Книгата е посветена на болката от самотата и отговора, който предлага християнското учение. За първи път излиза на български език в превод на епископ Страхил Каваленов и под редакцията на Тони Николов, художественото оформление е на Николай Киров. Няма по-коварен глас от онзи, който нашепва в ухото ни: "Вие сте безвъзвратно сами, няма лъч светлина в мрака". Християнството ни убеждава, че този глас лъже. Християнската участ се основава на увереността, че най-висшата реалност, източник на всичко съществуващо, е личностна реалност на общението, а не някаква метафизическа абстракция. Насочвайки ни към това общение, ... |

Познанството с Тейар дьо Шарден означава познанство с едно оптимистично видяно бъдеще. Всъщност теорията за ноосферата (превръщането на Земята в сфера на разума) е единствената глобална оптимистична философия на нашето време. Нейни най-видни представители са Тейар дьо Шарден (1881-1955) от Франция и Владимир Вернадски (1863-1945) от Русия. Ноосферата според определението на Тейар дьо Шарден е „покривката от мисловна субстанция" на Земята. Но кой е носителят на тази промяна - това е човечеството. В днешната си фаза на развитие то е призвано да поведе еволюцията на Вселената в посока на Разума и на хуманизацията. ... |
