We all have things we rely on going our way to help us feel calm and happy. Your partner waking up in a good mood. No traffic on the way to work. No queues at the supermarket. And no rain on your day off. But what happens when things don’t work out that way? We fall back on soothing habits. A trip to the cupboard for snacks. Scrolling on social media. A few beers or a couple of glasses of wine after a stressful day.

In The Problem of Pain, C. S. Lewis tackles one of the most difficult and enduring questions in Christian theology: If God is both all-powerful and all-good, why does suffering exist? With his characteristic clarity and intellectual depth, Lewis explores the nature of pain and suffering, offering a philosophical and theological perspective on how they fit into the divine plan. Lewis delves into the complexities of human existence, discussing the role of free will, the consequences of sin, and the purpose of suffering in spiritual growth.

P. D. Ouspensky was born in Moscow in 1878. His first book, The Fourth Dimension (1909), offered a contribution to mathematical theory; it was Tertium Organum (1912) and A Model of the Universe (written 1914) which revealed his stature as a thinker and his deep preoccupation with the problems of man’s existence. Ouspensky’s search for truth brought him in 1915 to his meeting in Moscow with George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff who revealed to him a system of knowledge which Ouspensky recognised as a vital need for mankind at the present time.

The ideological left is transforming America into something our founders never intended. Our national motto, E pluribus unum, "out of many, one," has been replaced with Ex uno, multi, "out of one, many." In divided America, it means identity consciousness reigns as we become polarized by calls for diversity, equity, and inclusion; that radical view is echoed by the intimidated business world, most media, the corrupted education establishment, and especially the deep-state big government.

Lottocracy argues that the problem is with the heart of modern democracy: the election. Elections are failing as accountability mechanisms. Elections provide short-term incentives, leading elected politicians to downplay long-term catastrophic concerns. Elections create division where none need exist. The most powerful among us take advantage of this to control who is elected, what policies are enacted, and which problems are ignored. What should we do?

That means the propaganda is working. Scott Coley trains a critical eye on the fusion of evangelicalism and right-wing politics in Ministers of Propaganda.

'Thinking' is what we use to navigate life. It is the lens through which we see the world. Thoughts determine the quality of our lives; they determine its problems and its achievements, Work, success, relationships, happiness, everything depends on the way we think.

This book analyses thoughts through an interesting amalgamation of such diverse subjects as Indian epistemology, Vedanta and mythology: and Western psychology, logic and literature.

"Was ist das Wesen des Lachens? Was steckt hinter dem Lächerlichen? Was haben die Grimasse eines Clowns, ein Wortspiel, eine Verwechslung in einem Schwank, eine geistvolle Lustspielszene miteinander gemeinsam?" Der französische Philosoph und Literaturnobelpreisträger (1927) Henri Bergson (1859 - 1941) ging dieser Frage in seinem Essay Le Rire (Das Lachen) aus dem Jahr 1900 nach. Das Werk ist nicht nur eine Theorie des Komischen, sondern auch gleichzeitig eine Hommage an künstlerische Kreativität.

"Der Nutzen ist das große Ideal der Zeit, dem alle Kräfte frohnen und alle Talente huldigen sollen. Auf dieser groben Waage hat das geistige Verdienst der Kunst kein Gewicht, und aller Aufmunterung beraubt, verschwindet sie von dem lärmenden Markt des Jahrhunderts." In seiner Abhandlung aus dem Jahre 1795 geht Schiller der Frage nach, warum die französische Revolution nicht in der Lage war, Frankreich die versprochene Humanität zu bringen. Schiller berührt Punkte der Moralphilosophie, der Anthropologie und der Geschichtsphilosophie. Ein echtes Grundlagenwerk der Philosophie!
