Brad O'Donnell, "Where to Now Saint Paul?: Why We're Quitting Church"

The Church is Dying. Is Christianity Dying? Absolutely Not! The Baptists expect to lose half their churches in the next 20 years. They revamp their message, but nothing works because they can't face the real problem that plagues all churches. According to the Christian website,www.gotquestions.org, few young adults have a "biblical worldview" because they don't believe in Satan, hell or that Christianity is the only true religion. The problem is that Christianity has an identity crisis that gives young adults good reason to doubt the church. Joseph Ratzinger (pope) quit his first seminary because it conceded that two separate and opposing Christianities existed in the second century. One was the Jewish Christianity of Jesus and the other was the Roman gentile Christianity of Paul. They noted that Paul was "indifferent to the teaching of Jesus . . . and the opponent of the religion of love, Christ came to announce to the world" Jesus' Christianity had no judgment, Satan, hell, Easter or Christmas for 300 years! These were not the teaching of Christ, but pagan traditions added by the Romans when they commandeered the religion later. These facts don't discredit Jesus Christ at all! Bishop John Spong of Newark says "the church has always dangled us between their imaginary heaven and hell as a control tactic" This savvy, secular world gets it, and is unmoved by the church's brimstone threats. They know it has nothing to do with the religion of Jesus Christ. The church is dying, but as they say, "When God closes a door, He always opens a window" So now, Christian Spirituality, more like original Christianity, is a star on the rise.

Robert L. Ascah, "A Sales Tax for Alberta: Why and How"
English | ISBN: 1771992972 | 2022 | 160 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Alberta is the only Canadian province without a sales tax, and lawmakers have all but ignored this potential stimulus for an increasingly strained local economy. In A Sales Tax for Alberta, regional and national policy experts map out how and why a provincial sales tax should be implemented. Drawing on legal, historical, and sociological analysis, the authors build a strong case for the unique effectiveness of a sales tax compared with other revenue sources. An influx of funds, this book argues, could drive widespread improvements in the region-from long-term fiscal stability to a renewed confidence in democracy itself.

Kathleen J. McInnis, "How and Why States Defect from Contemporary Military Coalitions"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 3319788337 | PDF | pages: 312 | 3.3 mb
This book identifies contemporary military coalition defections, builds a theoretical framework for understanding why coalition defection occurs and assesses its utility for both the scholarly and policy practitioner communities. Drawing upon the author's own experiences managing the Afghanistan coalition for the Pentagon, the volume builds a relevant policy and practical understanding of some of the key aspects of contemporary coalition warfare. Ultimately, it concludes that coalition defection is prompted by heightened perceptions of political and military risk. Yet the choice of how to defect― whether to completely withdraw forces or instead find another, less risky way to participate―is largely a function of international and alliance pressures to remain engaged.
