“Almost 30 years before Rwanda, before Darfur, more than 2 million people - mothers, children, babies, civilians - lost their lives as a result of the blatantly callous and unnecessary policies enacted by the leaders of the federal government of Nigeria. It's this charge that's dominated the book's Nigerian press, so far as I can see, the accusation, on the one hand, that Awolowo hatched "a diabolical policy to reduce the numbers of his enemies significantly through starvation - eliminating over two million people, mainly members of future generations.” PeopleYearsChildrenI CanTwoBookHandsGovernmentMotherLostResultsNumbersLeaderEnemyMillionsGenerationsPolicyBabyMembersPressesUnnecessaryFederal GovernmentFuture GenerationCiviliansStarvationNigeriaAccusationEliminatingRwandaDiabolicalCallousMother ChildDarfur Author:Chinua Achebe

“Isn't atheism just another religion?' No, it isn't. Atheism has no creeds, rituals, holy book, absolute moral code, origin myth, sacred spaces or shrines. It has no sin, divine judgment, forbidden words, prayer, worship, prophecy, group privileges, or anointed 'holy' leaders. Atheists don't believe in a transcendent world or supernatural afterlife. Most important, there is no orthodoxy in atheism.” WorldBelieveImportantBookPrayerSinSpaceLeaderMoralGroupsAtheismDivineHolyJudgmentWorshipAbsolutesSacredDon't BelieveAtheistPrivilegeMythCodeRitualAfterlifeCreedsProphecyForbiddenOrthodoxyTranscendentShrinesMoral CodeHoly BooksSacred Space Author:Dan Barker

“A year after I'd graduated college, I went to a weeklong conference intensive in Boston, and that's when things kicked into high gear. My workshop leader was a Harvard professor and editor. At the end of the week we met one-on-one over breakfast, and she said, in essence, "Look, you're ready to turn pro." She gave me a list of literary agents to query once I had something to show them. I came home and wrote my first real novel, and the agent that sold it to Tor Books was on that list.” YearsFirstsLooksSaidBookRealEndsShowsHomeTurnsLeaderNovelWeekCollegeReadyMetsEssenceListsAgentsBreakfastEditorsProfessorsConferencesBostonHarvardGearsWorkshopsOne On OneQueriesLiterary Agents Author:Brian Hodge

Experience, dialogue, feelings, and conversations are equated with Scripture while certitude, authority, and doctrine are to be eschewed!
