Liberalism

[close] A group to discuss the books that have had the greatest influence on American conservatism and new books relating to American conservatism. This group has its origin in a series on www.donttread.com entitled the The Great Works of American Conservatism. The Great Works of American Conservatism series highlights the writings, speeches, and art that have had the most influence on American Conservatism from its inception through the present. American Conservatism is a one of a kind, unique political philosophy. It is a strange synthesis of philosophies respecting God, human dignity, liberty, the rule of law, order, individual freedom and equality. American Conservatism is a radically liberal philosophy. Unfortunately, today's progressives have moved away from this original American philosophy, and American conservatives must now defend our American system.

[close] Dear Readers Asalamualaikum, As part of our research for our Thinking Muslim Courses and our ongoing podcasts, The Thinking Muslim and A Muslim Mom we find ourselves reading as many books and essays about current trends of thinking and Islam. There is so much thought-provoking material out there! Alhumdulilah we've been discovering so much! We decided to start The Thinking Muslim Book Club, as we want to share what we're learning, encourage wide and challenging reading, and hear the thoughts of others. This book club is dedicated to exploring issues in some more depth and untangling the complexities of the world around us. The club was created after we began delivering our first pilot course in the UK (see our website for new courses). As part of the sessions, we regularly posted accompanying reading material and was prompted by many of our participants to formalise a book club. The plan is to periodically read a title and then to organise avenues for discussion. We aim to have at least two books ongoing. One for general books with an end of month discussion for brothers and sisters and one specifically for sisters, which may focus on a book of specific interest. Of course, sisters are free to join either. Join our telegram channel to receive updates https://t.me/thinkingmuslim Wasalam Farhat Amin & The Thinking Muslim Team!

[close] This is a new book club for anyone interested in politics, who enjoys reading political non-fiction. We will discuss some of the biggest political books, mainly focusing on new books but with the occasional classic. The initial shelf may have a predominant focus on US and UK books but we are very open to expanding the focus - please share your suggestions. All views on the books welcome, whatever your political leaning. There is a linked political fiction book club you may also be interested in. Image: Jennifer Boyer

[close] For Christians who enjoy reading cutting-edge theology, emergent ideas, and ways to carry the way of Jesus Christ into the 21st century, without the baggage of fundamentalism and conservative Christianity.
