But with The Return of the Gods , Cahn takes this to an entirely new level and dimension. The Return of the Gods , Cahn takes the reader on a journey from an ancient parable, the ancient inscriptions in Sumer, Assyria, and Babylonia that become the puzzle pieces behind what is taking place in our world to this day, specifically in America. The mystery involves the gods. Who are they? What are they? And is it possible that these beings, whose origins are from ancient times, are the unseen catalysts of modern culture?"--

The chance of salvation : a history of conversion in America / by Mullen, Lincoln A.,1984-author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 289-354) and index.Introduction : Religion as choice -- Prayer: Protestant converts and the sinner's prayer -- Gift: Cherokee converts and the reception of missions -- Hope: African American converts and the jubilee -- Kingdom: Mormon converts and the primitive gospel -- Sincerity: Jewish converts and resistance to missions -- Repose: Catholic converts and the rejection of the sect system -- Conclusion: "Maybes are the essence of the situation"The Chance of Salvation offers a history of conversions in the United States which shows how religious identity came to be a matter of choice. Shortly after the American Revolution, people in the United States increasingly encountered an expanded array of religious options. Evangelical Protestants began an effort to convert Americans, while developing new practices that emphasized conversion as an immediate choice. Their missionary effort extended to Native American nations such as the Cherokee in the Southeast, who received Christianity on their own terms. Enslaved and newly freed African Americans likewise created a variety of Christian conversion that was centered on religious hope and eschatological expectation. Mormons, drawing on earlier Protestant practices and beliefs, enthusiastically proselytized for a new tradition that emphasized individual choice and free will. By uncovering the way that religious identity is structured as an obligatory decision, this book explains why Americans change their religions so much, and why the United States is both highly religious in terms of religious affiliation and very secular in the sense that no religion is an unquestioned default.--
