Podcast appearances and mentions of Johannes Gutenberg

It's Thursday, May 8th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Iran continues to imprison Christian pastor and wife Authorities in Iran continue to hold a pastor's wife, 56-year-old Lida Alexani, in solitary confinement after arresting the pastor, reports Article 18. Iranian-Armenian pastor Joseph Shahbazian was arrested in February and sent to the infamous Evin Prison in Tehran. He has faced prison time before for participating in a house church and collecting tithes. Authorities also arrested his wife last month. Iran has criminalized offering tithes to support church activities. The country is ranked ninth on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  India launched air strikes on Pakistan On Tuesday, India launched air strikes on Pakistan. India said it was in retaliation for an attack last month from alleged Pakistani nationals. India and Pakistan are on the brink of a wider conflict. Local church leaders are calling for Christians to pray for the countries. Bishop Nadeem Kamran is the head of the Anglican Church of Pakistan's Diocese of Lahore. He told Christian Daily International, “As the fear of war looms over the subcontinent, I ask all Christians in the two countries to observe … a day of prayer and fasting for peace in the region.” In 1 Timothy 2:1-2, the Apostle Paul wrote, “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.” Trump's truce with Houthis On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced a truce with the Houthis in Yemen. The United States has been carrying out strikes on the Houthis in Yemen for weeks. This is in response to the Houthis attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea. Despite the truce, the Houthis said they will continue attacks on Israel in support of Palestinians in Gaza. Listen to Trump's comments at an Oval Office meeting. TRUMP: “The Houthis have announced that they don't want to fight anymore. We will honor that. We will stop the bombings. They have capitulated.” Trump will rebuild and reopen Alcatraz off San Francisco coast President Trump announced Sunday he is directing the Bureau of Prisons to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz. The small island is located 1.25 miles offshore from San Francisco near the Golden Gate Strait. The island was developed in the mid-19th century with facilities for a lighthouse, a military fortification, and a military prison. In 1934, the island was converted into a federal prison, Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary. The strong currents around the island and cold water temperatures made escape nearly impossible. The prison became one of the most notorious in American history. Trump posted on Truth Social that the infamous former prison will “house America's most ruthless and violent Offenders. We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals, who came into our Country illegally. The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE.” The prison closed 60 years ago, but once housed the likes of Al Capone, George “Machine Gun” Kelly, and James “Whitey” Bulger. HHS denounces misguided treatments for gender confusion The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services released a report last Thursday, denouncing so-called treatments for gender confusion. The study evaluated the impact of transgender drugs and surgeries on children.  The department noted, “These interventions carry risk of significant harms including infertility/sterility, sexual dysfunction, impaired bone density accrual, adverse cognitive impacts, cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders, psychiatric disorders, surgical complications, and regret.” Federal Reserve keeps interest rate in the 4.25%-4.5% range The Federal Reserve decided to keep interest rates unchanged on Wednesday.  The Fed's benchmark interest rate remains at 4.25% to 4.5%. The Fed warned of potentially higher unemployment and inflation as the economy adjusts to President Trump's tariff plan. Meanwhile, Trump continues to call for lower interest rates. World's largest page of Bible just printed to honor Gutenberg Press And finally, the International Gutenberg Society printed the world's largest page of the Bible, measuring 38 square yards, on April 26th, 2025 in Mainz, Germany. The event commemorated the 625th anniversary of the birth of Johannes Gutenberg. The German inventor created the moveable-type printing press. And he produced the first printed version of the Bible. The Gutenberg printing press revolutionized the dissemination of the Bible, making it more accessible to a wider audience than ever before. Prior to Gutenberg's invention, Bibles were hand-copied, a laborious process that made them expensive and rare. The printing press allowed for mass production, increasing availability and lowering costs. This led to a surge in literacy, the spread of the Bible, and Christianity. The commemorative event showcased a massive copy of the first page of John's Gospel. It was made from the largest industrial paper rolls available and covered nearly 400 square feet.  John 1:1-4 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, May 8th, my 59th birthday, in the year of our Lord 2025. Subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

God has used many people and inventions to further the Word of God throughout all generations. One such man was Johannes Gutenberg who is credited with some of the greatest improvements in the printing industry. His improvements led to the propagation of the Word of God throughout Europe which opened the eyes of many Europeans to the truths of Scripture.

Zum 625. Geburtstag von Johannes Gutenberg wird eine übergroße Bibelseite im Mainzer Dom aufgehängt. Zu sehen ist der Anfang des Johannes-Evangeliums. Autorin Eva Reuter denkt über die Bedeutung des gedruckten Wortes nach.

This podcast is now well into its fourth year and I have established my process for research, script writing and recording. As for research, that usually means going to the London Library and bend down to the lowest shelf to dig up some age-old copy of a German language book that happens to be the one and only works that goes into the kind of detail on the topic at hand you guys have gotten used to. Imagine my confusion when I started looking into Johannes Gutenberg and found not just a few books, but whole shelves of books in English, German, French, Italian and dozens more talking about even the most intricate details of the life and works of the inventor of the printing press.Drowning in this avalanche of material, I realized that at a minimum this story requires two episodes, one about how Gutenberg came to achieve this breakthrough and then the impact his invention had on the world and on the Germans in particular. Hence today's episode is about the man and his invention, though about the man we know so very little….And here is a video that helps understnding how the machine works: How a Gutenberg Printing Press WorksAnd a book recommendation: The Gutenberg revolution : the story of a genius and an invention that changed the world : Man, John, 1941- : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet ArchiveThe music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

¿Cómo hacer publicidad digital efectiva? Pareciera que anunciar un servicio o producto, con tanta tecnología que existe, es a prueba de errores, pero no, hacer publicidad digital efectiva tiene sus retos. El experto José Ramón Fernández nos habla de ellos.Antes de la publicidad digital efectiva, hubo otra publicidadPara hablar de publicidad digital efectiva, quiero antes compartir una pequeña reseña histórica sobre la publicidad. OrígenesAntigua Babilonia, año 3000 a.C: allí se encontró una tablilla de arcilla que anunciaba los servicios de un zapatero, un escribano y un comerciante de ungüentos alrededor. En el antiguo Egipto, se descubrió un papiro en el que un esclavista buscaba a un esclavo fugitivo. En las civilizaciones griega y romana, los pregoneros anunciaban productos y eventos en plazas, acompañados a menudo por músicos para atraer al público.La imprentaEl invento de la imprenta por Johannes Gutenberg en el siglo XV marcó un hito. El reproducir textos de manera masiva permitió la difusión de anuncios en almanaques y, luego, en periódicos. Así se crearon las bases para la publicidad impresa para llegar a mas gente.Las agenciasLa Revolución Industrial en el siglo XIX trajo una producción en masa de bienes. Esto incrementó la competencia y la necesidad de destacar. Entonces surgieron las primeras agencias publicitarias. En 1841, Volney B. Palmer inauguró en Filadelfia una oficina que se considera la primera agencia de publicidad. La primera en habla hispana fue la de Rafael Roldós fundó en 1872 en Barcelona, España. Hoy sigue activa.La Imagen de marcaA mediados del siglo XX, se introdujo el concepto de "imagen de marca". El legendario publicista David Ogilvy, hablaba de construir una imagen sólida y coherente de marca. Decía: "Dentro de cada marca hay un producto, pero no todos los productos son marcas". Esta perspectiva llevó a las agencias a centrarse en la creatividad y en la construcción de identidad de marca.La era digital y la IACon la llegada y expansión de internet, la publicidad digital se volvió clave. Las plataformas permiten más segmentación y más interacción. Ahora, la IA está revolucionando la industria. La IA puede generar contenidos, personalizar mensajes y optimizar campañas en tiempo real. Esto también plantea desafíos como la replicación de sesgos y ser transparentes con los clientes. Un experto nos habla de publicidad digital efectivaJR Fernández es un estratega en marketing digital que transforma media buyers en líderes estratégicos. Tiene más de 25 años marcando tendencias. JR ha triunfado incluso en condiciones difíciles, creando un mercado inexistente.  Por ejemplo en Cuba, gestionó un negocio con ventas de más de $10,000 diarios. En alguna ocasión, perdió €50,000 en minutos. Esto lo convirtió en lecciones que generan resultados. Trabaja con negocios de todos los tamaños, que facturan más de 1.000 millones al año.Publicidad Digital Efectiva, Publicidad, Marca, José Ramón Fernández,  podcast, Podcast Corporativo, Comunicación Organizacional, Recursos Humanos, Desarrollo Profesional, Desarrollo Personal, Comunicación Efectiva, Santiago Ríos, Mil PalabrasRecuerda por favor escucharnos y suscribirte en la plataforma que más te guste:https://podcasts.apple.com/co/podcast/mil-palabras/id1472769024 https://open.spotify.com/show/4ntUNh1i9rPue1MkeuEYLs http://bit.ly/googleMPhttps://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mil-palabras--4898895https://www.deezer.com/mx/show/1872052Para participar, escríbeme tus comentarios a santiagorios@milpalabras.com.coRecursos recomendados en este PodcastSitio web: https://jrfernandez.es/Linkedind: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jrhabana/Suscríbete al http://www.milpalabras.com enhttp://www.milpalabras.comDescarga GRATIS el ebook “Cómo Crear un Podcast Corporativo”https://milpalabras.com.co/Otros podcasts recomendados de nuestra redUn café con tu futuroLas mejores prácticas empresariales para crecer como profesional y como persona. https://open.spotify.com/show/4co1YTWtzayrl9ppGd7LQE?si=b6af076661b0483c Logística que TrasciendeAquí encuentras las voces del sector logístico con las mejores prácticas e historias que han contribuido al crecimiento económico de industrias, negocios y naciones.https://milpalabras.com.co/podcast/logistica-que-trasciende/Experiencia TechLas voces de los líderes que hacen posible la evolución y la transformación digital.

