In an age when religious (and other) fundamentalisms have made powerful inroads into the political arena secular humanism has an especially important role to play, not just in promoting its ideas but also in converting those ideas into political action. This is the unifying theme of this thoughtful collection of articles by leading humanists, all of whom are already engaged in putting humanist ideals into practice. The editors and contributors alike contend that the time is ripe to go beyond traditional humanist issues regarding religion and superstition to develop an all-encompassing political platform based on the humanist life stance. This should include both political and economic agendas. Toward this goal the authors in this volume offer real-world humanist solutions born out of progressive politics. Among the topics discussed are: the beginnings of modern political humanism, rediscovering Enlightenment ideals, humanist ethics as a basis for activism, secular humanism and liberal perspectives, separation of church and state, a humanist economics, the role of political humanism in America, identity politics from a humanist perspective, humanism's influence on woman's changing role, gay rights, George W. Bush's antihumanist policies, patriotism and humanism, humanism as an antidote to nationalism and as the backbone of a new United Nations, prospects for a global humanism, humanist movements in New Zealand, Nigeria, and the Middle East, humanist solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, humanism as the foundation for human rights and international peace, policy implications of the humanist commitment to science, and other stimulating topics. Unique in its focus on the need for political, economic, and social action, this outstanding collection contains many new ideas and lays the groundwork for a humanist agenda in the 21st century.
"The Right Way" contains topics of vital importance to the future of America--abortion, school prayer, homosexual marriage, activist judges, terrorism, gun control, one-world government, and many more. (Christian Religion)
All have sinned and all stand at a guilty distance from God. It was God who initiated “come out.” Everyone has to come out from the darkness and into the light of Jesus Christ. Come out and separate yourself from evil deeds and worldly lust and walk in the newness of life in Jesus Christ. In I Was Born Gay, author JonPual McLurék presents a discussion of what gay people say and what the Bible states of marriage and being born gay. She provides Biblical proof of God’s expectations. This discussion: - challenges people to examine what is being asked of them by the LGBT community; - helps believers and non-believers realize the numerous scriptures that support God’s view of the matter and none for the effeminate; - shows it’s not a question of freedom and rights already freely given by God to every man, but it’s a battle of good versus evil; and - provides an understanding that the real problem is not homosexuality, but the ones who allow it to permeate society. I Was Born Gay challenges judges, religious leaders, politicians, effeminates, atheists, and this nation of God-fearing citizens to make a change for the better. The Sanctity of Marriage “Activist judges, however, have begun redefining marriage by court order, without regard for the will of the people and their elected representatives. On an issue of such great consequence, the people’s voice must be heard. If judges insist on forcing their arbitrary will upon the people, the only alternative left to the people would be the constitutional process. Our nation must defend the sanctity of marriage.” –President George W. Bush (January 20, 2004) LifeSiteNews.com
Have you ever wondered . . . . . . what a worldview is, and why it's so important? . . . how liberal and conservative Christians both claim the Bible as their foundation? . . . why different worldviews attempt to solve the same problems in different ways? . . . how two people who formally espouse different worldviews can agree on so many issues? . . . why secularism is just as "religious" as Christianity? . . . why secularism has its own mythology? . . . why secularists want to silence Christianity in America's legislatures, courts, schools and churches? . . . why education is nearly always offered as a solution to society's ills (and why it won't work)? . . . how to formulate positions on contemporary issues not directly mentioned in the Bible? . . . why Christians are often ineffective at influencing culture? Abernathy answers these questions (and many more) by examining the relationship between ideas and their real-world consequences. This foundational relationship is key to understanding secularism, to understanding why its attempts to solve society's problems produce disastrous real-world consequences, and how its ideas infiltrate the biblical principles of even the most committed Christians. Abernathy sifts through the deceptive language of secular orthodoxy and shows how secularism "by any other name" still has tragic real-world consequences. Ideologies such as humanism, postmodernism, and liberal Christianity are exposed as repackaged havens of a failed worldview. Seemingly well-intentioned notions such as "progressive education," pacifist foreign policy, "tolerance," and wealth redistribution are debunked as deceptive myths peddled by an impoverished faith. By Any Other Name shatters the secular barrier erected to exclude Christianity from the marketplace of ideas and lays the groundwork for engaging a culture contaminated by secular mythology.
"Forty years after the publication of Dennis Altman's classic, Homosexual: Oppression and Liberation, this collection of memoir, political reflection and creative non-fiction brings together an exemplary line up of writers, spanning generations that have both shaped and inherited the legacy of gay liberation and its intersections with other social movements."--Page 4 of cover.
