  Francis Bacon said: “If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts, he shall end in certainties.” 
   
  This book is about the ultimate question. There is nothing that has been pondered more by mankind and nothing more divisive. Is there a God? 
   
  We divide ourselves into groups because of the different answers we have created. Many misunderstand or create concepts of what God actually means and believe it to be the one defined by Christians, Jews or Muslims. And yet, many, when pushed with some profound philosophical questions about the origin of the universe have no answer, other than we came from nothing. 
   
  Did we come from the mind of a creator, or from absolutely nothing? These are our stark choices. To have faith and believe. To deny all and accept existence from nothing. Or to accept we still do not know. What are you?

  Dogwhistles and Figleaves - How...

  It is widely accepted that political discourse in recent years has become more openly racist and more accepting of wildly implausible conspiracy theories. Dogwhistles and Figleaves explores ways in which such changes—both of which defied previously settled norms of political speech—have been brought about. Jennifer Saul shows that two linguistic devices, dogwhistles and figleaves, have played a crucial role. Some dogwhistles (such as "88", used by Nazis online to mean "Heil Hitler") serve to disguise messages that would otherwise be rejected as unacceptable, allowing them to be transmitted surreptitiously. Other dogwhistles (like the 1988 "Willie Horton" ad) work by influencing people in ways that they are not aware of, and which they would likely reject were they aware. Figleaves (such as "just asking questions") take messages that could easily be recognized as unacceptable, and provide just enough cover that people become more willing to accept them. Saul argues that these devices are important for the spread of racist discourse. She also shows how they contribute to the transmission of norm-violating discourse more generally, focusing on the case of wildly implausible conspiracist speech. This book is the first full-length exploration of dogwhistles and figleaves. It offers an illuminating and disturbing view of the workings of contemporary political discourse.

  Why are aliens so widespread in ancient tradition, mythology, religion and even now in our modern age? 
   
  The truth can be found within the mind and it’s connection to another plain of existence. We can see this 'dark' side of the mind and alien connection because many of the methods used by ancient man to access his own internal world. This internal world may in fact be connection to the multiverse and other realms of existence. 
   
  Sometimes with the use of drugs and sometimes with other methods such as meditation or prayer we can access this other dimension. Sometimes the bodies own hormone drug cabinet will open up a pathway for us to wander freely. 
   
  There are always two sides to every tale and so we have to walk a pathway between these world's of order and chaos. This pathway is multi-levelled. It is the hypnagogic - the point between waking and sleeping. This state of being enables us to be aware of the unconscious world. Within this realm man can see and experience what Carl Jung termed archetypes - things we all see. What is becoming clear today is that these archetypes, witnessed across time by mankind, are in reality true connections to other dimensions. 
   
  This is the tale of those connections. The moments in humanity when we have come face to face with what we call, aliens. And these aliens have more than influenced our history, they have created it.

  A detailed and fully illustrated look at aerial combat in the closing year of WWII across all theaters of conflict. The final year of World War II witnessed the decline of the piston-engine fighter and the beginning of the jet age. Taking to the skies were tried-and-true fighters, improved versions of old aircraft, and newly developed jets, including prototypes that flew for the first time just before the war ended.   In Air Combat 1945, historian Donald Nijboer examines these dynamic aircraft through hundreds of wartime photographs depicting operations across Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific. This volume covers American Mustangs, Thunderbolts, and Shooting Stars; British Tempests, Spitfires, and Gloster Meteors; German Fw 190s, Bf 109Ks, and Messerschmitt Me 262s; Japanese Ki 100s, Raidens, and Tojos; and many more.
