Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This wide-ranging book is an intellectual history of how informed readers read their Bibles over the past four hundred years, from the first translations in the sixteenth century to the emergence of fundamentalism in the twentieth century. In an astonishing display of erudition, David Katz recreates the response of readers from different eras by examining the horizon of expectations that provided the lens through which they read. In the Renaissance, says Katz, learned men rushed to apply the tools of textual analysis to the Testaments, fully confident that God's Word would open up and reveal shades of further truth. During the English Civil War, there was a symbiotic relationship between politics and religion, as the practical application of the biblical message was hammered out. Science - Newtonian and Darwinian, as well as the emerging disciplines of anthropology, archaeology, and geology - also had a great impact on how the Bible was received. The rise of the novel and the development of a concept of authorial copyright were other factors that altered readers' experience. Katz discusses all of these and more, concluding with the growth of fundamentalism in America, which broug

Book excerpt: As arguably the most influential voice in American Catholicism, the vision that Scott Hahn offers in his works, read by millions of Catholics throughout the world, is one of the most formative in American Catholicism. His numerous books and public speaking engagements are shaping the American Catholic Church in a uniquely powerful manner. This work demonstrates that the Catholic vision that Hahn claims to be providing his audience is, in fact, always quite different from the one he actually presents. What he coins as Catholic faithfulness is instead a straightforward and damning Catholic fundamentalism. As this vision is delivered to millions of the faithful who look to Hahn as a trustworthy guide to an authentic life of Catholic faith, American Pope acts as a critical analysis of his work.

With modern Bible Scholarship and historical fact this book exposes the outrageous hoax of modern Bible Prophecy, the "left behind" myth, the "rapture" and the "War of Armageddon" falacies, and puts these myths in their proper historical perspective. Has anyone ever informed you that "you are going to Hell", because the Bible said so? Besides being shocked and hurt, did you have a reasonable answer for this person who believed to forsee your eternal destiny? Learn the conclusions of modern Bible Scholarship, and the real reasons why the Bible is not the inerrant, infallible "Word of God" that Christian Fundamentalist use to base their threats on. Pictures and descriptions of the oldest known New Testament Greek manucripts are detailed; The Saint John Fragment, c.125AD pictured in actual size on the front cover, the oldest known NT manuscript fragment. Codex Sinaiticus, the oldest manuscript containing the entire New Testament (dated 350AD), and others among the oldest known New Testament Greek Manuscripts available to mankind today for observation and study, are pictured and described. Mankind does not have the original manuscripts, and the ones we do have differ in their readings, no 2 manuscripts are identical. Differences in these existing manucripts, or "Variant readings" are thoroughly reviewed. The outrageous hoax of modern Bible Prophecy, the "left behind" myth, the "rapture" and the "War of Armageddon" falacies are critically examined and put in their proper historical perspective. Evidence for dates of the original New Testament books which have long since been lost or destroyed, and the 400 year history of the formation of the NT Canon, are examined and weighed against Christian Fundamentalist claims of Biblical inerrancy. Know the Truth about the Bible as you discuss these subjects with your "Born Again" and Christian Fundamentalist friends and family.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late twentieth century, fundamentalism has emerged as one of the most powerful forces at work in the world, contesting the dominance of modern secular values and threatening peace and harmony around the globe. Yet it remains incomprehensible to a large number of people. In The Battle for God, Karen Armstrong brilliantly and sympathetically shows us how and why fundamentalist groups came into existence and what they yearn to accomplish. We see the West in the sixteenth century beginning to create an entirely new kind of civilization, which brought in its wake change in every aspect of life -- often painful and violent, even if liberating. Armstrong argues that one of the things that changed most was religion. People could no longer think about or experience the divine in the same way; they had to develop new forms of faith to fit their new circumstances. Armstrong characterizes fundamentalism as one of these new ways of being religious that have emerged in every major faith tradition. Focusing on Protestant fundamentalism in the United States, Jewish fundamentalism in Israel, and Muslim fundamentalism in Egypt and Iran, she examines the ways in which these movements, while not monolithic, have each sprung from a dread of modernity -- often in response to assault (sometimes unwitting, sometimes intentional) by the mainstream society. Armstrong sees fundamentalist groups as complex, innovative, and modern -- rather than as throwbacks to the past -- but contends that they have failed in religious terms. Maintaining that fundamentalism often exists in symbiotic relationship with an aggressive modernity, each impelling the other on to greater excess, she suggests compassion as a way to defuse what is now an intensifying conflict. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Armstrong's Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life.
