Qual a idade do Universo? A vida é resultado da evolução? É possível conciliar a ciência e a Bíblia? Poucos debates têm sido tão acalorados no meio cristão como a questão sobre a origem do universo. Criacionismo, evolução e design inteligente são alguns dos termos presentes nas...

Questions surrounding the origins of the universe and the accuracy of biblical accounts place science at the forefront of discussions between atheists and Christians alike. Believers criticize the natural sciences as untrustworthy or even as an enemy of faith, while atheists reprimand Christians for denying empirical facts of nature. Is it possible to rightly love both God and science? In this concise audiobook, author Hans Madueme offers a biblically informed perspective on science, helping listeners embrace both faith and science in a responsible and God-glorifying way.

Are we on the brink of sacrificing science and history on the altar of fundamentalist ideology? Navigating the chasm between unyielding faith and empirical science, this memoir reveals a deeply personal struggle with Young Earth Creationism and religious fundamentalism. Indoctrinated at age six into a fundamentalist sect, the author is confronted with the undeniable evidence of science while simultaneously being torn by his church's warnings of eternal damnation for simply acknowledging reality.

Provocative and daring, Spiritual Atheist challenges the views of many atheists and people of religions alike. The book suggests one possible truth that atheism and religion might just agree. The audacity of the book’s aim—finding a common ground rooted in spirituality—is only exceeded by its potential controversy.

The Jesus movement of the '70s was a heady time. It was a time of Jesus Christ Superstar and Godspell. It was a time of the Doobie Brothers telling us that “Jesus Is Just Alright with Me”, and Norman Greenbaum singing about a “Spirit in the Sky”. It was a time when Jesus was going to return any day, according to the best-selling book The Late Great Planet Earth. It was a time of the Rapture, Armageddon, and the Antichrist. Dave Warnock’s faith took root during this intoxicating era.

Just as intelligent design is not a legitimate branch of biology in public educational institutions, nor should the philosophy of religion be a legitimate branch of philosophy. So argues acclaimed author John W. Loftus in this forceful takedown of the very discipline in which he was trained. In his call for ending the philosophy of religion, he argues that, as it is presently being practiced, the main reason the discipline exists is to serve the faith claims of Christianity.

At no time in history has the United States had such a high percentage of theocratic members of Congress - those who expressly endorse religious bias in law. Just as ominously, especially for those who share the values and views of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, at no other time have religious fundamentalists effectively had veto power over one of the country's two major political parties. As Sean Faircloth argues in this deeply sobering yet highly engaging book, this has led to the crumbling of the country's most cherished founding principle - the wall of separation between church and state.

What does "real" faith look like and how do you know it when you have it? And what allows anyone to be so sure their beliefs are based in reality? The Rise and Fall of Faith touches on these and other questions. While the aim of the audiobook is to initiate a much-needed conversation between Christians and atheists, it will be up to each of us to carry the discussion forward.

With a sweeping and witty examination of religion's history, alongside fascinating doses of science and philosophy, Craig A. James has opened an exciting new way to understand the pervasiveness of modern religions. Thousands of authors have written about the how, when, and what of religion, but few have dared ask "Why?" The Religion Virus will finally give you that "Aha!" moment — that is, why religion evolved from simple spirituality into the vast monotheistic system that pervades Western society.
