This is Volume 2 of the book of the same title. This book delves deeper into the works of Eusebius and provides many clues on how church fathers advanced the works of Paul and the Gospels. For Eusebius, there was no reality without God since He was thought to be the Creator of the universe. And this view is thought to solve the questions that are left behind: What was Christ? What of those who thought that he was a mere man? What of those that thought he was the Roman General Titus?. Eusebius is, therefore, for the Christian, thought to start at the beginning. But is he? What if he was ...

The purpose of this book is to establish the theory that the apostle Peter is an alias for the Jewish historian Josephus. To support this view, we must connect both names to the Flavians, and in particular, the Roman general Titus. What does it mean that Josephus functioned among the Christians as a man named Peter? Why would he want to be called Peter? Who were his compatriots, his helpers, the men and women who helped him keep up the façade? To answer this, we must examine what facts of reality would have made it possible for him to function as Josephus as a writer of history and Peter ...

Understanding the Book of Revelation is the third and final book in the series about the conflict between Paul and Domitian over Paul’s version of Christianity which is found in the gospels. My goal is to elaborate on the story hidden between the lines of the Pastorals (Coded Messages in the Pastorals), the sealed letters of Revelation (The Seven Letters of Revelation – A Radical Interpretation) and this book (Understanding the Book of Revelation). My goal with this last commentary is to finish the study, and, of primary importance, to demystify the Book of Revelation. Toward this goal,...

These pages represent two chapters of my recently updated book, The REAL Purpose-Driven Life plus an additional chapter on good versus evil. I removed the afore-mentioned chapters because I wanted to focus, in that book, on the central moral concept known as purpose. These chapters, although central to an understanding of the morality of Ayn Rand, stand on their own and provide several important insights on how to think about morality and apply it to the life of the individual.

This book is written for companies that want to explore the benefits of sport and entertainment sponsorship. This book is the culmination of years of study, experience and success. As a marketing and sales manager for many years, I have experienced the many permutations involved in sport sponsorship and advertising in general.

Domitian’s contribution to religion is virtually unknown. Yet, as this book illustrates, he is the father of some of Christianity’s most profound concepts. The goal of this book is to define the specific themes and concepts that make up Domitian’s religious precepts – in a sense, we are defining the specific Domitian overlay to the Christian materials developed for his brother Titus. In the author's previous book on this topic entitled Unkilling Jesus, he presented analyses to support the thesis that Jesus was a fictional composite of the Emperor Vespasian, and his sons Titus and ...

In 2025, three of the largest sporting events in the USA, the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and the Indy 500 will be broadcast by the same national television network. With the addition of the Indy 500 on Fox Sports, the race teams competing in this event have received a major boost in their value proposition to prospective sponsors. The Fox Sports Network will likely provide a platform that will broaden the size of Indy Car fandom and increase the number of sport fans business deals, cross-promotions, and social media opportunities.. In addition, the development and growth of AI (Artificial...

This second volume adds the knowledge and experience that my company has gained since writing the first volume known as “Finding Sponsors.” After having made thousands of phone calls, engaged in many presentations and negotiations and helped teams and organizations obtain funding, we feel we are uniquely positioned to write this book. Since the first volume, we have also worked to develop funding opportunities in the entertainment industry for agents, marketing companies and concert/party promoters. Our experiences in developing sponsorship proposals have been invaluable to our efforts ...

When a group of people decides that their views cannot be wrong, they give themselves license to engage in whatever activities they think are justified. Yet, the view that they cannot be wrong is the height of bigotry. Such people think it is immoral to disagree with them. In fact, for them, only immoral people would stand against them. This state of affairs exists today and there are two groups who think they can’t be wrong. These are the communists and the Christians. Both groups, and their associated fringe groups, fight each other for the right to control the lives of men without ...

For Eusebius, there was no reality without God since He was thought to be the Creator of the universe. And this view is thought to solve the questions that are left behind: What was Christ? What of those who thought that he was a mere man? What of those that thought he was the Roman General Titus?. Eusebius is, therefore, for the Christian, thought to start at the beginning. But is he? What if he was starting at the beginning of a hidden secret, not reality, not true history? What if there is a secret left buried in the past, long forgotten, and long ignored? This secret would be that of ...

