Can you help me? That was a familiar refrain that tore at my heart as I worked the mean streets of northwest Portland. Over and over, the pleas for help came from miserable souls lost in the quagmire of addiction. Then the cry for help became mine as I cried out to the Eternal God for answers for these hopeless souls. Out of a deep desire to bring real rescue to the hopeless, The Transformation Principle was born. The Transformation Principle truly is a journey to freedom. The Transformation Principle material has been a proven guide to deliverance for many across the United States and in other countries. It is a simple, easily understood treatment tool for many of the most difficult problems facing our society today. These problems include-but are not limited to - emotional problems (fear, anger, guilt, poor self-image), as well as addictions (drugs, alcohol, food, sex). The Transformation Principle is a Christ -centered, Bible-based approach that uses Gods Word in a unique way to break the subconscious self-destruct patterns that rob us of healthy self-control in our daily lives. If you have never considered a Bible-based program, please discover for yourself the peace, joy, and confidence that is realized through a right relationship with the One who truly loves you.
Discover the ancient secrets to a life of creative joy, depth, and enhanced well-being... Many ancient cultures throughout human history have understood that the whole point of life is to experience freedom and help others do the same. As a modern Western person, you may have felt a longing inside yourself for this same understanding, but you haven't been sure what your real purpose is or how you can access a more sacred dimension of your life. The problem is that, like most of us in the Western world, you were never taught the right foundation growing up -- the one that ultimately determines every single aspect of your reality, from your health to your finances to your love life. The good news is that once you learn and apply this foundation, your life will take a quantum leap in a new direction, one that is filled with meaning, joy, and awareness. It is never too late to initiate a life of purpose. "The Purpose Principle" is your entry into a new way of being starting right NOW.
Ever since the Supreme Court began enforcing the First Amendment's religion clauses in the 1940s, courts and scholars have tried to distill the meaning of those clauses into a useable principle of religious freedom. In Foreordained Failure, Smith argues that efforts to find a principle of religious freedom in the "original meaning" are futile, but not because the original meaning is irrecoverable. The difficulty is that the religion clauses were not originally intended to approve any principle or right of religious freedom. Rather, the clauses were purely jurisdictional in nature; they were intended to do nothing more than confirm that authority over questions of religion remained with the states. This work will be of great interest to law scholars, lawyers, judges, and other readers concerned with the subject of religious freedom.
A brilliant and thought-provoking examination of the complicated relationship between gay and mainstream culture--and a finalist for the 1998 Lambda Literary Award and the Randy Shilts Award.
This book investigates the legal evolution of the “free soil principle” in England, France and the Low Countries during the Early Modern period (ca. 1500–1800), which essentially stated that, as soon as slaves entered a certain country, they would immediately gain their freedom. This book synthesizes the existing literature on the origins and evolution of the principle, adds new insights by drawing on previously undiscussed primary sources on the development of free soil in the Low Countries and employs a pan-Western, European and comparative approach to identify and explain the differences and similarities in the application of this principle in France, England and the Low Countries. Divided into four sections, the book begins with a brief introduction to the subject matter, putting it in its historical context. Slavery is legally defined, using the established international law definition, and both the status of slavery in Europe before the Early Modern Period and the Atlantic slave trade are discussed. Secondly, the book assesses the legal origins of the free soil principle in England, France and the Low Countries during the period 1500–1650 and discusses the legal repercussions of slaves coming to England, France and the Low Countries from other countries, where the institution was legally recognized. Thirdly, it addresses the further development of the free soil principle during the period 1650–1800. In the fourth and last section, the book uses the insights gained to provide a pan-Western, European and comparative perspective on the origins and application of the free soil principle in Western Europe. In this regard, it compares the origins of free soil for the respective countries discussed, as well as its application during the heyday of the Atlantic slave trade. This perspective makes it possible to explain some of the divergences in approaches between the countries examined and represents the first-ever full-scale country comparison on this subject in a book.
Will innovators be forced to seek the blessing of public officials before they develop and deploy new devices and services, or will they be generally left free to experiment with new technologies and business models? In this book, Adam Thierer argues that if the former disposition, “the precautionary principle,” trumps the latter, “permissionless innovation,” the result will be fewer services, lower-quality goods, higher prices, diminished economic growth, and a decline in the overall standard of living. When public policy is shaped by “precautionary principle” reasoning, it poses a serious threat to technological progress, economic entrepreneurialism, and long-run prosperity. By contrast, permissionless innovation has fueled the success of the Internet and much of the modern tech economy in recent years, and it is set to power the next great industrial revolution—if we let it.
Ornette Coleman's discovery some thirty years ago that his band's music was indeed a "free thing" marked the beginning of a revolution in jazz. From the early free-form experiments, Coleman's dancing blues, and John Coltrane's saxophone cries and sheets of sound, to the brittle, melancholy modes of Miles Davis, vibrant, sophisticated new jazz idioms proliferated. In this critical and historical survey of today's jazz, noted critic John Litweiler traces the evolution of the new music through such artists as Coleman, Coltrane, Davis, Cecil Taylor, Eric Dolphy, Sun Ra, Albert Ayler, Anthony Braxton, and others. He also addresses questions such as: Is Free jazz a rejection of the jazz tradition? Are European folk classical musics altering this essentially Afro-American art? Do the principles of Free jazz provide real emotional liberation for the creative musician? This is a solid, informed guide—for new jazz fans and serious listeners alike—to what has, in many ways, been the most productive and most controversial period in the history of jazz.
In this book G. A. Cohen examines the libertarian principle of self-ownership, which says that each person belongs to himself and therefore owes no service or product to anyone else. This principle is used to defend capitalist inequality, which is said to reflect each person's freedom to do as he wishes with himself. The author argues that self-ownership cannot deliver the freedom it promises to secure, thereby undermining the idea that lovers of freedom should embrace capitalism and the inequality that comes with it. He goes on to show that the standard Marxist condemnation of exploitation implies an endorsement of self-ownership, since, in the Marxist conception, the employer steals from the worker what should belong to her, because she produced it. Thereby a deeply inegalitarian notion has penetrated what is in aspiration an egalitarian theory. Purging that notion from socialist thought, he argues, enables construction of a more consistent egalitarianism.
