Download or read book Go Back to Where You Came From And Other Helpful Recommendations on How to Become American written by Wajahat Ali and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Go back to where you came from, you terrorist!” This is just one of the many warm, lovely, and helpful tips that Wajahat Ali and other children of immigrants receive on a daily basis. Go back where, exactly? Fremont, California, where he grew up, but is now an unaffordable place to live? Or Pakistan, the country his parents left behind a half-century ago? Growing up living the suburban American dream, young Wajahat devoured comic books (devoid of brown superheroes) and fielded well-intentioned advice from uncles and aunties. (“Become a doctor!”) He had turmeric stains under his fingernails, was accident-prone, suffered from OCD, and wore Husky pants, but he was as American as his neighbors, with roots all over the world. Then, while Ali was studying at University of California, Berkeley, 9/11 happened. Muslims replaced communists as America’s enemy #1, and he became an accidental spokesman and ambassador of all ordinary, unthreatening things Muslim-y. Now a middle-aged dad, Ali has become one of the foremost and funniest public intellectuals in America. In Go Back to Where You Came From, he tackles the dangers of Islamophobia, white supremacy, and chocolate hummus, peppering personal stories with astute insights into national security, immigration, and pop culture. In this refreshingly bold, hopeful, and uproarious memoir, Ali offers indispensable lessons for cultivating a more compassionate, inclusive, and delicious America.

Download or read book Back to Where We Came From written by B. Lising and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What on earth are we doing here? Why are we on this planet? We would normally try to understand things by seeing their origin. If we could know their beginning then we would know their purpose. But how about humankind, what is our starting point? The Gospel is the one and only connection we have from Eternity. This means that the only way we can know our origin and purpose is to see the whole account of the Gospel. The author believes in the perfect consistency of the Scripture—that all books of the Bible hold only a single message. He is also convinced that the last book is the summary of the whole Bible—the book of Revelation will connect all the dots and will reveal to us the big picture. This manuscript will give readers a clear understanding about the origin of mankind before the beginning of time, our foretold journey on earth, and our new beginning after the ending of time. This is the Big Picture of Our Great Restoration.

Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! "I had the choice to come back ... or not. I chose to return when I realized that 'heaven' is a state, not a place" In this truly inspirational memoir, Anita Moorjani relates how, after fighting cancer for almost four years, her body began shutting down—overwhelmed by the malignant cells spreading throughout her system. As her organs failed, she entered into an extraordinary near-death experience where she realized her inherent worth . . . and the actual cause of her disease. Upon regaining consciousness, Anita found that her condition had improved so rapidly that she was released from the hospital within weeks—without a trace of cancer in her body! Within this enhanced e-book, Anita recounts—in words and on video—stories of her childhood in Hong Kong, her challenge to establish her career and find true love, as well as how she eventually ended up in that hospital bed where she defied all medical knowledge. In "Dying to Be Me," Anita Freely shares all she has learned about illness, healing, fear, "being love," and the true magnificence of each and every human being!
Download or read book One Came Back written by Joe Smiga and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third book from Behind the Lies is somewhat different from the first two books in the series. In the first two books, there is constant motion heading toward terrible destruction. In the third, there is a shift to introduce human feelings along with events to show how the characters, who are dealing with their pasts, achieve their next destructive goals, while still dealing with being human. In this book, I introduce two main characters; one had been in all three books of the series. His companion is new to the book. They are full of passion and emotions that we tend to experience in our everyday lives. It is an experience of rebuilding lives after tragedies, deep loss, revenge, and manipulation by governments, thrilling action, and human beings overcoming diversity, each trying their best to survive. It is my final book in this series. I hope that you enjoy it as it has some reality based on my own life.

Download or read book 2012 the Year Jesus Yeshua Finally Came Back to Earth written by Dante P. Chelossi Jr and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This controversial subject matter about the return of Jesus (Yeshua) to earth in modern times to come face-to-face with humanity once again after almost twenty centuries has been something thought about and anticipated by millions of people since the time of his physical departure. There is also the human curiosity about what would happen if and when he did actually return to earth. There have been many times when this event was predicted over the centuries, about when he would arrive, and every time, it did not happen. Patience and faith still continued afterwards, after much disappointment of the believers. This hope of his return is embedded within the souls of millions of people on our planet. Even though this story in this book is fiction, it will still make the reader wonder about how he or she would react if someone were to show up one day in the near future, on a world stage, and declare that he is indeed the very same man that modern-day people call Jesus (Yeshua), who was crucified on a wooden cross almost two thousand years ago by the Romans. Certainly, unarguable proof from this man claiming to be Jesus (Yeshua) would need to be so utterly convincing that even nonbelievers who are not necessarily religious would be convinced without argument. The author will be able to show an event that he has created in this book and prove to anyone that if this event were to actually happen before their eyes, it would be hard for them to deny that this person is, in fact, who he claims to be. This event is so extraordinary and unbelievable that denial that this person is Jesus (Yeshua) would be impossible!

Amazing scientific evidence that our biggest mountain ranges are barely 4,000+ years old. Was the Ice Age triggered by HEAT???