A long time ago, people had to copy books by hand, which took a very long time. Then, Johannes Gutenberg invented a special machine called the printing press. It helped make books much faster and cheaper, so more people could read and learn new things. His invention changed the world by spreading ideas and knowledge to everyone. Without Gutenberg, we might not have books, newspapers, or even the internet the way we do today! In this episode, we’ll learn how one man’s big idea helped create the way we share information today.

Vynálezce knihtisku Johannes Gutenberg zemřel 3. února 1468. Od konce 17. století je jeho hrob neznámý, protože františkánský kostel v Mohuči, kde našel místo posledního odpočinku, lehl popelem. Mohlo by se zdát, že tím jeho příběh končí, ale opak je pravdou. Díky jeho převratné nové technologii vznikla první tištěná kniha, čímž zahájil novou éru sdílení informací. Objev měl obrovský dopad na další lidské dějiny, jak z hlediska kulturního, tak sociálního.Všechny díly podcastu Příběhy z kalendáře můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

Der deutsche Autor, Historiker und Philosoph Dr. Klaus-Rüdiger Mai schrieb Biographien über die großen und bedeutenden, aber auch über die kontroversen Persönlichkeiten aus Geschichte und Zeitgeschichte – von Martin Luther und Johannes Gutenberg über Michail Gorbatschow bis hin zu Sahra Wagenknecht. In seinem neuesten, am 26. November 2024 erschienenen Werk widmet er sich nun der Ex-Kanzlerin der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, Angela Merkel, die am selbigen Tag unter dem Titel „Freiheit” auch ihre eigenen Memoiren veröffentlichte. Mais Buch trägt – der Eigendarstellung Merkels entgegen – den Untertitel „Eine kritische Biographie“. Im Podcast-Gespräch erzählt Mai von Merkels Vergangenheit, ihrem Werdegang und ihrem politischen Wirken und den „vier Sargnägeln“ ihrer teils umstrittenen Politik für Deutschland.Host: Alexander Rasthofer, Forschungskoordinator des Deutsch-Ungarischen Instituts am MCCGast: Dr. Klaus-Rüdiger Mai, Autor des Buches „Angela Merkel: Zwischen Legende und Wirklichkeit – Eine kritische Biografie”Az MCC Podcast adásaiban érdekes emberekkel izgalmas témákról beszélgetünk.

