{"product_id":"godorg-john-nassivera-9781482764000","title":"God.org: Why Religion Really Matters","description":"GOD.ORG: WHY RELIGION REALLY MATTERS. Much of the Western First World is headed toward a thoroughly secularized form of culture, where any recourse to value systems and guidance from religion is almost completely taboo. This is a very bold experiment. It is fair to ask: Can we in the Western First World survive, if we become thoroughly cut off from our roots? GOD.ORG is a scholarly, yet very readable, examination of these issues--both from an historical perspective and from the perspective of the here and now. CHAPTERS: 1. In the Beginning was the Word and the Word was Information; 2) Looking for God; 3) The Gods of Fields, Rocks, Fields, and Streams; 4) The Gods of Sex and Violence vs. the God of Love and Peace; 5) Brotherly Love, Revolt, Revolution, and Revelation; 6) Humanism, Human Rights, and Indigenous People's Rights; 7) European Enlightenment, Deism, and the Monkey on Darwin's Back; 8) The Religions of Darwinism, Materialism, and the Death of God; 9) Science, Secular Humanism, and Environmentalism; 10) Reformations, Congregationalisms, Church, Mosque, and State; 11) Fundamental vs. Fundamentalism; 12) Why the World needs Rome (and Assisi); 13) What is Marriage for and Why are Church and State Involved? 14) Christianity, Islam, and the Next Generation; Epilogue: A Personal Reflection Life, Death, Afterlife.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Nassivera\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1482764008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781482764000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.75d","brand":"John Nassivera","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44790293037311,"sku":"9781482764000","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_18d43311-c077-4073-96d5-1cdfc2b7a6d0.jpg?v=1707288515","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/godorg-john-nassivera-9781482764000","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
