The Study

By: Joseph Mills

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

This book, under construction over the past fifty years, uses history and fiction to connect the dots of known and unknown periods in the development of the human race. It presumes that God lives on a heavenly planet (Xeros) somewhere in our vast universe, that all humans begin at Level 3 and have the opportunity to move up to Level 2 (Angels) and then to Level 1 (Archangels), that He is colonizing planets throughout this universe, and that a battle between God and Satan (good v. evil) permeates His every decision. The book focus is on planet earth, the use of a natural disaster to exterminate the dinosaurs, the story of Adam and Eve and the process of populating planet earth, the story of Noah and the great flood, and the story of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who was sent to save mankind. The book then explains the development of Christianity, the hidden story of the Nephilim, the Rapture and Revelation, Armageddon, the thousand year reign, and the new Heaven and the new Earth. In summary, The Study offers a message to the reader—that each Level 3 person makes choices every day, that each human being is so helpless without God's protection, that the end of life on planet earth is very close, and that one must believe in Jesus Christ to achieve life everlasting.

Canada in NATO, 1949–2019

By: Joseph T. Jockel,Joel J. Sokolsky

The story of Canada in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is one of consistent support and involvement but of varying levels of military and diplomatic engagement. Canada in NATO, 1949–2019 provides the first analysis of Canada’s involvement in the Atlantic Alliance – from the negotiations leading to the alliance’s charter in 1949 to NATO’s seventieth anniversary – exploring how the country’s role in NATO has evolved over the years. As one of NATO’s early, foremost participants, Canada was a major force contributor in the 1950s. Briefly deploying more modern fighter aircrafts in Europe than the United States had, as well as a naval commitment that would have been responsible for 10 per cent of ship escorts across the North Atlantic, Canada became the “odd man out” of the western alliance as the Cold War wore on due to its spotty military contributions. Yet Canada eventually re-emerged as a significant member through its contributions to NATO peace enforcement operations in the Balkans in the 1990s and its heavy contributions to operations in Afghanistan in the early twentieth century, finding itself in the unfamiliar position of criticizing many of the allies by which it had for so long been criticized. As the lead nation for the alliance’s “enhanced forward presence” in Latvia, Canada still plays an important and highly visible role in NATO’s efforts in Eastern Europe today. Canada in NATO, 1949–2019 sheds light on how NATO profoundly shaped Canadian defence and foreign policy, while also serving vital Canadian security and diplomatic interests.

Plantanimus

Return to Mars

By: Joseph M. Armillas

Return to Mars is part 2 of the saga of Kelem Rogeston, a 27th century Martian psychic and scientific genius. After being stranded on the alien world Plantanimus for six years, Kelem and Ndugu Nabole return to the human solar system courtesy of the Kren, the insectoid species they met while on Plantanimus. Upon their return they learn that the Phalanx, an evil fascist organization from Earth, has taken over the Terran Government and invaded Mars. The red planet has become a slave colony for Earth, forced to manufacture goods and technology for the mother planet. Kelem joins the resistance and eventually becomes the leader of the Martian rebels. With his psychic powers enhanced by his connection to the Dreamers of Plantanimus, the sentient plant life he met while stranded there, Kelem and the rebels defeat the Terran invaders. Return to Mars is full of epic space battles, sinister characters bent on total control of the Martian population and powerful psychics fighting on both sides of the conflict.

The Biology of Transcendence

A Blueprint of the Human Spirit

By: Joseph Chilton Pearce

Uses new research about the brain to explore how we can transcend our current physical and cultural limitations • Reveals that transcendence of current modes of existence requires the dynamic interaction of our fourth and fifth brains (intellect and intelligence) • Explores the idea that Jesus, Lao-tzu, and other great beings in history are models of nature’s possibility and our ability to achieve transcendence • 17,000 sold in hardcover since April 2002 Why do we seem stuck in a culture of violence and injustice? How is it that we can recognize the transcendent ideal represented by figures such as Jesus, Lao-tzu, and many others who have walked among us and yet not seem to reach the same state? In The Biology of Transcendence Joseph Chilton Pearce examines the current biological understanding of our neural organization to address how we can go beyond the limitations and constraints of our current capacities of body and mind--how we can transcend. Recent research in the neurosciences and neurocardiology identifies the four neural centers of our brain and indicates that a fifth such center is located in the heart. This research reveals that the evolutionary structure of our brain and its dynamic interactions with our heart are designed by nature to reach beyond our current evolutionary capacities. We are quite literally, made to transcend. Pearce explores how this “biological imperative” drives our life into ever-greater realms of being--even as the “cultural imperative” of social conformity and behavior counters this genetic heritage, blocks our transcendent capacities, and breeds violence in all its forms. The conflict between religion and spirit is an important part of this struggle. But each of us may overthrow these cultural imperatives to reach “unconflicted behavior,” wherein heart and mind-brain resonate in synchronicity, opening us to levels of possibility beyond the ordinary.