Based on the legend of Pope Joan.By professor98. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. The following account is fiction, which is based on the well-documented Legend of Pope Joan, the first, and last female Pope of the Catholic Church.As this story took place in the ninth century of the Christian era, or Year of our Lord; many of the terms are from ancient languages. Words such as slitten, which is Old English for slit, and sheath, later referred to as ‘cunny' or cunt. Although the specific accounts were not taken down on paper, the story refers to certain facts in which the legend was based.In the year of our lord, 823 A D, a girl, Joanna Wellen was born in a small village not far from Salisbury Plain in southern England. He mother died due to complications of the birth. As she grew, she would often visit Stonehenge, with her father who treated her with great love and affection. Stonehenge was a religious center, and an astronomical observatory; which lay not far from their village. It was used as a place of worship, especially by the surfs and peasants who were not allowed to attend Church.In those days in England and Europe for that matter, females were considered worthless and only good for birthing babies, cooking, scrubbing and cleaning for a man. They were not allowed to go to school, as society thought them incapable of learning.Joanna grew up as a scullery maid and worked on her Father's farm for years. From the time she learned to speak, Joan always wanted to learn about everything, so when she was fifteen and began to clean house for the village schoolteacher, they became friends and when she was not working, she begged him to teach her to read.As her father loved her very much, he had no complaints regarding her studies, and invited the schoolteacher for supper, four evenings a week in payment for teaching her.After several years, the schoolteacher, one Edmund Beddus was married to a fairly well to do somewhat older widow, Gwendolyn Vaughan, who's late husband was killed in a horseback ridding accident. It was not well known at the time; however he was drunk. As Edmund didn't earn much money, he jumped at the chance to marry Gwendolyn, mostly for her stature and wealth.After a while, Gwendolyn became angry due to the attention Edmund paid to Joan and threatened him with a divorce. Edmond ended his three-year relationship with the girl, and she had to return all of the books she had borrowed.The young village priest Father Paul had always seen Joan walking with a book in her hands and was taken with her beauty. One day he saw her passing the church, however she had no book. He called to her and said,"Are you no longer reading Joan?""I no longer have books available to me, Father." She said."Well Joan, if ever you wish books to read again, feel free to come by the rectory after supper and I will let you read some that belong to the church."This was a very special offer as there were no libraries and all books were written by hand. It would be six hundred years before; Johannes Gutenberg would invent moveable type and print his first bible.The following evening, after making supper for her Father, Joan walked to the church and knocked on the rectory door. Father Paul answered and invited her in. As the parish was pour, they only had four books. One was a bible, the second was a book called, "Entrance to Heaven", which was a guide for priests.The third and fourth were written in Latin, a language in which Joan had no knowledge. Father Paul told her to be seated by the fire, picked up the book in Latin and began to read."When a priest has a craving for a physical union, it is the duty of all females to give themselves to him willingly. This is the law of God. Sexual union is God's reward to everyone who follows his decrees. The female shall spread her legs wide and allow the priest to enter her with his phallic member."Father what is a phallic member?""All males have a phallic member Joan. It is the essence of a man.""I have no knowledge of such essence. What will it do?""It is the instrument that will allow a female to see God.""Do you have your phallic member with you Father Paul?""Yes, I do.""May I see it Father?""Of course my child."Father Paul lifted his short tunic and revealed his penis and testicles. Joan was very interested and asked how she would be able to see God, with his instrument. The Father invited her to repose on his bed of straw, and he would display the power of his essence.When she complied, Father Paul knelt down and lifted her tattered dress, revealing her slitten, the entrance to her passageway. As he spread her legs, Joan wondered what he was doing and why. In her eighteen years she had never heard of this type of ritual, and wondered who had written the book.Kneeling between Joan's legs, Paul stripped off his tunic and was naked before her; his member became erect and was pointing toward the ceiling. As he bent forward, and guided his penis toward the opening to her vagina, she wondered if she would really see God. A priest would never lie to her, she thought.As Father Paul rubbed the large head of his phallus up and down her damp slitten, she became more interested in his movements. They felt strangely pleasing, and her slitten began to tickle and was becoming very warm, and wet. She had felt nothing like this in her short life.It was wonderful and caused her to breath harder. Slowly Paul began to move his penis into her vagina and she screamed in pain. It felt as though he was entering her with a double-egged sword. She knew right then, she was about to see God, as his phallus would surly end her life. She had never experienced a pain such as this. Father Paul was deep into her vagina, and moving fast as she lay under him, her tears flowed down her cheeks as she waited for impending death.However as he continued to move, her pain was subsiding and pleasure was replacing it. She believed that Father moving his phallus in and out of her; was devoid of wisdom and good sense.Other than a nice feeling from between her legs, the whole process seemed fruitless, and a bit pointless. He continued for some time and pointless as the process appeared to be, she was developing a wonderful feeling in her belly. Father Paul was creating a desire, which previously Joan had no knowledge of. Her belly was tingling as the Father continued his thrusts, his phallus sliding in and out of her passageway. She found herself lifting her legs, then wrapping them around Father Paul's legs, pulling him tight into her channel.As he continued, Joan's feelings for the young Father were growing at an alarming rate and her need for some kind of satisfaction was increasing. Her emotions were on a never ending latter, climbing to the sky.Without any warning, Joan felt herself begin to discharge juices with a force. She felt fulfillment and gratification of an unknown desire and appetite, which lifted her to extreme pleasure and contentment.Father Paul had not yet discharged his essence and doubled his efforts. As Joan felt his increasing movements in to her, desire began to grow again almost exponentially and she held him tight to her. Father Paul called out to heaven,"Oh Lord my God, I am your humble servant and I do your bidding."Joan felt a new gush of liquid, however it wasn't coming from her, it was coming from Father Paul. The feeling was beautiful in design and execution, and although she did not see God, she believed she was closer to him. The whole occurrence was a delicacy as to arouse intense delight, and satisfaction. Joan cared little to see God, as she was taking great pleasure and delight in his glory.Suddenly a reoccurrence of her discharge began, and she was lifted beyond the bounds of Earth. Her blood ran hot as her juices flowed once again."Your phallus is as you said Father, truly the essence of man, and God.""Remember Joan, although my member, my penis, from the Latin, if you will, is a wonderful instrument. It would be useless without your marvelous passage of desire. My penis requires your vagina to achieve its primary and sacred function. Without woman, man has little purpose in life. It is God's design."Joan knew that her existence had taken a new direction. She was truly a daughter of God, and would do everything necessary to fulfill the Heavenly Father's design. As Father Paul lay in coitus relaxen, a Latin term for rest after sexual intercourse, Joan lifted his depleted penis and examined it carefully. She found a hidden beauty within its current state, although it was much more useful when it was swollen to a larger size.She felt closer to Father Paul than she had to any individual, except maybe her own Father. The closeness was of course the feeling most women would feel to a man; who brought her such euphoria and intense pleasure. Joan felt compelled to pay homage to his member and leaned down to kiss it.It had a strange yet inexplicable odor. Not a bad odor, but one, which could not be described. She had detected a similar odor before when the farm animals were ready for breeding. Joan kissed Father Paul's member on the tip once again, and suddenly it began to throb and swell. As she unexpectedly enjoyed the taste, she slid the head of his penis into her mouth, and for some unknown, but natural desire, began to suck on it.Father Paul squirmed in delight feeling something wonderful which he only had knowledge of, during confessions of travelers to the Far East. It was told to him that Egyptian girls reveled in sucking a man's penis, and excelled in elevating a man to an ultimate level of fulfillment and gratification.Strangely he had never heard of an English female performing such a wonderful service. This was something that God and the Church made no mention of, possibly because it had nothing to do with reproduction.Joan now had a challenge and believed she would be able to master it. As she sucked the Priest's penis he moaned, apparently enjoying her oral stimulation causing him arousal, and intense pleasure beyond that of which she provided with her vagina. The priest took hold of Joan's head and moved his hips upward in a masterful manner, emulating copulation.Joan was now eager to give the young priest something he would continue to desire, throughout their newly found friendship. As she sucked him, her hand took hold of his testicles and fondled them as one might do with a favorite pet. The priest in return moaned and mewed letting her know how much the manipulations of her mouth on his penis were appreciated.With little warning the priest began to spray his bodily secretions into her mouth with a degree of fluidity that surpassed his previous performance. Joan sat up wondering what was to be done with Father Paul's essence. Would it be a sin to expel it from her mouth? As it was a gift from God, she wondered what she should do. Father Paul saw the questioning expression on Joan's face and said,"Swallow it, Joan. God would want nothing less. Essence is too important to be splattered on the floor."Although the creamy liquid felt wonderful in her mouth, she followed directions and allowed the liquid to slowly slide down her throat. Although a bit salty, the essence was also sweet. A fascinating combination she thought."Do you want me to continue reading, Joan?""No. Not tonight as I believe Morpheus, the ancient Roman god of sleep and dreams, is calling to me. May I return after supper on the morrow, Father Paul?""Of course my child. You may visit me any time you desire, and I will teach you everything I have knowledge of."Joan joins a priest, who is entertaining another person.Joan slept the sleep of chastity, although she knew that she was no longer a maiden, and deserved little satisfactory sleep. She could not understand why she had such wonderful feelings throughout her body. Apparently it was God's desire, and he was pleased with her actions.She spent the day, milking the cows, currying the horses, cooking and cleaning. She fed all of the animals and cleaned their stalls, while her father worked in the fields planting vegetables. They broke for the mid-day meal and sat together while eating. Her Father asked,"Joan, what did you learn at the church with Father Paul, last eve?""Father Paul read to me from a large book in Latin. I learned about God's design and the essence of man. He also taught me how man should best serve God, and what God expects of his children.""My daughter is such a wonderful student; and has an admirable mind, unlike her ignorant father.""Father, if it was not for your understanding and love for me, I would never have learned to read and write. You are not ignorant and I love you.""Are you going to the church tonight little one?""Yes father, if that would be convenient for you. There is much work to be done.""Of course my daughter, although I feel you deserve some enjoyment and rest. You work here all the day, then study hard after dark. A girl should also have some good times in her young life.""Believe me Father, the enjoyment I have received from God's love has been wonderful and fulfilling. My life has found new meaning and absolute pleasure. Are you remaining home on this eve?No, I plan to go to the public house and have a tall glass of warm Ale.""In moderation, father. Do not forget your last venture to the public house. You were unable to get out of bed long past sunrise.""Yes daughter, I recall. I will only have a pint or so."Father and daughter then parted company. Joan washed the dishes, swept the floors, and then went out to feed the hogs. He father returned to his planting. They would have a good harvest on the year.Supper came and went. As night fell, Joan fed the fireplace and as the light danced on the walls of the room, she wondered if Father Paul would elevate her with his phallus and essence. Taking a torch from its storage place, she shoved the end of it into the fire. The tip burned brightly, warming her face.Leaving the house, she trudged up the path, in the dark toward the rectory. Upon arriving, Joan opened the door and walked in. Father Paul was naked and laying on top of her close friend Lily, a postulate, or nun-in-training. His phallus was deeply imbedded in her sheath.Joan stood there and watched as Father Paul continued to enter into and permeate her vagina, helping her temporarily ascend to heaven's gate. Lily was much involved in Father Paul's God-like movements, and was sinking her nails in his back, moaning loud and mumbling,"More Father Paul, more. Send me to see God."Joan sat in a chair, next to the bed of straw and watched as the Father's penis slid in and out of her friend. Everything seemed to be very wet and coated with a viscous liquid, and a small amount of blood. Joan wondered if it would be better for her to withdraw, as Father was fully involved in her friend."Joan", said Paul. "Please disrobe and join us in the bed. We can all do the Lord's work together."Quickly, as Father Paul began to eject his essence into the young girl, she moaned loudly and began to squirt her juices, pumping them past Father's penis and onto his testical sack.She stated to the priest; "More Father Paul, please do more. I want God to love me.""God does love you, my child, more than most women, whom would refuse to share their sacred passage with the sons of the church."Joan shed her clothing and joined the couple on the bed of straw, which was covered with a sheet like covering. Father rolled off of the girl as she lay in a semi unconscious state, moaning lightly.Joan took hold of Paul's phallus and began to stroke it as she had done the evening prior. It took some patient time and affectionate gestures of fondness, however when his penis again became tumescent, Joan lifted her leg over him and eased down onto his lap, allowing his coccus to impale her tight moist vagina.She moved front to back, feeling the priest's huge member inside of her, thanking God in a little prayer for bringing such knowledge and pleasure to her.She was full of cheer as she thought there would be more pain associated with another coupling, however she now understood that the

