Book Synopsis And Man Created God by : Robert Banks PhD
Download or read book And Man Created God written by Robert Banks PhD and published by Lion Books. This book was released on 2011-04-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses one of the oldest questions posed to religious believers: if God made everything, who made God? Most recently levelled by the New Atheists, the question was asked in ancient Greece and has preoccupied religious believers in the centuries since. Here, renowned scholar Robert Banks explores the history of the objection - from its earliest vocalization in the ancient world to its most famous opponents, Freud, Marx, and others. Ideal for anyone with a general interest in new atheism, for those studying religion, or wanting to sort out what (if any) elements of their idea of God are man-made.
Book Synopsis Did Man Create God? : is Your Spiritual Brain at Peace with Your Thinking Brain? : Including Intelligent Answers to Intelligent Design by : David E. Comings
Download or read book Did Man Create God? : is Your Spiritual Brain at Peace with Your Thinking Brain? : Including Intelligent Answers to Intelligent Design written by David E. Comings and published by Hope Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. David Comings, an internationally renowned physician, human geneticist and neuroscientist, proposes that spirituality is genetically hardwired into a specific part of the brain, is pleasurable, is critical to the evolution and survival of man, and will never go away. It strives to allow readers to develop a rational spirituality in which the fact-based rational brain and the faith-based spiritual brain can live in peace. In an era when politicians are judged on the basis of the strength of their belief in God, when schools are urged to teach Intelligent Design, and when religious terrorists threaten the existence of Western civilization it is critical to dispassionately examine the question - Did man create God? A wide range of issues are examined including intelligent answers to intelligent design; the relevance of modern cosmology to the existence or non-existence of god; the role of genes in spirituality; innate morality, the problem of evil, and many others. Michael Shermer called this the most detailed and up-to-date science ever generated on the subject of religion and suggested it will be the definitive scientific reference on religion for some time to come. This book is for those who have also questioned any part of their faith but treasure their spirituality and want answers that are not hostile to spirituality or religion.

Book excerpt: Under his pseudonym John F Brinster, noted author of science, philosophy, and religion, has produced an important satirical novel directed to imaginative beliefs in an anthropomorphic god with explanations of the emotional mind and filled with lively characters. It pits the most respected logical mind of Oxford Professor Jeremiah B Cackelry III against the emotional minds of traditional believers. A mysterious Cackelry abduction results in attempts to identify perpetrators through a mathematical code. The religious world challenges Cackelry to a Paris Summit to present his religion, patterned after concepts of the author's former neighbor, Albert Einstein. His loyal assistant, Dr Anne Duchin, a neuroscientist and attractive tennis star, goes to his rescue. Dr Elaine Price, a disturbed lesbian assistant of equal beauty and of pathological belief, attempts to defend her god. Fiendish Dr Anton Schicter enters into an arrangement on the side of religions and plans an untraceable prefrontal leucotomy todestroy the professor's creativity . Meanwhile, a militant Transylvanian cult takes advantage of the fear of Dracula vampires and Frankenstein monsters to protect membership. Cackelry is not atheistic but determined to replace imaginative notions with reality, notions that he believes deter neural development of reason essential for peaceful coexistence. He succeeds in creating his god and the ultimate religion for Man. The setting is Switzerland decades beyond the present. Requested by the new Third Millennium U N with expanded power, Cackelry builds the World University to lead the world out of stagnation. He marries Anne but, upon his mysterious death, she abandons her narrow life to marry his eldest son, Jeremiah Cackelry IV, a banker in Basel. In a society, torn with religious conflict, replete with prejudices, and with beliefs and practices that challenge human reason, this book presents a breath of fresh air.

Book Synopsis And Man Created God by : Selina O'Grady
Download or read book And Man Created God written by Selina O'Grady and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of Jesus' birth , the world was full of gods. Thousands of them jostled, competed and merged with one another. In Syria ecstatic devotees castrated themselves in the streets to become priests of Atargatis In Galilee, holy men turned oil into wine, healed the sick, drove out devils, and claimed to be the Messiah. Every day thousands of people were leaving their family and tribes behind them and flocking into brand new multi-ethnic cities. The ancient world was in ferment as it underwent the first phase of globalisation, and in this ferment rulers and ruled turned to religion as a source of order and stability. Augustus, the first emperor of Rome (though he never dared officially to call himself so) was maneuvering his way to becoming worshipped as a god – it was one of the most brilliant makeovers ever undertaken by a ruler and his spin doctors. In North Africa, Amanirenas the warrior queen exploited her god-like status to inspire her armies to face and defeat Rome. In China the usurper Wang Mang won and lost his throne because of his obsession with Confucianism. To explore the power that religious belief has had over societies through the ages, Selina O'Grady takes the reader on a dazzling journey across the empires of the ancient world and introduces us to rulers, merchants, messiahs, priests and holy men. Throughout, she seeks to answer why, amongst the countless religious options available, the empires at the time of Jesus ‘chose' the religions they did? Why did China's rulers hitch their fate to Confucianism, a philosophy more than a religion? And why was a tiny Jewish cult led by Jesus eventually adopted by Rome's emperors rather than the cult of Isis which was far more popular and widespread? The Jesus cult , followed by no more than 100 people at the time of his death, should, by rights, have disappeared in a few generations. Instead it became the official religion of the Roman Empire. Why did Christianity grow so quickly to become the predominant world religion? What was it about its teachings that so appealed to people? And Man Created God looks at why and how religions have had such an immense impact on human history and in doing so uncovers the ineradicable connection between politics and religion - a connection which still defines us in our own age. This is an important, thrilling and necessary new work of history.

