The Red Pill by Frank Freeman (2 Reviews)    Price verified 14 minutes ago

The red pill from my point of view can be defined as a politically incorrect view of relations between men and women. The term derives from the film Matrix (1999) but is now commonly used as a metaphor to describe an uncomfortable truth, as opposed to the blue pill which is instead a reassuring lie. The redpill, i.e. the person who mirrors himself in the redpill vision, thus seeks to analyse social relations objectively, assessing them objectively as they are. He seeks to make a critical analysis, on the basis of scientific evidence, without allowing himself to be excessively conditioned by the mainstream view of male-female relations that is inevitably highly sweetened and stuffed with lies or at least false truths that act as a lubricant to make relations between human beings flow with less friction. This book aims to give a voice to those who consider themselves redpilled and to address and discuss the issue of male-female relationships in a critical and unfiltered manner.

Understanding How To Truly Be Saved by James Thomas Lee Jr (3 Reviews)    Price verified 14 minutes ago

Many people may find this text offensive. But my desire for many years has been to understand why so many people who regularly attend church do not get more involved in the church's ministries. While not everyone will agree with my general conclusion, it is that most of those individuals are probably not really saved. I do not want to be a judge or sound judgmental. But the simple fact is that the Bible teaches throughout that the Christian is a life of ministry and service for the Lord by the true followers of Christ. So as will be discussed in the following pages, one of my conclusions is that the template types of prayer for salvation that many people are usually told to repeat do not work. Because of that, I have tried to explain what does work and how saved people actually got saved. In my opinion, true biblical salvation does not result from repeating the simple words of a simple prayer. It only occurs when sincere people truly seek the Lord with all of their heart, when they ...

Smoking, Class, and the Legitimation of Power: Reflections on the War against Tobacco and on the Rise of the New Puritanism (Libertarian Analysis ... by Sean Gabb (3 Reviews)    Price verified 46 minutes ago

"The puritan hated bear baiting, not because it gave pain to the bear, but because it gave pleasure to the spectators." T.B. Macaulay, 1848 The "War against Tobacco" is a fact of modern life. We have high taxes, bans on promotion, campaigns against smoking, and growing attempts to criminalise smoking outside the home -- and even inside the home. In this book, Sean Gabb shows that the "War" is part of a much larger project of lifestyle regulation by the ruling class, and that its final victory will be to reduce us to a mob of terrified and atomised serfs, toiling for the enrichment of others. He examines this "War" in its political and historical and its theological aspects, showing its alleged justifications as nothing more than a discourse imposed by the ideological state apparatus. Extract: The function of the war against tobacco is to provide a set of plausible excuses for the extraction of resources from the people and for the exercise of power over them.

Chris Tame (1949-2006) was the Founder and Director of the Libertarian Alliance, and was the most prominent British libertarian of his age. The works assembled in this book attempt to demonstrate that classical liberalism (or 'libertarianism', to employ the more recent neologism for this intellectual tradition) was a richer, deeper and more systematic school of thought than is normally portrayed. They also try to analyse why that tradition went into decline, and why it has, in recent years, enjoyed a revival. A number of the essays are also attempts to apply that more systematic perspective to a number of topics in different disciplines. Contents • BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY ON CHRIS R.

M & Dee: A Wanderlust Love Story, based on True Events. by Marianne Madson (26 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

"Have I become a ghost? All I hear is divorcee, adulteress whispered behind my back while you get high fives. Dee please tell me, you never told anyone... about Sam." The book blurb is from M and Dee, my groovy early seventies pop culture memoir. The reviews describe M and Dee as an authentic 70s sounding groovy read, which it should because it really happened. So, with that said, instead of me describing the book, below is what the readers have said about M and Dee. "Ah, the 70s. This book captures well the free spirited, hitch-hiking, back-packing, train riding, grass smoking, free loving, relationship developing era of the early to mid-70's. The story contains humor, insights, quirks, and romance, but in the end it is a tragedy of the most unusual kind. Don't try to figure out the ending. You can't."

The story tells us how the man who stumbled into that previous time helps the man who wandered into the present to escape and return home. Many of the events are quite humorous while others can be downright frightening. There's also a couple of bad guy to deal with.

Angels, Giants, and Things under the Earth: Dark Studies by Joseph Dulmage (30 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

The prophet Daniel called it the Fourth Kingdom, the last great gentile empire whose military power and political environment make it possible for an evil genius to rule the world. The presence of the Fourth Kingdom is a sign of the end times -- one cannot exist without the other. In Giants, Angels, and Things under the Earth, Chaplain Joseph Dulmage applies biblical Scripture to the possibility the Fourth Kingdom is at hand. The answers are both illuminating and unnerving. As Christ compared the days before his return to the world prior to Noah's flood, Dulmage makes a serious examination of the antediluvian world, discovering uncomfortable parallels to modern times. Jesus did not mean merely that mankind would be as wicked as those who perished in the flood -- he meant the last days would mirror Noah's time in all aspects. Today's attitudes towards science and technology, Dulmage reveals, mirror Noah's generation. As for the Fourth Kingdom, Daniel's prophecy has direct ties ...
