It Is Right And Just Why The Future Of Civilization Depends On True Religion

Is religion a right given to us by the state? Is it an opium for the masses? Is it private opinion with no role in the public sphere? In It Is Right and Just, bestselling author Scott Hahn and Brandon McGinley challenge our idea of religion and its role in society. Hahn and McGinley argue that to answer questions over religious liberty, justice, and peace, we must first reject the insidious lie perpetuated by secular-liberal culture: that religion is a private matter. Contrary to what political commentators and activists say, religion is not only relevant to justice and law, but is necessary for civilization to thrive. Recover the public nature of true religion, It Is Right and Just argues, and watch as a revolution unfolds.

“People everywhere are struggling to fine the true meaning to their lives in this world. It seems like everything is getting out of control; countries, governments, societies, economies, families, organizations, and in many instances, our faith. The human family seems to be in a perpetual crisis that they cannot pull themselves from. This crisis has made mankind vulnerable to his environment and the natural creation of the earth; and the more we try to solve these problems, the worse the problems seem to get. Who has the authority and ability to bring stability in the earth to solve these problems we are faced with and maintain peaceful and stable environment by which all creation can thrive? Why are we not breaking through? What is it we are doing wrong? Why do we constantly struggle with these questions? Why can’t we find the answers that addressed these questions? In the midst of all of these experiences, the number one question in the heart of many people is: Can there be solutions to these problems we are face?” And the answer is YES! Principles for Living in Dominion (The answers to all mankind dilemmas) was written to answer these fundamental questions and to also take you into the mind of the Creator about who we are and how we were designed to function on the earth. There are 41 principles identified from the word of God that reveal the secret solution to all of our dilemmas. As you read and learn these principles and apply them to your daily living, you will grow and flourish, finding the joy and fulfillment that only life in the purpose of God can bring.”

What is wrong with Scripture scholarship today? Why is it that the last place one should go to study the Bible is a biblical studies program at virtually any university? Why are so many faithful priests and pastors, and the people in their pews, unaware of the centuries-long effort to turn the sacred Word of God into just another secular text? In The Decline and Fall of Sacred Scripture: How the Bible Became a Secular Book, authors Scott Hahn and Benjamin Wiker trace the various malformations of Scripture scholarship that have led to a devastating loss of trust in the inspired Word of God. From the Reformation to the Enlightenment and beyond, Hahn and Wiker sketch the revolutions and radical figures that led to the emergence of the historical-critical method and the pervasive ill effects that are still being felt today.

The relationship between law and chance in the early evolution of life is the guidingtheme of this provocative study. The author explores modern ideas about the origin of life from thestandpoint of philosophy of science, emphasizing the contribution made by information theory.Küppersasserts that all life phenomena are steered by information and that this information is alreadydefined materially in a universal form at the level of the biological macromolecule. The question ofthe origin of life turns out to be the question of the origin of biological informationInformationand the Origin of Life takes up the fundamental problems of whether and, if so, to what extent theorigin of semantic information during evolution can be explained as a general phenomenon within theframework of physics and chemistry. The results could have far-reaching consequences for such fieldsas the philosophy of mind and artificial intelligence.Bernd-Olaf Küppers has long focused hisattention on basic questions of natural science and the philosophy of science at the borders ofphysics, chemistry, and biology. He has been engaged since 1971 in research at the Max PlanckInstitute for Biophysical Chemistry, and from 1979 to 1984 he held lecture courses in philosophy atthe University of Göttingen
