At the center of The Dark Night of the Soul (La noche oscura del alma) is a poem written by the 16th century Spanish poet and mystic St John of the Cross.

This recording in English includes the poem itself and St John's two accompanying treatises (1584-1585), essentially commentaries, which offer line-by-line explanations of the poem. Many modern listeners have found guidance and consolation in this work.

The Bible remains the best-selling book of all time, believed by nearly two billion Christians and Jews to be divinely inspired. But in this hard-hitting new book, author Robert J. Hutchinson proposes that it is actually much more than this. The ideas enshrined in the Bible, he says, triggered a revolution in human thought and established the moral and philosophical foundation for Western civilization.

In The Seven Ways of Ayurveda, you’ll discover which type fits you best.

Written between A.D. 413 and 426, The City of God is one of the great cornerstones in the history of Christian thought, a book which is vital to the understanding of modern Western society. Augustine originally intended it to be an apology for Christianity against the accusation that the Church was responsible for the decline of the Roman Empire, which had occurred just three years earlier. Indeed, Augustine produced a great amount of evidence to prove that paganism was responsible for this event. However, by the time the work was finished, the book had taken on a larger theme.

"Da qualche tempo sto scartabellando nuovi documenti riservati, intercettazioni delle procure italiane e straniere, atti di commissioni internazionali. Sto incontrando preti e monsignori che mi raccontano che, oltre agli scandali economici, non sono finiti nemmeno quelli sessuali. Che gli abusi sui più piccoli non sono affatto un fenomeno superato, e che nei primi tre anni di pontificato di Bergoglio sono arrivate alla Congregazione per la dottrina della fede 1200 denunce di molestie 'verosimili' su ragazzini e ragazzine di mezzo mondo."

Thomas Paine's The Age of Reason; Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology, published in three parts from 1794, was a best seller in America, where it caused a short-lived deistic revival. Promoting a creator-God while advocating reason in the place of revelation, Paine’s controversial pamphlet caused his native British audience, fearing the results of the French Revolution, to receive it with more hostility than their American counterparts.
