The ability of the world system to conquer and divide has always been based on its efforts to try to divide groups through skewed narratives and warped beliefs. The ultimate agenda of wicked men in power is to separate people because of social class, race, and status.

L’Autore si augura che in questi “luoghi” si torni a parlare seriamente dell’argomento, senza dimenticare la scuola e la famiglia, soggetto primario di ogni formazione.

Kaatryn MacMorgan's principles of Eclecticism, and those of the UEW Tradition of Wicca, have long been studied by those outside of Wicca, and by Wiccans outside of UEW, as an alternative to the salad-bar take-whatever-you-like and damn the consequences spirituality offered by much of the New Age, Occult and Pagan community. This brief monograph serves as a handbook to the ethical practice of Eclecticism, regardless of the faith of the practitioner. To the UEWiccan, this material should be strikingly familiar, but to those outside that community, this book provides an opportunity to study ...

Loving Like Jesus addresses the serious image problem that now confronts the contemporary church. Put simply, the world doesn’t like us much anymore.

Recent years have seen immense, successive physical upheavals – tsunamis, cyclones and earthquakes – in the physical world. Comparable upheavals have occurred also in western society – though the drive to install abortion on demand and voluntary euthanasia, homosexual marriage and the dissolution of the biological nexus of parents and children through commissioned reproduction. The difference is that ideology and legislation have normalized and smoothed the social convulsion as a “natural” development. Now, however, the rightfulness and reality of this socially-engineered tsunami ...
