The Word, The Breath, The Saving Grace by Robert R. Whitford Pdf
A funny thing happens to you when you get older. Maybe for the first time in your life you think about your mortality. With that newfound realization of the impermanence of human life, you might think about your actual mortal soul. In the last few years I have had that particular realization as have many others, I am sure, who also realized they had wasted their youth in the singular pursuit of pleasure and selfishness. I have even had the effrontery to let hurl from my mouth the outright denial of the existence of an all-powerful and forgiving God. With my acceptance of Jesus Christ as my personal savior and my attempts to align myself with the apparent will of God, I have moved on to an exploration and learning experience of scripture. I am a poet and am compelled to write about my experience and what I've learned. I am hoping that this book is acceptable in the eyes of my God. While many of these poems are influenced by the religious writings of thousands of years past, others are from my own personal inspiration and revelations. I hope you the reader will appreciate at least some of my work. It is the best I have to offer God and the reading public. I hope that both find it pleasing.
The Sacred in Fantastic Fandom by Carole M. Cusack,John W. Morehead,Venetia Laura Delano Robertson Pdf
To the casual observer, similarities between fan communities and religious believers are difficult to find. Religion is traditional, institutional, and serious; whereas fandom is contemporary, individualistic, and fun. Can the robes of nuns and priests be compared to cosplay outfits of Jedi Knights and anime characters? Can travelling to fan conventions be understood as pilgrimages to the shrines of saints? These new essays investigate fan activities connected to books, film, and online games, such as Harry Potter-themed weddings, using The Hobbit as a sacred text, and taking on heroic roles in World of Warcraft. Young Muslim women cosplayers are brought into conversation with Chaos magicians who use pop culture tropes and characters. A range of canonical texts, such as Supernatural, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Sherlock--are examined in terms of the pleasure and enchantment of repeated viewing. Popular culture is revealed to be a fertile source of religious and spiritual creativity in the contemporary world.

The girls struggle to win the war against their grief and keep hold of their growing power before it consumes them all.
Darwinian Populations and Natural Selection by Peter Godfrey-Smith Pdf
In 1859 Darwin described a deceptively simple mechanism that he called "natural selection," a combination of variation, inheritance, and reproductive success. He argued that this mechanism was the key to explaining the most puzzling features of the natural world, and science and philosophy were changed forever as a result. The exact nature of the Darwinian process has been controversial ever since, however. Godfrey-Smith draws on new developments in biology, philosophy of science, and other fields to give a new analysis and extension of Darwin's idea. The central concept used is that of a "Darwinian population," a collection of things with the capacity to undergo change by natural selection. From this starting point, new analyses of the role of genes in evolution, the application of Darwinian ideas to cultural change, and "evolutionary transitions" that produce complex organisms and societies are developed. Darwinian Populations and Natural Selection will be essential reading for anyone interested in evolutionary theory

Out of desperation, Corbin and Subtle Jewel form a shaky alliance as they unearth dangerous secrets-secrets that both the human and faerie governments will kill to protect. Corbin and Subtle Jewel must rise above their troubled pasts and work together to stop a potential war between the realms. Or will their personal demons destroy them both and the worlds they love?
