DID GOD CREATE MANKIND OR DID MANKIND CREATE GOD? This is the central and most vital question posed by former Pastor and International speaker Brian Baker. In 1979 he and his wife founded a church in Perth, Western Australia which in the space of less than ten years became the largest single congregation in the city and one of the largest in Australia. He resigned from the ministry in 1989 when his marriage finally ended. Since then he has spent much time examining his personal faith. This book is the result of Brian's research and re-evaluation of his former beliefs. Brian boldly questions the very existence of God and uses the Bible, which is said to be the 'Word of God' to provide evidence that God is NOT the 'Intelligent Designer' God creator of the universe as Christians have claimed in recent times. Here are reasons why this former dedicated Christian fundamentalist is now a Realist, Rationalist, Skeptic and Atheist. If you are a Christian - this is a book your church will not want you to read! If you have questions about the validity of the Bible and faith in God and the afterlife - this is a book you should consider. NEW EDITION 2011

Straight edge created its own sound and visual style, went on to embrace vegetarianism, and later saw the rise of a militant fringe. As the "don't drink, don't smoke" message spread from Washington, D.C., to Boston, California, New York City, and, eventually, the world, adherents struggled to define the fundamental ideals and limits of what may be the ultimate youth movement. Tony Rettman traces the story of straight edge from adolescent origins to enduring counterculture via fresh first-hand accounts from the clear and alert members of Minor Threat, SS Decontrol, Youth of Today, DYS, Slapshot, Uniform Choice, 7 Seconds, Stalag 13, Justice League, Chain of Strength, No for an Answer, Insted, Gorilla Biscuits, Judge, Bold, Projec

Constantius II, son of Constantine the Great, ruled the Roman Empire between 337 and 361 CE. Constantius’ reign is characterised by a series of political and cultural upheavals and is rightly viewed as a time of significant change in the history of the fourth century. Constantius initially shared power with his brothers, Constantine II and Constans, but this arrangement lasted a short period of time before Constantine II was killed in a contest over authority by Constans. Further threats to the stability of the empire arose with the usurpation of the ambitious Roman general Magnentius between 350 and 353, and additional episodes of imperial instability occurred as Constantius’ relations ...
