The divided church is withering on the vine. Crises of its own making-ranging from clergy sexual abuse and its cover-up to the church’s complicity in colonialism, empire, and patriarchy-coupled with societal shifts beyond the church’s control, have eroded its credibility. A much-deserved decline is well underway. And yet, churches remain content to continue with business as usual.

Our Divided Political Heart The Battle for the American Idea in an Age of Discontent


Free Download E.J. Dionne Jr., "Our Divided Political Heart: The Battle for the American Idea in an Age of Discontent"
English | ISBN: 1608192016 | 2012 | 336 pages | AZW3 | 550 KB
Our Divided Political Heart will be the must-read book of the 2012 election campaign. Offering an incisive analysis of how hyper-individualism is poisoning the nation’s political atmosphere, E. J. Dionne Jr. argues that Americans can’t agree on who we are because we can’t agree on who we’ve been, or what it is, philosophically and spiritually, that makes us Americans. Dionne takes on the Tea Party’s distortions of American history and shows that the true American tradition points not to radical individualism, but to a balance between our love of individualism and our devotion to community.

English | 2003 | ISBN: 0415546346, 0415297389 | EPUB | pages: 228 | 1.6 mb
The divided families problem is a serious social issue in North and South Korea, involving hundreds of thousands of first generation divided family members, most of whom have not seen their relatives since the Korean War. It is the most pressing humanitarian issue between the two Koreas, and is connected to the greater issue of human rights in North Korea today. However, little serious academic work exists on the subject, in either English or Korean. This new study, based on research conducted in Korea, including interviews in 2001 with Korean families who benefited from the most recent exchanges, addresses the many issues surrounding the divided family problem, and highlights its importance in the path towards Korean rapprochement.

Dining together is a great way to foster a relationship, but many vegans find themselves in conflict with partners, family members, or friends who don t share their dietary persuasion. If those vegans are lucky, their loved ones will be happy to share meatless dishes and won’t mind postponing a steak or chicken dinner until they eat out. More often than not, however, both vegans and meat eaters are forced to accommodate each other in the confines of the same kitchen. The emotions stirred by their contrary diets can heat that kitchen to the boiling point.

Shelley’s Poetry The Divided Self


Free Download Shelley’s Poetry: The Divided Self By Simon Haines
1997 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0333597079 | PDF | 14 MB
Shelley’s detractors since Hazlitt have noticed a division in the ‘self’ of his poems. A central reasoning core fears the passions surrounding it and distrusts the language expressing it. A few of his admirers offer an alternative view of the poems as symbolical pointers to a non-linguistic reality transcending passion; most miss the point, justifying their admiration by referring to the poems’ systems of thought. This reading of Shelley’s major poems and critical prose finds the adverse case more convincing.
