Invasion of the Bible Thumpers is a literary roller-coaster ride down the emotional tracks of love, fear, and triumph, artfully positioning modernity against human individualism.

Victor Gold wants his party back. Gold is the former press aide to Barry Goldwater and the former speechwriter and senior advisor for George H. W. Bush. He is incensed that the Neo-Cons and the Evangelical Right have betrayed the ideals of the conservative cause. Now he's fighting back. A Republican insider for 40 years, Gold is ready to tell all about the war being waged for the GOP's soul, the elder Bush's opinion of his son's presidency, the significance of the Democratic resurgence, and how Goldwater would have reacted to it all. Among Gold's explosive disclosures is the truth about Cheney's manipulation of George W., and the chilling, puppet-like role of the President amongst Neo- and Theo-Conservatives. "Entertaining, provocative . . . Mr. Gold is on to something." —The Washington Times "For those disillusioned with the state of the GOP, this quick, uncompromising polemic provides substantial support, along with a large dose of cold comfort." —Publishers Weekly "Like his political mentor Barry Goldwater, Gold pulls no verbal punches in telling the story of how the Bush–Cheney White House has made a mockery of the conservative values it claims to uphold." —Frank Mankiewicz, former press secretary to Robert Kennedy and George McGovern's campaign manager "Victor Gold unleashes a bitter yet comic blend of ferocity and ridicule at the neo-conservatives and theocrats who have taken over his party." —Jules Witcover

Where are you from? Where is your home? Do you miss home? These are questions that Efa E. Etoroma—born in Nigeria—has frequently been asked since moving to Canada in 1978. In this autoethnography, the Concordia University of Edmonton professor examines his views on what home really is and his struggles to feel a true sense of belonging anywhere he has lived. Explained with candor and occasional vulnerability, Home: Reflections on Marginality and Belonging is told from the perspective of a marginalized Black, Christian immigrant, but his story is relatable to anyone who has felt alienated or had a crisis of identity. Efa shares his personal experiences of growing up in post-colonial northern Nigeria, raised Anglican amongst mostly Muslims, and fleeing to the southern region as a child, shortly after the start of the Nigerian Civil War. Then he recounts moving to Canada to attend school but staying upon meeting his future Canadian-born wife. He explores his connection with Black Pentecostal churches as well as his thoughts on grieving, death, and aging away from his homeland. Supporting these experiences, Efa incorporates an abundance of research for a wider cultural and social context. Home: Reflections on Marginality and Belonging is part snapshot of the author’s life—a way of identifying who he is and where he is from—part answer to the questions, “Where are you from” and “Where is your home,” and part exploration of the micro-level contradictions of social change brought about by modern society.

We are conditioned to believe what is visible is more important than the invisible, we couldn't be more deceived; the visible world is less than one percent of our reality. In everyday life, there are creatures we cannot see, demons hiding all around us, in an invisible realm. Humanity lies at the center of an interdimensional conflict as old as time. On one side stand the demons of the great void, corrupting, harvesting, and feeding on human souls. Arrayed against the darkness are the illumine races, beings of light residing in the eleventh dimension. Everyone on earth has a stake in this war. Knowingly or not, no one stays neutral. Humanity's every act shifts the balance in this unending struggle, pushing further into the light—or pulling back into the darkness. In the midst of a messy divorce, Deidre Kollister discovers her sacred role in this hidden, vicious conflict. A sonic warrior of light, Deidre is one of twelve souls who agreed on a perilous mission before birth: to prevent the upcoming soul harvest, a terrible event set to begin with an ancient celestial sign. Twelve extraordinary people stand against a legion of interdimensional demons. The odds are stacked against Deidre and her new allies. If they succeed, the world may finally find peace. If they fail, the ancient war will end with a demonic feeding frenzy and humanity's eternal enslavement.

