Book Description
Madman, tyrant, animal—history has given Adolf Hitler many names. In Mein Kampf (My Struggle), often called the Nazi bible, Hitler describes his life, frustrations, ideals, and dreams. Born to an impoverished couple in a small town in Austria, the young Adolf grew up with the fervent desire to become a painter. The death of his parents and outright rejection from art schools in Vienna forced him into underpaid work as a laborer. During the First World War, Hitler served in the infantry and was decorated for bravery. After the war, he became actively involved with socialist political groups and quickly rose to power, establishing himself as Chairman of the National Socialist German Worker's party. In 1924, Hitler led a coalition of nationalist groups in a bid to overthrow the Bavarian government in Munich. The infamous Munich "Beer-hall putsch" was unsuccessful, and Hitler was arrested. During the nine months he was in prison, an embittered and frustrated Hitler dictated a personal manifesto to his loyal follower Rudolph Hess. He vented his sentiments against communism and the Jewish people in this document, which was to become Mein Kampf, the controversial book that is seen as the blue-print for Hitler's political and military campaign. In Mein Kampf, Hitler describes his strategy for rebuilding Germany and conquering Europe. It is a glimpse into the mind of a man who destabilized world peace and pursued the genocide now known as the Holocaust.

A Lie Told Often Enough Becomes The Truth

Pages : 78
Book Description
What is the most destructive weapon of all time? Is it a stick? A rock... Sword... Gun... Atomic Bomb? Each of these is responsible for their fair share of pain and suffering, but none have come close to the amount of destruction caused by one other weapon. This weapon does not look like other weapons and it appears far less threatening. Most of the time, its work goes unnoticed by its victims. One minute, it can be seen in a room full of military advisors, and the next it can be in the hands of a man sitting on a park bench. It can be waved overhead by an angry mob, and it can be beside a mother as she feeds her baby. When an enemy wants to conquer a group of people, his or her first tactic is not always physical harm. Their first and often most successful tactic is to change people's minds. After all, why should an enemy try to kill a group of people when he or she can enslave them instead? Propaganda is the most destructive weapon of all time. The art of deceiving the masses has been responsible for more pain and suffering than anyone can calculate. All a strategic enemy has to do is articulate his or her deception in a convincing way, then repeat it so often that the people begin to embrace it. In other words, "A lie told often enough becomes the truth." What makes propaganda so powerful is that people do not know they are under attack until it is too late. In this way, it can be comparable to rat poison. Rat poison is made up of 95 percent corn, and 5 percent poison. When an unsuspecting rodent comes upon it, he thinks it is safe to eat, as the majority of rat poison smells like food and tastes like food. However, it is that 5 percent that will kill him. Likewise, the most effective lie is the one wrapped in truth.In many countries, Muslims are instructed to study and memorize the Qur'an from the time they are toddlers. This narrative is repeated so often that it creates a stronghold in the mind and the children eventually learn to accept the narrative as "truth." A bias sets in that prohibits these individuals from looking at other views objectively. For centuries, Islamic scholars have been taking advantage of whole nations with this method of indoctrination. These practices seem to be especially effective in areas where education is limited. This is an unfortunate dilemma, especially in light of the many errors found in the Islamic writings. The goal of this book is to expose the falsehoods and manipulations found within Islam. This will be accomplished by doing a comparative study of the Qur'an, Hadith, the Bible, and historical evidence. This material, when examined unbiasedly, provides convincing evidence that the Qur'an is not preserved, historically accurate, or a direct message from God. It is the hope of the author that the reader will take the time to test and approve this material, not with an indoctrinated and biased perspective, but with equal scales and sound scholarship.

Pages : 176
Book Description
Chastity Bono is now Chaz. Her decision to “become” a man made headlines around the world, but she is not alone. Transgender men and women frequently appear on television talk shows and reality programs to share their stories. By doing so, they inevitably get the attention they seek, but not necessarily the kind of attention they want. While some come forth in an effort to promote tolerance, acceptance and understanding in mainstream society, their decision to live as—or in some cases have surgery to become—the opposite gender often sparks curiosity and more visceral reactions born out of ignorance. But this is the other side of the story. Truth Be Told: Adam Becomes Audrey is a tragedy, a comedy, and a love story. It is my story. In vivid detail, I recall how I met, fell in love with, and married the man of my dreams, only to find that he self-identified as and wanted to become a woman. Read what happened after I learned the truth.

The Truth about Lies

Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
“How do we navigate the moments of life with wisdom beyond our years and face the temptations of our hearts with courage and resolve? In The Truth about Lies, Tim leads us into a new place, setting a new framework for how to live and how to live well. If you’re ready to take the journey, I can’t think of a better guide.” John Mark Comer, pastor of teaching and vision for Bridgetown: A Jesus Church, and author of Loveology Temptation isn’t merely about winning or losing a battle. It’s about discovering who you truly are. And what matters most. On a daily basis, we are all tempted to enjoy the gifts of this world while making the Giver optional or irrelevant in our quest for life. But what if, in God’s purposes, temptation is not merely an obstacle to overcome but an opportunity to flourish in faith? Living in the truth exposes lies and turns moments of temptation into character-shaping opportunities, powerfully displaying our true identity as followers of Jesus.

The Truth About Lies
Author: Aja Raden
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1250272033
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Why do you believe what you believe? You’ve been lied to. Probably a lot. We’re always stunned when we realize we’ve been deceived. We can’t believe we were fooled: What was I thinking? How could I have believed that? We always wonder why we believed the lie. But have you ever wondered why you believe the truth? People tell you the truth all the time, and you believe them; and if, at some later point, you’re confronted with evidence that the story you believed was indeed true, you never wonder why you believed it in the first place. In this incisive and insightful taxonomy of lies and liars, New York Times bestselling author Aja Raden makes the surprising claim that maybe you should. Buttressed by history, psychology, and science, The Truth About Lies is both an eye-opening primer on con-artistry—from pyramid schemes to shell games, forgery to hoaxes—and also a telescopic view of society through the mechanics of belief: why we lie, why we believe, and how, if at all, the acts differ. Through wild tales of cons and marks, Raden examines not only how lies actually work, but also why they work, from the evolutionary function of deception to what it reveals about our own. In her previous book, Stoned, Raden asked, “What makes a thing valuable?” In The Truth About Lies, she asks “What makes a thing real?” With cutting wit and a deft touch, Raden untangles the relationship of truth to lie, belief to faith, and deception to propaganda. The Truth About Lies will change everything you thought you knew about what you know, and whether you ever really know it.
