Richard M. Dolan is a gifted historian whose study of U.S. Cold War strategy led him to the broader context of increased security measures and secrecy since World War II. One aspect of such government policies that has continued to hold the public's imagination for over half a century is the question of unidentified flying objects.UFOs and the National Security State is the first volume of a two-part detailed chronological narrative of the national security dimensions of the UFO phenomenon from 1941 to the present. Working from hundreds of declassified records and other primary and secondary sources, Dolan centers his investigation on the American military and intelligence communities, demonstrating that they take UFOs seriously indeed.Included in this volume are the activities of more than fifty military bases relating to UFOs, innumerable violations of sensitive airspace by unknown craft and analyses of the Roswell controversy, the CIA-sponsored Robertson Panel, and the Condon Committee Report. Dolan highlights the development of civilian anti-secrecy movements, which flourished in the 1950s and 1960s until the adoption of an official government policy and subsequent "closing of the door" during the Nixon administration.
"This work of speculative non-fiction combines meticulous fact-finding from historian/researcher Richard M. Dolan and forward-leaning scenarios from journalist/screenwriter Bryce Zabel on the world's most mind-bending subject. The authors predict radical changes after official acknowledgment that at least some UFOs are intelligently controlled craft from somewhere other than Earth"--
Debates over sex and gender within contemporary orthodoxy have intensified, evolving from women's ordination to encompass feminism, sexual orientation, marriage, family definitions, adoption, and transgender care. Initial responses to these issues are influenced by gender essentialism, which posits that male and female are fixed categories with distinct characteristics and roles in family, church, and society. This work critiques gender essentialism within the contemporary Orthodox Church, particularly through the lens of the "Paris School" of Russian émigré theologians. Employing an interdisciplinary approach, it integrates patristic reflections, personalist theological anthropology, insights from gender and queer theory, and modern biological perspectives on sexual differentiation. Despite their apparent differences, these discourses reveal surprising convergences, advocating for a more nuanced understanding beyond a strict gender binary. The study culminates in exploring the theological implications of these findings regarding women's ordination, same-sex unions, sacramental marriage, family definitions, and pastoral care for intersex, transgender, and nonbinary individuals.
