  The Fool and the Heretic is a deeply personal story told by two respected scientists who hold opposing views on the topic of origins, share a common faith in Jesus Christ, and began a sometimes-painful journey to explore how they can remain in Christian fellowship when each thinks the other is harming the church. To some in the church, anyone who accepts the theory of evolution has rejected biblical teaching and is therefore thought of as a heretic. To many outside the church as well as a growing number of evangelicals, anyone who accepts the view that God created the earth in six days a few thousand years ago must be poorly educated and ignorant--a fool. Todd Wood and Darrel Falk know what it's like to be thought of, respectively, as a fool and a heretic. This audiobook shares their pain in wearing those labels, but more important, provides a model for how faithful Christians can hold opposing views on deeply divisive issues yet grow deeper in their relationship to each other and to God.

  Fauci - The Bernie Madoff of...

  This was the first book, the very first, to issue a warning about the biggest crisis in science and public health. The author began sounding the alarm as a newspaper publisher in the 80s. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. brought the book to the world's attention when he recommended it to his 600,000 followers on his Instagram account in April, 2020. America is now listening. 
  This little book is a chapter from The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up Volume Two, a book that combines the history of AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with a trenchant political analysis of the science and scientists that got everything terribly wrong. 
  In his bestseller, The Real Anthony Fauci, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called Charles Ortleb, "Dr. Fauci's perennial Boswell." As the publisher and editor-in-chief of New York Native, he was the first person to devote a newspaper to the coverage of AIDS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and the careers of Robert Gallo and Anthony Fauci. Randy Shilts praised his newspaper's pioneering AIDS reporting in And the Band Played On. In Rolling Stone, David Black said New York Native deserved a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of the epidemic. 
  This book is the first book to conceptualize the medical and scientific corruption of the last four decades as a medical and scientific Ponzi scheme. It is a radical new way of looking at medical and scientific fraud that has been promoted and enabled for decades. There are ten elements that the author has identified in a medical and scientific Ponzi scheme that have hidden the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic.

  The Life and Death of Ryan White...

  In the 1980s, as HIV/AIDS ravaged queer communities and communities of color in the United States and beyond, a straight white teenager named Ryan White emerged as the face of the epidemic. Diagnosed with hemophilia at birth, Ryan contracted HIV through contaminated blood products. In 1985, he became a household name after he was barred from attending his Indiana middle school. As Ryan appeared on nightly news broadcasts and graced the covers of popular magazines, he was embraced by music icons and well-known athletes, achieving a curious kind of stardom. Analyzing his struggle and celebrity, Paul M. Renfro's powerful biography grapples with the contested meanings of Ryan's life, death, and afterlives. 
   
   
   
  As Renfro argues, Ryan's fight to attend school forced the American public to reckon with prevailing misconceptions about the AIDS epidemic. Yet his story also reinforced the hierarchies at the heart of the AIDS crisis. Because the "innocent" Ryan had contracted HIV "through no fault of his own," as many put it, his story was sometimes used to blame presumably "guilty" populations for spreading the virus. Reexamining Ryan's story through this lens, Renfro reveals how the consequences of this stigma continue to pervade policy and cultural understandings of HIV/AIDS today.
