Описание: Good Thinking is our best defense against anti-vaccine paranoia, climate denial, and other dire threats of today

In our ever-more-polarized society, there's at least one thing we still agree on: The world is overrun with misinformation, faulty logic, and the gullible followers who buy into it all. Of course, we're not among them--are we?

Scientist David Robert Grimes is on a mission to expose the logical fallacies and cognitive biases that drive our discourse on a dizzying array of topics-from vaccination to abortion, 9/11 conspiracy theories to dictatorial doublespeak, astrology to alternative medicine, and wrongful convictions to racism. But his purpose in Good Thinking isn't to shame or place blame. Rather, it's to interrogate our own assumptions-to develop our eye for the glimmer of truth in a vast sea of dubious sources-in short, to think critically.

Grimes's expert takedown of irrationality is required reading for anyone wondering why bad thinking persists and how we can defeat it. Ultimately, no one changes anyone else's mind; we can only change our own-and give others the tools to do the same.

Описание:

New York Times bestselling author and poet Nikki Grimes explains, "A study of scripture reveals that Jesus spent a lot of time with people in the margins. As an African American, I live in the margins, and I can tell you that it's a place most of us would rather not be. And yet, I know there is always glory to be found in the margins because of the Lord's presence in, and with us. As Poet Laureate of my Grace Brethren Church in Southern California, it's my job to distill the heart of the weekly sermon into a poem. I dive into each week's chosen scripture, viewing it from my own perspective as Black, as woman, as poet, always a little left of center, and looking for the glory to be found in the margins of life, and of the text. Of course, those of us who live in the margins are not what anyone expects, and the very notion that God might speak through us, through me, may seem a bit wild. But he does. 'I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, ' said the Lord. God's busy in the hearts of all who call on him."

Описание: Three men whose paths cross in the dark, who have come face to face with death, all have a journey in the history of religions. Will the questions of Doctor Adam, who sometimes compares prophets to bad politicians and to a philosopher, enlighten us? Will he help us find God or is there really a God to console our souls? Here is a story that will shake the reader with its questions. What does the old testament say? "Then God said, `Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground. So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.`" Then, if he created mankind similarly, do homosexuals, those born blind or disabled, those with mental disabilities, those who turned into monsters by starting wars and slaughtering people also reflect the image of God? Who are we really? Who is God? First, we need to free God to save humanity. Perhaps, we will have to say goodbye to God while reading the story of the Cat of Hagia Sophia, Constantinople. If you are ready to question your birthplace, the system, the beliefs of your family and what they taught you, then these five short stories that take place in Syria, Istanbul, and the USA were written for you.
