Every culture has its gods. According to Ingersoll, every culture has failed to develop properly in moral and spiritual ways, mainly because the gods of man were made by man. They originally appeared within our flawed minds, and therefore resemble their flawed creators. The Gods cannot "rescue" us when they, like us, are in a constant battle for recognition and supremacy, either among themselves or with the gods of other religions. This book will make you think about the nature of deity and will challenge your critical thinking skills. The author continually brings to our attention the nagging feeling that something is not right, especially as it relates to what we have been traditionally taught. Many of his arguments are strong and compelling, while others may be challenged and debated through deeper examination. Whatever the case, this is an insightful book that is well worth exploring.

DID YOU KNOW THAT OUR GOVERNMENT ACTIVITIES ARE PERFECTLY IN LINE WITH THE EVENTS DESCRIBED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION THAT USHER IN THE ANTICHRIST?
All of bible prophecy has been fulfilled for the antichrist to come to power.
However, there are 3 world events that need to be implemented in order for the antichrist to come to power and become the world leader.
1.) The nations of the world need to be ready to accept and implement a One-World Order and Government, allowing for a single world ruler.
2.) The world needs to be ready and willing to be on a One-World Currency and Banking System, which will allow the antichrist to control what the citizens of the entire world can buy and sell.
3.) Once the Holy Spirit has been removed by way of the Raptured Christians, The New One-World Government will gather the leaders of the top religions together and unite them under a One-World Religion already in existence today and growing rapidly.
These three biblical and historical events are already taking place today in our own government. You can see this for yourself at www.thewitnessalliance.com Video News Page. The Rapture can happen at any moment. In this book you will learn who is responsible, what organizations to watch, and just how close we are to these events being implemented. As you walk with the author verse by verse through the pages of Revelation. You will experience the tribulation first hand, as though you have missed the rapture and were left behind. You will deal with every catastrophic event as it happens from day to day and month to month, surviving each event only to take on another of even greater challenge. As you walk with the author through the tribulation, you will experience the joys of victory, the challenges of surviving and the destructive and evil treatment of the tribulation saints; all of this at the hands of the antichrist. Up to this point, everything has been prophecy of future events, but that future is NOW
I am delighted to recommend this book written by my friend of over 20 years and brother in the ministry of our Lord to any student of the Bible. Never have I seen a book explain Revelation as though you are actually living through the Tribulation. This book get's you to thinking in ways you never thought of before. After reading this book, I fell down on my knees and prayed that God would use this scholarly work to help thousands of souls prepare for the soon coming Lord Jesus."
-Pastor Glen Aycock, Southern Baptist Minister

Put two contrarians together and shake well. -Christianity Today The gloves come off in this electric exchange, originally hosted by Christianity Today, as leading atheist Christopher Hitchens (author of God Is Not Great) and Christian apologist Douglas Wilson (author of Letter from a Christian Citizen) go head-to-head on this divisive question. The result is entertaining and provocative-a glimpse into the ongoing debate.

From the Author of the "Power of Light Vibrations" and "Empirical Truth, Pantheistic-Atheism" comes "Bible Propaganda: The War in Heaven from Satan's Eyes." You will learn how the Bible is a book of misinformation, and that God is a rapacious and avarice slave master, the "Bully of the Bible." This book was compiled from Bible Scripture, and the philosophy of "Empirical Truth" including an intriguing original, abstract fictional scenerio of the "War in Heaven" as told in part from Lucifer's point of view with a twist on how it was Satan, and not God who gave humankind freewill. And so God became enraged with insane jealousy punishing all who did not bow down to Him. This is what begot the "War in Heaven," with Satan and His Angels fighting a losing battle in defending our right to have freedom. I do not believe in Devils or Angels, this is another account of what I have coined "Bible-Babble-Bull."

This rare, soul-searching book, reveals the spiritual power of the famous Rosicrucian, Robert Boyle. He takes you by his gentle hand and guides you to the love of God. This may be the first time it has ever been offered to the spiritually hungry world since 1708.

This is an introduction to the new innovation of secular religion called "Pantheistic-Atheism." It is a way for us to live moral and ethical lives without a biblical God. A philosophy that all people can use to live together to make an ameliorated new world. We should not be trying to destroy ourselves in fulfilling some old superstitious biblical prophecy full of hatred and wars. Although this book includes a chapter on "Bible Propaganda," and additional information on why religion is fraudulent portraying God as the "Bully of the Bible." It is mainly about living successful positive lives. Therefore, it does not include sections on the superstitious immoral atrocities of the Bible, nor its true origin, the fact of Evolution versus Intelligent Design Enforcers, and many other subjects of "Bible-Babble-Bull" that are included in his anti-religious book called "Empirical Truth."

