2-0 out of 5 stars Dawkins doesn't believe in God. So what?
This book just tells us what we already know: atheists like Richard Dawkins don't believe in God! So what?
3-0 out of 5 stars Misunderstanding of Hindu Deities
I will only comment on the attempt by Richard Dawkins to make Hindu dharma a polytheistic religion. Presumably he thinks the existence of numerous Deities show that Hindu dharma is polytheistic. What he does not realize is that polytheism/monotheism are western categories. Hindu Darshanas (Darsana means points of view and is translated as philosophy by western translators) are classified principally as Advaita (NOT TWO), Vishistadvaita (Qualified unity) and Dvaita (Two). Advaita says that only the Ultimate Reality, Brahman, exists. Vishistadvaita says that Brahman is the sum of God,living creatures and the world (hence it is called Qualified One) . Dvaita says that God and the world with its living creature are eternally different (hence it is called the TWO system).
5-0 out of 5 stars A message from the Middle World
There is a challenge in reviewing a book of this sort - being "objective".Customers want reviewers to stand aside from prejudices when they assess an item's value as a purchase.It's a stance nearly impossible with this book - few people are indifferent to their perceived gods.

If you read no further, then these 3 words sum up my opinion: obscure, confusing, contradictory
5-0 out of 5 stars A Happy Outcome to All Things is Sure
Gary Renard's second book, Your Immortal Reality, is similar to his first book, The Disappearance of the Universe, in that it emphasizes again and again some of the most important ideas that Jesus presents to us in A Course in Miracles.In his writing, Gary's teaching style can be likened to that of the Course.Throughout ACIM, Jesus teaches and reinforces Course principles by way of repetition and building upon a theme and so does Gary.Forgiveness is one of the most important themes in the Course, and Gary presents this principle clearly and accurately in both books.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Book
I was given this book as a gift and have really enjoyed it thus far (only 2/3 finished). It speaks to feelings that all women have and helps explain that it's normal and ok to feel certain ways. It also talks about hard issues that not everyone has gone through, but how to get through them. I would recommend this book to anyone woman looking for a good soul searching read. It really touched me.

One message this book communicates is: don't worry, you've already attained, you're already doing good. Let us show you how you are perfect, ideal, captivating; let's dig up and discover who you really are so we can see how wonderful that person inside you really is.

5-0 out of 5 stars An Honest Perspective of Chrisitanity
I can understand why some people would not be able to relate to this book or think that Don Miller is not devoted to God. But, for anyone who has ever wondered why they believe in God, anyone who has ever questioned God's existence or, more importantly, anyone who has only seen horrible examples of Chrisitianity, this is a great read. It's an honest and fresh approach to Christianity and spirituality. His stories are funny and his writing style is engaging. I think it's fine time that someone wrote something honest about Chrisitianity and God. I think too many Christian writers market books that offer Jesus as some sort of fad-diet, just call on him and all your problems will be solved. Being a faithful follower of Jesus Christ is a difficult walk and being a good example of God's love each of every day is hard work. Everyone wants to act like it's so easy to believe God all of the time and believe every single word of the bible. Don Miller points out in each chapter the scrunity that we are under as Chrisitans (real Christians--not religious people) because so many people that proclaim to know God have done such awful things and promote ideas that are not of God at all.
5-0 out of 5 stars Leading People to the Person of Jesus
As a Christian who was choking on "churchy-ness" I was refreshed by this book and how relevent it is in reaching out to today's culture. I guess its "controversial" as I read in some of the other reviews, but that surprises me, because it seems like a great tool to use in reaching people with the Good News of Jesus Christ, who may not otherwise be receptive...and to opening up my own eyes to LIVING a LIFE that is really A LIGHT in the world and not just "doing church". Jesus is real and He really does "happen" to people and change lives. He is LIVING and ACTIVE and very RELEVENT to people today.

5-0 out of 5 stars "Spiritual, Not Religious"
It's a phrase I hear all the time from people who call themselves Christians without caring for the Bible or attending church.I've always thought it an infuriating phrase, because it sounds so good but it really means "I'm a dead Christian, if I'm one at all".Because I had this idea in my head, I was a little wary of the subtitle of this book:"Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality".