Matthew 28:16-20 16 But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated. 17 And when they saw him, they worshiped him; but some were doubtful. 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, All authority has been given to me in Heaven and on Earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo I am with you always, even to the end of the age. I pray that this book will give you a better understanding of The Battle of the Three Wills and carry out my charge of the Great Commission. I pray for Gods will here on earth as it is in Heaven. In Christ name. Amen.

A compelling eyewitness account of the recent courtroom drama in Dover, Pennsylvania that put evolution on trial. Journalist Gordy Slack offers a riveting, personal, and often amusing first-hand account that details six weeks of some of the most widely ranging, fascinating, and just plain surreal testimony in U.S. legal history—a battle between hard science and religious conservatives wishing to promote a new version of creationism in schools. During the Kitzmiller vs. Dover Areas School Board trial, the members of the local school board defended their decision to require teachers to present intelligent design alongside evolution as an explanation for the origins and diversity of life on earth. The trial revealed much more than a disagreement about how to approach science education. It showed two essentially different and conflicting views of the world and the lengths some people will go to promote their own. The ruling by George W. Bush-appointed Judge John Jones III was unexpected in its stridency: Not only did he conclude that intelligent design was religion and not science and therefore had no place in a science classroom, he scolded the school board for wasting public time and money. A sophisticated examination of the deep cultural, religious, and political tensions that continue to divide America, The Battle Over the Meaning of Everything is also journalist Gordy Slack’s personal and engaging story of the high drama and unforgettable characters on both sides of the courtroom controversy. Gordy Slack (Oakland, CA) has been writing about science and evolutionary biology for 15 years. He is a regular commentator on KQED, an affiliate of NPR, and his articles have appeared in Mother Jones, Salon.com, Wired, California Wild, the San Francisco Chronicle, and many other publications.

"The Battle of the Classics criticizes contemporary apologetics for the humanities and presents a historically informed case for a decidedly different approach to rescuing the humanistic disciplines in American higher education. It uses the so-called Battle of the Classics of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as a springboard for crafting a novel foundation for the humanistic tradition. The book argues that current defences of the humanities rely on the humanistic disciplines as inculcators of certain poorly defined skills such as "critical thinking." It finds fault with this conventional approach, arguing that humanists cannot hope to save their disciplines without arguing in favour of particular humanities content. As the lacklustre defences of the classical humanities in the late nineteenth century help prove, instrumental apologetics are bound to fail. All the same, the book shows that proponents of the Great Books favour a curriculum that is too intellectually narrow for the twenty-first century. The Battle of the Classics thus lays out a substance-based approach to undergraduate education that will revive the humanities while steering clear of overreliance on the Western canon. The book envisions a global humanities based on the examination of masterworks from manifold cultures as the heart of an intellectually and morally sound education"--

I have written my life story in every detail from a six-foot-by-nine-foot prison cell... I have felt as if I am dissecting a frog in biology class in high school. Many things stand out. Many things are uncovered that have been buried for years. My strengths, my faults, my failures, my desires, my selfishness, and my sinfulness all coming to light, not just to the reader but to myself. Glenn Taylor has had a lot of time to think about the life choices he has made and the consequences of his actions. From behind the bars of a prison floor, he chose to relive those memories with pencil and paper to better understand human nature. After his wife, Phyllis, was brutally murdered, Glenn found solace in drugs and other women. But Glenn knew that there had to be more to this life. He turned to God to find a greater meaning. Even though the other members of his church couldn't see past his physical shortcomings, Glenn knew that God's perfect nature forgives absolutely. Sixty Years in Battle with the Power of the Devil and Still Counting: Part Two recounts Glenn's life from his second wife's murder to two more marriages and finally through his prison sentence for physical assault. Through this memoir, Glenn discovered that the devil is always battling with us, and sometimes it seems as though he is winning. But the war is not yet over. By God's grace we all have the chance to let him take control of our lives and fight the power of evil for us. Pain and sadness can be accompanied by joy and love if we only allow God to bring it into our lives.
