For many centuries, science and religion have remained staunchly independent. Whenever issues have developed that simultaneously touched on both areas, debate often ensued-for example, when scientists first proposed that the earth revolved around the sun, or when the theory of evolution was proposed. There has always been a cultural disconnect between science and religion that has caused dissention and distrust. Research conducted by author Fred R. David, however, reveals that the missing link between science and religion may be UFOs or, more specifically, the beings inside those crafts. "The UFO-Christianity Connection: Fact or Fiction" reveals that UFOs played a significant role in how ancient civilizations built megalithic structures and predicted celestial events perfectly; brings to life the close association that ancient civilizations had with ancient astronauts-whom they called gods or sky people; reveals that many events described in ancient writings, including the Bible, involved UFO encounters; gives readers a unique perspective to engage others in discussing angels, God, UFOs, Bigfoot, Satan, giants, the underworld, the flood, Atlantis, and Jesus. The scientific information presented here is vital for people of all faiths on all continents. Explore the missing link that bridges the gap between science and religion.

Many people believe they have seen ghosts, many others are doubtful, but despite the rationalism of the present day, there has been no decrease in the number of sightings: old ghosts have survived for centuries and have been joined by modern ones, haunted houses retain their eerie reputations, apparitions are studied by parapsychologists, poltergeists still wreak havoc in homes. Ghost Sightings is a wide-ranging guide to ghostly phenomena from all parts of the globe up to 2015. It covers cases throughout history: many of them famous, others less well known. It examines malign spirits and gentle ghosts, apparitions, wraiths, haunted houses and spooky urban myths. Each entry gives details of the date, location and course of events, as well as providing a historical context and analytical assessment of the phenomenon. The book's extensive appendices provide fascinating additional information, including the differing roles of ghosts in the world's religions, an exploration of out-of-body and near-death experiences, and modern theories offered to explain ghosts by figures such as Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung. Ghost Sightings is a thorough study of a subject that has intrigued, amazed and terrified mankind throughout history.

Nothing like some good ghost stories on a cool Florida evening around a campfire (or at home in your favorite reading chair). And nothing like a swamp as a good, scary setting, especially Florida's famous ones--from the Everglades to Mosquito Lagoon. Mysterious things just happen in swamps. Maybe it's because they are often wet, shadowy places of wild beauty where few people go. Where else but a swamp can you find a ghost who is obsessed with the ghost orchid? Throw in a skunk ape or two and you've got the ingredients for many entertaining hours. In writing tales for this book, Doug Alderson drew upon many years of entertaining young people as a summer camp counselor and storyteller, and also from decades as a swamp explorer. He is a former associate editor of Florida Wildlife magazine. To learn more about his writing and photography, log onto his website at www.dougalderson.net.
My book is a culmination of fifteen years of research and field study in an area that not many people are aware of, that being the subconscious mind. Instead of writing another non-fiction, how-to-book, I decided to convey all the experiences I had attained and all the knowledge I had acquired by incorporating them into an autobiographical novel. The information that is offered in my book is done in such a manner that the reader is not only entertained, but more importantly, enlightened toward understanding how to make life a little much easier and satisfying by utilizing a method I have coined "The Technique." Through the use of flash-backs and descriptive narrative, the storyline follows best-selling novelist John Templeton as he embarks upon an adventurous 10-day writing odyssey by delving into the inner world of subconscious awareness and creative intelligence, searching for the elusive fulfillment toward achieving true mental, physical and emotional well-being, harmony and balance. What he discovers along this rare and unusual journey is the very heart of the novel which is divided into 3 parts: Books 1,2 and 3, Book 1 focuses on terminology, book 2 in character development, while book 3 encompasses methodology, all woven into one neat package.
Roger and Carolyn Perron purchased the home of their dreams and eventual nightmares in December of 1970. The Arnold Estate, located just beyond the village of Harrisville, Rhode Island seemed the idyllic setting in which to raise a family. The couple unwittingly moved their five young daughters into the ancient and mysterious farmhouse. Secrets were kept and then revealed within a space shared by mortal and immortal alike. Time suddenly became irrelevant; fractured by spirits making their presence known then dispersing into the ether. The house is a portal to the past and a passage to the future. This is a sacred story of spiritual enlightenment, told some thirty years hence. The family is now somewhat less reticent to divulge a closely-guarded experience. Their odyssey is chronicled by the eldest sibling and is an unabridged account of a supernatural excursion. Ed and Lorraine Warren investigated this haunting in a futile attempt to intervene on their behalf. They consider the Perron family saga to be one of the most compelling and significant of a famously ghost-storied career as paranormal researchers. During a seance gone horribly wrong, they unleashed an unholy hostess; the spirit called Bathsheba...a God-forsaken soul. Perceiving herself to be mistress of the house, she did not appreciate the competition. Carolyn had long been under siege; overt threats issued in the form of fire...a mother's greatest fear. It transformed the woman in unimaginable ways. After nearly a decade the family left a once beloved home behind though it will never leave them, as each remains haunted by a memory. This tale is an inspiring testament to the resilience of the human spirit on a pathway of discovery: an eternal journey for the living and the dead.
