A game of delight NOT a purpose driven life. What is that! Very counter revolutionary!

This is clearly an injustice perptrated by algorithms for pricing second hand books. Publishers and authors should take action to make knowledge better available in these digital days.

This is an outstanding book and it is a shame that I couldn't easily purchase it. (This is when I'm grateful for libraries!)

"Where [humankind] has been accepted and loved by God 'for nothing.' [Their] works become like Adam's in the garden: 'Which were altogether free works, done for the sake of nothing but to please God only and not to attain piety'" -Moltmann (quoting Luther), *Theology of Play*, 48.

"[Humankind] shall give glory to the true God and rejoice in God's and [their] own existence, for this by itself is meaningful enough. Joy is the meaning of human life, joy in thanksgiving and thanksgiving as joy. In a way, this answer abolishes the intent of such questions as: For what purpose has [humanity] been created? For what purpose am I here? For the answer does not indicate ethical goals and ideal purposes but justifies created existence as such... the answer does not lie in demonstrable purposes establishing my usefulness but in the acceptance of my existence as such and in what Dutch biologist and philosopher Buytendijk has called the 'demonstrative value of being.' Recognizing this, we escape the dreadful questions of existence: For what purpose am I here? Am I useful? Can I make myself useful?" -Jurgen Moltmann (Theology of Play, 19)
