Thomas E. Woods Knihy

Od chvíle, keď sa písané cirkevné dejiny stali predmetom predpojatých interpretácií rôznych ideológií, vznikla čierna legenda o Cirkvi, ktorá sa zdá byť nezvratná. Avšak zápas o pravdu sa prenáša z generácie na generáciu. Táto kniha sa snaží oslobodiť od katolíckeho komplexu a s posvätným sebavedomím rekapituluje všetko dobré, čo Cirkev ponúkla európskej civilizácii. Thomas E. Woods Jr. v diele analyzuje prínos Katolíckej cirkvi v oblastiach ako univerzity, vedecký výskum, medzinárodné právo, hospodárstvo, charita, etika a právny štát. Tieto aspekty ukazujú, ako Cirkev formovala západnú civilizáciu. Historická amnestia, ktorú Západ udelil, nemôže zmazať minulosť a úlohu Cirkvi v jej vývoji. Francúzska filozofka Simone Weil vyjadrila, že kresťanská idea, zakorenená v gréckom myslení, je neoddeliteľná od európskej civilizácie. Západ sa dnes učí chápať túto lekciu na vlastných chybách, keď sa odrezáva od svojich katolíckych základov. Tento text ponúka hlboký pohľad na historický význam Cirkvi a jej vplyv na formovanie hodnotových systémov, ktoré sú základom súčasnej západnej civilizácie.

If you are fed up with Washington boondoggles, and you like the small-government, politically-incorrect thinking of Ron Paul, then you'll love Tom Woods's Meltdown. In clear, no-nonsense terms, Woods explains what led up to this economic crisis, who's really to blame, and why government bailouts won't work. Woods will reveal:* Which brave few economists predicted the economic fallout--and why nobody listened* What really caused the collapse* Why the Fed--not taxpayers--should have to answer for the current economic crisis* Why bailouts are band-aids that will only provide temporary relief and ultimately make things worse* What we should do instead, to put our economy on a healthy path to recoveryWith a foreword from Ron Paul, Meltdown is the free-market answer to the Fed-created economic crisis. As the new Obama administration inevitably calls for more regulations, Woods argues that the only way to rebuild our economy is by returning to the fundamentals of capitalism and letting the free market work

In this second edition of The Great Facade, co-author Christopher A. Ferrara brings the original work up to date with six new chapters addressing what Bishop Athanasius Schneider has called "the fourth great crisis" in the history of the Catholic Church. The additional chapters chronicle the attempts at ecclesial restoration by Benedict XVI and the "Francis revolution" following Benedict's mysterious resignation--including Francis's tumultuous Synod on the Family and his radical reform of the process for determining matrimonial nullity, leading to what some call "Catholic divorce" and a threat of schism on the magnitude of the Lutheran revolt of the 16th century. This new look at the 50 years following the Second Vatican Council is sure to provoke discussion and debate among Catholics concerned about the state of their Church.

In his blockbuster new book, Rollback, New York Times bestselling author Thomas E. Woods, Jr. offers the first critical analysis of the 2010 mid-term elections and answer the #1 question on conservatives’ minds: How do we roll back the liberal policies and big government programs that Obama/Pelosi/Reid rushed through Congress before the mid-terms? From getting rid of wasteful and inefficient federal agencies to abolishing the income tax to repealing health care reform and all of Obama’s "green” policies, Woods outlines a bold plan for dramatically overhauling the government and restoring our Founding Fathers vision for America.

In the revised edition of the 2006 Templeton Enterprise Award-winning The Church and the Market: A Catholic Defense of the Free Economy, Tom Woods makes a compelling case for the free market- and why Catholics should support it- in this sweeping polemic. Covering everything fr...

Citizens across the country are fed up with the politicians in Washington telling us how to live our lives—and then sticking us with the bill. But what can we do? Actually, we can just say “no.” As New York Times bestselling author Thomas E. Woods, Jr., explains, “nullification” allows states to reject unconstitutional federal laws. For many tea partiers nationwide, nullification is rapidly becoming the only way to stop an over-reaching government drunk on power. From privacy to national healthcare, Woods shows how this growing and popular movement is sweeping across America and empowering states to take action against Obama’s socialist policies and big-government agenda.

“Let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.”—Thomas Jefferson. The United States Constitution—the foundation of our federal republic—is effectively dead, a truth that bestselling authors Thomas E. Woods Jr. and Kevin R. C. Gutzman expose in this provocative work. Government officials across the political spectrum have long abandoned the idea that the Constitution has a fixed meaning limiting their power. This fundamental principle was the very purpose of the document. Woods and Gutzman investigate the forces responsible for undermining the government envisioned by the Founding Fathers, dissecting twelve significant assaults on the Constitution, many of which are virtually unknown. They illustrate that these attacks began long before recent controversies surrounding presidential wars, wasteful spending, and judicial overreach. The authors reveal the federal government’s “great gold robbery,” dismantle the false justification for presidential war power, and expose contradictions in the interpretation of church-state separation. They also scrutinize landmark decisions like Brown v. Board of Education, challenging the notion that government actions deemed “right” are necessarily constitutional. This book serves as a rallying cry for Americans alarmed by government overreach and a stark warning to safeguard our liberties before they are lost.

Keine Institution hat die abendländische Zivilisation mehr geformt als die 2000 Jahre alte katholische Kirche - und das durch Leistungen, von denen wir vielleicht nie etwas gewusst oder die wir vergessen haben. „Sternstunden statt dunkles Mittelalter“ ist ein durch und durch positives Buch, ohne Irrungen und Irrtümer zu beschönigen. Es ist Pflichtlektüre für alle, die verlorene oder verdrängte Wahrheiten wiederentdecken möchten. Sie werden u. a. erfahren: Wie die moderne Wissenschaft in der Kirche entstanden ist. Wie katholische Priester die Idee der Marktwirtschaft entwickelt haben und wie die westliche Gesetzgebung aus dem kanonischen Recht entstanden ist.
