Publisher's Synopsis
Who are we? Why are we born into this life just to die and disappear again? Where do we come from and where do we go? Every day the Earth's population is growing at an exponential rate. If we have souls and are not just pails of meat, where do all the new souls come from? All of these questions and more have been tumbling around in my head since I was young. My whole life I have been searching with an open mind for answers. The last few years I have found many that I will try to share with you. There are about seven billion of us here on Earth. Most of us believe in some kind of religion and these religions tell us, "Do what we tell you and don't start thinking for yourself." Even though these religions try to control us, I think there is some good and some true in them as well. It's just that they have become such man-made products. People with the need for power are attracted to religions, as well as politics, business and financial power systems. All of these things have built up a "trust and believe" system where we are deactivated as thinkers, so we have stopped doing the necessary thinking and reflection ourselves. In this book we are going to open up our minds and start asking questions. We are going to take in a lot of obvious ideas and analyse them. Not so long ago we were thinking that the Earth was flat, the Sun circled around the Earth, and the Earth was the centre of the Universe. All this was very true at that time, but not anymore. In this book we are going to see what else we have to reconsider. The time is here.
