Book Synopsis Through Agnostic Spectacles (Classic Reprint) by : Alexander Kadison
Download or read book Through Agnostic Spectacles (Classic Reprint) written by Alexander Kadison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alexander Kadison was a devout agnostic although he wrote many essays and articles on the topic of religion during his lifetime. The book Through Agnostic Spectacles houses several of his best essays on agnosticism. For those unfamiliar with the term, agnostic refers to a person who claims neither belief nor disbelief in a higher power, or "God." This book begins with Kadison's creed which states "Reason my final arbiter shall be; Blind faith is barred from my philosophy. Nor God nor Christ know I: my deity is Man; my creed bows to no fetish. Neither do I crave salvation in a life beyond the grave: Far better strive mankind on earth to save through word and deed." This creed sets the tone, not just for Kadison's approach to religion, but for the entire text of the book. The line: "Blind faith is barred from my philosophy" alone establishes that Kadison has made it his mission to investigate religion instead of blindly following it. In Through Agnostic Spectacles readers are given a glimpse of this scholar's fascinating point of view on religion. Kadison's beliefs (or lack thereof) represent a subset of religious believers, one which many readers may not have been exposed to prior to this. His arguments for agnosticism run throughout the essays as he tries to sway the reader from blind faith towards a more balanced approach to religion. Overall, the book is an intriguing historic look at religion and individual approaches to the concept of God. An interesting read for anyone who wants to explore religion and personal beliefs that are different than societal norms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Why I Am Not an Agnostic There never has been a period in the history of human thought when the deep questions of life were so fully and universally discussed. With all our progress in this direction, we have not yet created any new moral obligations. No amendments have been offered to the moral law, nor have any been necessary to bring it down to date. With all the Mistakes of Moses those who have attempted to point them out have failed to improve on his laws, disprove his account of Creation, super sede him, or suppress his in uence. While others affect an air, of knowing all with respect to nature and man, they have not answered the questions of life as old as Job, nor brought any new ones to the forum of public discussion relating to man's origin, nature and destiny. Neither have we been furnished with a satisfactory answer to these questions from their standpoint. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Living with a Wild God by : Barbara Ehrenreich
Download or read book Living with a Wild God written by Barbara Ehrenreich and published by Twelve. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed comes a brave, frank, and exquisitely written memoir that will change the way you see the world. Barbara Ehrenreich is one of the most important thinkers of our time. Educated as a scientist, she is an author, journalist, activist, and advocate for social justice. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, she recounts her quest-beginning in childhood-to find "the Truth" about the universe and everything else: What's really going on? Why are we here? In middle age, she rediscovered the journal she had kept during her tumultuous adolescence, which records an event so strange, so cataclysmic, that she had never, in all the intervening years, written or spoken about it to anyone. It was the kind of event that people call a "mystical experience"-and, to a steadfast atheist and rationalist, nothing less than shattering. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, Ehrenreich reconstructs her childhood mission, bringing an older woman's wry and erudite perspective to a young girl's impassioned obsession with the questions that, at one point or another, torment us all. The result is both deeply personal and cosmically sweeping-a searing memoir and a profound reflection on science, religion, and the human condition. With her signature combination of intellectual rigor and uninhibited imagination, Ehrenreich offers a true literary achievement-a work that has the power not only to entertain but amaze.

Download or read book Ecstasy Unlimited written by Laura Kipnis and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Ecstasy Unlimited", Laura Kipnis provides a collection of essays on popular culture, politics, aesthetics, feminism, and postmodernism, along with complete scripts from three of her videotapes. These essays, written from her perspective as a practising artist, in tandem with her videoscripts, are singular in bringing a wide range of theoretical sophistication to film and video studies. Kipnis challenges political and aesthetic orthodoxies. Her interpretations take risks at a number of levels, and do not easily fit into established disciplines and categories. Extensively illustrated with stills from her videotapes, "Ecstasy Unlimited" examines everyday life and popular culture produced by consumer capitalism in ironic - and, at times, very funny - ways. Laura Kipnis is a video artist and theorist whose work has been shown widely in the United States and Europe. Her latest video production is "Marx: the Video". She has written extensively on the politics and aesthetics of postmodernism, feminism, and popular culture. This book is intended for students and academics of media studies, cultural politics.
