In Religion for Atheists: A Non-believers Guide to the Uses of Religion (Pantheon, 320 pages), Alain de Botton makes the case that though our weaknesses render us vulnerable to institutions that would exploit them, we nevertheless benefit from having them addressed and catered to, and the secular world has all but abandoned us in this regard. The meek shall inherit the earth, the first shall be the last…it all sounds perfectly, cynically, designed to capture our interest and loyalty by appealing to our weaknesses and fears. Our need for “community” in an increasingly alienating world can be satisfied by formally congregating with others who share our beliefs. Our despair in the face of injustices that we cannot correct is resolved by the assurance that there is a spiritual magistrate in the great beyond that will set things right. Our fear of death is assuaged by the promise of an afterlife. ![]() Atheists and agnostics often dismiss religion’s tenets and rituals as being fashioned to exploit the human need for such things. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This new edition of The Rise of the Wyrm Lord is designed like the Director's Cut DVDs of favorite movies and includes deleted chapters, extended scenes, author and editor commentary, and even new bonus adventure stories written especially for fans.

Brief Summary of Book: The Proposal (The Wedding Date, #2) by Jasmine Guillory ![]() ![]() ![]() The six travelers barely trust each other, let alone the nobles they encounter, but soon they discover unwelcome news: War is coming. To determine which Houses might turn traitor and which ones will stand with the crown, the king sends out a small band of four mystics and two of his most loyal soldiers, the Riders. Religious fanatics roam the land, persecuting and murdering mystics-rare individuals with magical abilities. Unrest plagues the land of Gillengaria as some of the twelve noble Houses whisper discontent about the king. But sometimes the divine music of the angels is not enough to prevent conflict among mortals-and sometimes the god can’t even hear the angels singing. Because their ancestors fled centuries ago from the violence of a war-torn planet, harmony is prized among all people. In Samaria, angels raise their beautiful voices to intercede with the god Jovah on behalf of humans. ![]() ![]() ![]() Kendi mentions, in his introduction, the old spiritual: ‘We shall overcome”.
