Muhammad takes a detailed look at the Islamic traditions regarding Muhammad and lays bare their contradictions, inconsistencies, and incoherence.

You stand on a battlefield, surrounded by an enemy that you've been told doesn't exist.

This book contains sermons given by St John Chrysostom (ca. 349-407), the "Golden Mouth," perhaps the greatest preacher of all time. David Ford selected these particular sermons to illustrate certain dramatic moments in Chrysostom's life, which highlight some of the most important themes of his preaching and elements of his remarkable character and personality.

Religious experiences are usually private though occasionally they are intersubjective, involving multiple individuals at the same time. These group experiences carry extra evidential weight.

Arguing that global communications have fragmented national cultures and that multiculturalism, intended to reduce social frictions, is today reinforcing them, Sacks argues for a new approach to national identity, making the case for "integrated diversity" within a framework of shared political values.

Jews today possess different kinds of legal rights in states around the world; some stem from religious freedom protections, and others evolved from a longer history of Jewish autonomy.

This book is about four cornerstones of modern thought that were put in place by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world.

A child was born two thousand years ago in a little village called Bethlehem. His birth fulfilled over 300 Old Testament scripture verses prophesying this event. Hundreds of people, royal ambassadors, kings, angels, shepherd priests, and countless others were in attendance to herald this event. Over the decades, the details have become obscured. What we celebrate in our churches at Christmas is not close to the actual details that took place. My favorite example is the innkeeper role in the annual play. What was his name? It doesn't matter; he did not exist. He is just a made up character.

Maybe you've heard about the biblical book called "Revelation" which millions of Christians believe contains prophesies about events that will signal the end of the world, with more than a few claiming these signs are already happening!

Sadly, the vast majority have not ever read through it even one time!

Have you ever considered how flawlessly this planet was created? Every single thing you can see, taste, touch, hear, and feel on this earth has a purpose and a place. Everything functions and harmonizes flawlessly. From the ways our bodies work and how they are shaped to the little creatures that are out and about serving a purpose. We have a moon that provides us with just enough light when the sun sets, and the sun is just far enough away from the planet to support life. Why do we assume that God created the world unfairly when there is so much perfection all around us?

For years, she tries to manage her mental health in all the right ways, but nothing seems to work. Until, on a late-night Google search, Veena’s mom discovers Bob Lyon—a sixty-year-old white man in the backwoods of Georgia who claims he can make her want to live again. He calls himself “The True Happiness Company” and, as their relationship progresses, “Daddy.”