It was used as a place of worship, especially by the surfs and peasants who were not allowed to attend Church.In those days in England and Europe for that matter, females were considered worthless and only good for birthing babies, cooking, scrubbing and cleaning for a man. They were not allowed to go to school, as society thought them incapable of learning.Joanna grew up as a scullery maid and worked on her Father's farm for years. From the time she learned to speak, Joan always wanted to learn about everything, so when she was fifteen and began to clean house for the village schoolteacher, they became friends and when she was not working, she begged him to teach her to read.As her father loved her very much, he had no complaints regarding her studies, and invited the schoolteacher for supper, four evenings a week in payment for teaching her.After several years, the schoolteacher, one Edmund Beddus was married to a fairly well to do somewhat older widow, Gwendolyn Vaughan, who's late husband was killed in a horseback ridding accident. It was not well known at the time; however he was drunk. As Edmund didn't earn much money, he jumped at the chance to marry Gwendolyn, mostly for her stature and wealth.After a while, Gwendolyn became angry due to the attention Edmund paid to Joan and threatened him with a divorce. Edmond ended his three-year relationship with the girl, and she had to return all of the books she had borrowed.The young village priest Father Paul had always seen Joan walking with a book in her hands and was taken with her beauty. One day he saw her passing the church, however she had no book. He called to her and said,"Are you no longer reading Joan?""I no longer have books available to me, Father." She said."Well Joan, if ever you wish books to read again, feel free to come by the rectory after supper and I will let you read some that belong to the church."This was a very special offer as there were no libraries and all books were written by hand. It would be six hundred years before; Johannes Gutenberg would invent moveable type and print his first bible.The following evening, after making supper for her Father, Joan walked to the church and knocked on the rectory door. Father Paul answered and invited her in. As the parish was pour, they only had four books. One was a bible, the second was a book called, "Entrance to Heaven", which was a guide for priests.The third and fourth were written in Latin, a language in which Joan had no knowledge. Father Paul told her to be seated by the fire, picked up the book in Latin and began to read."When a priest has a craving for a physical union, it is the duty of all females to give themselves to him willingly. This is the law of God. Sexual union is God's reward to everyone who follows his decrees. The female shall spread her legs wide and allow the priest to enter her with his phallic member."Father what is a phallic member?""All males have a phallic member Joan. It is the essence of a man.""I have no knowledge of such essence. What will it do?""It is the instrument that will allow a female to see God.""Do you have your phallic member with you Father Paul?""Yes, I do.""May I see it Father?""Of course my child."Father Paul lifted his short tunic and revealed his penis and testicles. Joan was very interested and asked how she would be able to see God, with his instrument. The Father invited her to repose on his bed of straw, and he would display the power of his essence.When she complied, Father Paul knelt down and lifted her tattered dress, revealing her slitten, the entrance to her passageway. As he spread her legs, Joan wondered what he was doing and why. In her eighteen years she had never heard of this type of ritual, and wondered who had written the book.Kneeling between Joan's legs, Paul stripped off his tunic and was naked before her; his member became erect and was pointing toward the ceiling. As he bent forward, and guided his penis toward the opening to her vagina, she wondered if she would really see God. A priest would never lie to her, she thought.As Father Paul rubbed the large head of his phallus up and down her damp slitten, she became more interested in his movements. They felt strangely pleasing, and her slitten began to tickle and was becoming very warm, and wet. She had felt nothing like this in her short life.It was wonderful and caused her to breath harder. Slowly Paul began to move his penis into her vagina and she screamed in pain. It felt as though he was entering her with a double-egged sword. She knew right then, she was about to see God, as his phallus would surly end her life. She had never experienced a pain such as this. Father Paul was deep into her vagina, and moving fast as she lay under him, her tears flowed down her cheeks as she waited for impending death.However as he continued to move, her pain was subsiding and pleasure was replacing it. She believed that Father moving his phallus in and out of her; was devoid of wisdom and good sense.Other than a nice feeling from between her legs, the whole process seemed fruitless, and a bit pointless. He continued for some time and pointless as the process appeared to be, she was developing a wonderful feeling in her belly. Father Paul was creating a desire, which previously Joan had no knowledge of. Her belly was tingling as the Father continued his thrusts, his phallus sliding in and out of her passageway. She found herself lifting her legs, then wrapping them around Father Paul's legs, pulling him tight into her channel.As he continued, Joan's feelings for the young Father were growing at an alarming rate and her need for some kind of satisfaction was increasing. Her emotions were on a never ending latter, climbing to the sky.Without any warning, Joan felt herself begin to discharge juices with a force. She felt fulfillment and gratification of an unknown desire and appetite, which lifted her to extreme pleasure and contentment.Father Paul had not yet discharged his essence and doubled his efforts. As Joan felt his increasing movements in to her, desire began to grow again almost exponentially and she held him tight to her. Father Paul called out to heaven,"Oh Lord my God, I am your humble servant and I do your bidding."Joan felt a new gush of liquid, however it wasn't coming from her, it was coming from Father Paul. The feeling was beautiful in design and execution, and although she did not see God, she believed she was closer to him. The whole occurrence was a delicacy as to arouse intense delight, and satisfaction. Joan cared little to see God, as she was taking great pleasure and delight in his glory.Suddenly a reoccurrence of her discharge began, and she was lifted beyond the bounds of Earth. Her blood ran hot as her juices flowed once again."Your phallus is as you said Father, truly the essence of man, and God.""Remember Joan, although my member, my penis, from the Latin, if you will, is a wonderful instrument. It would be useless without your marvelous passage of desire. My penis requires your vagina to achieve its primary and sacred function. Without woman, man has little purpose in life. It is God's design."Joan knew that her existence had taken a new direction. She was truly a daughter of God, and would do everything necessary to fulfill the Heavenly Father's design. As Father Paul lay in coitus relaxen, a Latin term for rest after sexual intercourse, Joan lifted his depleted penis and examined it carefully. She found a hidden beauty within its current state, although it was much more useful when it was swollen to a larger size.She felt closer to Father Paul than she had to any individual, except maybe her own Father. The closeness was of course the feeling most women would feel to a man; who brought her such euphoria and intense pleasure. Joan felt compelled to pay homage to his member and leaned down to kiss it.It had a strange yet inexplicable odor. Not a bad odor, but one, which could not be described. She had detected a similar odor before when the farm animals were ready for breeding. Joan kissed Father Paul's member on the tip once again, and suddenly it began to throb and swell. As she unexpectedly enjoyed the taste, she slid the head of his penis into her mouth, and for some unknown, but natural desire, began to suck on it.Father Paul squirmed in delight feeling something wonderful which he only had knowledge of, during confessions of travelers to the Far East. It was told to him that Egyptian girls reveled in sucking a man's penis, and excelled in elevating a man to an ultimate level of fulfillment and gratification.Strangely he had never heard of an English female performing such a wonderful service. This was something that God and the Church made no mention of, possibly because it had nothing to do with reproduction.Joan now had a challenge and believed she would be able to master it. As she sucked the Priest's penis he moaned, apparently enjoying her oral stimulation causing him arousal, and intense pleasure beyond that of which she provided with her vagina. The priest took hold of Joan's head and moved his hips upward in a masterful manner, emulating copulation.Joan was now eager to give the young priest something he would continue to desire, throughout their newly found friendship. As she sucked him, her hand took hold of his testicles and fondled them as one might do with a favorite pet. The priest in return moaned and mewed letting her know how much the manipulations of her mouth on his penis were appreciated.With little warning the priest began to spray his bodily secretions into her mouth with a degree of fluidity that surpassed his previous performance. Joan sat up wondering what was to be done with Father Paul's essence. Would it be a sin to expel it from her mouth? As it was a gift from God, she wondered what she should do. Father Paul saw the questioning expression on Joan's face and said,"Swallow it, Joan. God would want nothing less. Essence is too important to be splattered on the floor."Although the creamy liquid felt wonderful in her mouth, she followed directions and allowed the liquid to slowly slide down her throat. Although a bit salty, the essence was also sweet. A fascinating combination she thought."Do you want me to continue reading, Joan?""No. Not tonight as I believe Morpheus, the ancient Roman god of sleep and dreams, is calling to me. May I return after supper on the morrow, Father Paul?""Of course my child. You may visit me any time you desire, and I will teach you everything I have knowledge of."Joan joins a priest, who is entertaining another person.Joan slept the sleep of chastity, although she knew that she was no longer a maiden, and deserved little satisfactory sleep. She could not understand why she had such wonderful feelings throughout her body. Apparently it was God's desire, and he was pleased with her actions.She spent the day, milking the cows, currying the horses, cooking and cleaning. She fed all of the animals and cleaned their stalls, while her father worked in the fields planting vegetables. They broke for the mid-day meal and sat together while eating. Her Father asked,"Joan, what did you learn at the church with Father Paul, last eve?""Father Paul read to me from a large book in Latin. I learned about God's design and the essence of man. He also taught me how man should best serve God, and what God expects of his children.""My daughter is such a wonderful student; and has an admirable mind, unlike her ignorant father.""Father, if it was not for your understanding and love for me, I would never have learned to read and write. You are not ignorant and I love you.""Are you going to the church tonight little one?""Yes father, if that would be convenient for you. There is much work to be done.""Of course my daughter, although I feel you deserve some enjoyment and rest. You work here all the day, then study hard after dark. A girl should also have some good times in her young life.""Believe me Father, the enjoyment I have received from God's love has been wonderful and fulfilling. My life has found new meaning and absolute pleasure. Are you remaining home on this eve?No, I plan to go to the public house and have a tall glass of warm Ale.""In moderation, father. Do not forget your last venture to the public house. You were unable to get out of bed long past sunrise.""Yes daughter, I recall. I will only have a pint or so."Father and daughter then parted company. Joan washed the dishes, swept the floors, and then went out to feed the hogs. He father returned to his planting. They would have a good harvest on the year.Supper came and went. As night fell, Joan fed the fireplace and as the light danced on the walls of the room, she wondered if Father Paul would elevate her with his phallus and essence. Taking a torch from its storage place, she shoved the end of it into the fire. The tip burned brightly, warming her face.Leaving the house, she trudged up the path, in the dark toward the rectory. Upon arriving, Joan opened the door and walked in. Father Paul was naked and laying on top of her close friend Lily, a postulate, or nun-in-training. His phallus was deeply imbedded in her sheath.Joan stood there and watched as Father Paul continued to enter into and permeate her vagina, helping her temporarily ascend to heaven's gate. Lily was much involved in Father Paul's God-like movements, and was sinking her nails in his back, moaning loud and mumbling,"More Father Paul, more. Send me to see God."Joan sat in a chair, next to the bed of straw and watched as the Father's penis slid in and out of her friend. Everything seemed to be very wet and coated with a viscous liquid, and a small amount of blood. Joan wondered if it would be better for her to withdraw, as Father was fully involved in her friend."Joan", said Paul. "Please disrobe and join us in the bed. We can all do the Lord's work together."Quickly, as Father Paul began to eject his essence into the young girl, she moaned loudly and began to squirt her juices, pumping them past Father's penis and onto his testical sack.She stated to the priest; "More Father Paul, please do more. I want God to love me.""God does love you, my child, more than most women, whom would refuse to share their sacred passage with the sons of the church."Joan shed her clothing and joined the couple on the bed of straw, which was covered with a sheet like covering. Father rolled off of the girl as she lay in a semi unconscious state, moaning lightly.Joan took hold of Paul's phallus and began to stroke it as she had done the evening prior. It took some patient time and affectionate gestures of fondness, however when his penis again became tumescent, Joan lifted her leg over him and eased down onto his lap, allowing his coccus to impale her tight moist vagina.She moved front to back, feeling the priest's huge member inside of her, thanking God in a little prayer for bringing such knowledge and pleasure to her.She was full of cheer as she thought there would be more pain associated with another coupling, however she now understood that the

