Book Description
The global events rapidly unfolding around us are a source of alarm and confusion to many. Conflict, hatred and violence, often perpetrated in the name of religion, have become the order of the day. What is the Jewish perspective on these matters? Is there a reason the Jewish People is almost invariably at the vortex of these conflicts or is it just a coincidence? Where is all this leading? Is there an end goal to history?In this thought-provoking and compelling work, Roy S. Neuberger explores the broad picture of world history through the prism of the Torah?s timeless wisdom. Using historical patterns and precedents as indicators and harbingers of the future, he presents a structured and gripping approach to navigating the Worldstorm and a vision of how the storm will end.

Book Description
Synopsis: An uninteresting man of mistaken importance struggles to understand his role in life. This imaginative and thought-provoking book of quips, reflections, and antagonisms reads in the spirit of science fiction. The author deems it “philosofiction”. Δ * * * The year is 2066. Silverberg, the world’s youngest and undisputedly most powerful country, generally entertains only the most prominent visitors and immigrants. However, this year it has intentionally attracted an otherwise uninteresting young man of average station. When the powers that lured him cannot find him, the hunt begins. Misunderstanding his importance, multiple operatives of high station and various loyalties race to find him. As time progresses, the intensity thickens. Those who join this man find their own lives disrupted and changed forever, swept up by the storm surrounding him. While he means no harm to anybody, his pursuers will not rest until he is found and destroyed. It is only a matter of time. Bombarded with varying opinions about the truth, this man struggles for discernment and understanding, but what he believes cannot save him - or can it? * * * Pragmatic dogma, theology, and atheology collide and argue in the background as we follow this unhero through a quick, comedic, dark, and philosophical journey of determining what he is - deciding between God, Man, and The Machine. This 316 page volume includes maps, art, footnotes, appendices, and more. Δ Phi·los·o·phy Investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods. Fic·tion A literary work whose content is produced by the imagination and is not necessarily based on fact.

Book Description
Hitler: socialist artist and the top graphic designer of all time. His flag symbol represented “S shapes for SOCIALISM.” That is one of many amazing discoveries by Professor Rex Curry. This book reveals Dr. Curry’s surprises about Adolf Hitler’s socialist symbolism including: (1) Hitler’s socialist salute from USA socialists and their flag Pledge; (2) Hitler’s socialist vocabulary; (3) logos for NSV, SA, SS, VW, Hitler’s flag, and his other socialist emblems. As socialism’s top ad man, the creative genius pioneered public relations. In his German version of “Mad Men” Hitler revealed how to sell socialism and sell himself. Other historians were unable to discover Hitler’s socialist symbolism and branding. This book exposes many other examples of ongoing American Brainwashing and Global Brainwashing that is maintained by Web Search Engines, Artificial Intelligence (AI), the MSM, historians, and by socialist schools (government schools) and universities. Modern political debates often describe only two opposing alternatives as “Nazis” versus “Communists”. The description is a hoax: the words “Nazis” and “Communist” divert attention from the larger shared problem of “Socialism.” Most scholars believed (mistakenly) that Hitler called his group Nazis and Fascists; they were ignorant of how Hitler self-identified: "SOCIALIST." They hid in their ivory towers of Babel. Scholars suffered the fate of Echo in Greek mythology, forever forced to repeat the falsehoods they heard. Ignorant of Hitler’s diction, they spoke the language of lies. Then historians learned about Dr. Curry’s academic breakthroughs. For years, Dr. Curry was a modern-day Cassandra: He uttered prophetic truths that were ignored by professional liars in academia and media. The famed linguist was the only scholar who eschewed popular linguistic misnomers (e.g. Nazi, Fascist, Third Reich, swastika, etc). He taught accurate terminology (e.g. SOCIALISM and SOCIALIST and Hooked Cross or Hakenkreuz). Dr. Curry inspired the academic battle to bring honesty and linguistic accuracy to the field of history. Please join the fight against anti-semantic teachers. Educational Outreach Programs (EOPs) energized by Dr. Curry's successes are the only services that school modern scholars that "Hitler self-identified as Socialist. He did not self-identify as Nazi, nor as Fascist". The re-education resources are unique. If you ever see a sentence like the following one, then you know it was from EOPs for Dr. Curry's philosemantic scholarship: "Hitler didn't call himself Nazi or Fascist, he called himself socialist". Today, Dr. Curry is a trailblazer in linguistics and about Hitler’s nomenclature. The watchdog historian brought revolutionary changes to the English language. He is rewiring brains. He is opening eyes to old lies about German socialism’s true lexicon. More and more commentators and educators are following Dr. Curry’s lead. Linguistic EOPs above led to many amazing historical discoveries, including revelations about Sophie Scholl’s White Rose group; Anne Frank’s Diary; Joseph Goebbels’ “Der Nazi Sozi”; Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf”; Martin Niemoller’s verse “First They Came For the Socialists”; the swastika symbol; the hexagram (Star of David); the etymological history of “Roman Salute”; planetary brainwashing; how Web Search Engines and Artificial Intelligence (AI) spew lies about socialism, Marx, Mein Kampf, and Hitler; and much more! Except for the American Linguist Laureate Dr. Rex Curry, every other historian did not see how the USA’s Pledge of Allegiance led to Nazi salutes and Nazi behavior; and how the original pledge’s use of military salutes led to Nazi salutes. Also, historians hid how Hitler is the top socialist graphic designer: his flag was semaphore for “SOCIALISM.” Historians did not see Hitler's complementary semiotics in his NSV, SA, SS, & VW logos, as compared with the logo of Hitler's party: the National Socialist German Workers Party. Even today, only exceptional scholars with extraordinary skills (e.g. Dr. Curry) are able to discern the “S”-letter shape of the NSV’s logo (The National Socialist People's Welfare; in German: Nationalsozialistische Volkswohlfahrt). The "S" symbolism is almost as difficult to perceive as in Hitler’s Hakenkreuz (hooked cross). It is as undetectable as in the symbols for the SS and SA (Schutzstaffel and Sturmabteilung). All historians (other than Dr. Curry) did not see how Hitler used his party's symbol to represent "S"-letter shapes for "SOCIALIST." Do you not see? Professor Curry transformed the culture of India along with Hinduism and Buddhism. Before Dr. Curry’s discoveries, Buddhists and Hindus published complaints that “Hitler stole their swastika symbol and ruined it and they want to restore respect for their ancient symbol.” Educational Outreach Programs (EOP) about Dr. Curry’s work taught India’s commentators that Hitler’s symbol was not a swastika, and that Hitler never called it a swastika. An upheaval occurred among Buddhists and Hindus in their objections. Now they proudly assert: “Hitler called his symbol a Hakenkreuz (hooked cross), not a swastika. It was not the same symbol. Dr. Curry told us!”

Book Description
Pardon This Intrusion gathers together 47 pieces by John Clute, some written as long ago as 1985, though most are recent. The addresses and essays in Part One, "Fantastika in the World Storm", all written in the twenty-first century, reflect upon the dynamic relationship between fantastika - an umbrella term Clute uses to describe science fiction, horror and fantasy - and the world we live in now. Of these pieces, "Next", a contemporary response to 9/11, has not been revised; everything else in Part One has been reworked, sometimes extensively. Parts Two, Three and Four include essays and author studies and introductions to particular works; as they are mostly recent, Clute has felt free to rework them where necessary. The few early pieces - including "Lunch with AJ and the WOMBATS", a response to the Scientology scandal at the Brighton WorldCon in 1987 - are unchanged.
