Are religion and science really at war with one another? Not according to David F. Noble, who argues that the flourishing of both religion and technology today is nothing new but rather the continuation of a 1,000-year-old Western tradition.

The Religion of Technology demonstrates that modern man's enchantment with things technological was inspired by and grounded in religious expectations and the quest for transcendence and salvation. The two early impulses behind the urge to advance in science, he claims, are the conviction that apocalypse is imminent, and the belief that increasing human knowledge helps recover what was lost in Eden. Noble traces the history of these ideas by examining the imaginings of monks, explorers, magi, scientists, Freemasons, and engineers, from Sir Isaac Newton to Joseph Priestley to Wernher von Braun.

Noble suggests that the relationship between religion and technology has perhaps outlived its usefulness. Whereas it once aimed to promote human well-being, it has ultimately become a threat to our survival. Thus, with The Religion of Technology, Noble aims to redirect our efforts toward more worldly and humane ends.

Name holds true.
Size: Large Triple
Just bought my second set of these.. first set lasted my healer almost 4 years and are still together but starting to split at the smaller seams so you can’t play as aggressive as my dog would like. We bought the second set and now she has her second wind! She loves tugging and I love knowing this toy will last a good while especially with an active dog!

Not long lasting, but preferred by my dogs and not smelly
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have two pretty serious chewers. They prefer these bones over all of their longer-lasting dog bones, and these don't stink (which is more than I can say for most dog bones they like). I'm also less worried about digestion and choking hazards since these are rawhide-free. I buy these bones regularly and will continue to do so - just don't expect them to last more than a few minutes for big chewers.

My lab loves them!!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am not a fan of the price and I don't know why they are so pricy, but my lab lives them so I will treat him every once in awhile. I love that these take awhile for him to eat giving him more time to enjoy them.

Dog approved!
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: 12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My dog, a half pit bull and half chocolate lab, has a very sensitive stomach. With that in mind I have to always be wary of the things I buy her. With that in mind these seemed to work great! They don’t last as long as normal raw hide, so there is less “chew time” but she was excited when she received them! If your looking for a quick treat or reward for your dog these are great! If your looking for a bone/chewing alternative then these don’t quite meet that requirement.
