{"product_id":"2940015911961","title":"The Annotated Zeno","description":"Why shouldn't religion be created by each of us,\u003cbr\u003efor himself or herself? Instead, we are asked to\u003cbr\u003ebelieve in this or that god, fabricated by a stranger,\u003cbr\u003efor his or her own amusement and salvation,\u003cbr\u003eand there is nothing of our own in it. Make your\u003cbr\u003eown god, and, having done so, bring him or her\u003cbr\u003eto life. Your god isn't a golden calf, but a living\u003cbr\u003epart of you, he or she is a god made of your feelings,\u003cbr\u003emorals, and metaphysical yearnings. Your\u003cbr\u003egod has chosen you, just you and nobody else.\u003cbr\u003eAny god who chooses to rule more than one man\u003cbr\u003eor woman is a potential tyrant. Let your god contend\u003cbr\u003ein peace with everyone else's and neither\u003cbr\u003ehe nor she or you will be able to oppress and be\u003cbr\u003eoppressed. To create god and religion is the ultimate\u003cbr\u003efreedom offered by Zeno's method.","brand":"Mask Island Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47121279123696,"sku":"2940015911961","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015911961_p0.jpg?v=1763634910","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015911961","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
