The author addresses sensitive issues emerging from changing Christianity’s messages to the world and the resulting influence, not only to Christianity itself, but to western world governments. He maintains that Governments and Christianity have both fallen prey to political manipulation of man’s sensitive ego; and the only reason that has happened is because official Institutional Christianity now 'coddles' ego to enlarge its membership. He concludes that gaining control of personal 'ego' is the primary biblical message to living out Christian standards and traces the decline in western culture and the dismantling of free societies to the abandonment of traditional Christianity.

  • The Eagle Returns
    C. Paul Burnham / CPaul Burnham
    The Gospel of John was long assumed to be the work of an eyewitness, usually identified as John, son of Zebedee. More recently, many have judged it the unhistorical product of a ''Johannine community.'' Reconsideration by Richard Bauckham has suggested that the author was a Jerusalem disciple who housed the ''Last Supper.'' This book explores the possibility that he was present...

    del mayor guitarrista de la historia del tango. Con solo percibir el empleo del plectro (la llamada púa de guitarra en nuestro canyengue) descubrimos un sonido y estilo tan particular que terminó por deslumbrar a todos.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
  • Tommaso Traetta and the Fusion of Italian and French Opera in Parma
    George W. Loomis
    In 1759, the court of the Italian Duchy of Parma adopted the inspiration of cultural creators who recommended a reform of Italian opera along French lines. These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...

    Robert Calder
    William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) was one of the most prominent and productive authors of the twentieth century-and his works have been among the most cinematically transformed in history. For more than five decades, adaptations of his plays, stories, and novels dominated movie theaters and, later, television screens. More than ninety individual works were filmed, and for ma...

  • The Paul Factor
    Forrest Davis
    There is a 'Paul Factor' cloud that hovers over the New Testament that deserves at least a conversation. Paul’s 'conversion' to Christianity occurred 37 years after Jesus’ death and resurrection and although Paul never met Jesus in person, he nevertheless went on to personally define Jesus and Christianity for most of the Christian world. On one occasion Paul 'made no bones' ab...

  • Ole Wives Tales
    Forrest Davis
    I define 'Ole Wives Tales,' as a belief or practice that is not completely supported by the bible. Have you ever heard someone say: 'I don’t care what the bible says; I know what I’ve been taught?' If so, you were a witness to an 'Ole Wives Tale' in action. I used the word 'completely' in the first sentence because most of the ole tales rely on excerpts from scripture to suppor...

  • A View from the Pew
    Forrest Davis
    The underlying thesis of 'A View From The Pew' deals with the institution’s presentation of a god that micro-manages one’s life versus a god that allows a person more personal choices, along with personal responsibility. The institution assumes the role of God’s representative to the congregation and teaches them on a subject by subject basis to live and manifest their Christia...
  • A View from the Pew
    Forrest Davis
    There surely must be a thesis out there that deals with the distinguishing differences that often exist between the Church and its attached Institutions, but I haven’t found it. I am attempting to do just that, because I have come to believe that the Church and its accompanying institution are obviously not always the same. Any such critique is probably not wanted by most indiv...
