Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Bancroft Prize-winning historian and legal expert Michael Klarman here offers an illuminating and engaging account of modern litigation over same-sex marriage. After looking at the treatment of gays in the decades after World War II and the birth of themodern gay rights movement with the Stonewall Rebellion in 1969, Klarman describes the key legal cases involving gay marriage and the dramatic political backlashes they ignited. He examines the Hawaii Supreme Court's ruling in 1993, which sparked a vast political backlash--with more than 35 states and Congress enacting defense-of-marriage acts--and the Massachusetts decision in Goodridge in 2003, which inspired more than 25 states to adopt constitutional bans on same-sex marriage. Klarman traces this same pattern--court victory followed by dramatic backlash--through cases in Vermont, California, and Iowa, taking the story right up to the present. He also describes some of the collateral political damage caused by court decisions in favor of gay marriage--Iowa judges losing their jobs, Senator Majority Leader Tom Daschle losing his seat, and the possibly dispositive impact of gay marriage on the 2004 presidential election. But Klarman also notes several ways in which litigation has accelerated the coming of same-sex marriage: forcing people to discuss the issue, raising the hopes and expectations of gay activists, and making other reforms like civil unions seem more moderate by comparison. In the end, Klarman discusses how gay marriage is likely to evolvein the future, predicts how the U.S. Supreme Court might ultimately resolve the issue, and assesses the costs and benefits of activists' pursuing social reforms such as gay marriage through the courts"--

Book Synopsis DARE TO BE DIFFERENT! by : Idongesit Okpombor
Download or read book DARE TO BE DIFFERENT! written by Idongesit Okpombor and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: -Inferior men are made superior in the interior. -The congregation can never rise above the pulpit and the pulpit can never rise above the closet. -If the church were a University of Hypocrisy, a greater number of men would be Professors. DARE TO BE DIFFERENT is meant to take us back to Bible FAITH. It is meant to “Stoutly Defend” Bible Christianity in the face of awful deviations. It is meant to remind us the truths of God’s Word which should never “change through the years”. It is meant to point both pastor and member back to the Old Rugged Cross. At some point it may hurt; at another it may challenge, but ultimately it will rekindle the true fire for the cause of JESUS and His kingdom alone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the right’s most gifted and astute journalists” offers a provocative analysis of how the Civil Rights Act drove us toward today’s culture wars (The New York Times Book Review) Christopher Caldwell has spent years studying the liberal uprising of the 1960s and its unforeseen consequences. His conclusion: even the reforms that Americans love best have come with costs that are staggeringly high—in wealth, freedom, and social stability—and that have been spread unevenly among classes and generations. Caldwell reveals the real political turning points of the past half-century, taking you on a roller-coaster ride through Playboy magazine, affirmative action, CB radio, leveraged buyouts, iPhones, Oxycotin, Black Lives Matter, and internet cookies. In doing so, he shows that attempts to redress the injustices of the past have left Americans living under two different ideas of what it means to play by the rules. The Age of Entitlement ”is an eloquent and bracing book, full of insight” about how the reforms of the past fifty years gave the country two incompatible political systems—and drove it toward conflict (New York magazine).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Altar at Home: Prayers for the Family and the Closet Whatever diversity of Opinion may exist as to the preference between written and unwritten prayers in the public worship of the Church, ancient and extensive usage has assigned a great value to prepared forms of devotion for the Family and the Closet. Even those who can readily express their thanksgivings and requests in their own words oftentimes gratefully resort to this help. Amid the cares, fatigues and varying moods, of daily life, the well-chosen and hallowed words of a Manual of Prayer assist in composing their spirit, and suggest many topics of devout reflection, which might not otherwise have been presented to their minds.
