The Trouble with the Trinity
One God or one with several forms? Or maybe two, three, or perhaps many separate Gods? If you seriously study all the "Christian" religions, you will find that each of these possibilities is claimed. That is one "trouble" with the Trinity-there are just too many possibilities. Which, if any, is right? Which view does the Bible support? And if it supports one view, how strongly and in exactly what way? The Trouble with the Trinity attempts to study every verse in God's Word that links a name for one or more members of the Godhead with a nearby word or concept for God. Nearly a thousand verses meet this condition. Collating them into logical categories reveals the eight, and only eight, possib...
The History & Use of Amulets, Charms and Talismans
Amulets and charms have been used since mankind evolved from its distant origins millions of years ago. They have been used to protect and to harm, and in both the practice and avoidance of witchcraft and sorcery. They are made of wood and stone, clay, metal, plants and dead animals. They are carved into crude shapes and in the most exquisite forms. They may also be composed entirely of words, which are believed to have great power and magical properties. Used by pagans, Christians, Jews and followers of every faith and tradition known across the world, they are considered direct links to the gods and local spirits. All are links to the supernatural. Regardless if they are called amulets, charms or talismans, these objects are credited with providing cures, causing evil, and bringing health and prosperity. This book, using ethnographic studies, ancient records and folklore, will explore the history and use of amulets and will show that they continue to be an important part of our modern culture.

The Dark Wind
The Dark Wind provides a survey of witches around the world, their prehistoric origin and how society has viewed them throughout history. Folklorist Gary R. Varner explores the use of magic, spells and curses among indigenous groups as well as state approved religions such as those observed in ancient Rome and Greece, and how even contemporary Christianity uses many of the same "magic" combinations. Also examined is the current "witch craze" in several countries where thousands are being killed as witches, the underlying reasons for this tragedy and the history of anti-witchcraft laws. The Dark Wind is a book for everyone interested in anthropology, archaeology, ancient history, religion and the occult. Illustrated with contemporary woodcuts and drawings. The author is a member of the American Folklore Society and the Foundation for Mythological Studies.
The Love Path
The Love Path presents a radical, new, and exciting theory about the evolution of human love consciousness. The author postulates that The Love Path is one of four developmental routes that can assist us to become who we want to be. The other routes are The Truth Path, The Peace Path, and The Warrior Path. While we can change direction at any time and experiment with different modes of being, those who choose to focus on the developmental tasks of The Love Path right to its completion become Masters of Love. The first part of the book outlines key concepts which form the building blocks to the author’s theory, and explains why modern love relationships have become increasingly complex. The second part of the book is a step-by-step practical overview of how love consciousness can grow through four maturational stages of human experience: 1. Sensuality, 2. Sexuality, 3. Advanced Intimacy, and 4. Compassion. Individually, The Love Path offers followers happiness and inner peace. Collectively, The Love Path is a guide for those wishing to create Eden on Earth. The choice is ours.

Intersectional Feminism in the Age of Transnationalism
Intersectional Feminism in the Age of Transnationalism: Voices from the Margins explores the limitations of the transnationalist approach to feminism and questions the neoliberal emphasis on individual freedom and consumer choice as the central goals of feminist activism. The contributions to the volume discuss such varied topics as fiction by Edwidge Dandicat, Judith Ortiz-Cofer, and Diamela Eltit; visual art of Laura Aguilar and Maruja Mallo; films directed by Lucrecia Martel; a TV series based on a novel by María Dueñas; the art-activism of Ani Ganzala and Zinha Franco; and the philosophical thought of Gloria Anzaldúa. All chapters proceed from the belief in the continued usefulness of intersectionality as a valuable category of critical analysis that is particularly necessary at the time when the effects of neoliberal globalization are undermining many familiar categories of critical inquiry.
The Shekhinah Is Coming
The Shekhinah is Coming offers a comprehensive, detailed, and mind-expanding study of ancient wisdom that includes sacred text to illuminate these teachings and breaks down some of the religious boundaries that continue to separate mankind. It offers an opportunity to expand the thought process by blending the enshrouded mysteries of ancient wisdom with history, science, sacred geometry, myths, and legends. Author Valjean Tchakirides demonstrates that the three major religions are more alike than different, illustrating their shared beginnings. We are all connected to God, as is revealed in the ancient texts of the Bible and the Quran. The life of Jesus is described as set in the constellati...
