An Ethical Concept of God by David Saville Muzzey - 1980
(add_tags)
One of the questions inevitably asked of a member of an Ethical Society is, Do you believe in God? At first sight this seems like a simple question which can be answered by Yes or No. But in reality it is a very complex question. Everybody except the avowed atheists (and they are comparatively few) believes in some kind of God. Even the devils, we are told, "believe and tremble." And no tribe of men has ever been found that did not have its gods.

Ann Jones' Women Who Kill by Phyllis Ehrenfeld - 1996
jones | kill | women | (add_tags)
"Lizzie Borden took an axe, and gave her father forty whacks. Then she took another one, and gave her mother forty-one." Would the public forgive? Perhaps, but it helped if you were a lady. The most famous murderess in American history was found innocent in a court of law, in spite of both motive and evidence. Jones' detailed analysis of each of the cases she presents is as intriguing as a summary of a whodunit.
