Are All Believers Equal?: The Power of Moral Excellence - Paperback

by Hollis L. Green (Author)

• What is the importance of math? The study of math alone nurtures certain qualities, such as, the power of reasoning, creativity, abstract or spatial thinking, critical thinking, problem-solving competencies and better communication skills. Hopefully, the reader will see the value of both understanding and using symbols to improve their interpretation of faith-based concepts.
• In the ancient world, symbols were viewed with a sense of mystical fascination. Both religions and pagans used coded language and symbolism to express a primitive readable message. In recent times both public and private symbols, logos, colors and shapes are used to assist recognition of messages requiring brevity or secrecy. This book uses common and mathematic symbols to support a concept or construct for better comprehension.
• The key to problem solving is found in the process of using centuries old systems, structures and schemes related to applied mathematics and other ancient symbols used to relay a message. Such operations may influence more of human existence than most realize. As the world becomes more complicated and complex, the sophistication and simplification of mathematics, may become more informative for the future of the human race. Most disagree on the difference between pure and applied mathematics. Obviously, one aspect of math is theoretical and the exclusive domain of mathematicians while the other is more practical and useful when applied to real-life situations. Mathematics has become a useful tool for critical thinkers. A current TV series uses the principles of mathematics to solve crimes. Why not apply some of these to faith-based operations?
