Showing titles in Agnosticism

This is a passionate but breezy polemic that seeks to expose the harmful nature of religious orthodoxy, whether it be Christian, Jewish, or Moslem, which it contrasts with polytheism, specifically Greek polytheism, altogether a more relaxed system. It is also a forceful plea for the use of reason in pursuit of the biggest questions that confront us. An Ordinary Man’s Letter to God is not an attack on faith, nor does it advocate for atheism. It argues passionately for the use of reason to establish a universal doctrine of tolerance, decency, common sense, and love.

Sin lugar a dudas, uno de los libros más enigmáticos y misteriosos que se han escrito jamás; es el libro de Enoc. De los seis libros que componen la obra original de Enoc, el libro de los vigilantes o de los ángeles caídos es uno de los más interesantes y controvertidos, debido a que contiene narraciones más detalladas que las del canon bíblico (Génesis) en cuanto a la rebelión del grupo de ángeles que vinieron a la tierra, y que mas tarde dieran origen a los inicuos Nefilims.

There is but one form of human enslavement more villainous and more detestable than the chains of the tyrant or the shackles of the despot, and that is the enslavement of the human mind under ecclesiastical tyranny, whose cowering and crouching victims at the crack of the priestly lash are driven from the cultivation of their own intelligence, from the custody of their own thoughts, from the guardianship of their own souls, and who, like whipt dogs, trembling and whining in abject submission at the feet of the oppressor, lick the very hand that wields the lash.

From this unique vantage point, he writes about the most pressing issues of our day, including those related to war, peace, patriotism, race, gender, and church-state separation.

Trying to give religion definition is an almost impossible quest. The concept of faith is a contradiction; it can mean many different things to many different people. All religions preach peace and love and yet perhaps more people have died in its name than any other reason. Such is the conflict of trying to apply limited human laws and rules to divinity. What you are about to discover in this book will dramatically change the way you think and feel about everything in your life.

Our species is angry on a deep level. We know something has been wrong for a long time. We are tired of being thrown the scraps. This is primal, guttural; the scream of an exhausted humanity who will not take no for an answer. Who refuse to be duped any longer. It is the voice of reason and the shout of change! This audiobook is a reminder of who we are in the natural world and a call to stand up and be proud to be human without the spiritual story.

This book may allow some people to overcome their fear of the vengeful, cruel God they were taught to believe in as children. It may allow more people to speak out when they hear religious leaders use their God to incite people to harm others. It may even allow more of us to admit, "I could be wrong."

Throughout the ages believers have been persecuted: usually for believing in the "wrong" God. So have non-believers who have denied the existence of God as superstitious rubbish. Today it is the agnostics who are given a hard time. They are scorned by believers for their failure to find faith and by atheists for being hopelessly wishy-washy and weak-minded. But John Humphrys is proud to count himself among their ranks. In this audiobook he takes us along the spiritual road he himself has travelled.
