  Agreeing to Disagree - How the...

  The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion", may be the most contentious and misunderstood provision of the entire United States Constitution. What exactly is an "establishment of religion"? And what is a law "respecting" it? 
   
   
   
  Many commentators reduce the clause to "the separation of church and state." This implies that church and state are at odds, that the public sphere must be secular, and that the Establishment Clause is in tension with the Free Exercise of Religion Clause. All of these implications misconstrue the Establishment Clause's original purpose. The clause facilitates religious diversity and guarantees equality of religious freedom by prohibiting the government from coercing or inducing citizens to change their religious beliefs and practices. 
   
   
   
  In Agreeing to Disagree, Nathan S. Chapman and Michael W. McConnell detail the theological, political, and philosophical underpinnings of the Establishment Clause, state disestablishment, and the disestablishment norms applied to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment. In one of the most thorough accounts of the Establishment Clause, Chapman and McConnell argue that the clause is best understood as a constitutional commitment for Americans to agree to disagree about matters of faith.

Ancient Deities brings together the awe-inspiring pantheons of three of the world’s earliest and most influential civilizations: Egypt, Sumer, and Rome. 
  Begin your journey in the Nile Valley with Ancient Egyptian Gods, where deities like Ra, Osiris, and Isis governed life, death, and rebirth through intricate rituals and symbolism. Travel east to the cradle of civilization with Sumerian Gods and Heroes, uncovering powerful figures such as Enlil, Inanna, and the legendary Gilgamesh. Finally, explore the mythic heart of an empire in Roman Gods and Legends, where Jupiter, Mars, and Venus reflected both divine might and human ambition. 
  This 3-in-1 volume is perfect for lovers of mythology, ancient history enthusiasts, and anyone fascinated by the enduring power of gods and legends in shaping early human culture.

  “What do you think happens after we die?” has been Elizabeth Earley’s favorite conversation starter since the motorcycle accident that almost killed her. In Little Deaths All in a Row: Essays on Sex and Death, Earley delves into memories of past lovers and offers vivid portraits of the hospice patients she has worked with after recovering from her own near-fatal injuries. Tracing the many connections—philosophical, scientific, ethical, and spiritual—between sex and death, these lyric essays ponder the afterlife, pain and pleasure, quantum entanglement and love, and the “strange and painful goodness of being alive.”
