Most ancient Romans were deeply religious and their world was overflowing with gods--from Jupiter, Minerva, and Mars to countless local divinities, household gods, and ancestral spirits. One of the most influential Roman perspectives on religion came from a nonreligious belief system that is finding new adherents even today: Stoicism. How did the Stoics think about religion? In How to Think about God, Philip Freeman presents vivid new translations of Cicero's On the Nature of the Gods and The Dream of Scipio. In these brief works, Cicero offers a Stoic view of belief, divinity, and human immortality, giving eloquent expression to the religious ideas of one of the most popular schools of Roman and Greek philosophy. On the Nature of the Gods and The Dream of Scipio are Cicero's best-known and most important writings on religion, and they have profoundly shaped Christian and non-Christian thought for more than two thousand years, influencing such luminaries as Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Dante, and Thomas Jefferson. These works reveal many of the religious aspects of Stoicism, including an understanding of the universe as a materialistic yet continuous and living whole in which both the gods and a supreme God are essential elements. Featuring an introduction, suggestions for further reading, and the original Latin on facing pages, How to Think about God is a compelling guide to the Stoic view of the divine.Binding Type: Hardcover

It’s a Nice Big Bag!
Color: Blue Flowers
I bought this bag for my mom as a Christmas present and she loves it. She’s a big purse lady, so it is the right size for her. It has all the pockets in the right places and she loves the pretty floral design.

Love the style and Multi pockets!
Being a traveling float Phlebotomist for a very large company I need a bag that is extremely well-made holding my schedules.. my books, my PPE outfit, and all other essentials I need for my position. This bag is definitely the one very well-made, multi pockets more than enough room for everything that I need to carry all my equipment for me… to each job. Definitely would recommend this to anybody who travels in their job. Definitely purchased from this company again. Shipping was very fast and the product is in my eyes perfect.!

Beautiful, sturdy and comfortable!
I am very satisfied with this bag! I honestly thought that because the price was so low that it would be more of a lightweight beach bag, however, it is very sturdy and holds so many things. The straps are very thick and comfortable. There are a few pockets inside zippered pockets of some side pockets and a front zipper pocket. I get so many compliments on this bag. Two of my friends actually bought the same bag! I honestly want to buy another one just in case somewhere down the road something ever happens to this one because I am obsessed with it. I use it every day for work is very easy to clean as well. It’s almost like a neoprene type of fabric so it wipes off very easily. I highly recommend this product.
