Showing titles in Atheism

Über Gott reden ja viele, wenngleich die meisten nur glauben, etwas über den Allmächtigen zu wissen. Und die, die etwas zu wissen glauben, Religionswissenschaftler, behaupten, Naturwissenschaftler könnten über Gott sowieso nichts sagen. Die drei Autoren dieses Hörbuchs treten den Gegenbeweis an: der Astrophysiker Harald Lesch, der an der Hochschule der Jesuiten Philosophie unterrichtet, der Psychiater Manfred Spitzer, dem Wahnvorstellungen nicht fremd sind, und der Intellektuellste unter den Kabarettisten, Günther "Gunkl" Paal.

Inside, you'll discover three controversial discussions: "Religion Is a Dangerous Addiction", "Is Religion a Genetic Flaw?", and "Coming Out of the Atheist Closet".

The deepest riddle of Christianity is only this: How could anyone possibly believe it? In answer to this question, The Convert tells the true story of one man's punishing journey across the extremes of human experience, through fire and heartbreak, passion and betrayal, prison and madness, to the very brink of belief. This is the story of one man and one moment - the moment of God's triumph or sanity's defeat.

The Tabernacle and Its Teachings is a subliment to February. March 1882 Zion' Watchtower.

Atheism is everywhere—in classrooms, on social media, in the workplace, and in the lives of friends and family. It claims to be the voice of reason and science, yet it cannot account for life’s deepest questions: Why are we here? What is right and wrong? What is the truth? This book equips Christians to answer atheism with clarity, confidence, and compassion. Drawing directly from Scripture and using sound reasoning, it exposes the weaknesses of unbelief while presenting the consistent, hope-filled worldview of biblical Christianity. You will learn how to respond to common objections, ...

Un testo strutturato come un dialogo con alcune delle menti più grandi della storia umana: Baruch Spinoza, Sant'Agostino d'Ippona, Albert Einstein, Kurt Gödel e San Tommaso d'Aquino. Affronta alcune delle domande che hanno sfidato la ragione umana fin dall'inizio dei tempi: • Come si può dimostrare l'esistenza di Dio? • Come e perché è emerso l'Universo? • Cos'è la vita? • Perché il male esiste nel mondo? • Qual è il significato della vita? • Qual è lo scopo ultimo dell'esistenza umana? Con un approccio meticoloso e profondo, l'opera intreccia il rigore del pensiero ...

Más allá de religiones y dogmas, ¿sabes que te han dado la capacidad innata de conocer fácilmente muchas maravillas sobre Dios?, ¿sabes usar correctamente ese poder? Dios es, sin duda alguna, el misterio más relevante y profundo del que podemos ocuparnos. Pero ¿cuáles son los principales argumentos lógicos que pueden formularse en favor de su existencia?, ¿son realmente consistentes?, ¿pueden resistir las respuestas de la crítica atea?, ¿no desaloja la ciencia a Dios?, ¿quién creó a Dios si Él creó todas las cosas?, ¿se basta el universo a sí mismo para explicar su ...

In 2011, a minor news story made headlines and turned Lori Arnold McFarlane’s comfortable life upside down. Residing in Scotland, her life seemed pretty close to perfect – a beautiful family, wonderful friends, a breath-taking view of the Clyde, and a meaningful relationship with Jesus Christ. An evangelical Christian and a Calvinist, McFarlane’s deepest desire was to glorify and enjoy her God forever. But when a tiny group of religious fanatics began preaching doom and gloom and the End of Days, she found herself suddenly and unwillingly questioning everything she’d ever believed. ...

ID is not a problem for science; rather science is a problem for ID. This book shows why. It exposes the fallacy of Intelligent Design by showing that, when examined in detail, biological systems are anything but intelligently designed. They show no signs of a plan and are quite ludicrously complex for whatever can be described as a purpose. The Intelligent Design movement relies on almost total ignorance of biological science and seemingly limitless credulity in its target marks. Its only real appeal appears to be to those who find science too difficult or too much trouble to learn yet ...

"Hört mich! Denn ich bin der und der! Verwechselt mich vor allem nicht!"(Friedrich Nietzsche: Ecce Homo)Erst für spätere Generationen hat Nietzsche eine Offenheit, ein wirkliches Interesse und Verständnis erwartet: "Wie dürfte ich mich mit denen verwechseln, für welche heute schon Ohren wachsen", schrieb er und wir fragen: Ist es nun an der Zeit für ein solches Verstehen und bietet das Medium Hörbuch womöglich den Königsweg für das "Wachsen der Ohren", um das Denken Nietzsches mit all seinen fruchtbaren Widersprüchen für das Leben zu gewinnen?

The most important event of my life occurred during July, 1969, when as an atheist I had an abrupt and totally unexpected encounter with the living God of the universe. Believing, I was thus born again from spiritual death and became by God's grace a 'new creation.' Since then, I have been involved in a number of ministries, traveled much, lived in various countries. My life has been exciting, though not without sadness and tragedy. When I encountered God, I was a cynical, hard-bitten, sarcastic sophist. By His wonderful grace, He has made me (a hopefully productive) member of His kingdom. ...

The Necessity of Atheism was first published by Shelley in 1811. In 1813 he printed a revised and expanded version of it as one of the notes to his poem Queen Mab. Shelley evinced a searing contempt for organized religion but maintained a belief in a benevolent non-sectarian World Spirit.

This Will Make an Atheist Shit Their Pants is not your average spiritual book. It's short, it's sharp, and it doesn't waste your time. It won't try to convert you. It won't ask you to believe anything. It just lays the cards on the table and lets the chips fall where they may. It's part comedy, part cosmic wake-up call, and all JJ. This book is for anyone who's ever looked up at the sky and thought, "Wait... is this all there is?" It's for the ones who know there's something more but don't quite have the words for it yet. Spoiler Alert: You're not crazy. You're just waking up.

Who does NOT seek love, or more abundant love — that glue that binds us to others, that makes us matter to each other, filling, albeit incompletely, the hole where loneliness otherwise abides? Who does NOT accept, albeit with dread, the inescapable truth that they will die one day, that their trip will be over, that their personal horizon will be breached? Who does NOT wonder, amid the hubbub of daily chores, what it all means, what is the big picture beyond local mundanity? Religion works for some. Others—the more scientifically informed among us—recognize the shortcomings of ...

Starting by sharing "My Personal Journey to Atheism," the author then employs the novel poetic form of haiku quintets to concisely describe mind-expanding bits of science (fact, not fiction, mostly cosmology) and its bond to secularism. Skeptics will enjoy "Ode to Scientism" and its rejection of supernaturalism, followed by "Debunking Creationism with Science and Reason." The book concludes with a survey of quotes by famous scientists about their atheism.

In this short book I tell of my spiritual experiences that shape my knowledge that God is real, omnipresent, and that He listens to us. But we have a responsibility to seek Jesus as our Savior. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life."
