Excerpt from The Rediscovered Universe: Or the Power of Right Thinking and Righteous Living
My busy mind was never satisfied, and revolted against startling claims impossible of proof, and it wanted to learn the cause or why of things, or what was being's end and aim.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. In this book, the author argues that what is commonly taught as religion began as a political scheme adopted by an ancient Jewish hierarchy seeking control over the masses. They carved upon their imaginations a deity beyond the clouds, whom they called God, and claimed his wrath was as a cloud and his vengeance as a whirlwind. They attributed commandments to him, hurling them at the shrinking masses of humanity with no evidence of authority, other than their own specious declaration: God said unto Moses. The author traces the development of this system of dogma over thousands of years, showing how it has been used to subjugate, tyrrannize, and conquer nation against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. They argue that the Jewish hierarchy, more cunning and more crafty, carved their Shekinah wholly upon their own imaginations, and placed him beyond the stars in the rmament to preclude any possibility that he could be traced. They said his wrath was as a cloud and his vengeance as a whirlwind, then called him a God of love as a modifying halo. Yet the author maintains that a realm of universal plenty, a realm of law, a realm of love, a realm of divinity exists. The sun, the moon, the stars, the planets, unnumbered systems, suns, and worlds are the product of that bounteous law. This eternal, infinite, and innite realm can only be accessed through right thinking and righteous living. This book offers a bold reinterpretation of the history of religion, challenging long-held beliefs and shedding new light on the origins of faith and dogma. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of religious thought and the nature of spirituality.