Space Technology & Planetary Astronomy

By: Joseph N. Tatarewicz

... the book reminds us of an important lesson in the postwar era of big science: that government policy may lead initially to tremendous support for various fields of science and technology." --Science "... a triumph of historical analysis." --Choice "This is an excellent record of the beginnings of the NASA plantetary astronomy program in the years 1958-70." --American Historical Review "The historical circumstances that led to this country's great leap into space were unique, but it is clear that there are many lessons to be learnt from this enthralling tale and Tatarewicz tells the tale well." --Annals of Science When NASA went looking for expertise on the moon and planets following Sputnik, they found that astronomers had long since turned their telescopes away from our planets and toward the stars. Where were the scientists who could help the United States explore the solar system? The answer, as this important new study shows, was that NASA had to create them This story of the precipitous rise and decline of planetary astronomy is an important case study of science in an age of state-managed research and development. It demonstrates that the lines between science, technology, politics, and society are anything but fixed and impermeable.

Babylon's Banksters

The Alchemy of Deep Physics, High Finance and Ancient Religion

By: Joseph P. Farrell

In this latest installment of his remarkable series of books of alternative science and history, Joseph P. Farrell outlines the consistent pattern and strategy of bankers in ancient and modern times, and their desire to suppress the public development of alternative physics and energy technologies, usurp the money creating and issuing power of the state, and substitute a facsimile of money-as-debt. Here, Farrell peels back the layers of deception to reveal the possible deep physics that the “banksters” have used to aid them in their financial policies. Feral House also published Farrell’s Philosopher’s Stone: Alchemy and the Secret Research for Exotic Matter.

Thunder and Lament

By: Timothy A. Joseph

Thunder and Lament

Lucan on the Beginnings and Ends of Epic

By: Timothy A. Joseph

Lucan's epic poem Pharsalia tells the story of the cataclysmic "end of Rome" through the victory of Julius Caesar and Caesarism in the civil wars of 49-48 BCE. This book argues that Lucan's poetic agenda moves in lockstep with his narrative arc, as he fashions the Pharsalia to mark the momentous end of the epic genre. In order to accomplish the closure of the genre, Lucan engages pervasively and polemically with the very first works of Greek and Roman epic - inverting, undoing, and closing off many of the tropes and themes introduced in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey and in the foundational Latin epic poems by Livius Andronicus, Naevius, and most of all Ennius. By looking at Lucan's effort to "surpass the poets of old" - a phrase Statius would use of his achievement - this study broadens our appreciation of Lucan's poetic ambitions and accomplishment. Statius also read Lucan as a poet who both thunders and laments, and this book makes the case that Lucan closes off epic's beginnings through not just gestures of thundering poetic violence but also a transformation and expansion of the traditional epic mode of lament. In his story of violent Roman self-destruction and the lamentation that accompanies it, Lucan at the same time uproots and marks the end of the epic song"--

Elucidation of Necromancy

Lucidarium Artis Nigromantice Attributed to Peter of Abano

By: Joseph H. Peterson,Peter Of Abano

Since it first appeared over 500 years ago, the Elucidation of Necromancy (Lucidarium artis Nigromantice) and the closely related Heptameron have become essential guides for individuals seeking to call on angels and other supernatural beings for help. Countless amulets and pendants have been made with its designs, and elements have repeatedly been adapted and incorporated into other manuals of ritual magic. In spite of this, neither a critical edition nor a translation has been previously published. In particular three manuscripts of Lucidarium have come to light recently, which provide a clearer and fuller ritual than the printed Heptameron. For example, they add critical instructions for making the seven angel sigils, which have become so widely known. Together they bring to life this important current of esoteric tradition, showing how it has been repeatedly adapted and used by different individuals for centuries.

The Identities of the Beast from the Sea and the Beast from the Land in Revelation 13

By: Joseph Poon

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Identities of the Beast from the Sea and the Beast from the Land in Revelation 13

By: Joseph Poon

This book aims to identify the beast from the sea and the beast from the land in Revelation 13 by studying their unique link together with the dragon in Revelation 12: the land beast is subordinate to the sea beast, which in turn is subordinate to the dragon. The early sections of the book provide a review of previous scholarship, the influence of Daniel 7 in understanding Revelation 13, and the Leviathan-Behemoth motif in several apocalyptic writings. The core of the book, however, seeks to demonstrate that the relationship of the two beasts and the dragon fits well with the tripartite hierarchy that Georges Dumezil has discovered as one of the dominant structures of relationships in Indo-European mythological traditions. In congruence with the criteria of the three hierarchical levels in Dumezil's system, the dragon concerns the ultimate sovereignty in a supernatural sphere, while the sea beast and land beast are found, respectively, as a warlike figure in a war context and as a figure relating to the economic theme. Based on this finding, the book concludes that the two beasts represent the imperial power and the imperial cult, as most commentators believe.
