“My claim is simply that the literary approach is one necessary way to read and interpret the Bible, an approach that has been unjustifiably neglected.

“Jonathan Wells has done us all - the scientific community, educators, and the wider public - a great service. In Icons of Evolution he has brilliantly exposed the exaggerated claims and deceptions that have persisted in standard textbook discussions of biological origins for many decades, in spite of contrary evidence. these claims have been so often repeated that they seem unassailable - that is, until one reads Wells's book.” WellsHas BeensBookDoneSeemsCommunityEvolutionStandardsEvidenceClaimsDecadesContraryDeceptionDiscussionSpiteExposedIconsEducatorTextbooksExaggeratedGreat Service Author:Dean H.

“Many writers claim that nearly all crime is caused by economic conditions, or in other words that poverty is practically the whole cause of crime. Endless statistics have been gathered on this subject which seem to show conclusively that property crimes are largely the result of the unequal distribution of wealth.

“We need to claim lunch back. It is our natural right. It has been stolen from us by our rulers. The fear that keeps you chained to your desk, staring at your screen, does not serve your spirit. Lunch is a time to forget about being sensible, practical, efficient. A proper lunch should be spiritually as well as physically nourishing. Cosy, convivial, a treat; lunch is for loafers.” NeedsShouldWellsDoeHas BeensSpiritNaturalForgetTreatsClaimsScreensPracticalsStaringLunchSensibleEfficientRulersDesksStolenChainedCosyLoafers Book:How to be Idle Source: How to be Idle
