Paperback. Etat : Good. A retired Episcopal priest, who has had life-long associations with Quakers, interprets Christianity terms of MYSTICISM. He bases his rejection of traditional Christian theology on reasons similar to those of the early Quakers' repudiations of Catholicism, Calvinism and Anglicanism. Scripture, through legends, myths and parables may offer inspiration, but it cannot be taken literally. Doctrines and creeds presume a human-like God dwelling up in the heavens. They claim that Jesus was the son of that God and a human mother. Prayer is expressed as begging that God to manipulate earthly events according to human desires. That all is Olympian mythology. God is within every person, every object and in all of existence. This is called Panentheism. Quakers refer to God within every person as The Inner Light. Mankind, therefore, is basically good, and did not fall from divine grace, needing Jesus as a sacrifice to appease an angry God. God is love. The man, Jesus of Nazareth, was a supreme, human manifestation of divine love. God can be experienced through direct revelation. Through meditation, we are guided in ways to act in love for all others and respect for all existence. That leads to moral demands for justice, equality, inclusion, non-violence and peace. We are empowered by the presence of God within us. God is experienced mystically in many religions and cultures. Faith must be reinterpreted as mystical experiences. The author now is a member of the Religious Society of Friends.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. In a world riddled with disappointment, malice, and tragedy, what rationale do we have for believing in a benevolent God? If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why is there so much evil in the world? John Stackhouse takes a historically informed approach to this dilemma, examining what philosophers and theologians have said on the subject and offering reassuring answers for thoughtful readers. Stackhouse explores how great thinkers have grappled with the problem of evil--from the Buddha, Confucius, Augustine, and David Hume to Martin Luther, C. S. Lewis, and Alvin Plantinga. Without brushing aside the serious contradictions posed by a God who allows incurable diseases, natural disasters, and senseless crimes to bring misery into our lives, Stackhouse asks if a world completely without evil is what we truly want. Would a life without suffering be a meaningful life? Could free will exist if we were able to choose only good? Stackhouse examines what the best minds have had to say on these questions and boldly affirms that the benefits of evil, in fact, outweigh the costs. Finally, he points to Christian revelation--which promises the transformation of suffering into joy--as the best guide to God's. …

Paperback. Etat : Good. Heart of Darknessis based upon Joseph Conrad's own experience in the Congo; "it is," as he remarks in his 1916 author's note to Youth: A Narrative and Two Other Stories, "experience pushed a little (and only very little) beyond the actual facts." Unlike many other editions, this new edition of Conrad's most famous tale focuses on the time in which Conrad was himself in the Congo, while also exploring the differences between his reported experiences and their reshaping in fiction. This edition includes an extensive selection of Conrad's correspondence and autobiographical writing, as well as contemporary accounts of the Congo from other writers. Contemporary reviews situate Heart of Darknessin its literary contexts. …