"Sometimes I have a difficult time accepting my good fortune to be living at this particular time -- nothing has made me feel more that way than reading Dr. Jerome's fascinating, realistic, and informative book. It is a "treasure house" of wonderful information, useful knowledge, and excellent writing.
This book essentially takes the basic religious truths that have been handed down to us over hundreds of years from our major world religions and shows how current findings in subatomic particle physics, quantum theory, and laser technology gives us a way of seeing how they may well be agreeing on the same basic truths that construct and maintain our matter and spiritual existence.
Larry Dossey, M.D., President of Isthmus Institute and author of "Space, Time, and Medicine" and "Beyond Illness," has written an excellent introduction and endorses Dr. Jerome's work. I believe that any creditable scientist would do the same and certainly every New Thought student should be enthusiastic about the work. This book is not 'another scientific text.' It is that, of course, but is so much more and such 'fun' reading. Take a look at this book which is entertaining, informative, and above all else, a book which has great application to daily living." -- Jack H. Holland, PhD., D.D. -- Theologian, Reviewer of scientific and theological literature for "The New Thought Quarterly," and Director of The Institute for Human Growth and Awareness.
"Dr. Jerome's book just might be one of the most important books of this era. It explains the holographic nature of God's consciousness in terms that are understandable." -- Tommy Sellers, communications expert in computer science and laser research.
"Dr. Jerome personifies a new breed of human now emerging. He is a scientist who realizes that his science represents only part of the path to understand his existence and his reality. It is an essential part, but incomplete in itself. To be whole, to be balanced in life, he knows it is necessary to discover the path's other essential part.
As the parts of the path become visible before him, Dr. Jerome integrates them for us. As he says in his preface:
If science is right, and if religion is also
right, then they must allude to the same
basic truths. The quest to uncover this
'sameness' is the goal of this book
This is a sensitive and beautiful book written by an admirable man. It deserves to be read, then pondered, then reread, and finally, referred to often." -- John C. Carls, PhD. in particle physics and author of "What It Means To Be Human."

LCCN: 2009936698 The author asserts that if there is no God, then fifty-five absurdities follow such as: humans possess no unique value, there is no objective morality, the existence of humanity has no meaning or purpose. Without a transcendent standard or source, pursuits and values are delusions of the human species. The information required for the intricate complexity of the universe, from nothing or chaos to life on earth and the structure of the cosmos, has no contributor in the absence of a transcendent intelligence. In the year of his death in 1955, the revered scientist Albert Einstein clarified his formerly ambiguous views: "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble minds. That deeply emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God" (Calaprice, ed., The Ultimate Quotable Einstein, Princeton, 2010, p.325).

In Living in the Now, the author distills her experience in Eastern and Western philosophy, as well as the works of contemporary thinkers and teachers, into practical and manageable ways of becoming mindful of the present to reduce stress and improve one's quality of life. She presents the obstacles to mindfulness encountered by people with different personality traits, and gently and sensibly negotiates their identification with the ego. Her clear style helps the reader to navigate complex topics such as the delusion of time, and her practical exercises at the end of each chapter consolidate her wisdom, allowing readers to internalise it. Among many others, the perfectionist, the procrastinator and the controller will learn the elegance of living in the present, and realise, with relief, that they can stop resisting their lives and become more fulfilled.

Ronald Aronson has a mission: to demonstrate that a life without religion can be coherent, moral, and committed. In the last few years the "New Atheists"--Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, Richard Dawkins, and Christopher Hitchens--have created a stir by criticizing religion and the belief in God. Aronson moves beyond the discussion of what we should not believe, proposing contemporary answers to Immanuel Kant's three great questions: What can I know? What ought I to do? What can I hope? Grounded in the sense that we are deeply dependent and interconnected beings who are rooted in the universe, nature, history, society, and the global economy, Living Without God explores the experience and issues of 21st-century secularists, especially in America. Reflecting on such perplexing questions as why we are grateful for life's gifts, who or what is responsible for inequalities, and how to live in the face of aging and dying, Living Without God is also refreshingly topical, touching on such subjects as contemporary terrorism, the war in Iraq, affirmative action, and the remarkable rise of Barack Obama. Optimistic and stirring, Living Without God is less interested in attacking religion than in developing a positive philosophy for atheists, agnostics, secular humanists, skeptics, and freethinkers--as well as for all those of us who, whatever we call ourselves, manage to live fundamentally secular lives and are searching for bearings today.

"Empirical Truth," "Pantheistic-Atheism." This book will show that the Bible is an immoral old book that we should not be brainwashing our children into believing, especially by blind-faith. That more evil has come about from the Bible than good. That humanity chose to live with ethics and morals long before we had religious rulings. That evolution is correct, and you will not be fooled by Intelligent Design Enforcers. You will expand your mind using science, philosophy, history, and abstract thinking in a journey from caveman to our modern society to free our minds from Bible-Babble-Bull. Then you will be introduced to the positive philosophy of "Empirical Truth." Including the healing "Powers of Light Vibrations," which can fill the void left inside of you, as you toss away all the fears that you lived with for so long from the emotional and disturbing propaganda of religion.