Johannes Gutenberg löste zur Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts nicht weniger als eine Medienrevolution aus. Mit seinen beweglichen Lettern war es fortan möglich, Texte in bisher ungeahnter Geschwindigkeit zu vervielfältigen. Doch das Druckerhandwerk musste erst seinen Platz in der spätmittelalterlichen Medienlandschaft finden und verhaftete daher zunächst bei teils Jahrhunderte alten Traditionen, die handgeschriebene Bücher etabliert hatten. Erst mit der Zeit emanzipierte sich der Druck zu einem eigenständigen Medium. Mit dem Bibliothekar und Druckexperten Philipp Heil werfen wir einen genauen Blick in die Druckerwerkstätten der Zeit und beleuchten detailliert die einzelnen Schritte des neu entstandenen Druckhandwerks.

En este episodio especial nos sumergimos un poco en el mundo de la patrística. Como invitado tenemos a fray Jose Jaime Perez Lucio, dominico que reside en México, donde estudió filosofía y teología. Recientemente terminó su licenciatura en teología en la universidad Johannes Gutenberg de Mainz, Alemania. Su investigación giró en torno a la historia de la Iglesia antigua y a la patrística, concentrándose particularmente en el pensamiento de Orígenes y Clemente de Alejandría. Su tesis, en donde examinó la idea de la Apokatástasis en estos dos autores alejandrinos, es el tema del que nos va a hablar hoy.