5-0 out of 5 stars this book will wake you up
I bought this book about a year ago not even realizing it was about a Course In Miracles. About the early 90's I had read the Course and even started the workbook progressing to about lesson 100 or so. But this book (Disappearance) really helped clarify what the Course is all about; I could literally feel my ego resisting the material in the beginning of the book, but at the end I couldn't put it down. Needless to say, I started the workbook again and my mind will never be the same again. This book is a blessing and a Godsend.

5-0 out of 5 stars I am now a beliver...
At first I did not believe the theory behind this so-called "treatise."But then, an odd thing happened.I posted a review about this author's other "book," "YOUR IMMORTAL REALITY," wherein I pointed out that, in my haste to further my property buying expertise, I purchased the book and was shocked and dismayed to discover it was not about REALTY at all.See, in that review I posted for "YOUR IMMORTAL REALITY," I took the time to compose it, post it, and even a few people found it helpful, if not insightful.Dare I say, a few even took heed of my cautionary review to fully read the title before buying it.HOWEVER, it suddenly vanished!POOF, it has since disappeared.Yes, strange things abound.
4-0 out of 5 stars Good Book
I thought the book was fairly decent. I would recommend it to those who are interested in the "Course in Miracles." Being a "new ager" myself, I found many of his allusions quite correct. ... Read more

If Christian men are going to change from a pitiful, wimpy bunch of "really nice guys" to men who are made in the image of God, they must reexamine their preconceptions about who God is and recover their true "wild" hearts, writes bestselling author John Eldredge in Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Great insight
It is amazing that two people can read the same book and extract dramatically different concepts.
1-0 out of 5 stars Heart of Man- NOT heart of God
"Wild at Heart" is flawed at heart. It is about the heart of man - not the heart of God.
1-0 out of 5 stars BE CAREFUL OF THIS BOOK
Wild at Heart can captivate your interest and suck you in to believing it's all good.Problem with this book is that it is not sound when it comes to true untwisted scripture.I first loved this book and it began to change me until I researched further only to discover that The Bible has been used incorrectly.If you don't believe me,just punch in Wild at Heart on any search engine and read the complications with these writings.If you are a believer you will see in a very short time what I mean.

I knew about this book, of course, because I'm an academic, but hadn't read in it since it's out of my field and I'm not religious.
5-0 out of 5 stars SUPREME EXCELLENCE.
St.Thomas Aquinas has always been a very solid and firm foundation for the Church.I have always loved this Saint from the very first days of becoming a Roman Catholic.I am amazed at the excellence of this work and constantly refer to this work for any of my own personal questions I may have about God.This is an awesome set to own ! I highly recommend to purchase your own set of the Summa. Thanks to God for giving us this wonderful Saint ...........the Great St. Thomas Aquinas.

5-0 out of 5 stars The foundation of modern Christendom
How can one over-emphasize the role St. Thomas Aquinas 'Summa Theologica' has played in the modern mind, let alone the Christian one?Whether you are Protestant, Catholic, or Orthodox, Thomas' masterwork is a must for anyone who is seriously interested in systematic or historical theology, the history of philosophy or philosophy generally, and anyone who would like to know what one of the most erudite minds in the history of Western Christendom has said on the nature of God, humankind, and everything in between.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good. Helpful.
It's hard for me to understand the extreme reactions to this book. You don't have to agree with everything a book says to get at least some good out of it. I found it to be helpful. It did a good job of making me think about life. Are we just specks floating about on the wind, or are we indeed here for a purpose. The book doesn't delve into theological tedium, thankfully. Mostly, it's just practical stuff. I tell everyone to read a book called The Strongest Defense of Christianity after this one. The Strongest Defense of Christianity seems to be the book of our time in its field. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars celebration
We use this book in a training for juveniles - maximum prisoners! It is a great celebration every week when we discuss the issues of the Celebration of discipline. Most of the guy's are just for one year Christians, and know nothing about these issues. We thank God and Richard Foster for the great Service they give to "our Boys". Martin de Bruijn and Anita Stigter Johannesburg SA.

