Book Synopsis Sinners and Citizens by : Jens Rydström
Download or read book Sinners and Citizens written by Jens Rydström and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003-11-15 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sinners and Citizens explores how sexual habits changed in Sweden during its development from an agrarian society into a modern welfare state. Jens Rydström examines the history of homosexuality and bestiality in that country to consider why these sexual practices have been so closely linked in virtually all Western societies. He limns sharply the distinctive experience of rural life, showing that to regularly witness farm animals stirred passions and sparked ideas, especially among young farmhands. Based on medical journals, psychiatric reports, and court records from the period, as well as testimonies from men in diaries, letters, and interviews, Sinners and Citizens reveals that bestiality was once a dreaded crime in Sweden. But in time, mention of the practice disappeared completely from legal and medical debates. This, Rydström contends, is because models of penetrative sodomy shifted from bestiality to homosexuality as Sweden transformed from a rural society into a more urban one. As the nation's economy and culture became less identified with the countryside, so too did its idea of deviant sexual behavior.

In forty-five devotional meditations, The Story of the Word explores the Bible from its beginnings in Genesis all the way to its glorious end in Revelation, showing how Scripture narrates God's story of the world, a story which finds its ultimate meaning and fulfillment in Jesus Christ.

Book Synopsis Sovereign Citizens by : Christine M. Sarteschi
Download or read book Sovereign Citizens written by Christine M. Sarteschi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This brief serves to educate readers about the sovereign citizen movement, presenting relevant case studies and offering suggestions for measures to address problems caused by this movement. Sovereign citizens are considered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to be a prominent domestic terrorist threat in the United States, and are broadly defined as a loosely-afflicted anti-government group who believes that the United States government and its laws are invalid and fraudulent. Because they consider themselves to be immune to the consequences of American law, members identifying with this group often engage in criminal activities such as tax fraud, “paper terrorism”, and in more extreme cases, attempted murder or other acts of violence. Sovereign Citizens is one of the first scholarly works to explicitly focus on the sovereign citizen movement by explaining the movement’s origin, interactions with the criminal justice system, and ideology.

Book Synopsis A Citizen’s Guide to the Rule of Law by : Adis Nicolaidis, Kalypso Merdzanovic
Download or read book A Citizen’s Guide to the Rule of Law written by Adis Nicolaidis, Kalypso Merdzanovic and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our daily lives, the rule of law matters more than anything and yet remains an invisible presence. We trust in the rule of law to protect us from governmental overreach, mafia godfathers, or the will of the majority. We take the rule of law for granted, often failing to recognize its demise—until it is too late. For under attack it is, not only in the growing number of authoritarian countries around the world but in Europe, too. As a citizen’s guide, this book explains in plain language what the rule of law is, why it matters, and why we have to defend it. The starting point is to ask why EU efforts to promote the rule of law in candidate countries have succeeded or failed, and what this tells us about what is happening inside the EU. The authors move on to suggest ways of strengthening the rule of law in Europe and beyond. This book is a call to action in defense of the most precious human invention of all time.
Book Synopsis SAINTS not sinners by : Kevin Don Levellie
Download or read book SAINTS not sinners written by Kevin Don Levellie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians are SAINTS. They are not sinners in the present tense saved by grace. Sinners is what they used to be. The Bible nowhere teaches that a Christian has a sin nature or can be labeled a sinner. This is established through examination of the three terms - sinners, Saints and flesh - from a linguistic view as well as from their context in scripture. Additionally there is a comprehensive search of the scriptures on the nature of the Saint. This will empower every Christian to live what he knows.

Book Synopsis Evangelism and Politics by : John C. Barrett
Download or read book Evangelism and Politics written by John C. Barrett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a fallen world, politics will be a brutal, at times violent, sport. Grandstanding, demonizing, misleading, and lying are the native language of political debate. Violence is historically how political conflicts are ultimately resolved. This fact raises important questions about our faith. Should Christians participate in politics and government? If so, how should we participate? Evangelism & Politics argues that Christians should participate in politics and government but their ultimate goal in doing so is evangelism, not political change. The way Christians participate in politics is therefore generally more important than the specific policies they advocate for. In short, Christian participation in politics should be marked by the fruit of the spirit. At the same time, Christians should not be naive in thinking godly engagement in politics guarantees political success. Ungodly tactics are effective and Christians will be at a political disadvantage when they refuse to use such methods. Nevertheless, Christians should refuse to use them because they see God, not the government, as their ultimate protector and provider and godly engagement in politics as a way of providing an evangelistic witness to society that fulfills the Great Commission.

Book Synopsis Saints, Sinners, and Soldiers by : Jeffrey A. Keshen
Download or read book Saints, Sinners, and Soldiers written by Jeffrey A. Keshen and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first-ever synthesis of both the patriotic and the problematic in wartime Canada, Saints, Sinners, and Soldiers shows how moral and social changes, and the fears they generated, precipitated numerous, and often contradictory, legacies in law and society. From labour conflicts, to the black market, to prostitution, and beyond, Keshen acknowledges the underbelly of Canada’s Second World War, and demonstrates that the “Good War” was a complex tapestry of social forces – not all of which were above reproach.
Download or read book The Enlightened written by Linda Nera and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Source chose a slightly withdrawn but impeccably devoted ten-year old orphaned boy to carry on the fight against the evil rebel angel Ladimer and his league of dark creatures from the doomed planet of Askaran. With help from both holy citizens of the Perfect Place and the Earth Dominion, the young warrior with his assistant Modesto, anonymously goes through every encounter, each one becoming more challenging as his resolve to fulfill his destiny as the Enlightened is constantly tested. The story though steeped with obvious references to Biblical characters and settings derived from several local folklore, skillfully integrates the thrill of adventure with lessons from commonly held religious values. The result is an atypical spiritual journey that promises to inspire even the unreligious.
