Elements in Religion and Monotheism

Lyons Nathan: God and Being

God and Being

What is the real meaning of 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth'? Where did the idea for the 'Jubilee 2000' and 'Drop the Debt' campaigns come from? And what, really, are the 'Ten Commandments'? In God, Justice, and Society, Jonathan Burnside looks at aspects of law and legality in the Bible, from the patriarchal narratives in the Hebrew Bible through to the trials of Jesus in the New Testament. He explores the nature of biblical law, legal thinking, and legal institutions by setting the biblical texts in their literary, social, and theological context.

Burnside questions the biblical texts from the perspective of an academic lawyer and criminologist and asks what the biblical materials contribute to our understanding about the nature and character of law. He examines much of biblical law and narrative that has formed the basis of Western civilization, while at the same time exploring differences between biblical law and modern legal concepts and legal assumptions. The resulting book is a cross-disciplinary analysis which recognizes the integration of law and theology. 

God, Justice and Society presents biblical law as an integration of instructional genres in the Bible which together express a vision of a society ultimately accountable to God. Burnside seeks to understand both the application of law and legal theory to the Bible and the extent to which biblical law contributes important insights into legal dilemmas in today's world.

God, Justice, and Society

Short bios of seventeen iconic musicians-from Dylan to Van Morrison to Tracy Chapman-showing how popular music influences the search for spirituality and helps reveal the transcendent. Drawing on more than five decades of attentive listening, Jeff Crosby explores how popular music has functioned as a form of "general revelation"-a way listeners encounter questions of God, purpose, justice, suffering, and hope beyond formal religious institutions. Through these engaging artist portraits, he examines how musicians across pop, rock, soul, folk, and R&amp;B have articulated spiritual longing, wrestled with faith and doubt, and offered listeners imaginative resources for navigating their own interior lives. Equal parts memoir, popular music criticism, and spiritual inquiry, the book invites readers to practice "deep listening" as a formative discipline. Each chapter concludes with curated playlists and recommended records that extend the conversation beyond the page. The artists range from globally celebrated figures, including Paul Simon, George Harrison, Marvin Gaye, Pink Floyd, Mavis Staples and the Staple Singers, to influential but less widely recognized voices such as Judee Sill, Mickey Newbury, Laura Nyro, Brooks Williams, and Chris Rea. Each chapter blends cultural history, lyrical interpretation, and personal reflection, showing how these artists' work emerged from particular social, political, and religious contexts while continuing to speak powerfully to contemporary listeners. Crosby's deeply moving reflections suggest that soulful, attentive listening to music, whatever the genre, can open paths toward greater clarity, compassion, and grace.

ICLARS Series on Law and Religion

The concept of human dignity is already embedded in the constitutional architecture of the European Union and throughout the world, but it remains a slippery and elusive concept. In this volume, leading commentators from across the globe address the shift from the monolithic influence of major world religions in the past towards religious pluralism coupled with the increased secularism of civil society. The contributors, drawn from different backgrounds and traditions, explore how the deployment of a nuanced understanding of human dignity can provide a way to maximise religious liberty for all within liberal democracies. Specific consideration is given to the reasonable accommodation of religious practices through exemptions to generally applicable laws, conscientious objection on the grounds of religious beliefs, the interplay between religious pluralism and legal pluralism, balancing religious sensibilities with same-sex marriage, exercising the right to change one's religion, both generally and with a particular focus on data protection, protecting the right to asylum in the light of recent changes in migratory flows and exploring its impact on those enjoying non-theistic beliefs, as well as the complex relationship between the Ukrainian and Russian Orthodox Churches in these febrile times. Through the prism of informed investigation of these matters of specificity, the volume offers readers fresh insights and analysis which collectively contribute to an overall picture of governments in liberal democracies being encouraged and enabled to foster laws and practices whereby pluralism can be encouraged, and human dignity can flourish. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of Law and Religion, Human Rights Law, Constitutional Law and International Relations.

