Beschreibung

In "The Essential Works of Robert G. Ingersoll," readers encounter a compelling compilation of the writings of one of America's most provocative orators and proponents of secularism. Ingersoll's eloquent prose navigates the turbulent waters of 19th-century America, addressing themes such as agnosticism, religious skepticism, and the interplay of science and morality. His unique literary style combines incisive argumentation with lyrical rhetoric, appealing to both the intellect and emotions of his audience. As a product of his time, this collection not only reflects the societal upheavals surrounding the Civil War but also engages with the burgeoning debates over religion and rationalism that defined the period. Robert Green Ingersoll, often dubbed the "Great Agnostic," was a prominent lawyer, public speaker, and advocate for free thought during the Gilded Age. His background in law and his early experiences with religious fervor shaped his later critical stance on organized religion. Ingersoll's tireless fight for civil liberties, women'Äôs rights, and the separation of church and state highlight his commitment to rational inquiry and ethical humanism, illuminating the philosophical underpinnings that inform his essays and speeches. This collection is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the roots of modern skepticism and the role of humanist thought in shaping contemporary dialogues on belief and reason. Ingersoll'Äôs passionate and articulate defense of freethought serves not only as a historical artifact but as a timeless reminder of the importance of critical thinking in the face of dogma. Dive into these essential works for a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.

    What if your darkest desire was also the salvation of your relationship? 
    Emma and Rose have been together for ten years. Ten years of love... and routine, of silence, of looks that no longer burn. Until a suspicious message on Rose's phone changes everything. Instead of breaking apart, Emma lets herself be carried away by an unexpected flood: the thrill of watching. Of spying. Of obeying. 
    What starts as a suspicion turns into a dynamic of power, lust, and submission that awakens the deepest desires of both. Rose, dominant, cruel, and addicted to control, finds a new way to love through play, humiliation, and exposure. Emma, sweet, emotional, and insecure, discovers that being used, shared, and marked gives her something she thought she'd lost: pleasure... and belonging. 
    This is an intense, uncensored erotic story about a couple's relationship reborn through pain, surrender, and consensual perversion. Featuring explicit scenes, BDSM dynamics, cuckolding, fetishes, and moments of deep emotional connection, this novel is not for sensitive readers. 
    But if you dare to watch, feel, and surrender... welcome to this journey where love and humiliation dance to the same rhythm.

    There is an elite group that control the world. They run governments, companies and religions. They have done so for a very long time. Their names have changed, their faces altered but their bloodlines remain the same. We see glimpses of their power. We see the outcomes of their plots and schemes. We see revolutions and war. We succumb to their propaganda and manipulation again and again. Most have no idea that they are under the spell. 
     
    In the 18th century they emerged briefly into the spotlight to bring about world-wide cataclysmic change and they called themselves the Illuminati. Quickly they spread and embedded themselves and their ideals within other secret societies. The French had a bloody revolution. America turned the tide against a royal regime. Russia, Spain and more, all fell to the zeal of a new world order. 
     
    This is the story of the world's most powerful secret and sacred order.

    The United States began 1942 determined to avenge Pearl Harbor, but the Allies, now including the Soviet Union by necessity, did not agree on the war strategy. In 1941, both the Germans and British moved armies into North Africa, where Italy had already tried and failed to reach the Suez Canal. The British sought American help in North Africa, where British General Bernard Montgomery was fighting the legendary “Desert Fox,” General Erwin Rommel. At the same time, Stalin was desperate for Allied action on the European continent that could free up the pressure on the besieged Soviets. 
    President Roosevelt had a consequential decision to make, and he eventually decided to land American forces on North Africa to assist the British against Rommel, much to Stalin’s chagrin. While the Americans and British could merely harass the Germans with air power and naval forces in the Atlantic, Stalin’s Red Army had to take Hitler’s best shots in Russia throughout 1942. But the Red Army’s tenuous hold continued to cripple the Nazi war machine while buying the other Allies precious time. 
    Despite fighting in North Africa and the Atlantic, the United States still had the resources and manpower to fight the Japanese in the Pacific. Though the Japanese had crippled the American fleet at Pearl Harbor, its distance from Japan made an invasion of Pearl Harbor impossible, and Japan had not severely damaged important infrastructure. Thus, the United States was able to quickly rebuild a fleet, still stationed at Pearl Harbor right in the heart of the Pacific. This forward location allowed the United States to immediately push deeply into the Pacific theater. In fact, the turning point in the Pacific theater took place in 1942 near Midway Island. The Japanese had moved a sizable fleet intending to occupy Midway Island and draw the American navy near.