5-0 out of 5 stars Celebration of Disciple
When I first heard of this book I thought the title was an oxymorom. there never has been much celebration when I am being disciplined.But it was required reading, so I read it. It is wonderful. I'm sure it will take 2-3 readings to get it all absorbed, but even reading it once has changed my attitudes and my own practices in living for Christ. I recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Practical and theologically sound guide to spiritual disciplines
The reasons that I have recommended Celebration of Discipline to so many people over the years are 1) the book fully explains each of the disciplines, giving their biblical foundations and their practice in the church over the years, 2) the book is theologically sound, and 3) the "how to" aspects are fully and clearly explained for each of the disciplines.

Editorial Review

Blasphemy! Heresy! Who does this man think he is, claiming to speak directly to God?! Jesus did it, Muhammad did it, the Jewish prophets did it, but none of their Gods had the sardonic wit or raw verve of Prophet Walsch's God. Neale Donald Walsch isn't claiming to be the Messiah of a new religion, just a frustrated man who sat down one day with pen in his hand and some tough questions in his heart. As he wrote his questions to God, he realized that God was answering them... directly... through Walsch's pen. The result, far from the apocalyptic predictions or cultic eccentricities you might expect, turns out to be matter-fact, in-your-face wisdom on how to get by in life while remaining true to yourself and your spirituality. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars New thoughts for an "old" Christian
I thought I had heard every angle, every "sermon" topic in my 40 years of being a Christian and growing up in the faith.Miller managed to make me see things in a new light...from an undiscovered angle.I was moved and awed by many of his insights.As I read, my family was in the car together on a trip.I found myself reading many of his anecdotes outloud to my 10 & 13 year old children.They enjoyed his story about "Pete", the totally dorky kid Miller knew in school.It led to a great discussion about nerds that my own kids knew, and what really makes a person popular, and is it really so important?
4-0 out of 5 stars A worthwhile read
Donald Miller's "Searching for God Knows What" is a worthwhile read for dedicated followers of Christ.Mr. Miller has an unusual way of making Christians think outside the common culture of modern Christianity.He does this with a confrontational and non-traditional style, as well as a non-conservative social/political perspective, which are considered irreverent by more pious members of the Christian community.All and all his style and sound biblical interpretation have inspired me as he presents many profound truths and inequities that are common in the modern Christial community.I recommend this book, as well as his first big hit, Blue Like Jazz.
5-0 out of 5 stars Why Jen Galicinski is a great reviewer.
Jennifer is really cool. She is an ESL teacher in Busan, SOuth Korea right now, but is actually from Toronto. I got to know her about 3 weeks ago, and I think she's fantastic. She has a great smile and cute eyes. She really Don Miller alot, which makes me a bit jealous, but that's cool. I'm not sweatin' it. I enjoyed her review. To be honest, I skimmed it a bit. But I trust her judgment. Although she doesn't know how to spell "gnawing." She spelled it "knawing," which had me laughing a bit. Anyway, I may see her in january. We'll probably go snowboarding if the weather permits. She has a cute, funny Canadian accent, you knowm like "Sooory," and "eh?" and "tuh-more-ow." Anyway, I think she's alright. Check her out sometime. ... Read more

This book is a fantastic analysis of our culture's emasculating effect on men. The author has a fantastic solution for tapping into our nature and releasing the man inside.
3-0 out of 5 stars Review of Wild at Heart by John Eldredge
The author makes a strong case for men to stop trying to fit into a neat mold of what men are supposed to be like, how they are supposed to act, etc...He alleges that men have been asked to be nice to the point that men lose their masculinity and become instead more feminine.He alleges that this type of behavior is self-defeating for men and eventually leads to their unhappiness and then also the unhappiness of their women and their families.