Book excerpt: Somewhere along the way, our culture lost its definition of manhood, leaving generations of men and men-to-be confused about their roles, responsibilities, relationships, and the reason God made them men. It's into this "no man's land" that New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson declares his mantra for manhood: play the man. In this inspiring call to something greater, he helps men understand what it means to be a man of God by unveiling seven virtues of manhood. Mark shares inspiring stories of manhood, including the true story of the hero and martyr Polycarp, who first heard the voice from heaven say, "Play the man." Mark couples those stories with practical ideas about how to disciple the next generation of men. This is more than a book; it's a movement of men who will settle for nothing less than fulfilling their highest calling to be the man and the father God has destined them to be. Play the man. Make the man.

Download or read book God written by Reza Aslan and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The bestselling author of Zealot and host of Believer explores humanity’s quest to make sense of the divine in this concise and fascinating history of our understanding of God. In Zealot, Reza Aslan replaced the staid, well-worn portrayal of Jesus of Nazareth with a startling new image of the man in all his contradictions. In his new book, Aslan takes on a subject even more immense: God, writ large. In layered prose and with thoughtful, accessible scholarship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as a remarkably cohesive attempt to understand the divine by giving it human traits and emotions. According to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of nearly every religious tradition. As Aslan writes, “Whether we are aware of it or not, and regardless of whether we’re believers or not, what the vast majority of us think about when we think about God is a divine version of ourselves.” But this projection is not without consequences. We bestow upon God not just all that is good in human nature—our compassion, our thirst for justice—but all that is bad in it: our greed, our bigotry, our penchant for violence. All these qualities inform our religions, cultures, and governments. More than just a history of our understanding of God, this book is an attempt to get to the root of this humanizing impulse in order to develop a more universal spirituality. Whether you believe in one God, many gods, or no god at all, God: A Human History will challenge the way you think about the divine and its role in our everyday lives. Praise for God “Timely, riveting, enlightening and necessary.”—HuffPost “Tantalizing . . . Driven by [Reza] Aslan’s grace and curiosity, God . . . helps us pan out from our troubled times, while asking us to consider a more expansive view of the divine in contemporary life.”—The Seattle Times “A fascinating exploration of the interaction of our humanity and God.”—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette “[Aslan’s] slim, yet ambitious book [is] the story of how humans have created God with a capital G, and it’s thoroughly mind-blowing.”—Los Angeles Review of Books “Aslan is a born storyteller, and there is much to enjoy in this intelligent survey.”—San Francisco Chronicle

Book Synopsis In the Beginning: Did God Create Man Or Did Man Create God? by : Thomas E. Baca
Download or read book In the Beginning: Did God Create Man Or Did Man Create God? written by Thomas E. Baca and published by . This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you believe that science has all the answers to the mysteries of life and the origin of the universe? If you're convinced that life is an accident and occurred spontaneously and that evolution is the key to understanding the beginning of all living things, this book will help you distinguish between opinion and fact. The mysteries of the universe, the solar system, the earth, and all living matter are made clear in either science or scripture. When one removes the philosophies of men and accepts only what is proven or revealed through scripture, the picture is as clear as the sun at noonday. Events happen for a reason, and nothing appears spontaneously without a cause. The journey through time and space, armed with revealed truths and true science reveals the eternal nature of matter and intelligence. The universe is a magnificent display of engineering, design, laws, and organization. Science has proven that life comes from life and in no other way; the anthropological record is a dismal failure in showing connectivity and succession between living organisms. Other than showing that life is interrelated, there is no transitional evidence that connects the various forms of life. The DNA markers show no connection between the apes that walked upright and ma-Adam. Man is the crowning jewel of the creation, displaying God-like qualities in physical, mental, and spiritual attributes. Then how did all that we observe today arise? Did the universe expand from something smaller than an atom and grow into everything that we see? Were Adam and Eve our first ancestors, or did they evolve from lower life forms? Was there a plan that was designed and executed by a Master Creator, or is everything we see and experience the result of random chance? The original spark of life that led to all life on planet Earth came from somewhere. The evidence for why man exists is answered in the scriptures. When opinions are set aside, the facts speak for themselves: Life could not have evolved the way Darwin hypothesized. If man created God, He is a mere idea and the winners in life are the philosophers. If God made man, his existence should be pursued with all the intensity of one's capability. In the Beginning is an in-depth exploration of these age-old mysteries and questions, and provides answers from logical reasoning and factual evidence.
