  Atheists talk a lot about the importance of skepticism. But the truth is, they're not nearly skeptical enough.While atheists champion the importance of a critical stance toward religion, they often fail to take that same stance toward their own beliefs. This double standard results in grandiose claims about the certainty of their unbelief―which is logically inconsistent at best and intellectually dishonest at worst. Turning atheists’ skepticism around on their own naturalist worldview, philosopher Mitch Stokes critically examines two things that such skeptics hold dear―science and morality―and reveals deep inconsistencies among their most cherished beliefs, inconsistencies that threaten to undo atheism itself.

  Discover the divine language of numbers with The Mystical Meaning of Numbers in Sacred Scripture, a timeless work by the influential Doctor of the Church, St. Isidore of Seville (560–636), now available in English for the very first time. As a prolific author who also served as the bishop of Seville, Spain, St. Isidore unveils how sacred authors used numbers to convey important messages and to infuse mystical symbolism into Scripture.  
  Part of TAN’s celebrated Resurrection Series, this beautiful translation by Fr. Robert Nixon, OSB, opens the world of biblical numerology, long understood as key to unlocking mysteries of deep spiritual significance. The authors of Sacred Scripture, writes Fr. Nixon, understood that “the universe was a harmonious and precisely numbered ordered system, reflecting through this numerical ordering the glory and beauty of the Deity.” Because these numbers are spiritually significant, St. Isidore intends to equip readers “with the knowledge and insights to penetrate their hidden and mystical meanings.”  
  This edition offers thoughtful enhancements from Fr. Nixon, including:A faithful, yet accessible English translation from the original LatinA short biography of St. Isidore taken from the Tridentine BreviaryExtensive footnotes that help clarify, contextualize and illuminate the author’s insights