This book explores the following questions: How was the story of Jesus’s life written? Who was Paul and what was his role in the creation of Christianity? What was his provenance and did he actually meet the resurrected Christ? Who wrote Revelation and what was the document’s purpose? Why was Domitian assassinated? Who was Clement and what was the nature of his relationships with Peter and Josephus? Were the Pseudo-Clementine materials really “pseudo”? Why did Saulus attack Justus? How were the gospels written? What was the significance of the library fire during the reign of ...

This book is the shorter version of my book Paul’s Agon. It seeks to provide a more succinct expression of the key points in that book which is over 500 pages. These chapters represent the issue of what the Apostle Paul actually did and how it has impacted during the two centuries since he invented Christianity and Jesus. Robert’s Razor is the name I have given to the mindset of rejection of anything that cannot possibly be intellectually. Robert’s Razor, similar in intent to Occam’s Razor, rejects any idea that reeks of the mystical and the non-sequitur. It also rejects any moral ...

Sometimes a book just comes together. As I am writing the various sections, I do not always realize how they are supposed to go together. With this book, I was particularly concerned about which chapter should be the first, the chapter that offers a highly positive perspective or the chapter that offers a negative position. In this book, I reverse the general view that many people have about both egoism and altruism. Where many people regard altruism as superior morally, I reverse the tables. In my view it is egoism that is morally superior, and I explain here what is good about egoism and ...

This book is Volume 1 of a two-volume work on “How they Wrote the Gospels”. It lays the foundation for many of the ideas presented in the companion “Volume 2” book. Needless to say, I hold that there was a conspiracy of a team of men whose goal was to secretly convert the Roman general Titus into a benign, love-laden Jewish prophet, and to back date him to remove him from the times in which he lived. What these conspirators wanted to do was to preserve the ideas of this Roman general, thought to be so inspiring and important that they didn’t want to lose them and have them buried ...

This book provides the key decision steps that will help you conceptualize and plan your sponsorship sales activities. Not only does it consolidate many of the principles in my previous writings on sponsorship, but it gives you the ability to think-through those fundamentals and helps you improve your sponsorship sales efforts. If you would like a more direct action experience for your sales activities, you can purchase soft cover and hard cover versions of “The Sponsorship Sales Idea Book and Journal” on Amazon.

I believe it is the focus on religion that represents one of the major problems of the First Amendment. If you focus only on protecting freedom of religion, you ignore the other areas of expression, especially the opposite of religion which is atheism. Shouldn’t there be a freedom to unbelief? By ignoring the wider concept of freedom of philosophy, you set the stage for a distorted perspective on freedom of speech. This ignores the freedom of people not to believe as well as the freedom of people to create entirely new fields that are influenced by science and the pursuit of new knowledge...

Adam Reborn is an allegory for the stage. It uses the Biblical symbols of Adam and Eve to tell the story of man’s relationship with God. In this story, Adam and Eve are young and heroic people learning to deal with a Paradise and a God that are hostile to them. There is no chance of life and everything that is natural to them is cut off, given no chance for fruition. They sense this; they feel the vacuum in their souls, and they are uncertain as to how to deal with it. The man/woman relationship suffers as it must under such strains; independence is too essential to it. How they deal with...

This book is about Kant’s atomic bomb. Obviously, this term is a metaphor utilizing the destructive power of a real atomic bomb to describe the devastation wrought by Kant’s philosophy. We will strive here to describe the factors and elements that are harming people and societies and devastating lives all around the world. “(A)tomic bomb, weapon with great explosive power that results from the sudden release of energy upon the splitting, or fission, of the nuclei of a heavy element such as plutonium or uranium.” An idea can have a tremendous impact because the people moved by exert ...

The goal of this booklet is to introduce young people to the economic system known as capitalism. It is my contention that capitalism is the best economic system in the world. The benefits of capitalism have been left out of the discussion in our universities, and I consider this a travesty. In fact, most college professors today know that if young people were to become aware of the benefits of capitalism, they would reject fascism, communism and socialism, each of which are coercive in nature. Scholars, college professors, and politicians today (properly called pragmatists) have engaged in...
