Unity of knowledge is not easily achieved in today’s Africa where often there is little conscious interaction between traditional beliefs, Christian faith and modern secularity. The challenge is taken up in this book as scholars from a variety of disciplines wrestle with the relation of faith and science at the frontiers of knowledge. The results are important alike for the integrity of faith, for scientific advance and for the attainment of creative cultural unity in society. Readers with such concerns at heart will find much food for thought as they traverse the broad frontiers explored in these wide-ranging essays.

'Grayling brings satisfying order to daunting subjects' Steven Pinker _________________________ In very recent times humanity has learnt a vast amount about the universe, the past, and itself. But through our remarkable successes in acquiring knowledge we have learned how much we have yet to learn: the science we have, for example, addresses just 5 per cent of the universe; pre-history is still being revealed, with thousands of historical sites yet to be explored; and the new neurosciences of mind and brain are just beginning. What do we know, and how do we know it? What do we now know that we don't know? And what have we learnt about the obstacles to knowing more? In a time of deepening battles over what knowledge and truth mean, these questions matter more than ever. Bestselling polymath and philosopher A. C. Grayling seeks to answer them in three crucial areas at the frontiers of knowledge: science, history and psychology. A remarkable history of science, life on earth, and the human mind itself, this is a compelling and fascinating tour de force, written with verve, clarity and remarkable breadth of knowledge. _________________________ 'Remarkable, readable and authoritative. How he has mastered so much, so thoroughly, is nothing short of amazing' Lawrence M. Krauss, author of A Universe from Nothing 'This book hums with the excitement of the great human project of discovery' Adam Zeman, author of Aphantasia

Frontiers of Knowledge is the story of unfolding developments that are revolutionizing our understanding of ourselves and our place in the universe. We are birthing a new era in which our ideas about the nature and source of reality are swiftly changing. Insights from quantum physics suggest that the basis of our physical world is actually mental—conscious thoughts. Other discoveries are causing us to redefine our concepts of mind and the elusive thing we call consciousness. All strongly hint that spirituality is the underlying source of everything. Frontier scientists and scientifically trained researchers are providing us with a rich and expanding base of knowledge through systematic investigations of startling phenomena that have been observed in quantum physics, cosmology, biology, psychology, disease and healing, death, near-death experiences, reincarnation experiences, and those occurring in spiritual hypnosis on the nature of the spiritual realm. New concepts of reality are especially needed to explain the incredibly finetuned characteristics and the mysterious nature of our physical universe. Ninety-five percent of the universe’s energy and mass are a mystery to scientists, and for the moment, we resort to naming them dark matter and dark energy. The last time a comparable knowledge revolution occurred was in the late sixteenth century when astronomers determined that the planets revolved around the sun, not the earth. Historians call it the Copernican Revolution because it led to modern Western science. From one perspective, the new era predicted in this book—a revolution in its own right—can be considered the completion of the quantum revolution by defining and explaining the role of consciousness in our universe. An underlying aspect of this new revolution is the sense that humanity is moving into a new era of rapidly expanding knowledge of the human spirit (our soul aspect) and non-physical realities. Until now, this emerging knowledge has not been organized into a coherent and comprehensive structure. Frontiers of Knowledge provides the first outline of this new structure of reality.

Sloan explores the impact that the Protestant theological renaissance (1925-1960) had on American colleges and universities, focusing in particular on the church's most significant claim to have a continuing voice in higher education. He traces the role of the national ecumenical and denominational organizations, and studies the changing place of college chaplains.

Have you ever had a thought that there maybe life in other planets? Don't forget that our earth is only 4.7 billion years and much younger than this universe that is inching towards 14 billion years. Do you think that there may be another universe? Do you believe in aliens? What about spaceships and UFO? Perhaps, the UFOs and aliens have been visiting our planet and we don't know about it. Perhaps, some of us knows about the aliens and UFOs but are keeping it to ourselves because we don't want to be laughed at. It could be naïve on our part to think that we are the only life in the universe. Reports of UFO sightings occur from time to time though some sightings science cannot explain. No book has explained more about aliens and UFOs than the holy books. The holy books explained spaceships. The Prophet Ezekiel also told us about these airships. Did you miss the biblical mentions of the spaceships too? The Gods/aliens were not hiding themselves from our forefathers who likened these aliens to God and Satan, good and bad angels, and in some instances as monsters. The book of Enoch explained it all. The book even told us the names of the aliens and explained his flight in the spaceships. Prophet Enoch was not the only one who took a spin in the spaceships. A spaceships was described in a holy book to fly around the earth in one minute. All the above were science and technology. Not Faith. If the aliens moved by means of spaceships/airships,would that make them omnipresent or omniscience? Science and technology- yes but omnipresence--quality of being everywhere at the same instant--is not one of their characteristics. We as humans assigned those characteristics to the "Gods." Some people know that the Earth is 4.6 billion years by evidence through science. Some, also believe the earth is 6000 years by faith. One of the reasons for this work is to help channel some Bible readers and readers of books of other religious doctrines in the direction of logic and reason. The truth is that most readers have no idea how and what to believe, so they believe by faith. These ancient texts were produced by royal scribes and religious leaders in powerful economic and political positions and settings.They wrote to advocate and make legitimate, political or religious ideas and reforms so as to yield desired doctrines and ideologies. There is several illogical thinking when it comes to religion. We know according to religious books that: This/These God(s) created everything. Evil is a subsetof everything. Therefore, God created evil. When it becomes impossible to logically explain any given event, the bible believers resort to various methods to explain away illogical texts. Can religious dogma and its inherent confusion survive in the face of science and logic or is it doomed to the surfacing evidence revealing the workings of nature set in time by the Almighty Universal Creator who is sometimes referred to as Consciousness? Reading through the Bible and critically analyzing and connecting the dots, you too could come to have better understandings for the Bible's seemingly shocking inconsistencies and contradictions. These, among others, helped shape the viewpoint expressed in this book.

The essays which make up this volume arise out of the author's ongoing engagement with the tension between Christian theology and the general frame of thought that has dominated European culture for several hundred years. The early Christian Church set about not only to communicate the Gospel to the Greco-Roman world but also to transform the prevailing mode of thought and culture so that the Gospel could take deep root and develop within it. Therefore, in every age, says Thomas F. Torrance, "the Christian faith must be brought to bear transformingly upon the whole frame of human culture, science, and philosophy."

This is a book about science, religion, and the world in between. I was born into a Christian family, but fell out of religion and in love with the scientific method. I had little need of faith, I thought, when science could tell me so much more about the world, and ask so little of me in return. But as I aged into young adulthood, a new chapter of my story began. Did I really know why I believed what I believed? How could I be so certain of my convictions when I hadn't even honestly considered the evidence? This book traces my journey through the furthest reaches of thought, a journey that took me through the realms of psychology, biology, physics, and belief. Could I find a place for faith in the modern world? Or was I right to cast it off as I did?
