  The Necessity Of Atheism

  Atheism, in the broadest sense, is an absence of belief in the existence of deities. Less broadly, atheism is a rejection of the belief that any deities exist. In an even narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities. Atheism is contrasted with theism, which in its most general form is the belief that at least one deity exists. 
  The first individuals to identify themselves as atheists lived in the 18th century during the Age of Enlightenment. The French Revolution noted for its "unprecedented atheism", witnessed the first significant political movement in history to advocate for the supremacy of human reason. In 1967, Albania declared itself the first official atheist country according to its policy of state Marxism. 
   
  Arguments for atheism range from philosophical to social and historical approaches. Rationales for not believing in deities include the lack of evidence, the problem of evil, the argument from inconsistent revelations, the rejection of concepts that cannot be falsified, and the argument from nonbelief. Nonbelievers contend that atheism is a more parsimonious position than theism and that everyone is born without a belief in deities; therefore, they argue that the burden of proof lies not on the atheist to disprove the existence of gods but on the theist to provide a rationale for theism. Although some atheists have adopted secular philosophies (e.g. secular humanism), there is no ideology or code of conduct to which all atheists adhere.

  Adelaide Smith is too busy for fairy tales.  
   
  She's been working hard to put herself through law school, and she's determined to stay focused on her goals. Then she receives a letter notifying her that she is a direct descendant of King Maximillian Konig V, the ruler of a small European principality called Montovia.  
   
  What? No. That's the stuff of cheesy made-for-TV movies, not real life. 
   
  Still, curiosity gets the best of her, leading to a Christmas break trip chock-full of surprises, including a charming village, an opulent palace, family mysteries, royal jealousies, a handsome young member of Parliament, and the chance at a real-life fairy tale romance. 
   
  "Carlson puts a charming, Christmasy spin on a rags-to-royalty Cinderella story. Readers will cheer on Carlson's spunky, earnest heroine."--Publishers Weekly 
   
  "Carlson's latest impeccably written inspirational romance is wholesome holiday fun for readers who like their romances dressed up with a bit of fairy-tale glitz and glam."--Booklist

  And Then There Were Some - A...

  Nineteenth century Scottish author Thomas Carlyle once said that religion is the most important thing about a person. By religion, he did not mean the church-creed people profess, but what they do that identifies their relationship to this mysterious universe. Religion is a depiction of one's worldview. It might be inherited from family, adopted from friends or admired persons, ... or it could be a reflection of one's preferred lifestyle. 
  Sadly, the topic of worldviews is a sensitive one, despite its crucial role in charting our destiny. Very few people want to hear what they don't want to hear. And Then There Were Some takes an evidence-based approach to major worldviews. Hundreds of references are drawn from science, history, literature, philosophy, entertainment, exploration, and scripture to encourage the reader to consider the factual bases of the world's major claims. 
  A man was once how he became successful. He answered that, as a boy, when he and his friends hunted birds' eggs he could always find more eggs than any of the other boys. When asked why, he said that he thought it was because he always looked into more bushes. And Then There Were Some is a bush worth looking into.

  How did personal convictions lead to religious revolutions in the lives of the Sahabah? Explore the transformative power of belief through the lives of those who walked with the Prophet.The Sahabah are the Muslim companions of the Prophet Muhammad. This category of people are known as Ahl-Kitab Sahabah because they had previously believed in the previous Islamic prophets such as Moses and Jesus as well as books of divine revelation prior to meeting Muhammad and confirming his message as the God-given truth. These were the contemporary disciples of Muhammad who were Jews and Christians who met him and became Muslims.  In the heart of Islamic history, former Jews and Christians like Abdullah bin Salam and Salman al-Farsi changed their entire worldviews, embracing Islam after profound encounters with the Prophet Muhammad. The author, a former Christian who became Muslim himself, brings these stories to life, highlighting the themes of wisdom, humility, and the quest for truth. The narratives are embedded with historical contexts, showing how personal journeys of faith and conversion contributed to the spread and enrichment of Islam. By turning the pages of this book, you engage with stories that not only recount historical facts but also inspire personal reflection and societal understanding.