'How to Be a (Happy) Skeptic is the book we've been waiting for! If you've ever recoiled from Stoicism as too austere, this book offers a sensible, socially responsible middle ground to living the life you want. What's more, it is the single best guide now available to the rich body of practical wisdom written by Marcus Tullius Cicero.' -MICHAEL FONTAINE, author of How to Have Willpower'How to Be a (Happy) Skeptic combines intellectual biography with self-help writing of the best kind, showing us how curiosity and doubt-not certainty, or faith-can be foundational for a rich, fulfilling life.' -M. D. USHER, author of Following Nature's Lead'This book is a wide-ranging introduction to ancient Greco-Roman ethics and a swift history of Cicero's life and times. More importantly, it's a compelling guide to living well-to thinking reasonably, to savoring friendship, to building a better society, and to facing suffering with dignity and grace.' -SCOTT SAMUELSON, author of Rome as a Guide to the Good Life'To his talents as a natural writer, expert historian of philosophy, and committed practical ethicist, Massimo Pigliucci here adds the skills of a gifted biographer. His deft interweaving of Cicero's life with an inquiry into how to best live our own makes this book a compelling and spiritually uplifting achievement.' -JAMES ROMM, author of Dying Every Day'Massimo Pigliucci strikes again. No one is better at illuminating the therapeutic power of the history of philosophy, or at showing its continued relevance for knowing what it means to have a life worth living.' -ROBIN REAMES, author of The Ancient Art of Thinking for Yourself: 'With the help of Pigliucci's expert guidance, readers will learn everything there is to know about [Cicero,] one of the most influential figures in Western philosophy, and in the process, they will be rewarded with a renewed understanding of themselves and the world around them.' -VITTORIO BUFACCHI, author of Why Cicero

How to Be a (Happy) Skeptic

Mit diesem Buch möchte ich euch zeigen, wie das Universum unter anderem durch Zahlen mit uns kommuniziert. Jede Zahl trägt eine eigene Botschaft in sich, welche sich durch ihre Verdoppelung verstärkt beziehungsweise durch die Zusammensetzung mit anderen Zahlen verändert. Neben verschiedenen Zahlenkombinationen gehe ich in diesem Buch auch auf die Botschaften hinter Doppel-, Spiegel- und Dreifachuhrzeiten ein. Das Buch sollte euch im Alltag als Nachschlagewerk begleiten und dabei helfen, die Zeichen des Universums bewusster wahrzunehmen und dementsprechend zu deuten.

Independently published

Be Sure Your Sin Will Find You Out &gt;What begins as private moral failure never stays private. It migrates. It multiplies. And eventually, it destroys. In this raw, unflinching work, Curtis Jamal Borum Jr. lays bare his own moral collapse under the crushing weight of everyday American pressures-high rent, impossible grocery bills, and the quiet shame of men who feel they cannot provide. What follows is a cascading series of deceptions, violence, family trauma, and a tragedy that ends on a young man's eighteenth birthday. The author's personal confession is only the beginning. &gt;From these wreckages emerges a bold, carefully constructed legislative proposal: the Intimate Deception Accountability Act (IDAA). This is not abstract theory. It is a concrete federal framework designed to create civil remedies-and limited criminal penalties-for knowing lies about marital status, serious STIs, identity, and other material facts used to obtain sex, cohabitation, or financial support. The Act includes strong privacy protections, high evidentiary standards, anti-extortion provisions, and constitutional safeguards. It asks a hard question: when intentional intimate fraud causes measurable medical, financial, and emotional harm, should the law remain silent? This book is part confession, part cautionary tale, part call to moral and legal accountability. It speaks directly to men who run from counseling, to couples who paper over betrayal, and to a culture that treats trust as optional. It refuses easy redemption and insists that unconfessed sin does not die-it relocates. &gt;Be sure your sin will find you out. The only question is whether you will let it find you before it finds everyone else.

Gesellschaft der Unterschiede

Rassismus ist nicht nur eine individuelle Herausforderung für einzelne Menschen, sondern wirkt auch tief in gesellschaftliche Institutionen und Strukturen hinein. Doch wie erscheint Rassismus in konkreten Kontexten? Die Beiträger*innen liefern einen interdisziplinären Überblick zu Bereichen wie Bildung, Soziale Arbeit, Kultur, Wirtschaft und Justiz.&nbsp;Überdies nehmen sie mit künstlicher Intelligenz und Klimakrise auch Phänomene in den Blick, die bislang eher selten mit Rassismus zusammengedacht werden. Die im Rahmen des Nationalen Diskriminierungs- und Rassismusmonitors (NaDiRa) entstandenen Analysen bieten&nbsp;hochrelevante&nbsp; Erkenntnisse zu den Erscheinungsformen, Kontinuitäten und Folgen von Rassismus in Deutschland.
