Midnight Streams - Untwisted Truth

By: Michael J Hoogasian

And the truth shall set you free... I know my family loves me. How? They communicate love through their words and actions. So if God loves me so much more than any person ever could, shouldn't I be able to see it? hear it? feel it? EVERYWHERE? If this is true, why are there so many people that don't? Untwisted Truth shares Michael's observations using his teaching experience and some musical satire to describe his understanding of God's constant loving communication. Perhaps getting to know the reality of God's omnipresent love is as simple as cleaning an eyeglass lens... Enjoy!

Canticum Caritatis with Imprimatur

By: Michael J Hoogasian

We can all try but inevitably fall short of describing God's Great Love. Here is my current attempt... This series of rhymes will carry readers through a love story that began in the Garden of Eden and hopefully ends with the reader sharing eternal life with Christ our Savior. This an excellent introduction to salvation history and the Bible for those with little to no understanding of scripture. Additionally, it serves to revitalize the faith of believers and encourages all to search through scripture passages to help make sense of God's grand revelation to mankind. Enjoy!

The Shamanic Themes in Armenian Folktales

By: Michael Berman

“In Marxist anthropological theory, shamanism represented one of the early forms of religion that later gave rise to more sophisticated beliefs in the course of human advancement … The premise of Marxism was that eventually, at the highest levels of civilization, the sacred and religion would eventually die out” (Znamenski, 2007, p.322). Though history has of course since disproved this, the theory clearly had a great bearing on what was written in the former Soviet Union about shamanism, and also on people’s attitudes in the former Soviet Republics towards such practices. On the other hand, it has been suggested that “all intellectuals driven by nationalist sentiments directly or indirectly are always preoccupied with searching for the most ancient roots of their budding nations in order to ground their compatriots in particular soil and to make them more indigenous” (Znamenski, 2007, p.28). Although this might apply to searching for the roots of Christianity in Armenia, when it comes to searching for the roots of pagan practices, interest on the part of the people of Armenia is generally speaking not so forthcoming. This impasse, coupled with the effects of the repressions against religions, including shamanism, unleashed by the Soviet government between the 1930s and 1950s, along with the recent surge of interest in the Armenian Orthodox church, a backlash to the seventy years of officially sanctioned atheism, makes research into the subject no easy business. However, hopefully this study will at least in some small way help to set the process in motion.

Township

Diffusion and Persistence of Grassroots Government in Illinois, 1850-2000

By: Michael D. Sublett

The contemporary method of township government arrived in Illinois in the middle of the nineteenth century. Replacing the commission method of county government, which Illinois had employed since statehood in 1818, the township innovation spread south and westward across Illinois, almost completely ousting the county commissioners. Today, the commission format survives only in seventeen peripheral and largely rural Illinois counties. This book asserts that townships have persisted partly because they offer vital services at a reasonable cost to taxpayers, but also because of a vigorous defense of the method made by township officials with political connections in the Illinois general assembly. Discussing the successes and failures of attempts by abolition-minded citizens to eliminate all or individual townships in various counties, Township focuses on the spatial diffusion, periodic threats to, and determined persistence of the township system.
