This is really an ad for a book by an old friend and colleague at Concordia university. He's a mathematician - which I had always thought of as the most authoritative and certain field of study there was. Not so, he says in his new book. All science, including mathematics, is full of uncertainty and constant change which still leaves us in uncertainty. You can imagine how much worse it must be in fields like history, politics and theollogy.
I am an atheist, however, I believe in the value for those who believe in God existing. I am wondering if that value, through poetic understanding of this religious icon, can be learned in a way Atheists would accept it. This is a new thought I had which I am only recently undertaking, but I thought it might be nice to get other atheist's perspectives on it.
i'm wondering what peoples all time favourite book/comic book is. i'm reading a re-write of Pride and Prejuduce at the moment called Pride and Prejiduce and Zombies, it's a really good book ^_^ but my all time favourite would have to be ...1984, the Catcher in the Rye, One flew over the cuckoo's nest or the Green Mile.
I came home from church yesterday to find a package from amazon.ca with my copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard in it. All bets were of course off while I read. Its quite a slim volume and my sister says it sorta reminds her of a Beatrix Potter book which I think probably did influance the design.
