Begging The Question: Roots Of Deception (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780980098914)

Humans in general are dominated by the sensations and thoughts with which they are identified. The repe-tition of these feelings and thought becomes their beliefs which then control their lives. They don't realize that the feelings and thoughts which arise in their consciousness are fleeting, transient and most cases don't represent anything in reality; they are not factual. More than ninety percent are self-defecting. This is sad and disturbing, because it leads us to so many erroneous views of life and existence; it's be-cause of this in anger and hatred we kill, we become dope addicts and we defraud others; we war destroying cities and kill without reason or mercy thousands of innocent people. If we stop to think, every war fought was over an ideology. This book, in its many pages, points to the insight that from moment to moment we are the sum total of the predominant thoughts we allow ourselves to think; we are only what we are experiencing. It holds the keys to transcend from the slime to the sublime, the ordinary to the extraordinary; from the mundane to the Devine. You can open the door to moral and intellec-tual insightfulness. The most precious jewelry of life is the mind of a child; it should be nurtured with wisdom, and parental love and care. Not with the myth and superstition of past civilizations; it shouldn't be imprisoned for life with mistaken dogma and creeds, which are not relevant today to live a productive life as a genuine, authentic, truthful human being. They should be taught that truth is better than make belief; wisdom is better than ignorance; sharing is better than greed, and love is better than hatred. Religion should have done this but has failed, because it is based on igno-rance, motivated by greed, and ensnared by hatred. My peeve with religion is not unwarranted; all I ask you is, look around you, is the world better for it. We've had many wars over religion, and still do. Read the history, look into the facts with an open mind. Can you imagine what would happen to the world if we nurtured the minds of the young with the truth in-stead of the lies they are exposed to? Protect them as the precious jewel they are, from the thieves, the de-ceived charlatans who steal there minds, and corrupt them for their own self-interest. Do you know why you believe all the irrational, stu-pid thing that you do? Because you were indoctrinated with them and told they were the truth. As an innocent dependent child you had no choice. And unfor-tunately, we are really imprisoned by theses beliefs, not knowing why we believe them. Let's do better with our children for future generations, and the betterment of humanity. Many dilemmas of this nature are discussed within this book.
