  This audiobook delves into the enigmatic world of the Illuminati and secret societies, unveiling their history and influence over global affairs. The Illuminati, real and fictional, are portrayed as elusive elites shaping our world. Their origin dates back to the late 1700s with the Bavarian Illuminati, founded by Adam Weishaupt and guided by the enigmatic 'Father of Illumination'. Since then, numerous groups have claimed Illuminati status, their links to Weishaupt's vision uncertain. These legends have fostered a culture of secrecy and fear, intertwining conspiracies of unimaginable power with Illuminati symbolism. Celebrities, musicians, and politicians have been implicated in this narrative, but does the Illuminati truly wield world control? 
   
  This audiobook investigates the historical ties between the Illuminati and secret societies and their impact on global events. We delve into Weishaupt's legacy and explore potentially nefarious activities within these organisations. The audiobook scrutinizes whether these groups possess the power to dominate the world and, if so, contemplates potential countermeasures. 
   
  Join us on this illuminating journey as we plunge into the shadowy realm of the Illuminati and secret societies that exert influence over our world.

  The Birth of Anarchism - 1849-1887

  Mankind can rule itself without the force of top-down authority, and freedom is more than just choosing how to meet the needs and demands of capital. Inequality is structural and intentional, not inevitable and necessary. It does not have to be this way. In solidarity, we are better.Think for yourself, and question authority.This is the essence of anarchism, which has a bad name and reputation because it attacks the necessity of centralised power and authority. The media archetype is Tyler Durden, filled with violence and nihilism – yet anarchism is the most positive of political philosophies, one that Jesus and Buddha both preached, stating that empathy and a rejection of authority were key to human flourishing. Neither would disagree with most early anarchists.Proudhon, whose “property is robbery” is perhaps the most well-known anarchist slogan, lays out the conceptual foundation for key anarchist ideas. He argues that usury (charging interest) is a fundamental harm to society, that there is enough for everyone if we simply take other values to be higher than capital gain, that mutualism is inevitable, and that all governments and ideologies make the same mistake, in trying to change society from the top. Positive change must arise from the great masses of humanity, not from their rulers.Bakunin's speeches are about solidarity arising from the masses, and the ground for a global reconfiguration.Louis Lingg was convicted to death with six others, for being one of the ‘Chicago Anarchists’. They were executed to make a political point, based on corrupted evidence and perjury. His statement is one of contempt for the powers that be, and his belief that mankind should be free and should fight until it is.We end with Kropotkin, who firmly believed in decentralized society. He believed that the greatest strength of mankind lies in the masses, not their rulers, and exhorts us to “Act for Yourselves”.

  After a few moments of intense and unexplainable anxiety his junior year of high school, Kevin’s brain health issues began to get worse. Over the next two decades, he experienced unremitting anxiety and months-long battles with intense depression. 
  As a driven athlete and competitor, Kevin became obsessed with finding both the cause and the cure. In spite of the psychiatric community's insistence that a “diagnosis is forever” and “management is the best you can hope for,” Kevin kept searching for just one person who had been diagnosed with a “mental Illness” and recovered. 
  Meanwhile, his issues haunted him into early adulthood, leading to hospital stays and a suicide attempt that nearly ended it all. Open to trying any healing modality that offered the hope of a cure, Kevin tried 1,000s of therapies and drugs. “What’s wrong with me” became his mantra. “What’s wrong with me” became the echoing backdrop that was both driving his brain health condition and propelling him forward with an obsession to find answers.

  Preparing for War - The...

  The insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, was not a blip or an aberration. It was the logical outcome of years of a White evangelical subculture's preparation for war. Religion scholar and former insider Bradley Onishi maps the origins of White Christian nationalism and traces its offshoots in Preparing for War. 
   
   
   
  Combining his own experiences in the youth groups and prayer meetings of the 1990s with an immersive look at the steady blending of White grievance politics with evangelicalism, Onishi crafts an engrossing account of the years-long campaign of White Christian nationalism that led to January 6. How did the rise of what Onishi calls the New Religious Right, between 1960 and 2015, give birth to violent White Christian nationalism during the Trump presidency and beyond? What propelled some of the most conservative religious communities in the country—communities of which Onishi was once a part—to ignite a cold civil war? 
   
   
   
  Through chapters on White supremacy and segregationist theologies, conspiracy theories, the Christian-school movement, purity culture, and the right-wing media ecosystem, Onishi pulls back the curtain on a subculture that birthed a movement and has taken a dangerous turn.

  Tolkien For Beginners

  Tolkien For Beginners will introduce the reader to the multilayered depth and breadth of Tolkien’s tales of Middle-earth, what critics, following Tolkien’s lead, refer to collectively as his legendarium. J.R.R. Tolkien sweeps us away to a distant time and place that is at the same time, our own time and place. He takes us to a world where difficult choices must be made and are made, where character is defined by those choices, and where redemption is possible though not always embraced. The Lord of the Rings taps a deep root in the human psyche. There is much death, destruction, and defeat in Tolkien’s world, but there is even more friendship, courage, and hope. What one remembers when one finishes reading The Lord of the Rings is not the vice of the villains, as strong and as well drawn as it is, but the virtue that empowers the heroes to resist it, even at the cost of their own lives.  It will be the goal of Tolkien For Beginners to introduce the reader to the multilayered depth and breadth of Tolkien’s tales of Middle-earth. To do justice to the full dimensions of that legendarium, author Louis Markos will speak in two voices: that of the storyteller who loves the stories he tells and that of the critic who seeks to identify and explicate key themes from those stories. In his telling and analysis, he will treat the legendarium both as a collection of secondary-world myths with their own integrity and as a reflection of Tolkien’s Catholic worldview.
