This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reflections on the Journey to the Omega Point" is a collection of random thoughts (in no particular order) that I have been amassing and collecting over the past 70 years on a variety of subjects. It is a representation of my philosophy of life -- that we are on a journey, or a pilgrimage if you will, through a hostile, insecure, and uncertain world on the way to the Omega Point -- death, the portal to Heaven, our eternal home where there will be eternal happiness, security, and certainty in an infinitely loving environment presided over by an infinitely loving God. Whatever happens to us here is important only insofar as it contributes to our place in that world beyond the Omega Point. Only one thing is important: Eternal Salvation in an eternal Paradise with an eternal God. Some of the concepts will be repeated throughout the book but they are important enough to bear repetition as they fall into the context of various different essays. I admit that I have grown more cynical as I have grown older but the world we live in is becoming increasingly conducive to cynicism. I'll warn the reader now that this is a very dark book in many ways but it is a realistic book written from a Roman Catholic perspective and viewpoint. All Scriptural quotes are taken from the on-line version of the Douay-Rheims Bible.

Download or read book The Omega Point written by Mike Hockney and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 953 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History's biggest lie is that there's one "God" and he created the universe out of nothing. Nothing has done more damage to the human psyche than monotheism - the doctrine of an all-powerful "Spy God", the divine peeping Tom, who sentences to hell anyone who doesn't slavishly obey him. In fact, the universe is a mathematical "God factory" and creates infinite Gods over eons of time. The universe, via dialectical ontological mathematics, is converging on the perfect answer to everything: the condition known as the Absolute or the Omega Point. The universe travels, mathematically, from Alpha to Omega, from perfect potential to perfect actualization. The ancient secret society of the Illuminati has waged a war against Abrahamic monotheism and promoted the doctrine of "becoming God". Mathematics is the Philosopher's Stone that can transmute base metal (ordinary humans) into gold (Gods). You too can complete your cosmic journey, across countless reincarnations. Are you ready to become an Omega Human?

This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is set in a near future where reality and fantasy coexist.

It follows the journey of a hero, a warrior, as they navigate the battle between Light and Darkness across di erent alternate worlds stacked on top of each other.

It follows the journey of a hero, a warrior, as they navigate the battle between Light and Darkness across di erent alternate worlds stacked on top of each other. Decisions hold the key to freedom. The text aims to question political and religious discourses and encourage re ection through everyday phrases and elements. In the year 2077, Mexico City is in ruins and globalized popular culture is intertwined with characters from other worlds and dimensions. Gargoyles and angels, demons and shaman-nahuales ght to the death. In the Plaza de Toros Mexico, Mexican prison inmates engage in ghts reminiscent of the Roman coliseum. The ghts involve chases, shootouts, and explosions between rusty Ford Raptors and rebuilt Harley Davidsons in the middle of Insurgentes and Reforma avenues, which have been devastated by social movements, earthquakes, and pandemics. A war helicopter destroys the Angel de la Independencia with a missile. The scene is full of action, blows, and explosions. Our characters listen to Enrique Bunbury and Leonard Cohen through a holographic player while getting drunk. They also enjoy the music of Mick Jagger, Axl Rose, Steven Tyler, and Vince Neil, as well as the chords of Keith Richards, Slash, Joe Perry, and Mick Mars. These elements re ect various forms of human behavior. This gives us a clear picture: Politically speaking, the world is fading away. Mexico has been devastated by social movements and health crises. The population has been reduced by half. Mexico City is in ruins, and there is no law. It is a no man's land. Ollin, our main character, leads a monotonous life playing guitar in a local bar called 'El Mezcalero' with his three friends: Hamp, the British bass player, Denis, the French drummer, and Aragón, the Spanish vocalist. Their band, 'Calmecac,' is visited one day by a character who will change Ollin's perspective on things. Juan Huitze, a shaman, will serve as the protagonist's mentor, introducing him to a mystical and spiritual world. The story will feature physical and spiritual confrontations between gargoyles, angels, and other mythological beings in our reality. Ollín will search for the tomb of Fray Juan de Zumárraga. He will meet Tezcatlipoca in the ruins of the Templo Mayor under the Cathedral of Mexico City, as well as Quetzalcóatl in Teotihuacán. Then, he will visit the tomb of Pacal in Palenque and nally arrive at Chichen Itzá. There, he will descend to the Underworld or Xibalbá with the twins Junajpú and Xbalanqué. The court of Baoth and his cursed angels are preparing for the arrival of a hybrid being, half angel and half human. This being aims to take over the energy and consciousness of humanity, submerging them in darkness for all eternity. Ollin's task is to help humanity transcend to a multidimensional level, where the Mayan phrase 'In Lak'Ech Hala Ken' takes on its full meaning: 'I am you, you are me.' During a galactic alignment, it is the appropriate time for the sacri ce to take place. The cycle must come to a close as time is ending. This cycle represents The Path to the Omega Point, where everything and everyone will become one with the universal consciousness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The history of Christian theology can be a daunting, even forbidding field for the novice, who sees neither the need for nor pertinence of rummaging around dusty old texts. This people-friendly volume, a full-scale reader in the history of Christian theology, offers an easy, non-threatening, occasionally humorous yet quite thorough entry into Christianity's central texts from the Apostolic Fathers to Mary Daly. It is also enlivened by dozens of cartoons by Rich Diesslin. Highly accessible introductions to five periods precede brief introductions to and texts from more than fifty key thinkers. The texts highlight perennial themes and questions in Christian tradition, especially the meaning and importance of Jesus, challenges to the institutional church, tensions of faith and reason, spirituality, and the Christian quest for social justice. The new edition, half again as large as the original, adds significant work from the Cappadocian Fathers and the Christological controversialists, the Franciscan tradition, the Radical and English reforms, and deeper coverage of twentieth-century theologians. With learning aids, research-paper suggestions and guide, and glossary" -- Publisher description.