This is a personal account of a year's visits to sites that lie on various ley lines across Britain, ending in southern Ireland. While being of a personal nature it goes far beyond that as the author Jackie Queally works closely with a universal metaphysical system called the Reshel, whose purpose is to co-create the new spiritual paradigm. The Reshel is an ancient spiritual body of knowledge still valid today. Lying at the core of esoteric Christianity it is highly pertinent to the great shift taking place today on Earth, and this book is a rare gem for it explains in accessible language how the earth as a sentient being responds to human consciousness and evolves. The Reshel expresses states of being of very high frequencies that can be applied to etheric patterns in the land over vast distances involving key sites such as Rosslyn Chapel and Glastonbury. Jackie is the longest standing guide to that chapel and is steeped in esoteric knowledge of its purpose and function. 'This new book by Jackie Queally, pre-eminent authority on the Reshel systems of Europe, Sotland and Ireland in particular, is hands down the best and most readable material on the arcane Reshel matrix yet to be published. It gives the reader clearly explained technical information on the complex European earth grids balanced with her highly entertaining and fascinating personal experiences. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about the Reshel Grid - the gateway to the future' - Peter Allen. Formerly only understood and used by inner-core Templar and Masonic groups, Jackie has organized the once secret information and systems into an excellent understandable summary. The 'Living, Chief Head Stone that becomes the Corner'...defining the Messiah in 1 Peter 2:4-9, also defines every human in his/her Ascension movement. As this Universe is rapidly moving into a new Continuum reality, so also the spiritual science evolves to remain ahead of the evolutionary surge. The New-Ark, organized by Metatronic Reshel systems, is the core of that science. The Templars updated temples and earth-grids 700 years ago (and earlier) designed for this present phase of the great Transition. Jackies brilliant insight into this little understood science, continuing their work and conveyed through the book is a valuable aid for any grid-worker. These systems can be directly applied by Light Groups to increase their efficiency and resonance with Metatronic systems used in the Transition.

An Atheist's Handbook describes the "Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How" of the author's transition from religious believer to religious nonbeliever in a logical, philosophical, and easy-to-read fashion. It should be required reading for everyone who does or does not believe in God.

Author Floyd C. McElveen heard men crying out for God when a Kamikaze suicide plane hit his ship in WWII. Several different "Religions" tried to convince him that they had the answers. Vocal Atheists claimed Evolution was a "fact" and that God did not exist at all. This created an intense desire in McElveen to find out the truth. With his brilliant mind and deductive reasoning, McElveen began a sincere journey to discover who was right. Faith of an Atheist is a powerhouse book with scientific and logical explanations providing a sound foundation for its conclusions. McElveens skill at communicating resonates with truth that is revealing and soul-searching. With over 1 million books in print, he is clearly a diligent researcher and well-respected author.

Jesus Christ: A Pagan Myth, is a detailed comparison of the religious and ethical beliefs held by the Greco-Roman world and the views held by Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles, and the Gospel of Mark, the earliest written gospel in the New Testament. Why do Mark and the gospels that followed him, as well as Paul's letters, reflect not Jewish ethics but rather the Stoic ethics of the Greco-Roman pagan world? Why the striking similarity between the religion of Paul and the mystery religions of the pagan world which surrounded him? Why are Mark and Paul so anti-Jewish? Why are Jesus' last words "Why have you (God) abandoned me?" Why does Jesus feel he is dying on the cross, a failure, that he is deserted by God? Jesus Christ: A Pagan Myth presents evidence that Jesus is a literary fiction, one derived from a Greco-Roman pagan environment. This evidence is taken from the New Testament, particularly from Mark and the letters of Paul, and from modern Christian scholars. NEWS: A new version of this book has now been published. It is the first in a series to be published in the next few months - "Jesus Never Lived Vol I Jesus Christ: A Pagan Myth." This is the third edition and has been revised and expanded. Over 150 pages of new material has been added. So be sure to check out "Jesus Never Lived Vol 1 Jesus Christ: A Pagan Myth."

Deism is a natural and rational bridge that unites our reason to our belief in God. It propels us from the false and destructive ancient myths to a space-age belief system that is in line with our innate God-given reason. This book, written in a concise and cogent style, introduces the reader to Deism, a way of life that is free of the old conflicts between reason and religion. The removal of these conflicts allows us to enjoy and appreciate a much more profound and satisfying belief in Nature's God while helping us to live a more productive and meaningful life.
