God and the Philosophy of Explanation

Angebote / Angebote:

The purpose of this book is simple. It is to tell the truth about GOD. Learning the truth about GOD is the result of Mr. Peterson's discovery of the meaning and purpose of his life. It was discovered as a direct result of his need to learn it following his daughter's death in August of 1980. He discovered that the purpose and course of his life is determined in the same manner as yours. It matters not who you are or what your particular circumstance is. It doesn't matter if you have lost a child to death. It doesn't even matter if you have children. It matters not if you are a murderer or a saint, gay or straight, male or female, first world citizen or jungle savage, plant or animal. The purpose for living is the same for all living things. A rather intriguing claim isn't it? If one has experienced the death of a child Mr. Peterson's experience is not different from one's own in any important way. But the story of how he came about his particular experience probably is. Mr. Peterson says that his friends comprise a very special society of humans, they are parents of children who died before they did, it is-not supposed to happen that way. But because they did lose a child to death he says they are experts in the field of pain and grieving. They are not proud of the knowledge they have gained but they realize they have gained knowledge of what life is and how it actually operates that can be achieved in no other way. They have experienced the very worst pain a human-being can experience - and remain alive. Mr. Peterson uses his unique experience to guide his readers through a complex series of intellectual challenges with the ease of a master sculptor.
