The Poisoned Chalice : Eucharistic Grape Juice and Common-Sense Realism in Victorian Methodism (9780817356972)

Examines the introduction of grape juice into the celebration of Holy Communion in the late 19th century Methodist Episcopal Church and reveals how a 1,800-year-old practice of using fermented communion wine became theologically incomprehensible in a mere forty years This work examines the introduction of grape juice into the celebration of Holy Communion in the late 19th century Methodist Episcopal Church and reveals how a 1,800-year-old practice of using fermented communion wine became theologically incomprehensible in a mere forty years. Through study of denominational publications, influential exegetical works, popular fiction and songs, and didactic moral literature, Jennifer Woodruff Tait charts the development of opposing symbolic associations for wine and grape juice. She argues that 19th century Methodists, steeped in Baconian models of science and operating from epistemological presuppositions dictated by common-sense realism, placed a premium on the ability to perceive reali

Rise of the New World Order 2 : The Awakening (9780988982055)

As you know from my first book, the same occult group of people who have been ruling over humanity for thousands of years continue to do so to this day. The reason they have been able to do this and do it consistently is that they worship Satan, who is called the 'god of this world' in the Bible. Satan was hidden for millenia in the mythologies of the day as the god 'Saturn' and I prove this in this book, as it is always those who worship Satan that get to rule the world throughout history, just like it is today, and the torch has been passed down the Luciferian family bloodlines for millennia...all the way back to King Nimrod, the founder of the Babylonian Mystery Religion. It is important for the brethren to know everything we can about Satan because he is the puppet master of the 'New World Order' that is slowly but surely coming upon the Earth. Information in this book that I'm basing my position about Satan on comes from the Bible, extra-Biblical source

White Skin, Black Fuel : On the Danger of Fossil Fascism (9781839761744)

In recent years, the far right has done everything in its power to accelerate the heating: an American president who believes it is a hoax has removed limits on fossil fuel production. The Brazilian president has opened the Amazon and watched it burn. In Europe, parties denying the crisis and insisting on maximum combustion have stormed into office, from Sweden to Spain. On the brink of breakdown, the forces most aggressively promoting business-as-usual have surged - always in defense of white privilege, against supposed threats from non-white others. Where have they come from? The first study of the far right in the climate crisis, White Skin, Black Fuel: On the Danger of Fossil Fascism presents an eye-opening sweep of a novel political constellation, and reveals its deep historical roots. Fossil-fueled technologies were born steeped in racism. None loved them more passionately than the classical fascists. As such forces rise to the surface, some profess to have the solution - closing

Eating the Universe (9783832192402)

In 1968, artist Daniel Spoerri founded Restaurant Spoerri in Dusseldorf; two years later he opened the Eat Art Gallery, where artists such as Joseph Beuys, Roy Lichtenstein and Dieter Roth exhibited objects made of foodstuffs. Taking the activities of Eat Art as its starting point, "Eating the Universe" gathers together artworks that have been made using edible materials, starting in the 1970s and continuing through to the present day. Over the past decade in particular, artists have evinced a growing interest in food and eating, concomitant with an increasing overall consciousness about the political, ecological, cultural and economic dimensions of what we put in our mouths. With 170 color images, "Eating the Universe" presents a range of contemporary artwork that explores linkages between food and the formation of identity, societal affluence, globalization and awareness of one's own body.
