This book was amazing. I know everyone says that, but it was seriously a.maz.ing! I wonder how many people read it as fluff though and how many sit back and wonder how close we are to living like that. Not the whole world war part, but the Games. I don't want to offend anyone, but I see the beginnings of this in those beloved reality shows, making fun at the expense of others, pitting people against each other - not that I think competition is a bad thing, not when it promotes hard work and teamwork - but there's an extreme. When it becomes violent, hateful, vengeful. You can see these things everywhere. Not just in reality TV. I think back a few years when all those dog fights were happening and the online betting that was going on and then I think about those high school kids who were beating people up and posting it online. How many hits did it get? I don't know, but it was awful. It was enough to make it to national news. Maybe I'm wrong and Suzanne Collins wasn't trying to make a deeper point about society, but that's what I took from it and I think these books are inspiring, tools of learning if we let them be. Between this and The Silence of God that I recently finished, the phrase that echoes through my mind again and again is that "Government cannot change the hearts of man". We each have to be responsible for what our hearts feel and how we react to the world around us. There are always consequences. Always. The one thing I had a hard time with in these books was the present tense. I know why she used it, but I had a hard time getting used to it.

Yeşil - Çember Kitap 0 / Başlangıç ve Son - Ted Dekker TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Martı Yayınları

Ehrman has outdone himself again. This is a great little book for people who are actually interested in the historical questions that The Da Vinci Code claims to answer: Who wrote the New Testament? Who decided whether Jesus was a human or a god? Was he married? What did Jesus actually teach? Who was Mary Magdalene, and what was her relationship with Jesus? and what were the contents of the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Nag Hammadi library, and the gnostic gospels? One puzzling thing at the beginning of the Da Vinci code, on the first page or on one of the cover pages, is Dan Brown's claim that all of the descriptions of the ancient documents in the book are true. In light of what Ehrman and other historians of early Christianity actually know, the only way to make sense of Brown's claim (other than to assume his research consisted of skimming a single book and copying it's ideas wholesale - ie ignorance) is to read this page as part of the fiction of the Da Vinci Code. As if the fictional author, who lives in a fictional parallel world where all of his claims are true, were writing it, because from Dan Brown that statement is a lie. The real historical knowledge about these questions is in some ways just as subversive and interesting as the more fanciful daydreams presented in the Da Vinci Code. The only reason authors like Brown can spin such a tale about early Christianity and get away with it, is that people, even devout Christians (especially devout Christians) have the real information hidden from them by omission. Read this book; Ehrman presents his material with clarity and authority.
