"What if how physicists view our universe, the laws of science that serve as the foundation for our understanding and the origins of our very existence, are all completely missing something important? In physics, the holy grail is a unified theory that explains how our universe works, unites all the major forces driving our universe, and eliminates the contradictions involving quantum mechanics and relativity. Tom James, in this groundbreaking work, rigorously dissects reality in a way that has never been seen before that challenges current accepted theory. He presents a new, unifying view of our universe based on objects in motion alone--one that identifies an entire realm of things that were missed by the best and brightest. In God, Gravity, and the Grand Design: Einsteins Mind-Blowing Mistake, readers will discover: how geniuses, like Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, and Stephen Hawking, can be incorrect even if the math matches reality; a view of gravity using Newton''s Laws of Motion that is so astonishing in design that it is nothing more or less than a miracle of divine engineering; Evidence for the existence of God and one theory of how God came to exist in the first place; The key to colonization beyond this planet; and the importance of love."--

The “secular age” is not a smooth, untroubled process of accumulation and advance but an uneven and unpredictable series of clashes of interest. Charles Taylor’s “immanent frame” cannot be construed merely as a phenomenon within religion and culture but urgently needs to be understood in political and economic terms–i.e., as a class project. The failure of the secular, vividly displayed in the crumbling legitimacy of global institutions and in the spectacle of police violence, both calls for and makes possible a renewal of political agency. Tom James and David True argue that a theology of the cross has a distinctive potential today: it can pierce the sacred aura of normalcy around the consensual anti-politics of the neoliberal order so that a vision of a world beyond today’s racialized capitalism can emerge. But they contend that we don’t need to forsake the emancipatory aims of modernity nor retreat to local communities. As an alternative to these weak strategies, theyoffer a constructive and cruciform account of political agency that includes both prophetic resistance and practical wisdom, each embedded in contemporary struggles for freedom that, they argue, embody divine desire for a common world.
