Download or read book Divorce vs. Democracy written by G. K. Chesterton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-03-30 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by G. K. Chesterton was originally published in 1916. Gilbert Keith Chesterton was born in London in 1874. He studied at the Slade School of Art, and upon graduating began to work as a freelance journalist. Over the course of his life, his literary output was incredibly diverse and highly prolific, ranging from philosophy and ontology to art criticism and detective fiction. However, he is probably best-remembered for his Christian apologetics, most notably in Orthodoxy (1908) and The Everlasting Man (1925). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Book excerpt: On this question of divorce I do not profess to be impartial, for I have never perceived any intelligent meaning in the word. I merely (and most modestly) profess to be right. I also profess to be representative: that is, democratic. Now, one may believe in democracy or disbelieve in it. It would be grossly unfair to conceal the fact that there are difficulties on both sides. The difficulty of believing in democracy is that it is so hard to believe-like God and most other good things. The difficulty of disbelieving in democracy is that there is nothing else to believe in. I mean there is nothing else on earth or in earthly politics. Unless an aristocracy is selected by gods, it must be selected by men. It may be negatively and passively permitted, but either heaven or humanity must permit it; otherwise it has no more moral authority than a lucky pickpocket. It is baby talk to talk about "Supermen" or "Nature's Aristocracy" or "The Wise Few." "The Wise Few" must be either those whom others think wise-who are often fools; or those who think themselves wise-who are always fools.Well, if one happens to believe in democracy as I do, as a large trust in the active and passive judgment of the human conscience, one can have no hesitation, no "impartiality," about one's view of divorce; and especially about one's view of the extension of divorce among the democracy. A democrat in any sense must regard that extension as the last and vilest of the insults offered by the modern rich to the modern poor. The rich do largely believe in divorce; the poor do mainly believe in fidelity. But the modern rich are powerful and the modern poor are powerless. Therefore for years and decades past the rich have been preaching their own virtues. Now that they have begun to preach their vices too, I think it is time to kick.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book captures the Indian state's difficult dialogue with divorce, mediated largely through religion. By mapping the trajectories of marriage and divorce laws of Hindu, Muslim, and Christian communities in post-colonial India, it explores the dynamic interplay between law, religion, family, minority rights and gender in Indian politics. It demonstrates that the binary frameworks of the private-public divide, individuals versus group rights, and universal rights versus legal pluralism collapse before the peculiarities of religious personal law. Historicizing the legislative and judicial response to decades of public debates and activism on the question of personal law, it suggests that the sustained negotiations over family life within and across the legal landscape provoked a unique and deeply contextual evolution of both, secularism and religion in India's constitutional order. Personal law, therefore, played a key role in defining the place of religion and determining the content of secularism in India's democracy.

He wrote on philosophy, ontology, poetry, plays, journalism, public lectures and debates, literary and art criticism, biography, Christian apologetics, and fiction, including fantasy and detective fiction. Chesterton is often referred to as the "prince of paradox". Whenever possible, Chesterton made his points with popular sayings, proverbs, and allegories—first carefully turning them inside out. Chesterton is well known for his reasoned apologetics and even some of those who disagree with him have recognized the universal appeal of such works as Orthodoxy and The Everlasting Man. Chesterton, as a political thinker, cast aspersions on both progressivism and conservatism, saying, "The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to prevent the mistakes from being corrected." Chesterton routinely referred to himself as an "orthodox" Christian, and came to identify such a position more and more with Catholicism, eventually converting to Roman Catholicism from High Church Anglicanism. George Bernard Shaw, Chesterton's "friendly enemy" said of him, "He was a man of colossal genius".