5-0 out of 5 stars Smoking stuff
This guy must have been smoking plenty in order to create his lofty and interesting theories. He has developed his ideas from his first book "The power of now". It's very entertaining for a student of zen buddhism to learn about Tolle's ideas and thoughts. For a thoroughly understanding of this text you will benefit learning about zen. Steven Hagen's "Buddhism Plain and Simple" is an excellent source that strips out Buddha's teaching into it's core, without BS.

5-0 out of 5 stars A review by my Ego
As I was flying back to Vancouver tonight, I finished this book on the plane. I watched in amazement as my mind was waiting in excitement to just get home, sit down in front of my computer and write a review of this book. My mind almost raced at the thought of writing this review, collecting with amazing speed all the merits and shortcomings of this amazing book. But something was different. My excitement was tainted! My Ego, in his hasty planning for a grandiose review didn't even realize that it was being "watched". It happened before, but this time the "watching" went on for much longer and much deeper than before. Boy, my Ego is in trouble now! :) LOL

2-0 out of 5 stars Too Wordy
This book was a little TOO wordy for my taste. I am sure to ALL the FANS of the Hick's absolutely love it, however I did not. That's just my opinion. I am off to the next book. I prefer something that is straight to the point and lewss fluff, if you will.

1-0 out of 5 stars The Amazing Power of Drivel
As a university professor of human resource development and an Anglican brother, The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent is pure drivel and has no redeeming value whatsoever. If you enjoy new-age fantasy, get a copy from your local library otherwise do not waste your money. If you are serious about spiritual growth you might read works such as The Rule of Benedict: Insights for the Ages, or the best selling book on spiritual development of all time.. it's called the Bible.

4-0 out of 5 stars Another wonderful resource
The Amazing Power of Deliberate Intent is another wonderful resource on the Law of Attraction.While it doesn't contain as many "new" insights as I had hoped, the material is (as always) thought provoking and energizing.An easy read with outstanding examples of how to apply the principles of attraction in your life. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Inspiration by Date or by Topic
This calendar-style book has much to offer in short, easily adaptable entries for each day of the year. The obvious approach would be to set aside a few minutes to read and reflect on each day's entry. However, the author has generously offered an option via the topic index. Either choice is suitable for individuals or small groups. The format is a selection from Augustine's writings, containing an appropriate heading and the citation, followed by a brief reflection.

4-0 out of 5 stars Status Report on the Wilber Project
Ken Wilber started out 30 years ago in "Spectrum of Consciousness" trying to butt-weld Buddhism onto western developmental psychology.Now in "Integral Spirituality" he is trying to imagine what religion would look like if it accepted that the modernist critique of pre-modern religion and the postmodernist critique of modernism (including science) are true.
5-0 out of 5 stars Spirituality with intelligent thought: not a bad idea
The previous reviewer has done a great job summarizing the content in this book, so I'll just make a few simple comments. This book will probably be most enjoyed by people who have some familiarity with Ken Wilber's work (thought this is not necessary). Not a lot of time is spent defining and suiting his theory (thank goodness, since he's already done that in a hand-full of previous books). It was refreshing to see Wilber present some significant new ideas, some revisions of previous ideas, and he also began to relate different parts of his model to each other in a more dynamic fashion (thought there is still a long way to go).
4-0 out of 5 stars Integral Theory, with some application to spirituality
The book mostly presents a theory of how to theorize about spirituality, rather than simply delivering a direct theory of spirituality.By this late stage, we must set high standards for Wilber to meet, for the content of his theory and his presentation of it.This presentation is not as condensed, polished, and finished as one would expect from the expert on integral spirituality; it's a hashing-out of a rebuttal to one aspect of postmodernism, and a repeated urging to take that one aspect into consideration.It has an unbalanced emphasis on "the myth of the given", as though the only aspect of postmodernism to think about is how mystic experiencing is shaped largely by cultural factors.The presentation gives the sense Wilber is still in the midst of working-out these ideas; we'll have to wait for someone else to boil down his top-heavy use of jargon into plain-spoken English in a balanced, polished presentation with straightforward subheadings.
