The MOST DANGEROUS SUPERSTITION by Larken Rose

Description: The Most Dangerous Superstition by Larken Rose Most people, looking at our troubled world with its long history of injustice and human suffering, will attribute social evils to the greed, ignorance, hatred, or lack of compassion of others. Rarely does anyone consider the possibility that his own attitudes, perception, and beliefs may be the root cause of most of the world's suffering. But in almost every case, they are . . . The vast majority of theft, extortion, intimidation, harassment, assault, and even murder - the vast majority of man's inhumanity to an - comes not from the greed, hatred, and intolerance that lurks in our hearts, but from one pernicious and almost universal assumption, one unquestioned belief, one irrational, self-contradictory superstition that infects all races, all religions, all nationalities, ages, and income levels. If humankind could give up this one false idea, even without otherwise acquiring another scrap of wisdom or compassion, the vast majority of injustice and oppression would instantly cease. But this cannot happen until people are ready and willing to turn their judgmental eyes upon themselves - to objectively examine their own belief systems, to recognize and understand, and finally to abandon, the most dangerous superstition. ************************** Note to buyer: This book is a Softcover (a.k.a.

While we offer it for those who wish to pay the lowest shipping cost possible, there are a few potential problems with using this method. It has lower priority than any other shipping method that USPS offers. While they advertise delivery within 2-8 business days, that time-frame is highly dependent upon the amount of mail traffic they are currently experiencing. During periods of high traffic or even low traffic, it is common for Media Mail(R) packages to take three weeks or longer to arrive at their destinations. Sometimes a month or more. Media Mail(R) is surface shipping. That means that if you are outside the continental U.S., it will take longer than 8 business days for you to receive your package. USPS is not consistent regarding scanning these packages. That means it can be difficult to track a package's progress to its destination. Most of the time a Media Mail(R) package will arrive within 2-8 business days, but it's a roll of the dice and no one selecting this shipping method should expect that their package will arrive within the advertised time-frame. If timely delivery is essential for your order, we recommend selecting one of the higher-priced shipping options.
