father to a half dozen boys and girls, and grandfather to a little more than half a dozen.  
  If you have any unintelligent criticisms or thoughtless attacks on the truth, to share, please send them to our Complaint Dept. Administrator, Mrs. Helen Waite. Go to her if you feel the need to vent any or all of the evolutionary indoctrinated lies that we were all fed, and that unfortunately too many still believe. Also, if anyone is offended by any, or all, of the accurate scientific truths and realities imparted here, then please bang your face against your bathroom mirror for about half an hour, and then hide under your mommy's bed for a couple of weeks. This should help.  
  Well, thank you so much for picking up a copy of this book, or considering doing the same. It's called the truth. And may God (you know, the actual Creator of all of this) richly bless you and yours.

  News and Democratic Citizens in...

  Though people frequently use mobile technologies for news consumption, evidence from several fields shows that smaller screens and slower connection speeds pose major limitations for meaningful reading. In News and Democratic Citizens in the Mobile Era, Johanna Dunaway and Kathleen Searles demonstrate the effects of mobile devices on news attention, engagement, and recall, and identify a key cognitive mechanism underlying these effects: cognitive effort. They advance a theory that is both old and new: the costs of information-seeking curb participatory behaviors unless the benefits outweigh them. For news consumers in the mobile era, for example, mobile devices increase the time, economic, and cognitive costs associated with information-seeking. Only for a small few do the benefits of attending to the news on mobile devices outweigh the costs. 
   
   
   
  Dunaway and Searles argue that attention, engagement, and recall suffer when people consume news on mobile devices. They then investigate the implications of these effects for the news industry and for an informed democratic citizenry. Drawing on both laboratory and real-world studies, Dunaway and Searles bring the psychophysiology of news consumption to bear on the question of what we could lose in an information environment characterized by a dramatic shift in reliance on mobile devices.
