Who are we? Why are we born into this life just to die and disappear again? Where do we come from and where do we go? Every day the Earth's population is growing at an exponential rate. If we have souls and are not just pails of meat, where do all the new souls come from? All of these questions and more have been tumbling around in my head since I was young. My whole life I have been searching with an open mind for answers. The last few years I have found many that I will try to share with you. There are about seven billion of us here on Earth. Most of us believe in some kind of religion and these religions tell us, 'Do what we tell you and don't start thinking for yourself.' Even though these religions try to control us, I think there is some good and some true in them as well. It's just that they have become such man-made products. People with the need for power are attracted to religions, as well as politics, business and financial power systems. All of these things have built up a 'trust and believe' system where we are deactivated as thinkers, so we have stopped doing the necessary thinking and reflection ourselves. In this book we are going to open up our minds and start asking questions. We are going to take in a lot of obvious ideas and analyse them. Not so long ago we were thinking that the Earth was flat, the Sun circled around the Earth, and the Earth was the centre of the Universe. All this was very true at that time, but not anymore. In this book we are going to see what else we have to reconsider. The time is here.

    C. Paul Burnham / CPaul Burnham
    The Gospel of John was long assumed to be the work of an eyewitness, usually identified as John, son of Zebedee. More recently, many have judged it the unhistorical product of a ''Johannine community.'' Reconsideration by Richard Bauckham has suggested that the author was a Jerusalem disciple who housed the ''Last Supper.'' This book explores the possibility that he was present...

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
  • Tommaso Traetta and the Fusion of Italian and French Opera in Parma
    George W. Loomis
    In 1759, the court of the Italian Duchy of Parma adopted the inspiration of cultural creators who recommended a reform of Italian opera along French lines. These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...

    Robert Calder
    William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) was one of the most prominent and productive authors of the twentieth century-and his works have been among the most cinematically transformed in history. For more than five decades, adaptations of his plays, stories, and novels dominated movie theaters and, later, television screens. More than ninety individual works were filmed, and for ma...
