The 9/11 al-Qaeda attacks on the U.S. in 2001 shocked the world, not only because of their viciousness but also because of the disillusionment that "holy wars" are a phenomenon of the past. "Holy wars," rather, are a reality in today's world too, threatening global peace like never before. In this volume Christoffer Grundmann pleads for the cultivation of religious literacy and interreglious dialogue. First, he attempts to regain an adequate understanding of religion by showing the incompatibility of abstract concepts of religion with religions actually lived. So Grundmann suggests perceiving religion as the lived relationship toward an Ultimate. Given that interreligious dialogue is communication about diverse ways of relating to the Ultimate, the religiously embedded, primarily Jewish philosophy of encounter and dialogical thinking--with its personalistic nature--comes into focus here as uniquely suited for such communication. Even though interreligious encounter implies risk, Christians cannot but engage in it fearlessly, says Grundmann, because they trust that the risen Christ will reveal himself anew as the one he really is, wherever and whenever Christians take part in dialogue with people of other faiths.

For thousands of years, the faithful have honed proselytizing strategies and talked people into believing the truth of one holy book or another. Indeed, the faithful often view converting others as an obligation of their faith—and are trained from an early age to spread their unique brand of religion. The result is a world broken in large part by unquestioned faith. As an urgently needed counter to this tried-and-true tradition of religious evangelism, A Manual for Creating Atheists offers the first-ever guide not for talking people into faith—but for talking them out of it. Peter Boghossian draws on the tools he has developed and used for more than 20 years as a philosopher and educator to teach how to engage the faithful in conversations that will help them value reason and rationality, cast doubt on their religious beliefs, mistrust their faith, abandon superstition and irrationality, and ultimately embrace reason.

Why is premarital sex forbidden by religion? Why is marriage the worst life-decision a man can make today? How is an idealistic Romantic Love destroying modern churches? Are female imperatives assimilating patriarchal religions? Why are so many religious men confused about masculinity? What's causing men to abandon religion? Why is pornography an "addiction" for religious men? Are Atheists 'religious' about finding love? Can Red Pill awareness and religious conviction coexist? Will there be a One-World Religion? The Rational Male(R) - Religion is an exploration of human intersexual dynamics and their influence on spiritual belief, religion and social values. In this 4th book of the Rational Male series author, Rollo Tomassi, connects the dots between human beings' evolved mating imperatives and the spiritual beliefs spawned by them that still influence society in the data age. It is a Red Pill look under the hood at the roots of men and women's "need to believe" in love, God and the metaphysical to solve our mating imperatives.Are Old Order beliefs hindering our progress in today's data-driven New Age of Enlightenment? Since 2000, global access to information has exploded. Like the Gutenberg Press in Renaissance Europe, the internet, technology and global communication has given rise to a new age of enlightenment that a global society is only beginning to acknowledge. For better or worse, this new information awakening is explaining and challenging our old investments in faith, tradition, metaphorical truth and magical thinking. And in no other area are humans more emotionally invested than in solving their reproductive problem. The Rational Male(R) - Religion succinctly explains the origins of this old order thinking, what it got right, where it's gone wrong and how we can correct our course for the future.Often called the "Godfather of the Red Pill", Rollo Tomassi has been a permanent fixture in the online men's consortium of the Manosphere for almost 20 years. He is the author of the internationally best selling book series: The Rational Male The Rational Male - Preventive Medicine The Rational Male - Positive Masculinity Rollo is also the essayist/blogger/owner of The Rational Male blog, a weekly panelist/host of the Rule Zero livestream and the host of his own YouTube channel, The Rational Male.

What Makes The Ultimate Online Dating Book Different from Other Books on this Subject? The Ultimate Online Dating Guide: Secrets of How Savvy Women Find Great Matches has a unique twist that sets this book apart from others of its type. Ms. MacGowan came to the conclusion that many of the shortcomings that exist in Internet dating can be resolved by using proven business techniques from the recruiting and hiring of workers. Her skills in attracting the right mate or the right talent are enhanced with extensive background in human resource and skills as a journalist. The Ultimate Online Dating Guide modifies the recruitment tools from business into an easy-to-use guide for "recruiting, selecting and managing" great Internet dates. Why Does The Ultimate Online Dating Book use this Approach? These techniques are shown to be easily adaptable to dating and relationships. They dramatically increase the odds of finding a great match while having an enjoyable, interesting and safe dating experience. The Ultimate Online Dating Guide coaches readers through a step-by-step process of self-discovery that defines what's important to them in a great Internet date and to naturally attract and choose men who share their interests, values, attitudes and personality traits. Ms. MacGowan teaches readers basic principles of advertising and writing. Strategies for finding and choosing men (recruiting and selection) are extensively covered. How to analyze men's behavior to choose the best matches draws on how recruiters analyze human behavior to find the best workers. The Internet is quickly becoming one of the best ways of meeting new dates. Its rapid growth proves that it's not only acceptable but also preferable. Women can broaden their visibility and meet men they wouldn't otherwise have had an opportunity to meet. It's increasingly important to get the right man's attention for successful dating because there are now millions of men browsing these ads. However, women need to learn how to use this wonderful new resource correctly to fully reap its benefits. Internet dating without sound back-up principles can be compared to buying an item on eBay without knowing how to compare prices, assess an item's quality or knowing the strategies of bidding. The Ultimate Online Dating Book Women Approach to Internet Dating After the self-discovery process, the reader develops her ad using her interests in the headline to attract men who share these interests. But many women have trouble with creative writing.

Ms. MacGowan includes examples of well-written ads for the reader to use as models. A great photo attracts. Tips that get results are covered as well as how to "read" men's photos. The reader also learns how to organize her email responses so she won't get her correspondents mixed up. Next is the advantage of creating "canned" responses that guide her in what to say about herself. She sees them as a timesaver that will provide consistency to her responses to men's emails. "Strip 'em Naked Questions, or Finding the Man beneath the Facade" is an unusual approach to analyzing men's responses. Each serious of questions, there are over 100 to choose from, begins with a hard-hitting discussion of what a woman should think about when she reads, and later, hears a man's answer. She'll learn if he has attitude, personality or behavior problems. Now it's time to learn about "problem" personality types. There are 16 whimsical personalities to avoid, which are described. A practice session reading and critiquing men's ads ties it nicely together in "The Devil's in the Emales, You've Got Tails." Let's conduct a "telephone interview"! Recruiters do this using prepared questions. In this chapter, Ms. Mac
