And Man Created God
Author: Robert Banks PhD
Publisher: Lion Books
ISBN: 0745959644
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
This book addresses one of the oldest questions posed to religious believers: if God made everything, who made God? Most recently levelled by the New Atheists, the question was asked in ancient Greece and has preoccupied religious believers in the centuries since. Here, renowned scholar Robert Banks explores the history of the objection - from its earliest vocalization in the ancient world to its most famous opponents, Freud, Marx, and others. Ideal for anyone with a general interest in new atheism, for those studying religion, or wanting to sort out what (if any) elements of their idea of God are man-made.

Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
Under his pseudonym John F Brinster, noted author of science, philosophy, and religion, has produced an important satirical novel directed to imaginative beliefs in an anthropomorphic god with explanations of the emotional mind and filled with lively characters. It pits the most respected logical mind of Oxford Professor Jeremiah B Cackelry III against the emotional minds of traditional believers. A mysterious Cackelry abduction results in attempts to identify perpetrators through a mathematical code. The religious world challenges Cackelry to a Paris Summit to present his religion, patterned after concepts of the author's former neighbor, Albert Einstein. His loyal assistant, Dr Anne Duchin, a neuroscientist and attractive tennis star, goes to his rescue. Dr Elaine Price, a disturbed lesbian assistant of equal beauty and of pathological belief, attempts to defend her god. Fiendish Dr Anton Schicter enters into an arrangement on the side of religions and plans an untraceable prefrontal leucotomy todestroy the professor's creativity . Meanwhile, a militant Transylvanian cult takes advantage of the fear of Dracula vampires and Frankenstein monsters to protect membership. Cackelry is not atheistic but determined to replace imaginative notions with reality, notions that he believes deter neural development of reason essential for peaceful coexistence. He succeeds in creating his god and the ultimate religion for Man. The setting is Switzerland decades beyond the present. Requested by the new Third Millennium U N with expanded power, Cackelry builds the World University to lead the world out of stagnation. He marries Anne but, upon his mysterious death, she abandons her narrow life to marry his eldest son, Jeremiah Cackelry IV, a banker in Basel. In a society, torn with religious conflict, replete with prejudices, and with beliefs and practices that challenge human reason, this book presents a breath of fresh air.

Cold-Case Christianity
Author: J. Warner Wallace
Publisher: David C Cook
ISBN: 1434705463
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

Who Made God: Searching for a Theory of Everything
Author: Edgar Andrews
Publisher: EP BOOKS
ISBN: 9781783971237
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Dr John Sentamu, Archbishop of York, says Who made God? is 'written in a very lively style and conveys complex subjects in a palatable form'. Novelist Fay Weldon calls it 'thoughtful, readable, witty, wise'. The Principal of London Theological Seminary declares: 'Richard Dawkins has more than met his match.' A book by a distinguished scientist about the existence of God, with chapter headings like 'Steam engine to the stars' and 'The tidy pachyderm' has to be different. It is. Addressing profound questions of science, philosophy and faith with an amazing lightness of touch, Edgar Andrews exposes the pretensions of the 'new atheism', blending incisive arguments with gentle humour. However, his aim is not simply to rebut the aggressive atheism of our age but to provide a logically consistent and altogether more satisfying alternative. His fellow physicists dream of discovering a 'theory of everything' embracing every physical phenomenon in the cosmos. But can there be a theory of everything that also includes the realms of the heart, mind, conscience and spirit? Yes, indeed, as this book shows. It is the 'hypothesis of God', a concept that towers above the barren landscape of atheism and despair.
