Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For fans of The Drowned World and World War Z, this “sobering and scary (and fascinating) novel—a look at where we’re going if we don’t quickly get our act together” (Bill McKibben, New York Times bestselling author) regarding climate change—unveils our potential terrifying future. 2084: Global warming has proven worse than even the most dire predictions scientists had made at the turn of the century. No country—and no one—has remained unscathed. Through interviews with scientists, political leaders, and citizens around the globe, this riveting fictional oral history describes in graphic detail the irreversible effects the Great Warming has had on humankind and the planet. In short chapters about topics like sea level rise, drought, migration, war, and more, The 2084 Report brings global warming to life, revealing a new reality in which Rotterdam doesn’t exist, Phoenix has no electricity, and Canada is part of the United States. From wars over limited resources to the en masse migrations of entire countries and the rising suicide rate, the characters describe other issues they are confronting in the world they share with the next two generations. “If the existential threat of climate change keeps you up at night, James Lawrence Powell’s The 2084 Report will make you want to do everything in your power to elect leaders who will combat global warming and save our planet” (Marie Claire).
Download or read book Getting Ready for Secession written by Carl Wells and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end is near . . . or the beginning The United States is falling-down-drunk broke. We are bankrupt. We were, of course, morally bankrupt first. Our moral bankruptcy led to our financial bankruptcy. What happens if/when the financial system implodes? This huge and out-of-control baby-killing, wedding-bombing Leviathan may implode as well. That sounds like it might be dangerous, because it is. But reality exists. (Thats my theory, anyway, and Im sticking to it.) No evil empire goes on forever. Ask Assyria, Nazi Germany, and the Soviet Union. God is sovereign. And He will strongly support those whose heart is completely His (2 Chronicles 16:9). Maybe the end of the United States can be a turning point for enormous good in world history. But we all, Christians and non-Christians, need to think about this a lot more . . . Hence, Getting Ready for Secession by Carl Wells.
Download or read book One Word of Truth Outweighs the Whole World written by Carl Wells and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-01-22 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn told us, decades ago, that one word of truth outweighs the whole world, he was quoting from a Russian proverb. According to the proverb (and to Solzhenitsyn), that would mean that truth is extremely weighty and important. The Bible seems to agree, because the Bible stresses over and over the loveliness of truth—and the ugliness of falsehood. One Word of Truth Outweighs the Whole World, by Carl Wells, examines what it will mean for us, in practical terms, if we begin to have a high respect for truth. Caring about the truth may be easier said than done!

Book excerpt: Does God Have Goals? We human beings tend to be pretty self-absorbed. We have goals, and we hope to meet those goals--whether they are wise or unwise. We seldom stop to consider that perhaps God also has goals. If He does, they are certain to be wise, and He has the power to reach those goals. But what are they? Does God intend that mankind help Him reach His goals? Does our current model of Christianity truly reflect what the Bible teaches? Is the model flawed or broken? What would a biblical model of Christianity look like? Does God torture most people in Hell for eternity? Or have we misread Scripture on that topic? These are some of the questions wrestled with in What Are Gods Goals?

Book excerpt: Do we hear biblical Christianity in our churches? What if our brand of Christianity is only partly true to what the Bible teaches? What if our understanding of eternal life/eternal death is flawed so dramatically as to harm both Christians and non-Christians? Our Christian civilization currently seems to be at risk. What if that’s our fault because we have ignored vital Bible teachings? If: God’s Covenant of Grace traces the Bible’s use of the powerful little word “if” to discuss crucial life and death issues.

Download or read book Will the United States Survive Until 2084 written by Dale T. La Belle and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study treats the practices of Western banking and contrasts them broadly with Islamic banking. It illumines the "invisible treads" uniting war and capitalism, following the lead of Werner Sombart. An example of money inflation is adduced from the sixteenth century precedent of bullion inflation and its economic consequences. For long-term analysis as well as predictive value the author adopts the "long cycle" hypothesis of the Russian economist K.D. Dmitriev and as expounded by contemporary Russian economists. The author concludes that the operation of the sixth "long wave" of economic acceleration may well necessitate the collapse and transformation of the current American political regime during the third quarter of the twenty-first century. Subsequent chapters in the Afterward trace the path of revolutionary Puritan colonists into the Pioneer Valley in central Massachusetts, before entering and forming a significant ethnic portion of the banking industry. Later chapters illumine the aspirations of a later Puritsn descendent to establish a military dictatorship in America, after a second invasion of Mexico, thus illustrating the contnuity of Puritan military aspirations from Philip Dru: Administrator to the border vigilantes of the present day.
Download or read book Does Democracy Matter written by Adrian Basora and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confidence in the future of democracy has been shaken by the authoritarian resurgence of the past decade, and some now argue that it is not realistic for the US to continue to champion democracy abroad. Does Democracy Matter? provides the conclusions of eleven scholars from widely different backgrounds who ask whether and, if so, how the US should support democracy beyond its own borders. The authors agree that American strategic interests are served in the long run by the spread of democracy abroad, but they differ as to how this support meshes with other national security goals. The concluding chapter outlines a system of triage for realistically assessing where and how such assistance can be effective in promoting US security interests. Contributions by Adrian A. Basora, Sarah Bush, Larry Diamond, Carl Gershman, Nikolas K. Gvosdev, Melinda Haring, Michal Kořan, Richard Kraemer, Agnieszka Marczyk, Tsveta Petrova, and Kenneth Yalowitz.