Book Synopsis An American Divorce by : J. N. Welch
Download or read book An American Divorce written by J. N. Welch and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-02 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIRD EDITION Is the United States facing a societal "divorce"? Roughly two thirds of Americans believe another civil war could occur in today's political climate. And it is easy to understand why. Three impeachments in the last four presidencies. A weak US presidency. A partisan divide perhaps greater than that of the 1860s. With perhaps impeccable timing, this Wall Street Journal best-selling author contemplates an exit strategy for what has become a broken democracy. From the benign to the revolutionary, this provocative book moves beyond the question of "why" to the more important question of "how" the United States can move beyond the political and cultural dysfunction that has divided the country to the point of democratic paralysis. Is America inherently racist? Or has academia been complicit in brainwashing millions of Americans into believing the United States should only be judged from the context of guilt and privilege? Do the "Democrat Socialists" really care about blue-collar workers; or are today's leftist elites secretly pursuing a socialist/globalist utopia? Arguing the emergence of political actors like Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders is no democratic accident, this anonymous author contemplates the pros and cons of taking America to the brink to defeat a stealth cancer that hides behind the slogans of social justice, tolerance, and equity. Borrowing from leftist radicals like Alinsky and Marx, this book provides a mass-movement roadmap to those Black, Brown, and White Americans who desperately hope to move beyond the false allure of identity politics and cancel culture. From contemplating whether a new Republican Party can break today's political gridlock...to openly discussing the radical idea of a geographical breakup of the United States of America, An American Divorce seeks to chart a new course for a country in great peril. In what could best be described as the ultimate game of revolutionary poker, this author boldly goes beyond the sweeping arc of political correctness to tackle questions that are rarely debated in academia or the mainstream media: Can a revitalized pro-America, pro-worker, pro-business, and anti-swamp Republican Party have the power to break the partisan gridlock in Washington D.C.? What possible mass-movement role does an ex-president Trump have in our divorce discussion? Should both Republicans and Democrats consider a constitutional convention that outlines the pros and cons of a Brexit-like, geographical breakup--to 330 million Americans? Or will both sides continue traveling down an "ugly" divorce path that could ultimately be decided by an undemocratic set of circumstances? Republicans may be surprised-but the author doesn't want to destroy everyday Democrats. Nor is this book based on the ignorant and primitive idea of dividing the United States by race. Rather, An American Divorce targets the Marxist thought police--social science academics and radical leftist agitators who use the vehicle of social justice to pursue an intellectual fantasyland that will never exist. Released as the nation is reeling from a global pandemic, political/economic uncertainty, and racial unrest, this book is a must-read for those Americans who hope to move beyond the hate, division, and dysfunction that we today call the United States of America. Controversial, provocative, and revolutionary, An American Divorce is urgent reading for our troubled times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the autumn of 1890, I was leaving the Casino at Monte Carlo in company with an eminent Divine, whose name, for obvious reasons, I suppress. We were engaged in an interesting discussion on the subject of Demons, he contending that they were an unnecessary, not to say prejudicial, element in our civilisation, an opinion which, needless to say, I strongly opposed. Having at length been so fortunate as to convince him of his error, I proceeded to furnish him with various instances in which Demons have proved beneficial to mankind, and at length he exclaimed. “My dear fellow, why do you not write a book about . . .” Here he coughed. The idea took so strong a hold upon me, that from that time I have taken more careful note of the habits and appearance of such specimens as come in my way, and my studies have resulted in the production of this little work, which will, I trust, prove not uninteresting to the youthful seeker after knowledge.

Book Synopsis The Quotable Chesterton by : Kevin Belmonte
Download or read book The Quotable Chesterton written by Kevin Belmonte and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2010-12-29 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: G. K. Chesterton was a literary giant of his age. With an exceptional intellect, he wrote about history, politics, economics, philosophy, social and literary criticism, and theology. He published essays, novels, biographies, short stories, and poetry, and the Christian classics Heretics, Orthodoxy, and The Everlasting Man, which C. S. Lewis credits as instrumental in his conversion to Christianity. With much of his finest material out of print or hard to find, modern readers have long needed a standard collection of his best thoughts. Kevin Belmonte’s The Quotable Chesterton brings them to you arranged alphabetically by topic, with complete original source documentation. There are entries from Adventure to Cheese, Politics to Émile Zola, interspersed with essays about Chesterton’s life and times. Hundreds of passages drawn from Chesterton’s fiction, poetry, essays, and other books showcase a man the New York Times hailed as a “brilliant English essayist” and George Bernard Shaw called a “colossal genius.” Endorsements: “There isn’t a writer who gets me pacing and smiling and thinking like G.K. Chesterton. His every paradigm shift is an adjustment to my mental compass, and so a gift.” —DONALD MILLER, author of the New York Times bestsellers A Million Miles in a Thousand Years and Blue Like Jazz “Over the years, I have delivered thousands of lectures, speeches, talks, and sermons; I have written hundreds of articles, essays, books, and reviews; it is an exceedingly rare occasion when any of them should fail to contain the words ‘Chesterton once said.’ Kevin Belmonte here reveals that fountain of wit, wisdom, and wonder, G.K. Chesterton, in all his irresistibly, irrepressibly, quotable splendor.”—GEORGE GRANT, Pastor, Parish Presbyterian Church, and Chancellor, New College Franklin
