The Miracle Myth: Why Belief in the Resurrection and the Supernatural Is UnjustifiedThere are many who believe Moses parted the Red Sea and Jesus came back from the dead. Others are certain that exorcisms occur, ghosts haunt attics, and the blessed can cure the terminally ill. Though miracles are immensely improbable, people have embraced them for millennia, seeing in them proof of a supernatural world that resists scientific explanation.

There are many who believe Moses parted the Red Sea and Jesus came back from the dead. Others are certain that exorcisms occur, ghosts haunt attics, and the blessed can cure the terminally ill. Though miracles are immensely improbable, people have embraced them for millennia, seeing in them proof of a supernatural world that resists scientific explanation. Helping us to think more critically about our belief in the improbable, The Miracle Myth casts a skeptical eye on attempts to justify belief in the supernatural, laying bare the fallacies that such attempts commit. Through arguments and accessible analysis, Larry Shapiro sharpens our critical faculties so we become less susceptible to tales of myths and miracles and learn how, ultimately, to evaluate claims regarding vastly improbable events on our own. Shapiro acknowledges that belief in miracles could be harmless, but cautions against allowing such beliefs to guide how we live our lives. His investigation reminds us of the importance of evidence and rational thinking as we explore the unknown.Binding Type: Hardcover

Just what I needed.
Size: 6 Pack
A little on the pricey side, but really sturdy and well made. I needed an odd size set of brackets to fit a shelf in an awkward spot. I wasn't sure I'd find brackets with arms long enough for my needs without using some ugly white hardware-store shelf brackets. These look great, are very heavy duty, and just what I needed. I debated the purchase because of their initial cost, but once I got them I realized their quality warranted the premium price. Overall I'm very happy with them.

Worked Perfectly
Size: 4 Pack
They worked perfectly, I use them to hold a hutch inside a trailer to keep it from moving since it was not gonna be mounted against the wall. I use three of the four of these from the frame of the roof for the trailer down to the top of the hutch and they worked excellent

A Stylish and Functional Addition to My Décor!
Color: Gray 1 Pack, Size: 8" x 8" x 1.8", Color: Gray 1 Pack, Size: 8" x 8" x 1.8"
I recently purchased the ZHEM Valet Tray for Men in Dark Gray, and I couldn't be happier with this product. It's become an indispensable part of my daily routine and home décor.
The design and craftsmanship of this tray are outstanding. The dark gray color is elegant and complements my furniture perfectly. It's not just a valet tray; it's also a decorative piece that adds a touch of sophistication to my nightstand and dresser.
The size (8x8x1.75 inches) is ideal for holding my daily essentials like my watch, perfume, keys, and even napkins. I appreciate the versatility - it serves as a decorative piece, an organizer, and a functional tray all in one!
The quality is top-notch, and it feels sturdy and well-made. It's also easy to clean, which is a big plus.
Overall, the Tray has exceeded my expectations. It's a stylish and functional addition to my décor, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and attractive tray for their home. Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
