Book excerpt: The Bible is not the word of God. The Religious Condition is a broad look at the factors that drive Christians to believe otherwise. This part-philosophical, part-scientific overview explores the psychological and sociocultural influences that subtly provoke Christians to maintain their antiquated views of the universe. While billions of people around the world have merely assumed the solid validity of the Bible, The Religious Condition presents a series of profound questions regarding the implications of such premature assuredness. In addition to the conclusions from actual psychological studies that support these viewpoints, covered topics include the various ways that Christians approach scientific conflicts, the defense of a perfectly moral god who commits immoral acts, the illogical methods of argumentation that Christians invoke in the maintenance and defense of their beliefs, and disingenuous methods utilized by those who wish to defend the idea that religious beliefs are based on reason instead of faith. The Religious Condition answers actual reader responses to the previous works of Jason Long, a former Christian. His fresh experiences in the church and advanced levels of educational enlightenment make him the perfect individual to present this vehemently unpopular, yet undeniably appealing topic.

Book excerpt: The Bible is not the word of God. Biblical Nonsense is a broad look at the tremendous problem of associating divinity with the world's most popular book. This part-philosophical, part-scientific overview explores the Bible's divine treachery, scientific mistakes, historical errors, false prophecies, and comical absurdities. Biblical Nonsense also expands beyond these standard reasons for skepticism by tackling the rationale behind the emergence and perpetuation of Christianity, psychological and sociocultural reasons that drive Christians to cling to their beliefs, and illogical methods of argumentation invoked in the defense of the Bible. Author Dr. Jason Long is a former Christian who condenses the most significant biblical problems into this single volume. Unlike other books in the field that delve into only one topic, this manuscript, comprehensible even to those who have never opened a Bible, is a full-fledged attempt to demonstrate that God's supposed word is a product of human minds, not divine inspiration. Dr. Long's fresh experiences in the church and advanced levels of educational enlightenment make him the perfect individual to present this vehemently unpopular, yet undeniably appealing topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Condition of Young Men: A Study The assumption underlying this Study is that Christian workers need definite and specialized knowledge of the classes of persons to which they minister. As a manufacturer of steel studies the chemical constitution of his materials and measures the strains and stresses which his product will bear, so the methods and results of psychology and sociology should be harnessed in the service of religion. I am convinced not only that this assumption is just, but also that the near future is to witness many a transformation in religious work through such consecration of intellect. The present Study is an excellent foretaste of the possibilities in this direction. It aims less, however, at immediate practical results than to illustrate a standpoint and a method. The standpoint seems to me self-evidently sound, and the method well matured and capable of many important applications. I am inclined to think, too, that the practical inferences that may be drawn from the essay are more numerous and important than will appear from any but a very careful reading. These inferences, in fact, the reader is expected to discover for himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
