The Book Your Church Doesnt Want You to Read

Soviet Union. Arabs of one religion are killing Arabs of another.
Catholics and Protestants are killing each other in Ireland and the
British Isles. There is an endless list of clashes in Africa and the
emerging nations of Southeast Asia.
Religion, more than politics and economics, kills and cripples
humankind. There has never in all known history been a genocide
of any kind which was not fueled by religion. Every religious organization
on Earth is designed to gain economic and political power
for those in the religion. Look at it closely and you will see for
yourself.
I look at my family and friends in those fundamentalist religious
organizations in central Texas. They are bound by ideas which are
not true. They believe in myths as if they were fact. They grow old
early in life. The wonderful personal resources available to them are
stifled and lost. Their lives become boring and non-productive unless
they free themselves from the concepts imposed upon them by
their religions.
In this book, you will find that the story of Jesus and the
"crucifiction" has been played out sixteen times over the last ten
thousand years. You are also going to find ideas about religion that
the Pope and other religious leaders don't want you to read or
understand. Because if you do read and understand, you will no
longer be a part of their group. What this means is that you will no
longer provide them with funds, and you will no longer be a number
which will give them political clout.
There are three major changes under way now in the affairs of all
mankind. First is politics. We have seen the demise of Communism,
and other such non-humane political concepts will fall as well. We
are beginning to see the end of a long-established economic tyranny,
which for centuries has gripped the affairs of nations, including ours.
To these we add religion, the most crippling detriment of them all
to the evolution of humankind. All of these changes are coming as
we enter the "new age", now upon us. This work addresses itself
most admirably to this vital effort.
