Las Vegas, Nevada in the early forties and fifties through the seventies was a unique spot on the face of the globe known as "Sin City USA". It harbored the famous and infamous, and the term "anything goes in Las Vegas" was not an empty utterance. It was distinctly different from any other city in the country and proud of it. The saying went for entertainers: "If you haven’t played Las Vegas you haven’t arrived ". Where every resort casino offered a dinner show at eight and a cocktail show at midnight seven nights a week with top flight lounge acts performing nightly through dawn. it was the only real twenty four hour town where guests could saunter across the desolate strip with a drink in their hand at three in the morning and not get noticed, and where one could order a full steak dinner at five am.

Free Download Terry D. Cooper, "Sin, Pride & Self-Acceptance: The Problem of Identity in Theology Psychology"
English | 2003 | ISBN: 0830827285 | PDF | pages: 191 | 0.6 mb
What is at the root of the problem of humanity? Is it pride or lack of self-esteem?Do we love ourselves too much or too little?The debate about the human condition has often been framed this way in both theological and psychological circles. Convictions about preaching, teaching, marriage and child rearing, as well as politics, social welfare, business management and the helping professions, more often than not, fall on one side or the other of this divide. With theological and psychological insight Terry D. Cooper provides trenchant analysis of this centuries-long debate and leads us beyond the usual impasse.Humanistic psychology has often regarded traditional Christianity as its archrival in assessing the human condition. Cooper demonstrates how the Christian doctrine of a sinful and fallen humanity sheds light on the human condition which exhibits both pride and self-denigration. Bringing theological insights ranging from Augustine and John Calvin to Reinhold Niebuhr together with the psychological theories of Freud, Jung, Carl Rogers, Gerald May and Karen Horney, Cooper guides readers through the maze of competing claims to a resolution which affirms Christian conviction while critically engaging modern psychological theory. A model of the proper integration of Christian theology and the discipline of psychology, Sin, Pride Self-Acceptance will be of special help to students and practitioners of psychology, pastoral counseling and clinical psychology.

Free Download The Transmission of Sin: Augustine and the Pre-Augustinian Sources By Pier Franco Beatrice, Adam Kamesar
2013 | 320 Pages | ISBN: 0199751412 | PDF | 5 MB
Originally published in Italian in 1978, The Transmission of Sin is a study of the origins of the doctrine of original sin, one of the most important teachings of the Catholic Church. While the doctrine has a basis in biblical sources, it found its classic expression in the work of St. Augustine. Yet Augustine did not work out his theory on the basis of the biblical texts alone, rather he sought to understand them in the context of the religious thinking of his own time. Pier Franco Beatrice’s work seeks to illuminate that context, and discover the post-biblical influences on Augustine’s thought.Although he made considerable efforts to defend and elaborate the doctrine of hereditary guilt, says Beatrice, the doctrine already existed before Augustine and was in fact widespread in the Christianity of the time, particularly in the West. He locates its origins in Egypt in the second half of the second century CE, in Jewish-Christian circles that saw sexual congress as the source of the physical and moral corruption that afflicts all humans. In reaction to this extreme view, which rejected marriage and procreation as inherently evil, other theologians developed a more moderate position, recognizing only personal sin, which could not be inherited. Beatrice argues that Augustine’s doctrine exemplified a synthesis of these two trends which would ultimately triumph as the orthodox Catholic position.
