Art Lindsley ably demonstrates that faith in Christ is necessarily opposed to and incompatible with the abuses of oppression, arrogance, intolerance, self-righteousness, closed-mindedness and defensiveness. Surprisingly, he shows that it is relativism which often harbors dangerous, inflexible absolutisms.

Is it closed-minded to think there are absolutes in this world--including elements of the Christian gospel? This booklet clearly and logically discusses pluralism and relativism, then goes on to lead readers to determine religious truth for themselves. Author Mark Ashton challenges readers to put Christianity (and any other religion for that matter) to the test--the test for absolute truth.

An educated scientist and businessman, author Ramesh Malhotra seeks to unveil the secrets of nature known to ancient spiritual scholars. In 2013, he published Spiritual Wisdom based on the holy scripture, Bhagavad Gita. And lately, he’s been working to unveil truths buried in the Vedas, composed by spiritual scholars throughout the years before the second millennium BCE and extending into the Late Bronze Age. In the first volume of In Search of Absolute Truth, Malhotra journeys through complex, ancient Rig-Veda mystic mythology, writings that address various aspects of creation preservation and transformation, covering the first five chapters of the Rig-Veda. He shares that finding knowledge buried in holy scripture is like climbing a mountain. Your judgment and perception are constantly refined as you move higher and higher in understanding the Vedas. You come to know absolute truth only when you reach the pinnacle, look around, and see that many hills make the mountain peak of the absolute truth. This follow-up work, In Search of Absolute Truth: Rig-Veda Volume II: Spiritual Involution continues where the first volume leaves off.

Eli Maor examines the role of infinity in mathematics and geometry and its cultural impact on the arts and sciences. He evokes the profound intellectual impact the infinite has exercised on the human mind--from the "horror infiniti" of the Greeks to the works of M. C. Escher; from the ornamental designs of the Moslems, to the sage Giordano Bruno, whose belief in an infinite universe led to his death at the hands of the Inquisition. But above all, the book describes the mathematician's fascination with infinity--a fascination mingled with puzzlement. "Maor explores the idea of infinity in mathematics and in art and argues that this is the point of contact between the two, best exemplified by the work of the Dutch artist M. C. Escher, six of whose works are shown here in beautiful color plates."--Los Angeles Times "[Eli Maor's] enthusiasm for the topic carries the reader through a rich panorama."--Choice "Fascinating and enjoyable.... places the ideas of infinity in a cultural context and shows how they have been espoused and molded by mathematics."--Science

"A SKILLFUL BLEND OF CHARACTER, PHILOSOPHY AND NARRATIVE. . .Formidable personalities embroil themselves in ruthless power struggles that would make a corporate raider blush." --The Washington Post Book World It is 1965, and Charles Ashworth has attained the plum position of bishop of Starbridge, an honor that keeps him in a heady whirl of activity that would exhaust the most seasoned corporate executive. With the invaluable support of his minions and his attractive, unsinkable wife, Ashworth stands against the amorality and decadence of the age--"Anti-Sex Ashworth." He slays his opponents by being a tough, efficient, confident churchman, the torments of his past long since dead and buried. And then the unexpected, the unthinkable, strikes. Suddenly Ashworth finds himself staring into the chasm of all the lies hes been telling himself for years: about his marriage, his children, even his views on the Church. And as he suspects his old nemesis and dean, Neville Aysgarth, of drinking too much, of financial chicanery, of--God forbid--having an affair, Ashworth discovers to his horror that he is tempted to commit the very acts that he has so publicly denounced. . . . "ENTHRALLING. . .Rich, dense, almost indecently entertaining." --San Jose Mercury News "POWERFUL. . .MIRACULOUS." --Booklist (starred review) SELECTED BY THE BOOK-OF-THE-MONTH CLUB
