Five times a day, close to a billion people turn to the Ka’aba in submission to Allah/God. In the seventeenth century the religion of Islam was revealed to the prophet Mohammad through the Holy Koran. Since then, Islam has spread to every center of the world. Starting with the life of the prophet Mohammed, Islam For Beginners details the historic beginnings of Islam and its spread throughout the Middle East and Africa on to the European and American continents. It describes the major achievements of the Muslim community worldwide and examines the influence Islam has had on other cultures. In keeping with Islamic tradition, the illustrations in the book are rendered in two-dimensional silhouettes and shadows and include the repetitive, extendible patterns representative of Islamic expression.

Do you desire the truth about God, our foremost religions, the purpose of life and the future of our planet? If so, Illuminating the Narrow Gate will guide and empower you to fulfill your destiny of transcending the darkness and embracing an enlightened spirituality. Blessed with astonishing insights and revelations, this revolutionary book heralds a global awakening and the inevitable doom of institutional religion. Volume II contains 15 appendixes that substantiate and enhance the revelations of Volume I. Appendixes A (“Reincarnation”) and B (“Spirit Possession”) present scientific and clinical evidence that demonstrates the reality of those phenomena. The next three appendixes are primarily dedicated to dating the Book of Daniel. Leveraging the breakthrough of Illuminating the Narrow Gate’s paradigm shift, Appendix D (“Redirecting the Debate About Daniel”) decimates the prevailing scholarly conclusion that Daniel’s prophecies were a hoax written in the 2nd century BCE. Instead, this book within a book proves they were penned as advertised in the 6th century BCE while debunking the fundamentalist view that the biblical book is inerrant. The next six appendixes primarily present ancient history that demonstrates the fulfillment of prophetic passages from Daniel. Four of them—Appendix F (“The Beast With Ten Horns”), Appendix G (“Constantine the Great”), Appendix J (“The King of the End Times”) and Appendix K (“Understanding the 69 ‘Sevens’”)—deliver the spine-tingling details of how the future was foretold with stunning accuracy and precision for five centuries after the date when all scholars agree Daniel was on the historical record (160s BCE). Appendix L (“The Catholic Church in the 20th Century”) shows that although the Church no longer champions crusades, sequesters Jews in ghettos, or tortures and kills those who believe differently, its underlying darkness has continued unabated. The majority of this other book within a book details how the Vatican helped Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler gain dictatorial power and then made strategic alliances with them, ignored their pre-war crimes and assaults upon the Jews, sanctioned their predatory aggression upon other nations, and turned a blind eye to the Holocaust. After illuminating the essence of the papal choices before and during World War II, the appendix exposes the criminal nature of the Vatican’s subsequent financial affairs. It shows how the sudden death of Pope John Paul I in 1978 was most likely a blackmail-enabled murder by the Vatican Bank’s underworld partners. After two short appendixes explain passages from Revelation, the book concludes with Appendix O (“The Impact on Islam”). It shows how the book’s insights are also inscribing the writing on the wall for Islam. * You don’t need to purchase Volume II if you only want the book’s core insights and revelations. A PDF document of the end matter published in Volume II (Endnotes, Bibliography, Index, et al.) can be downloaded for free from the book’s website to make Volume I a self-standing book.

Virtually every contemporary Western leader has expressed the view that Islam is a peaceful religion and that those who commit violence in its name are fanatics who misinterpret its tenets. This widely circulated claim is false. Relying primarily on Islam's own sources, "Religion of Peace? Islam's War Against the World" demonstrates that Islam is a violent, expansionary ideology that seeks the subjugation and destruction of other faiths, cultures, and systems of government. Further, it shows that the jihadis that Westerners have been indoctrinated to believe are extremists, are actually in the mainstream.

Lavishly illustrated with over 300 pictures, including more than 200 in full color, The Oxford History of Islam offers the most wide-ranging and authoritative account available of the second largest--and fastest growing--religion in the world. John L. Esposito, Editor-in-Chief of the four-volume Oxford Encyclopedia of the Modern Islamic World, has gathered together sixteen leading scholars, both Muslim and non-Muslim, to examine the origins and historical development of Islam--its faith, community, institutions, sciences, and arts. Beginning in the pre-Islamic Arab world, the chapters range from the story of Muhammad and his Companions, to the development of Islamic religion and culture and the empires that grew from it, to the influence that Islam has on today's world. The book covers a wide array of subjects, casting light on topics such as the historical encounter of Islam and Christianity, the role of Islam in the Mughal and Ottoman empires, the growth of Islam in Southeast Asia, China, and Africa, the political, economic, and religious challenges of European imperialism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and Islamic communities in the modern Western world. In addition, the book offers excellent articles on Islamic religion, art and architecture, and sciences as well as bibliographies. Events in the contemporary world have led to an explosion of interest and scholarly work on Islam. Written for the general reader but also appealing to specialists, The Oxford History of Islam offers the best of that recent scholarship, presented in a readable style and complemented by a rich variety of illustrations.

For centuries, science and religion have been portrayed as diametrically opposed. In this provocative new book, Steve Fuller examines the apparent clash between science and religion by focusing on the heated debates about evolution and intelligent design theory. In so doing, he claims that science vs. religion is in fact a false dichotomy. For Fuller, supposedly intellectual disputes, such as those between creationist and evolutionist accounts of life, often disguise other institutionally driven conflicts, such as the struggle between State and Church to be the source of legitimate authority in society. Nowadays many conservative anti-science groups support intelligent design theory, but Fuller argues that the theory's theological roots are much more radical, based on the idea that humans were created to fathom the divine plan, perhaps even complete it. He goes on to examine the unique political circumstances in the United States that make the emergence of intelligent design theory so controversial, yet so persistent. Finally, he considers the long-term prognosis, arguing that the future remains very much undecided as society reopens the question of what it means to be human. This book will appeal to all readers intrigued by the debates about creationism, intelligent design and evolution, especially those looking for an intellectually exciting confrontation with the politics and promise of intelligent design theory.