It's Monday, September 2nd, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Afghan Muslims coming to faith in Christ The last time Khada saw her husband was an ordinary day – or as ordinary as any day can be in Afghanistan since the Taliban takeover in 2021, reports Open Doors. Afghan citizens face daily restrictions, oppression and danger, especially for underground Christians like Khada and her husband, Ehsan. Khada was born into a deeply religious Muslim family. She expected to follow the same path as her mother: marry the Muslim man chosen by her parents and raise a devout Muslim family herself. Her Christian boss did something very gutsy. She gave Khada a Bible. In Afghanistan, even before the Taliban takeover, it was extremely risky to give a Muslim a Bible. It's illegal to convert from Islam and very dangerous to share your Christian faith. Over the next six months, the Muslim couple read through the Bible together.  After trusting Christ as their Savior, they shared their new-found faith with relatives, many of whom also became Christians, despite the risks. Tragically, Eshan was killed by Muslim extremists for abandoning the false prophet of Mohammad. One Open Doors field worker said, “Despite hardships, believers' unwavering faith in Jesus Christ motivates them to operate covertly, spreading the good news among their fellow Afghans.” Prayerfully consider giving $4 to supply a Bible or $22 to help pay for a Christian radio broadcast into Afghanistan through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. According to Open Doors, Afghanistan is the 10th most dangerous country worldwide in which to be a Christian. Pray the same prayer for our Afghan brothers and sisters in Christ as the Apostle Paul asked believers to pray for him. In Ephesians 6:19-20, he wrote, “Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel. … Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.” Kamala Harris delivered generalities in CNN interview Last Thursday night, CNN's Dana Bash sat down with Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz for her first interview in 40 days.  Kamala spoke in generalities right out of the gate. BASH: “The voters are really eager to hear what your plans are. If you are elected, what would you do on day one in the White House?” HARRIS: “There are a number of things I will tell you. First and foremost, one of my highest priorities, is to do what we can to support and strengthen the middle class. When I look at the aspirations, the goals, the ambitions of the American people, I think that people are ready for a new way forward, in a way that generations of Americans have been fueled by, by hope and by optimism. I think, sadly, in the last decade, we have had in the former president, someone who has really been pushing an agenda and an environment that is about diminishing the character and the strength of who we are as Americans, dividing our nation, and I think people are ready to turn the page on that.” BASH: “So, what would you do Day One?” HARRIS: “Day One, it's going to be about, one, implementing my plan for what I call an ‘opportunity economy.' I've already laid out a number of proposals in that regard, which include what we're going to do to bring down the cost of everyday goods, what we're going to do to invest in America's small businesses, what we're going to do to invest in families, for example, extending the child tax credit to $6,000 for families for the first year of their child's life to help them buy a car seat, to help them buy baby clothes, a crib. So, there are a number of things on Day One.” BASH: “So, you have been vice president for three and a half years. The steps that you're talking about now, why haven't you done them already?” Kamala has no regrets in describing Biden as “extraordinarily strong” CNN's Dana Bash asked Harris about her absurd and truly unbelievable defense of Biden's cognitive ability even after his June debate with Trump when Biden's mental decline was painfully obvious for all to see. BASH: “Vice President Harris, you were a very staunch defender of President Biden's capacity to serve another four years. Right after the debate, you insisted that President Biden is extraordinarily strong.  Given where we are now, do you have any regrets about what you told the American people?” HARRIS: “No, not at all.” Tim Walz confronted over lie he “served in war” CNN's Dana Bash asked Tim Walz, the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee, about his false claim that he served in war. BASH: “I want to ask you a question about how you've described your service in the National Guard. You said that you carried weapons in war, but you have never deployed actually in a war zone. A campaign official said that you misspoke. Did you?” WALZ: “Well, first of all, I'm incredibly proud. I've done 24 years of wearing uniform of this country. My record speaks for itself. But I think people are coming to you to know me. I speak like they do. I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeves. BASH: “The idea that you said that you were in war. Did you misspeak, as the campaign has said?” WALZ: “Yeah, I said we were talking about, in this case, this was after a school shooting, the idea of carrying these weapons of war. My wife, the English teacher, told me my grammar is not always correct.” J.D. Vance called Walz a liar In a separate CNN interview, Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance called Tim Walz out for his lies. VANCE: “I've never criticized what Tim Walz did when he was in the military. I criticized his lying about his own record. This is a guy who was captured on video saying, ‘I carried a gun in war.' He never went to war. “This is a guy who's been captured on video as other people say, he's an Afghanistan veteran, he's a veteran of a war, nodding along in agreement instead of saying, ‘No, no. I did serve my country, and I did it honorably, but I never went to a war zone.' I'm not criticizing Tim Walz's service. I'm criticizing the fact that he lied about his service for political gain. Dana, I do think it's scandalous behavior.” Walz confronted over two other lies But Walz' lies did not stop with his military record. BASH: “You had to clarify that you had said that you and your wife used IVF, but it turned out you used a different kind of fertility in order to have children. And then, when you ran for Congress in 2006, your campaign repeatedly made false statements about a 1995 arrest for drunken reckless driving. What do you say to voters who aren't sure whether they can take you at your word? WALZ: “I certainly own my mistakes when I make them. I spoke about the treatments that were available to us that had those beautiful children there. That's quite a contrast in folks that are trying to take those rights away from us.” For the record, Donald Trump is not trying to curtail the availability of In Vitro Fertilization at all. Historic Gutenberg Bible published August 24, 1456 And finally, August 24th, 1456 was a unique anniversary.  That's when the second volume of the Gutenberg Bible was bound in Mainz, Germany. It completed a two-year project to create the first complete book printed with movable type.  The Gutenberg Bible was named after the inventor of the unique printing press with movable type, Johannes Gutenberg. It marked the start of the "Gutenberg Revolution" and the age of printed books in the West. Proverbs 30:5 says, “Every word of God is flawless; He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, September 2nd, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Johannes Gutenberg's revolutionary printing press revolutionized communication technology and changed the world,  because it allowed for the mass production of books. Coming from a time when books were rarer than gems, the ability to make copies faster helped launch movements and scientific discoveries. Even today, communication is expanding and growing faster, and it is all due to Gutenberg.

Chapter 1What is PaperIn "Paper: Paging Through History," Mark Kurlansky unfolds the captivating saga of paper, an invention that revolutionized human civilization. With a masterful blend of narrative and insight, Kurlansky traces paper's journey from its origins in China, through the Arab world, into Europe, and across the globe. He reveals how paper has been the bedrock of knowledge dissemination, cultural development, and historical documentation. Beyond just a material for writing, paper's roles in the making of currency, art, and packaging unfold its profound impact on societies. Kurlansky challenges the conventional view of the digital age rendering paper obsolete, showcasing its enduring relevance. This book is not only a history lesson but a medium reflecting on the broader implications of technological change and innovation's role in shaping civilization. Through engaging anecdotes and thoughtful analysis, Kurlansky invites readers to appreciate this fundamental yet often overlooked fabric of society.Chapter 2 Meet the Writer of PaperMark Kurlansky skillfully employs a clear and engaging writing style in "Paper: Paging Through History" to convey the profound impacts of paper on human civilization. He uses concise language and a narrative approach that brings historical events and technical descriptions to life, making complex ideas accessible and enjoyable. Kurlansky integrates anecdotes and individual stories, adding a personal touch that enhances the emotional connection with the reader. His emphasis on the transformative power of paper is underscored by detailed examples and insightful analysis, effectively showing paper's role not just as a physical object but as a pivotal element in cultural and technological evolution. This approach not only informs but also evokes appreciation and nostalgia, highlighting the intricate relationship between humanity and one of its most enduring inventions.Chapter 3 Deeper Understanding of PaperPaper has had a profound impact on literature, culture, and society since its invention, and its role in shaping human civilization cannot be overstated. The origins of paper date back to 2nd century BCE China, attributed to the court official Cai Lun during the Han Dynasty. From these beginnings, paper's influence spread across the globe, revolutionizing the ways in which knowledge was disseminated and preserved. Here's how paper has shaped various aspects of human development: Literature1. Democratization of Knowledge: Before the advent of paper, information was primarily recorded on papyrus, parchment, and other materials that were expensive and less durable. Paper made it possible to produce books more cheaply and in greater quantities. This increased accessibility helped democratize knowledge, making literature and educational materials available to a broader segment of the society.2. Preservation of Works: Paper's durability and ease of use have allowed for the preservation of texts and literary works over centuries. Libraries and archives filled with paper documents have served as the custodians of human history and culture.3. Expansion of Literary Forms: The availability of paper supported the creation of new literary forms and genres, such as the novel, essays, and broadsheets. This access allowed writers to experiment with different styles and themes, which contributed to the rich diversity of global literature. Culture1. Print Culture: The invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century, combined with the use of paper, heralded the era of mass communication. This transformed the cultural landscape of Europe and later the world by facilitating widespread distribution of ideas, literature, and art.2. Educational Reforms: With books and educational materials more accessible due to paper, literacy rates...

Johannes Gutenberg: El hombre que revolucionó la imprenta Johannes Gutenberg fue un inventor alemán del siglo XV, considerado el padre de la imprenta moderna con tipos móviles. Su invento supuso un punto de inflexión en la historia de la comunicación y el conocimiento, con un impacto duradero en la cultura occidental. Nacimiento y primeros años: Se cree que Johannes Gutenberg nació entre 1393 y 1406 en Maguncia, Sacro Imperio Romano Germánico (actual Alemania). Sobre su infancia y juventud se conoce poco, aunque se sabe que su familia pertenecía a la clase alta y se dedicaba al comercio de telas. El invento revolucionario: Si bien la imprenta de tipos móviles ya existía en China, Gutenberg no la copió, sino que la reinventó de forma más eficiente y adaptable. Sus principales contribuciones fueron: Molde de tipos móviles: Creó un sistema de caracteres individuales hechos de metal fundido (plomo y estaño) que podían reutilizarse para componer diferentes textos. Prensa de imprenta: Diseñó una prensa especial que ejercía presión sobre los tipos entintados para transferir la impresión al papel. Tinta a base de aceite: Desarrolló una tinta a base de aceite que se adhería mejor al papel y permitía una impresión más nítida. La imprenta de Gutenberg y sus consecuencias: La invención de la imprenta de tipos móviles de Gutenberg tuvo un impacto profundo en la sociedad europea: Propagación del conocimiento: La producción de libros se multiplicó, permitiendo una difusión más amplia de la cultura, la educación y las ideas. Renacimiento europeo: La imprenta facilitó la difusión de textos clásicos y el desarrollo del pensamiento crítico, contribuyendo al florecimiento del Renacimiento. Reforma Protestante: La rápida difusión de textos religiosos gracias a la imprenta posibilitó la propagación de las ideas reformistas de Martín Lutero y el inicio de la Reforma Protestante. Legado de Johannes Gutenberg: Johannes Gutenberg, aunque no fue el primero en concebir la idea de la imprenta con tipos móviles, sí fue quien la perfeccionó y la convirtió en una tecnología práctica y accesible. Su invento transformó la forma en que se producía y transmitía la información, dejando un legado que aún hoy en día continúa vigente en el mundo de la impresión y la comunicación.