Some of the personal experiences include overcoming eating disorders, molestation, abortion, abuse, infidelity, degenerative disease, anxiety.

We hope to offer others a safe place to bare their souls and in turn, help contribute to a more loving, accepting, and tolerant world.
Download or read book My Sister My Brother written by Karen Baker-Fletcher and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2002-06-19 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fresh new approach to African-American theology brings two creative theologians into a lively dialogue between womanist and Xodus" thought. Karen Baker-Fletcher writes from the perspective of womanism, reflecting the interlocking issues of sex, class, and race, that characterize the experience of African-American women. Garth KASIMU Baker-Fletcher writes from the perspective of what he has termed Xodus theology. With a name that resonates with reference both to the Exodus story, the Cross, and the self-naming identity of Malcolm X, Xodus reflects the perspective of a new generation of Black theology by males who have responded, among other things, to the challenges of womanist theology. In successive chapters based on core themes of theology, each author lays out his or her position. They then engage in mutual critique and dialogue. Both authors draw widely on the Bible and traditional theology, as well as incorporating elements from both African and African-American religious and cultural expression - from the novels of Toni Morrison and Alice Walker to rap and hip-hop. 'My Sister, My Brother' weaves a bright theological tapestry that integrates female and male experience, traditional and contemporary perspectives, in an African-American theology that promotes survival, resistance, healing, liberation, and transcendence. CONTENTS: Part I God: God as Spirit and Strength of Life; Xodus Intuitions of the Divine. Part II Christ: Immanuel, Jesus as Dust and Spirit; Jesus, the Scandal of a God with a Body. Part III Humanity: Xodus Anthropology; Womanhood, A Way of Being Human. Part IV Generations: Unto All Generations; Unto the Fathers' Fathers. Part V Church: Spirit-Church; Having Church." Part VI: Last Things: Future Now! Xodus Eschatology; Dust to Dust, Spirit to Spirit. A Womanist Eschatology.

Download or read book Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Carl Gustav Jung Side by Side written by Fred Gustafson and published by Fisher King Press. This book was released on 2015-03-21 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and C.G. Jung: Side by Side is an anthology written by authors from different backgrounds, sharing how the lives of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Carl Gustav Jung impacted them personally and/or how they understand the relevance of these two men for our present times. Contributors to this fourth volume of the Fisher King Review include: John Dourley, Peter Dunlap, Barbara Faris, Fred R. Gustafson, John Giannini, Richard W. Hanhardt, Robert Henderson, Steven B. Herrmann, Jane A. Kelley, Jon Magnuson, Francisco (Paco) Martorell, Stan V. McDaniel, Dennis L. Merritt, and Laura A. Weber. Though C.G.Jung and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin never met, their independent intellectual inquiries and courageous researches pushed the personal and collective soul forward and placed both of them at the foreground of needing to understand and integrate on a planetary level the core values of their expansive work. Both Jung and de Chardin were concerned with science and religion and operated within these paradigms. Both of them shook the world by offering up views, on one hand, of the profound depths of the human psyche and, on the other, presenting a profound re-consideration of evolution as a process leading toward a social unification of the planet. One used the concept of individuation, the other spoke of evolution. Each took these concepts to a creative depth so much so that the world they lived in either deeply admired or detested them. Both had conflicts in their chosen fields. Jung was a psychologist who used the field of science to explore the religious depths of the human soul by studying mythology, world religions, folk tales, dreams, and human behavior. Chardin used the ground of religion to work in the field of science via paleontology, geology, and physics as he explored a deeper and relevant understanding of evolution. Though each began from different intellectual platforms, they each crisscrossed into the other’s territory of inquiry and related their ideas to include the full scope of humanity. One went deeply into soul and found matter, whereas, the other went deeply into matter and found soul. In their own ways both spent their careers trying to heal the split between spirit and matter in the weltanschauung of their times reflected in the human psyche and in the general religious views permeating most of Western culture.

Download or read book Consecrating Science written by Lisa H. Sideris and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debunking myths behind what is known collectively as the new cosmology—a grand, overlapping set of narratives that claim to bring science and spirituality together—Lisa H. Sideris offers a searing critique of the movement’s anthropocentric vision of the world. In Consecrating Science, Sideris argues that instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the new cosmology encourages human arrogance, uncritical reverence for science, and indifference to nonhuman life. Exploring moral sensibilities rooted in experience of the natural world, Sideris shows how a sense of wonder can foster environmental attitudes that will protect our planet from ecological collapse for years to come.
