From the intellectual mind of Julian Huxley, a renowned evolutionary biologist and a leading figure in the mid-20th century evolutionary synthesis, comes a groundbreaking exploration into the world of faith: Religion Without Revelation.

What do you believe? Is certainty possible? What is existence? Why do we think? Who is God? How can we live? Is there meaning? What is my purpose? Are any morals absolute? Who am I? Philosophy is the study of fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, truth, values, and mind using reason and logic. But what if reason and logic don't give me conclusive answers to my questions? Can I retreat into doubt and scepticism? Or do I find myself forced into making decisions and committing to action? We are human. We have no choice but to think. To select. To believe. This book doesn't try to ...

One of the Dalai Lama's most striking qualities is his genuine interest in Western scientific and social thought. He firmly believes that if Buddhism is to have relevance today, it must be flexible and dynamic, able to take in new ideas and adapt to new situations. In Worlds in Harmony, he combines timeless Buddhist teachings with modern Western psychological theory to address such diverse issues as environmental destruction, political oppression, and the application of Buddhist principles in the West.

Philosopher Malcolm Muggeridge stated in the Pascal Lectures, University of Waterloo, that "The theory of evolution...will be one of the great jokes in the history books of the future. Posterity will marvel that so very flimsy and dubious an hypothesis could be accepted." This report exposes the lies of Darwinism. The authors make a case strictly on how Darwinism stands up under the microscope of real science.

Stephen Asma argues that, like art, religion has direct access to our emotional lives in ways that science does not. No theorist of religion has failed to notice the importance of emotions in spiritual and ritual life, but truly systematic research has only recently delivered concrete data on the neurology, psychology, and anthropology of the emotional systems. This very recent "affective turn" has begun to map out a powerful territory of embodied cognition. Why We Need Religion incorporates new data from these affective sciences into the philosophy of religion.

A spoof Christian apologetics handbook showing the standard techniques and tricks used to win converts for Jesus.

Life is a subject that we many times take for granted. There are so many complexities manufactured out of the issue of when life begins and how life started that it can be confusing. It is my hope that this book simplifies the issue and directs the reader to the truth about the precious gift of life that we have been given. I write for the purpose of helping others. My writing helps me find peace and purpose. If the words in this book help just one other person (other than myself!) then I have achieved my objective. We must do everything we can to support human dignity and protect the ...

Every day, powerful new telescopes and probes help us discover wonders hidden from the time of creation.

Part I of this book discusses how we are all becoming increasingly disconnected from one another and ourselves in a climate of moral relativism where the absolute standards of reality existing in unwavering universal laws that follow logical mathematical principles have given way to a haphazard morality of what feels right do it. This self-centered sense of morality naturally translates into each person creating their own self-centered moral code. Sometimes our moral code matches the code our fellow human beings follow and sometimes it does not. When it does not, clashes occur and people ...

In an age whereby, previous constructions of identity, meaning and purpose, largely proposed by religion and later discredited by science, continue to lose ground, this book re-...

Science is in trouble. Real questions in desperate need of answers—especially those surrounding ethnicity, gender, climate change, and almost anything related to “health and safety”—are swiftly buckling to the fiery societal demands of what ought to be rather than what is. Can true, fact-based discovery be redeemed? In Science in an Age of Unreason, legendary professor of psychology and biology, John Staddon, unveils the identity crisis afflicting today’s scientific community, and provides an actionable path to recovery.

In Signposts to God, particle physicist Peter Bussey introduces listeners to the mysteries of modern physics and astronomy. Authored in clear, accessible prose, Bussey provides a primer on topics such as the laws of nature, quantum physics, fine-tuning, and current cosmological models. Bussey argues that, far from ruling out a divine creator, modern physics and astronomy present us with compelling signposts to God. The more we know about the cosmos and our presence in it, the more plausible belief in God becomes.
