		<description><![CDATA[At a time when discourse about religion seems polarized between fideistic theism and reductive secularism, Klemm and Schweiker provide an imaginative 'third way,' in the form of a robust theological humanism that draws on and transforms the rich resources of theological and humanistic traditions. Ours is a time when cultures and religions creatively interact but also often collide, and human power increasingly endangers forms of life while great technological advances enable us to better relieve suffering.

		<description><![CDATA[What Are We Doing When We Pray? On Prayer and The Nature of Faith, a book by Vincent Brummer. Brummer's book is a concise and sophisticated book which addresses the practical question of whether prayer makes a difference in the lives of believers. Brummer addresses a classic difficulty that was initially raised by Kant and other philosophers and theists about whether prayer is only a private mental exercise or something much more than this. Brummer argues that, for believers, prayer has the power to transform the ordinary into something extraordinary. Prayer is more than a bunch of words that believers utter to God. Prayer is a way of opening our lines of communication with God on a deep level by telling God our wishes, desires, deep-seated fears, and disappointments. Prayer is a unique way of communicating with God that isn't really possible by any other means.

		<description><![CDATA[How Free Can Religion Be? Bezanson's book provides an insightful and accessible analysis of complex social and constitutional issues. Throughout the book, Bezanson demonstrates a deep appreciation for the difficult task that the Supreme Court faces in trying to strike an appropriate balance between religion and law. The core of legality is experience but not logic. The Supreme Court gives life to the law. Religion guarantees non-establishment and freedom from exercise and it represents the Supreme Court's not the Constitution's idea of religious freedom.  The Supreme Court basis its decisions on the logic and reason of the history, text and purposes of the Constitution. To not do this is to fail to exercise its power properly and within necessary limits. The Supreme Court is largely loyal to logic and reason. However, despite this, it is also deeply divided. Congress cannot make laws respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting its free exercise. Logic and reason usually mark the Court's decisions, though they have competed at a fundamental level since the beginning of time.

		<description><![CDATA[Review of the book, God Without God: Western Spirituality Without the Wrathful King by Michael Hampson - God Without God seeks to explore what happens to the Western spiritual tradition when the God of presumptive monotheism is removed. Far from being destroyed or diminished, the tradition flourishes in its liberation. It emerges from its captivity as an egalitarian, humanistic spirituality that challenges and defies all earthly powers in its celebration of the realm of the spirit, and the realm of the divine. In acknowledging God who is the ground of all being, we find ourselves in profound communion with the whole human race, for there is only one humankind, only one creation, and only one ground for all being.

		<description><![CDATA[Welcome to Dialectic Magazine. This is a new online magazine that will have a wide ranging focus on the endless interaction of conflicting ideas that make up the rich paradoxical nature of experience.

There are many types of paradox. In and through each and every paradox what is being sought after, found, processed, or realized is some measure of what is true. The more we can bring an awareness of what is true in our lives, what is authentic, the more we can enrich our intellectual, psychological, and spiritual experience of the here and now.

Articles, essays, interviews, poetry, prose, fiction and non-fiction will provide an eclectic blend of information, food for thought, and entertainment.

As Sir Frances  Bacon once said, "Knowledge is power".

		<description><![CDATA[Dialectic Magazine by nature of its mandate and mission has roots in being media itself. Media is a much more prolific presence in many forms. Nothwithstanding our status as a small part of what is considered to be media, we will be examining the role, influence, nature, and effects of media on how people feel about themselves and the world in which they live.

		<description><![CDATA[Dialectic Magazine will also have a significant focus on many aspects of culture. This includes the effects of pop culture on our everyday lives. Culture, according to its definition within anthropology is the sum total of ways of living built up by a group of human beings and transmitted from one generation to another.  Culture also refers to sub-groups of like-minded individuals, for example, in the way that culture can be defined as the behaviors and beliefs characteristic of a particular social, ethnic, or age group: the youth culture or the drug culture.
