  “The magnum opus of one of today's most important Christian philosophers.”  —Stephen Post, PhD, author, Dignity for Deeply Forgetful People and Pure, Unlimited Love “A compelling exploration that brings out the joy and spiritual growth central to the gospel.”—Stephen Finlan, PhD, United Church of Christ pastor; noted biblical scholar “Seekers of all backgrounds—and especially independent thinkers—will find Jesus living on these pages as we’ve never seen him before.”—Angie Thurston, Harvard Fellow in Spirituality and Leadership Discover anew the living Jesus—our world’s greatest teacher—in this riveting work of short, lucid chapters that explore his life and legacy. And learn why Jesus was the supreme example of his own teaching: the gospel of love in the kingdom of God, and the joy of serving in God's universal family. Authored by a retired university professor and gospel evangelist, this unique depiction shows us how to live like Jesus: fresh, alive, original, spontaneous—and as a wellspring of love, mercy, and service. You’ll also discover a Jesus who was a scientist, philosopher, healer, friend, and humorist, a divine son who shows us how to move beyond the present chaos into the dawn of a worldwide spiritual renaissance. Walk with Jesus as he shows the way to a new era of unity among his followers and the path to worldwide cooperation among equals in the family of religions. “A rare work of grace and love that embodies the virtues it seeks to communicate.”—Matthew T. Lee, PhD, Professor of the Social Sciences and Humanities, Baylor University   “This book is saturated with hope. Jesus's promise of joy, love, and freedom is palpable on every page." —Rev. Paul McKenna, golden rule educator; interfaith pioneer

  From the author of the viral New York Times op-ed column ""To Siri with Love"" comes a collection of touching, hilarious, and illuminating stories about life with a thirteen-year-old boy with autism that hold insights and revelations for us all. 
  When Judith Newman shared the story of how Apple’s electronic personal assistant, Siri, helped Gus, her son who has autism, she received widespread media attention and an outpouring of affection from readers around the world. Basking in the afterglow of media attention, Gus told anyone who would listen, ""I’m a movie star."" 
  Judith’s story of her son and his bond with Siri was an unusual tribute to technology. While many worry that our electronic gadgets are dumbing us down, she revealed how they can give voice to others, including children with autism like Gus—a boy who has trouble looking people in the eye, hops when he’s happy, and connects with inanimate objects on an empathetic level. 
  To Siri with Love is a collection of funny, poignant, and uplifting stories about living with an extraordinary child who has helped a parent see and experience the world differently. From the charming (Gus weeping with sympathy over the buses that would lie unused while the bus drivers were on strike) to the painful (paying $22,000 for a behaviorist in Manhattan to teach Gus to use a urinal) to the humorous (Gus’s insistence on getting naked during all meals, whether at home or not, because he does not want to get his clothes dirty) to the profound (how an automated ""assistant"" helped a boy learn how to communicate with the rest of the world), the stories in To Siri with Love open our eyes to the magic and challenges of a life beyond the ordinary.

  After a couple of years, I’ve finally finished this book. It contains a sixth and concluding part of the story. To think I only intended to write a single part, mainly because I was big on writing short stories back then. Anyway, I do hope you enjoy this sci-fi story as much as I enjoyed writing it. 
   
  This book is intended for adults only. All characters depicted are 18 or older.

  The Ashtray - (Or the Man Who...

  Errol Morris

  In 1972, philosopher of science Thomas Kuhn threw an ashtray at Errol Morris. This book is the result. At the time, Morris was a graduate student. Now we know him as one of the most celebrated and restlessly probing filmmakers of our time, the creator of such classics of documentary investigation as The Thin Blue Line. Kuhn was—and, posthumously, remains—a star in his field and author of The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, a landmark book that introduced the concept of "paradigm shifts" to the larger culture. And Morris thought the idea was bunk. 
   
   
   
  The Ashtray tells why—and in doing so, it makes a powerful case for Morris's way of viewing the world, and the centrality to that view of a fundamental conception of the necessity of truth. "For me," Morris writes, "truth is about the relationship between language and the world: a correspondence idea of truth." He has no patience for philosophical systems that aim for internal coherence and disdain the world itself. Morris wants to establish as clearly as possible what we know and can say about the world, reality, history, our actions, and interactions. It's the fundamental desire that animates his filmmaking. Truth may be slippery, but that doesn't mean we have to grease its path of escape through philosophical evasions. Rather, Morris argues, it is our duty to do everything we can to establish and support it.

  THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
  This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
  former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
  The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
  use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
  effectiveness. 
  In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
  The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
  but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
  Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact. 
  * Absolutely NO A.I. has been used in the creation of this Poem. 
  Purely 100% inspirational from the Author. * As for all his poems.*
