Sinossi

"Holy Mountains" explores the profound religious and historical significance of mountains across diverse cultures, examining why these geological formations are consistently revered as sacred sites. Mountains often serve as "axis mundi," connecting the earthly and divine realms, influencing religious rituals and artistic expression. It's intriguing how mountains, due to their physical grandeur and perceived proximity to the divine, have become central to the spiritual lives of millions.

 
The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing from religious studies, anthropology, and geography to understand mountain veneration. It progresses from establishing a theoretical framework, to examining specific examples like Mount Sinai and Mount Kailash, and finally analyzing the broader implications for environmental ethics and interfaith dialogue.

 
This study uniquely synthesizes scholarship to offer a comprehensive understanding of sacred landscapes and their cultural heritage.
Disponibile da: 27/02/2025.

    The respected Italian economist and journalist offers a bold and provocative argument that the speed of technological transformation is threatening our future 
     
     
     
    At the dawn of the digital revolution, the internet was going to be the great equalizer, a global democratic force. Instead, Wall Street ended up funding a new breed of serial capitalists, the Techtitans, who embraced rapid, transformational change while stripping their workers of rights and enriching themselves beyond anybody's wildest imagination; and the Space Barons, who mine new frontiers for precious resources. 
     
     
     
    Tech pioneers like Google, Facebook, Apple, Uber, and Microsoft never had any intention of spreading democracy. Those who control and own the technology are the absolute masters. As artificial intelligence enters the labor market, companies like Uber are able to cut labor costs to the barest of minimums, by squeezing workers' privileges and rights. 
     
      
     
    Technological transformation is occurring at a speed that is existentially unbearable for most of us. We must fight for our common good to address today's real challenges of global warming and militarism and the soulessness of capitalist endeavor. Napoleoni shows us how.

    The former pastor who wrote this booklet realized his conscience could not accept at least three of the Bible's teachings. Some parts of it contradicted others and some scientific discoveries (not hypotheses) went against at least two of its teachings. This booklet is short because he wanted to focus on solid arguments against it all being "God-spirited."

    What is Critical Race Theory?
    It may be one of the most widely referenced issues of the day, but it's also one of the least understood. In its translation from the academic world to the general public, Critical Race Theory (CRT) has inaccurately become a catch-all term for anything related to race. But what does it actually mean, and how should Christians engage it?
    Ed Uszynski—whose PhD in American culture studies navigated readings in Marxism, Critical Theory, and Critical Race Theory—carefully unpacks what critical race theorists seek to accomplish and what Christians can learn from them. Uszynski generously explores CRT's roots, context, and central tenets, revealing how its insights are used and distorted but also how they might benefit the church. With responsible answers to legitimate concerns, Uszynski goes beyond the surface to provide a reliable path of just discernment and cultural engagement.
