Why cracking the code of human conception took centuries of wild theories, misogynist blunders, and ludicrous mistakes Throughout most of human history, babies were surprises. People knew the basics: men and women had sex, and sometimes babies followed. But beyond that the origins of life were a...

After centuries of intellectual evolution, from the worship of nature to the rise of monotheism, from Augustine to Nietzsche, Western culture has now canonized a materialist worldview that insists life is an accident, and meaning is a myth. And yet, as author Grant J. Hallstrom shows, even self-proclaimed atheists exhibit religious fervour in causes like climate justice and social activism. The problem? We’ve rejected the very roots that once gave us a sense of self, morality, and destiny.

Tra israeliani e palestinesi chi ha torto e chi ha ragione? Chi sono i "buoni" e chi i "cattivi"? Gli israeliani, che "da vittime si sono trasformati in carnefici"? O i palestinesi, che "non vogliono altro che distruggere Israele"? E quando comincia il conflitto? A fine Ottocento, con la nascita del sionismo, negli anni Venti del Novecento o nel 1948, quando Israele viene attaccato dai paesi arabi "con l’obiettivo di annientarlo", o quando si verifica la "pulizia etnica dei palestinesi"? E perché la pace non è mai stata raggiunta?

Gli italiani di due cose sono maestri: di calcio e di fattacci. Se al bar dello sport ciascuno è di diritto allenatore della Nazionale, ogni bar della Penisola è una camera di consiglio dove si emettono sentenze senz’appello. Altro che popolo di santi, poeti e navigatori, piuttosto di commissari tecnici e giudici mancati. Eppure, la ricerca della verità è un incerto procedere nel labirinto in cui si rincorrono verità ufficiali, “altre” verità, verità inconfessabili, verità dei tribunali. È così da sempre, da prima che la tv cominciasse a trasmettere.

Several children of those seven heroes would later take part in the siege of Troy. This adventure was equal in the minds of Greeks and Romans with the siege of Troy as told in Homer’s epic The Iliad, an event which it predated by a generation.
