"Freedom is a monetary matter" explores the social and economic consequences of monetary inflation in the current financial system and provides a comparison in various areas to a system based on sound money (money without inflation). The book has a strong foundation in world history and its major cycles. Rising prices, growing lines at the food bank, major corporations generating billions of dollars in revenues, an increasing threat of war; This book is written for people that want to figure out how to connect the dots in an accelerating chain of seemingly senseless and unconnected world events. Equipped with the overall framework as described in this book, these events will become very understandable and even predictable. It will also become very clear in what way inflation has determined the course of history and how history tells us, that we can expect increasing instability of the current monetary system. In this book you will read how bitcoin — a digitally sound money that dissipates inflation — fits into this picture. It also becomes clear what we can do for our personal financial security in the times ahead.
THE TELLER OFTEN TELLS THE TALE HE WANTS TO HEAR... "Why, given its sad ending, did my not-quite-ancestor choose this particular story? I wonder whether he had noticed the same tendency as I have: how young men – specifically pairs of young men – from Greek myth go missing in modern accounts. There was a time when every hero was provided with a boyfriend as a matter of course, as all these respectable Englishmen with their classical educations knew full well. And yes, they usually died, for pathos was an integral part of this cult of the beautiful youth. And 'cult' is not too strong a word: there was a Roman emperor who turned his lost boy into a god, and you can go see his face in any half-decent museum of antiquities." Hippasus is one of the lost boys of Greek myth, unknown even to most classicists. Inspired by the fortuitous discovery of an earlier attempt at reconstruction, the narrator embarks on a new examination of the evidence in the hope of rescuing from obscurity an appealing story of broken vows, mistaken identity, confusing oracles, young love— and a dragon.
The non-religious Vishnuh Society offers a unique perspective on faith, power, and politics. It is critical of these concepts and offers an alternative view that differs from traditional religious and political structures. The Society emphasizes the importance of self-determination, individual freedom, and critical thinking. Faith: The Vishnuh Society views faith as the blind acceptance of religious dogmas that keep humanity backward and stupid. It promotes a spiritual practice based on cruelty, ruthlessness, injustice, war, and genocide, which encourages various forms of human rights violations. Power: In the context of the Vishnuh Society, power is viewed as something that must not be abused. Instead, power should be used responsibly to promote the well-being of all. The Society rejects authoritarian structures and emphasizes the importance of transparency, responsibility, and ethical action. Politics: Politically, the Vishnuh Society takes a stance of independence and critical thinking.

The Spiritual Lives and Manuscript Cultures of Eighteenth-Century English Women explores the vital and unexplored ways in which women's life writings acted to undergird, guide, and indeed shape religious communities. Through an exploration of various significant but understudied personal relationships- including mentorship by older women, spiritual friendship, and care for nonbiological children-the book demonstrates the multiple ways in which women were active in writing religious communities. The women discussed here belonged to communities that habitually communicated through personal writing. At the same time, their acts of writing were creative acts, powerful to build and shape religiou...
This new study argues that the religious attitude of the Roman army was a crucial factor in the Christianization of the Roman world. Specifically, by the end of the third century, there was a significant Christian presence within the army which was ready to act in the interests of the faith. Conditions at this time were thus ripe for the coming to power of a Christian emperor: when Constantine converted to Christianity he could rely upon the enthusiastic support of his Christian soldiers. Constantine strengthened his Christian base by initiating policies which accelerated the Christianization of the army. The continuation of these policies by Christian Roman emperors eventually allowed them to use the military as a vehicle for the suppression of paganism and ‘heretical’ Christian sects.
