No Argument for God Going Beyond Reason in Conversations About Faith


Free Download John Wilkinson, "No Argument for God: Going Beyond Reason in Conversations About Faith"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 0830834206 | EPUB | pages: 174 | 0.3 mb
Religion is irrational! New atheists trumpet the claim loudly, so much so that it’s become a sort of conventional wisdom. Professing your faith in God sounds increasingly like a confession of intellectual feebleness. Belief in God sounds as cute and quaint as it does pointless. John Wilkinson contends that the irrationality of faith is its greatest asset, because rationalism itself sets artificial limits on all that we’ve seen-which itself is hinting at something greater that can’t be seen. In No Argument for God he turns the tables on the cult of reason, showing that it limits conversation to what happened, when what we really want is the why behind it. We settle for investigation when what we need is revelation-the answer to all our longings. Read this book and break though the gridlock of apologetic arguments to a life-giving encounter with the God who satisfies our minds and seeks our good.

Going South Jewish Women in the Civil Rights Movement


Free Download Going South: Jewish Women in the Civil Rights Movement By Debra L. Schultz, Blanche Wiesen Cook
2001 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 0814797741 | PDF | 1 MB
Many people today know that the 1964 murder in Mississippi of two Jewish men–Mickey Schwerner and Andrew Goodman–and their Black colleague, James Chaney, marked one of the most wrenching episodes of the civil rights movement. Yet very few realize that Andrew Goodman had been in Mississippi for one day when he was killed; Rita Schwerner, Mickey’s wife, had been organizing in Mississippi for six difficult months. Organized around a rich blend of oral histories, Going South followsa group of Jewish women–come of age in the shadow of the Holocaust and deeply committed to social justice–who put their bodies and lives on the line to fight racism. Actively rejecting the post-war idyll of suburban, Jewish, middle-class life, these women were deeply influenced by Jewish notions of morality and social justice. Many thus perceived the call of the movement as positively irresistible. Representing a link between the sensibilities of the early civil rights era and contemporary efforts to move beyond the limits of identity politics, the book provides a resource for all who are interested in anti-racism, the civil rights movement, social justice, Jewish activism and radical women’s traditions.

Going Amiss in Experimental Research


Free Download Giora Hon, Jutta Schickore, Friedrich Steinle, "Going Amiss in Experimental Research"
English | 2009 | pages: 272 | ISBN: 9048180198 | PDF | 4,8 mb
Like any goal-oriented procedure, experiment is subject to many kinds of failures. These failures have a variety of features, depending on the particulars of their sources. For the experimenter these pitfalls should be avoided and their effects minimized. For the historian-philosopher of science and the science educator, on the other hand, they are instructive starting points for reflecting on science in general and scientific method and practice in particular. Often more is learned from failure than from confirmation and successful application. The identification of error, its source, its context, and its treatment shed light on both practices and epistemic claims. This book shows that it is fruitful to bring to light forgotten and lost failures, subject them to analysis and learn from their moral. The study of failures, errors, pitfalls and mistakes helps us understand the way knowledge is pursued and indeed generated. The book presents both historical accounts and philosophical analyses of failures in experimental practice. It covers topics such as "error as an object of study", "learning from error", "concepts and dead ends", "instrumental artifacts", and "surprise and puzzlement".