For today's discourse, I focus will be on Johannes Gutenberg, an individual of profound significance, ‎recognized for effecting a transformative revolution in the field of printing.‎

In this episode of Anatomy of a Reformation, we look at the life of Johannes Gutenberg and his world-changing, Reformation-shaping invention, The Printing Press. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/highviewpodcast/message

In the 1440s a goldsmith from Mainz called Johannes Gutenberg developed a movable type printing press which catalysed the European printing revolution. It heralded a technological leap in communication tools which had far reaching consequences for the societies of the Low Countries, particularly in urban centres where print shops were established. A large market for books already existed in the Low Countries, in no small part because of the existence of Common Life schools and subsequent high rates of general literacy. With the copying and widespread distribution of texts becoming so much quicker and easier, other fields of work began to shift and develop, as different skills and networks were needed to smoothly bring content to the public. In this episode we are going to first take a look at what a 15th century printing workshop might have been like, before meeting some of the pioneers who would pull the printing presses and perfect the processes pertaining to the profitable publication of pamphlets, prayer books and other pre-16th century paper imprinted particularities.

[REBROADCAST FROM OCTOBER 26, 2023] Broadway stars and friends Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells have reunited on the stage as two friends determined to make a hit new musical about... Johannes Gutenberg, inventor of the printing press. They join us to talk about the hilarious show, "Gutenberg! The Musical!"

Johannes Gutenberg, (nacido c. 1395, Mainz, probablemente muerto el 3 de febrero de 1468, Mainz), inventor alemán de un método de impresión de tipos móviles. Nacido en una familia patricia en Maguncia, aparentemente trabajó en oficios como la orfebrería y el corte de gemas en Maguncia y Estrasburgo y estaba experimentando con la imprenta en 1438. Obtuvo el respaldo en 1450 del financiero Johann Fust (c. 1400-1466); La impaciencia de Fust y otros factores llevaron a que Gutenberg perdiera su establecimiento ante Fust en 1455. La obra maestra de Gutenberg, y el primer libro que se imprimió con tipos móviles, es la Biblia "Cuarenta y dos líneas", terminada a más tardar en 1455. Un magnífico Salterio se publicó en 1457, tras la pérdida de su imprenta. Las únicas otras obras que aún se le atribuyen son menores. Los elementos únicos de su invento incluían un molde, con el que se podía moldear tipos con precisión y en grandes cantidades; una aleación tipo-metal; una nueva prensa, derivada de las utilizadas en la elaboración del vino, la fabricación de papel y la encuadernación; y una tinta de impresión a base de aceite. Ninguna de estas características existió en la impresión china o coreana, en la técnica europea existente de estampar letras en varias superficies o en la impresión de bloques de madera. El invento de Gutenberg, fundamental para el curso de la civilización occidental, siguió siendo la fuente de los elementos básicos de la composición tipográfica durante 500 años.

For 500 years, societies have been shaped by the authority and permanence of the printed word. What do we have to lose – or gain – when the internet renders print culture obsolete? Jeff Jarvis thinks we should look to the early print era, when Johannes Gutenberg's invention caused a moral panic across Europe, for clues […]

Broadway stars and friends Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells have reunited on the stage as two friends determined to make a hit new musical about... Johannes Gutenberg, inventor of the printing press. They join us for the whole hour to talk about the hilarious new show, "Gutenberg! The Musical!"

For Josh Gad, the path to returning to Broadway following his star-making performance in ‘Book of Mormon' wasn't easy. “Book of Mormon is a once in a generation thing...you're not going to replicate that. So why are you trying,” Gad told Newsweek's H. Alan Scott. But one part Gad is willing to replicate from his ‘Mormon' days in his new musical, ‘Gutenberg! The Musical!' (currently on Broadway) is his ‘Mormon' co-star, Andrew Rannells, who “literally makes me better every time I'm on stage next to him.” The musical follows Bud (Gad), the “naive one,” and Doug (Rannells) as they workshop a musical about the less-than-factual story of Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of the printing press. “Gutenberg gives us a chance to come back and flex our muscles comedically in a way that is both familiar, but different.” Gad calls the physicality of ‘Gutenberg' “20 times harder” than ‘Mormon' because “we don't leave the stage once except for intermission.” Gad is aware there will be comparisons to Mormon, and that's okay. “I am forever grateful for that experience and that unbelievable roller coaster ride.” Visit Newsweek.com to learn more about the podcasts we offer and to catch up on the latest news.

Tom McVey, Senior Sales Engineer EMEA at Menlo Security, joins me in a layered discussion about the complexities and potentials of artificial intelligence (AI). Drawing on Tom's extensive background in cybersecurity and AI, this episode serves as a comprehensive guide on how to boldly embrace AI's disruptive power while being vigilant about its ethical and security implications. The episode starts with Tom addressing the increasing proliferation of AI-generated images, videos, and voices and the threats these pose regarding misinformation and false flag operations. We examine the urgent need for verification tools to discern human-created content from AI-generated material, marking this as an essential line of defense against AI-based threats. Tom discusses the delicate balancing act of implementing ethical frameworks while not stifling the innovative potential of AI technologies. They also explore the concept of AI models controlling other AI models—what Tom refers to as the 'sci-fi reality' of multi-intelligence-based systems.  We delve into Menlo Security's latest product, HEAT Shield, and its machine learning capabilities to thwart these complex cyber threats. The conversation also brushes upon how Menlo's unique architecture isolates user interaction from potentially harmful web content. Towards the end, Tom dismisses the idea of halting AI development, comparing it to the societal transformations unleashed by Johannes Gutenberg's invention of the printing press. He argues that pausing progress would be both impractical and counterproductive, giving adversaries an unfair advantage.

