The Council of Nicaea forced the tenets and narratives that there is only one God, and that humans are flawed and sinful and thus need saving. The saving would be at the sole discretion of the Church through the rules and ritual they created, thus effectively putting the Church in charge of everyone's life. Rimi thought, 'This was the biggest power-grab the world has ever seen. In a matter of months, the Church officials created a work of fiction that they knew would have the power to control the uneducated masses of the time.'Utham resumed with, "Religion is where book banning originates. Anything that would encourage free-thinking and acceptance of new or different ideas is strictly frowned upon. Book banning is fueled by intolerance and fear, and that is what religion promotes - intolerance and fear. Books and ideas that push against the status quo and offer support to marginalized groups pose a threat to the Christian Nationalist agenda. And this push to ban books is not a new phenomenon, in the first half of your nineteenth century, anti-slavery books were banned in your southern states. And again, during the Civil Rights era, more books were banned that supported equal rights. The strongest opposition to these books came from the ultra-conservative religious right."

After retiring from a successful career running his own business, Denny needed to find a part-time job that would allow him to keep mentally active and engaged. Consulting for Chrysler and the Air Force seemed to fit his criteria perfectly. Little did he suspect that he would uncover a rogue mission designed to kill the aliens that had brought a profound gift to Earth - dark energy machines that would provide limitless free energy and save our ecosystems. Tilting his head back, Denny ran through the current scenario and possible approaches. After a few minutes in thought, he came full-circle, 'They hired a race horse, this is not the time for me to become a petting zoo pony!'Calls with El Mohammad were always full of contrasts for Harper. Yousef El Mohammad had a smooth, deep voice and sincere tone, but Harper likened the calls to something like petting a purring lion The purring was calming, but the ever-present. Annoyed that he had to keep up the charade regarding the real purpose for the vehicle, and not wanting to be evasive any longer, Frank let out a heavy sigh and said, "C'mon, we need to go see the Colonel, I'll let him explain it to you."Patrick had been forced into a position he didn't like, but he saw no alternative. 'I don't trust them, so oI guess it's fair that they don't trust me. Ha! Mutual distrust, what a great working relationship!"

Followers of the "Truth" series written by Mr. DiCello will recognize a central theme in his writing; probing for the truth. As an active observer of human nature, Robert has witnessed the effects of 'skewed interpretations' of events. Mr. DiCello states, "These interpretations can impact individuals, families, communities, and nations to varying degrees. Whenever any individual or group accepts as fact what has been presented, without deep analysis and critical thinking, those people or groups become pawns." In the "Truth" series, Robert shows how a bright protagonist can find the truth by asking the right questions. None of his protagonists accept what is told as anything more than opinion. Regardless of the source, a critical mind will always probe. DiCello is warning us to be wary of those that appear to be friends, whose mission is to poison our thinking which will benefit the espouser.
