Old Wine and New New Wine can kick-start your imagination into a profound, new, and true view of the intersection of science, philosophy, and supernatural religion. At the end of the day—if you reach it—you will grasp the essential relation between our qualitative experience and science, see science in a new light, trade in your materialism for materiality, and have an uncanny knowledge of what happens at death.

Establishment scientists are trying to tell us that there is no reality beyond the physical. This has not been proved scientifically, so they use unscientific methods, such as ridicule and power politics, to force it on the academic community, blocking our knowledge of whole dimensions of reality, mental and spiritual. Dirty Science exposes this corruption in our accredited academic institutions and calls upon the intelligent public to put pressure on them to clean up the mess.

Può sembrare per lo più ovvio che saper afferrare un oggetto dipenda dal vederlo e non viceversa. Tuttavia, oggi le scienze cognitive e la filosofia della percezione suggeriscono che le cose non stanno così. Alla luce delle scoperte più avanzate nel campo della filosofia della percezione e delle scienze cognitive, gli autori illustrano la relazione tra occhio, cervello e comportamento, mostrando come visione e azione non siano due facoltà distinte ma due parti costitutive di un unico mondo visuo-motorio, due aspetti inscindibili del nostro modo di costruire la realtà.

In einer vernetzten Welt müssen wir vernetzt denken und komplexe Phänomene wie Pandemien, Klimakrise und die Destabilisierung von Ökosystemen als Ganzes in den Blick nehmen. Der Komplexitätswissenschaftler Dirk Brockmann schaut auf die Krisen unserer Zeit, sucht nach Mustern, Gesetzmäßigkeiten und Ähnlichkeiten zwischen ihnen und komplexen Prozessen der Natur.

This small, illustrated book focuses on how virtual reality technology is a progressive tool for understanding the mystery of consciousness. It utilizes the insights of David Chalmers and Nick Bostrom to elaborate on how our brains are really virtual reality rendering machines that give us in-sourcing options before out-sourcing them to a Darwinian world of eat or be eaten.

This audiobook is an alarm. The loudest one I could find. I was chosen to write this audiobook to alert the world of our imminent danger. I wrote this audiobook in four days. During that time I learned things I never knew or even thought about in my entire life. The knowledge I acquired from my cosmic sources shocked me. But, the information contained herein is what they wanted me to relate. I've done my best to present the information in a comprehensive yet digestible form, even though many of you will find this very hard to swallow.

Most of us have been trained by schools and universities as to what scientific and historical truths are supposed to be. However, I maintain that much of what science and history teaches us is in error because the proponents of different points of view have too narrow an understanding of the truth that reality presents.

In today's age of modernization and science, people still look for some miracles to happen. They wait for some super natural incidents to occur. In a nation like India where the public at large believes in miracles, which gives rise to many superstitions, false belief and fear. How will the spiritual path lead people if these continue to prevail? What is miracle? Some phenomenon beyond a person’s intellectual imagination. However, intellectual imaginations of miracles to happen and differs from person to person.

Una mirada crítica a los discursos reaccionarios surgidos al calor de la crisis; una invitación abierta a actualizar la herencia ilustrada. Autoritarismo, fanatismo, catastrofismo, terrorismo… son algunas de las caras de una poderosa reacción antiilustrada que domina los relatos de nuestro presente. Ante la actual crisis de civilización, solo parece haber dos salidas: o condena o salvación. Lo que esconde esta disyuntiva es una rendición.

David Shaw has a Master of Arts degree in philosophy from Aquinas Institute, 1961. This three-year in-depth program focused on Aristotle illuminated with commentaries by Thomas Aquinas. We have endured 300 years since the Four Revolutionaries of Modern Science began their dismemberment of the Greek cosmos that had endured for 2,000 years. The Hebrew cosmos and the Greek cosmos made up the traditional theories of creation for the Western world. Our universe and the ancient Universe are vastly different. The ancient Universe was static. It was thought to have no history.

This $57 billion dollar industry is swallowing peoples worldwide as its revenues exceed that of professional football, baseball, and basketball combined. Statistics reveal that upwards of 40 million American adults regularly visit over 372 million published pornographic web pages. How did we get here?

This is the optimistic story of our fraught relationship to universal consciousness, the domain that transcends every local mind. It is also the story of how reality is relative and changeable to the way each of us makes meaning. Truth, on the other hand, represents the permanent and timeless state of being beyond history and culture that is called nonlocal universal consciousness. This is the state of nonpersonal awareness within insight and eyesight.

O simples fato de vivermos no século XXI já nos faz beneficiários da ciência e dos seus frutos, mesmo que a gente não se dê conta dessa verdade. Os objetos que nos dão conforto, que nos dão prazer, que nos transportam, que nos emocionam, que nos informam (até este audiolivro) só existem da forma como existem por conta dos conhecimentos científicos. O cidadão que ignora fatos científicos básicos pode se tornar presa fácil de curandeiros e charlatões, gente que mente para os outros e, não raro, para si mesma.

Este libro pinta un vívido retrato de un movimiento internacional impulsado por ideas y prácticas extrañas y frecuentemente inquietantes, pero cuya obsesión por trascender las limitaciones humanas puede verse como una especie de microcosmos cultural, una intensificación radical de nuestra fe más amplia en el poder de la tecnología como motor del progreso humano. Es un estudio de carácter de la excentricidad humana y una meditación sobre el deseo inmemorial de trascender los hechos básicos de nuestra existencia animal, un deseo tan primordial como las religiones más antiguas.

Las evidencias sobre el futuro se acumulan: para responder a la emergencia climática, debemos poner fin al uso de tecnologías y sistemas de producción obsoletos, dar paso a otras más eficientes y limpias, y rediseñar la economía. El problema es tecnológico. Las tecnologías que nos hicieron más sanos, ricos y longevos deben ser sustituidas necesariamente por otras, ya disponibles y centradas en la sostenibilidad.

Es la intención de este audiolibro mostrar que en la relatividad general esas dos caras de la cultura muestran el mismo aire de familia que cualquiera puede apreciar entre el rostro delirante que la tradición nos ha legado de don Quijote y ese icono de la modernidad que es el rostro de un Einstein desmelenado.

A democratic republic depends upon two unassailable truths: Freedom can only exist (1) where the laws of God are considered absolute and (2) where the majority believe that God, not man and not government, created men and women equal. This book is founded on the principle that only truth can make us free and that the Holy Bible is the foundation of our freedom. This book explores law - the laws of God and the laws of man, and defines freewill, agency, freedom, and liberty - and presents what is necessary to maintain our liberty.

Combining science and spirituality to reveal the true nature of the universe - this book will change perceptions, inspire mind shifts and alter the way we see the world, forever.