Physical labor was devalued in the ancient world. The exception, in classical Greece and the early days of the Roman republic, was farming, which was considered the proper pursuit of citizens. All other labor was viewed as demeaning. In the later days of the republic, as plantation agriculture replaced small farms, the work of farming was also seen as demeaning and relegated to slaves.  By the time of the Roman Empire, all physical labor was only thought proper for slaves and lower classes. Though the foundation of the empire's wealth, the upper classes believed that production was beneath them. Their attention, or so they thought, belonged in the more “refined” areas of life, such as the arts and philosophy.   Of course, the biblical view of work is completely different. Scripture frames work as a good thing, an essential part of what it means to be human. Because God created us to work, at least in part, it's inherently connected to our worship and dignity.   Put differently, work is not the result of the fall. It was, however, tainted by Adam's sin. God's created purposes for humanity, to fill and form His world through work, would now feature pain and frustration. Aspects of human work were twisted from dignity to drudgery. Human efforts to cultivate the earth, designed by God to be part of the joy of imaging Him, became sources of frustration, pain, sweat, and sorrow.  Because of the uniqueness of the biblical framework, even the early Christians approached work with a very different view than their pagan neighbors did. They thought of work as good but marred by sin. So, for example, in monastic communities, monks were expected to do physical labor, if for no other reason than to grow their food. In his Rule for Monastic Life, St. Benedict of Nursia (480-547) insisted that monks should work both to fulfill the biblical mandate that God gave Adam, and to encourage humility in a world that thought of work as demeaning.  Within a full understanding of the biblical story, from creation to new creation, Christians came to understand the Gospel as Christ redeeming us of sin as well as all its effects. In addition to forgiveness of   sin and security of eternity, salvation also included the redemption of anything infected by sin. This included work, which led Christians to attempt to restore work away from “toil” and back to the kind of meaningful labor God intended.  So, in the Middle Ages, many monasteries became centers of technological innovation, focused on making work more significant. A prime example is the waterwheel. Although the Romans knew about waterwheels, they rarely made use of them. After all, why invest in an expensive machine when you have unlimited slave labor? The monks had a different view of human value and the value of work, which inspired them to develop ways of using the waterwheel to mechanize production.  Initially, waterwheels were likely used for grinding grain. This required converting the vertical rotation of the wheel into horizontal rotation for the millstones, which the monks accomplished through a system of wooden gears and wheels. Later, the waterwheel was adapted for a wide range of other applications including powering bellows in forges, operating trip hammers in smithies, sawing lumber, and fulling cloth.    Soon, even secular communities began to invest in building mills. While some might say secular communities adopted water wheels for economic impact, the economy in Rome was very specialized. Therefore, the Romans did not deploy waterwheels. What made communities adopt these and other technologies was likely the influence of the Christian idea of work, as it moved out from the monasteries to penetrate and shape the culture.  Many more inventions were developed during the Roman and Middle Ages, stimulating economic activity and making work more efficient and meaningful. These developments were inspired by the idea that Jesus' work in redemption meant restoration was possible in all areas of life, including reversing the curse of the Garden.   Though other countries had innovative technologies, some far more advanced than the West, the West's use and employment of technology was unique. According to Indian philosopher Vishal Mangalwadi, the West used technologies to make the work of the common person easier and to aid in production, rather than to cater to the elites.  In our current cultural moment, many see work as frustrating, unrewarding, and not worth it (that is, as toil). Christians have an incredible, better vision of work to offer the larger world. We've also got a history to tell, of how a vision of human dignity and innovation became a blessing across economic and class lines. Just as in the past, the Christian view can move our imaginations about work beyond drudgery to a renewed and redeemed way of thinking and living.  This vision shaped the work of men like Johannes Gutenberg, whose motive for inventing printing with moveable metal type was to produce Bibles that were “no longer written at great expense by hands easily palsied but multiplied like the wind by an untiring machine.” The same vision can find traction today, in a culture that doesn't know what work is for and needs an example of redeemed human labor, production, and meaning.  This Breakpoint was co-authored by Dr. Glenn Sunshine. For more resources to live like a Christian in this cultural moment, go to breakpoint.org.  This Breakpoint originally aired October 27, 2021. 

"I've always wanted to take a stab at printing!" Johannes Gutenberg's invention has changed the way God's word is disseminated. Bible printing is big business, and never more so than in England 1631. Everyone wants a copy of the new King James Bible.

En este video te platicamos sobre la historia y la influencia de la imprenta, el invento que revolucionó el mundo, hablaremos sobre Johannes Gutenberg, la biblia Vulgata, las tipografías y cómo esta máquina se expandió por Europa, Rusia y las naciones árabes. El cargo La imprenta: El invento de Gutenberg que revolucionó el mundo – Bully Magnets – Historia Documental apareció primero en Bully Magnets.

In the early 1990s—a mere thirty years ago— America Online was launched into cyberspace and the Hubble Telescope was launched into outer space. These have changed our lives. And it's an odd parallel to two technological advancements from the Middle Ages—one from 1436 and another from 1608. In 1436, German goldsmith Johannes Gutenberg invented a printing press with movable type. In 1608, an unknown person invented the telescope, an idea that spread as a result of printing and was quickly picked up by Galileo who built his own, studied the heavens, and had his revolutionary findings printed by printing press. At the Wyoming School of Catholic Though this past June, adult learner listened to this introduction to Early Modern science by Dr. Paul Giesting. Readings: C.S. Lewis, The Discarded Image, Chapter 1 Johannes Trithemius, De laude scriptorum, extracts Francis Bacon, Novum organum, Aphorism 129 of Book I Galileo Galilei, Sidereus nuncius, abridged Johannes Kepler, Dioptrics extract from the preface Elizabeth Eisenstein, The Printing Revolution in Early Modern Europe, pages 206-212

In 1436, Johannes Gutenberg  invented the printing press, setting the stage for a new era in information exchange on a massive scale and kick-starting the era of scientific discovery. The Compass made it possible for sailors to move into deep sea and explore new lands, ultimately boosting international trade. Tune in to this episode to listen to other impactful inventions through history.

Pocos inventos han cambiado tanto el mundo como el de la imprenta. Gracias a ella el conocimiento pudo difundirse a una velocidad y con una efectividad como nunca lo había hecho. De todos es conocido que la imprenta tal y como la conocemos data de mediado el siglo XV cuando un orfebre de Maguncia llamado Johannes Gutenberg presentó la imprenta de tipos móviles. El invento fue revolucionario, pero Gutenberg no era el primero en crear una imprenta, tampoco la de tipos móviles. En China ya se había desarrollado siglos antes una imprenta de tipos móviles, pero no se dio valor al invento y no se expandió ya que la escritura china se adaptaba con suma dificultad a esos tipos. Los chinos, además, se valían de tipos de madera que se desgastaban con facilidad. Que escogiesen la madera tampoco era extraño. Los chinos habían desarrollado ya la xilografía, es decir, el grabado en madera. En China está documentado el uso de la xilografía mucho antes de que apareciese en Europa, una técnica que empezó a emplearse en el siglo XIII en los Países Bajos y Alemania. Los artesanos tallaban en madera imágenes religiosas, naipes y pasajes de la Biblia para luego imprimirlas. Dos siglos más tarde apareció Gutenberg, cuyo gran aporte fue crear unos tipos móviles de materiales muy resistentes como el plomo, el antimonio y el estaño que resistían los golpes de la prensa sobre el papel. Gutenberg se puso manos a la obra y compuso la Biblia con su nueva máquina, similar a la que se empleaba desde tiempos del imperio romano para prensar uvas. Pero el invento no pudo aprovecharlo en su beneficio ya que perdió el litigio con su socio, Johann Fust, que la había financiado. No muchos años después, en 1462, el arzobispo Adolfo II de Nassau tomó la ciudad provocando que los primeros impresores, discípulos todos de Gutenberg, se marchasen de Maguncia dando a conocer el invento por toda Europa. Este éxodo permitió que la imprenta se expandiese a gran velocidad por todo el continente. Para el año 1500 ya se habían impreso unos 20.000 libros en imprentas de toda Europa occidental desde Sevilla hasta Viena y desde Palermo hasta Hamburgo. A España llegó pronto. En la década de 1470 ya había impresores trabajando tanto en Castilla como en Aragón. Los primeros impresores eran alemanes que llegaron desde Italia. Esto último lo sabemos por la tipografía de tipo romano que empleaban y porque las relaciones entre Italia y la corona de Aragón eran muy fluidas. El primer libro impreso en nuestro país fue el Sinodal de Aguilafuente, un documento eclesiástico en el que se recogen las actas de un sínodo diocesano celebrado en ese pueblo segoviano en el año 1472. El sinodal fue impreso en Segovia por el maestro impresor Juan Parix de Heidelberg. En los años siguientes fueron apareciendo talleres de impresión por Valencia, Salamanca, Barcelona, Sevilla, Pamplona y Zaragoza, que eran en aquel entonces las principales ciudades de Castilla, Aragón y Navarra. En el período de casi medio siglo comprendido entre la invención de la imprenta en 1456 y el año 1500 se imprimieron los denominados incunables. El término incunable, procedente del latín y hace referencia al origen de estos documentos: la cuna de una nueva tecnología que cambiaría el mundo. Nada sería igual tras su invención. La imprenta resultó ser de vital importancia en las guerras de religión de los siglos XVI y XVII y permitió expandir la frontera del conocimiento y la alfabetización. El libro dejó de ser un artículo de lujo y se convirtió en algo corriente al alcance casi de cualquiera. Pues bien, para repasar la historia de la imprenta, de los primeros libros impresos y todo el impacto que ello tuvo sobre la civilización nos acompaña hoy en La ContraHistoria Guillermo Ortiz Ibáñez, que de libros sabe mucho porque es bibliotecario.
