Book excerpt: In God's Debris, best-selling author and creator of Dilbert Scott Adams fashioned a thought-provoking exploration of life's great mysteries (everything from quantum physics and God to psychic phenomena and dating) that quickly captured the attention and imaginations of readers everywhere. The intriguing story of a deliveryman who meets the world's smartest person and learns the secret of reality is threaded with a variety of hypnosis techniques that Adams, a certified hypnotist, used to induce a feeling of euphoric enlightenment in readers to mirror the main character's feelings as he discovers the true nature of the universe.Launched to coincide with the hardcover publication of its sequel, The Religion War (see opposite page), this first paperback edition of God's Debris will soon make the leap to a broader audience. As Adams designed it, the book will "make your brain spin around inside your skull" and drive readers toward The Religion War as they seek to confirm or deny the dizzying impressions and chaotic memories of reading God's Debris.The book provides one of the most compelling visions of reality ever experienced on the printed page. Along the way, readers will enjoy the Thought Experiment: Trying to discover what's wrong with the sage's explanation of reality. This is a book, as Adams says, to be shared and savored with smart friends.

Download or read book Atheism Explained written by David Ramsay Steele and published by Open Court. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atheism Explained explores the claims made both for and against the existence of God. On the pro side: that the wonders of the world can only be explained by an intelligent creator; that the universe had to start somewhere; telepathy, out-of-body experiences, and other paranormal phenomena demonstrate the existence of a spirit world; and that those who experience God directly provide evidence as real as any physical finding. After disputing these arguments through calm, careful criticism, author David Ramsay Steele presents the reasons why God cannot exist: monstrous, appalling evils; the impossibility of omniscience; and the senseless concept that God is a thinking mind without a brain. He also explores controversial topics such as Intelligent Design, the power of prayer, religion without God, and whether a belief in God makes people happier and healthier. Steele’s rational, easy-to-understand prose helps readers form their own conclusions about this eternally thorny topic.

Download or read book The True Believers written by Robert Milton and published by Author House. This book was released on 2005-10-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this timely, but controversial book, Dr. Robert Milton offers new scientifically oriented explanations for the events of 9/11 and 7/7. The attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and London mass transit, says Dr. Milton, represents an unsavory historical summit - a kind of new age - related to genetic, neurological, and psychological motivation. The Golden Age of Terrorism is upon us! The why, he answers with compelling succinctness: is because we learn to believe before we learn to think. While he gives a realistic nod of acknowledgment to economic inequities, abject poverty and exploitation of Middle East oil as contributors to Terrorism, he pursues - to a logical scientific end - what he calls a still more basic cause: the motivations of belief. While Western Imperialism, the US support of Israel, and the war in Iraq capture the headlines as primary causes of todays Terrorism, Dr. Milton demystifies the myriad of alleged causes put forth by politicians and the media - even agreeing with those who say the emergence of Islamic extremism as a result of Quran teaching, is preposterous. True! Says Dr. Milton, it is not the words of any scripture - Christian or Muslim - that cause the problems of Terrorism. It is belief in interpretations of them. To instill a particular religious belief as the prime motivating directive is the goal of terrorist training. How such beliefs obtain and remain within our nervous systems is the subject matter of this book. The tendency to believe, this book asserts, is hardwired into the human nervous system. The content is not. Perhaps, we have no more choice about believing than we do about the color of our eyes. The cultural, psychological, and neurological basis of belief is explored and exposed, revealing one enlightening twist after another. Even the chapter on intelligent design, which Dr. Milton, as a scientist, advocates, reveals still another point of view. Terrorisms Golden Age is timely update on the sciences related to malevolent human motivation.

This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary neuro-science clearly demonstrates that 'content loading' of the human brain i.e. Learning, experience, repetitive behavior or thought, can change specific physical brain structures. (enlarge or shrink) As a shortcut Dr. Milton calls such changes 'nodules'. He goes on to ask and answer the question: Do such 'nodulized; or modified brains have the capacity to change 'thought direction' without considerable amounts of new 'content loading'. (e.g. Rehab) If peers, parents and mentors are repeating the same spiel or indoctrination, Dr Milton says, "It is unlikely that the individual would be able to entertain or even 'see' an another point of view because of physical changes in his or her brain tissue." Free will, Positive thinking, Evolution, Immigration and Addiction are just a few of the timely topics covered in Your Pollyanna Brain.

Download or read book God's Debris written by Scott Adams and published by Scott Adams, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-06-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created by provocative bestselling author Scott Adams, this book features the internationally influential God’s Debris (2001) and its sequel, The Religion War (2004), plus a short story entitled Lucky House that is set in 2120 after the AI War. Nothing about this book is normal. The author is a trained hypnotist, and the book is written to create an experience you don’t normally get from words on a page. You will feel the effect most profoundly before the end of the first novel, God’s Debris, and in the short story Lucky House. The middle piece, The Religion War, has a more traditional story structure and serves as a vehicle for Adams’ predictions. That novel is set in 2040, but you might see some of its predictions taking form already. When judging the predictions, consider that it was published in 2004. Years after writing the original novels, Adams became nationally recognized for controversial yet accurate predictions in the domains of politics and technology. If you know anyone who has read God’s Debris, they probably had a hard time describing it. Some say it is the best book they have ever read, which is a big claim. That won’t be true for everyone. But you will probably find this adventure thoroughly original; God’s Debris: The Complete Works is guaranteed to make your brain spin around in your skull. You will never forget how it made you feel.
