This book is about the effect of extreme narcissism on society, to include how it relates to political tyranny or human abuse by any name. In other words, autocracy (dictatorship) could come about through denial and ignorance. Watch out for politicians who cozy up to, and express admiration for, strong-man, dictator types! (Para) Many people are self-righteously opinionated haters of anyone basically unlike them or who disagrees with them politically or supposedly on religion. Some politicians often use them as brazen or unwitting tools or fools. Some even defy God in their narcissism, and claim belief in God, while refusing to abide in God's Moral Essence and live a moral life. (Para) There was a real chance, and still is, that immoral, deceitful gangster types could be elected by distrustful, misguided, or even brain-washed people. Many such voters actually had (and have) possibly legitimate worries about BIG* government, without realizing such mistrust is the propagandized mantra of BIG business, which wants to be unregulated in its anti-social, immoral "Greed." *{If there were no BIG Federal government, such worries inevitably would carry over to the political agendas of State governments} (Para) Due to misinformation, many voters were, and are, bound to change things at the risk of electing extremely flawed human beings. All citizens must live with the consequences of having politicians full of personal greed or animosity, or belabored self-consciousness and paranoid feelings of inferiority, enhanced by megalomania - all dependent fully on feelings that come from without the moral minds of individual voters. The ultimate, final outcome of such self-centered politicians, and those elect them, depends on what God has in store for this world, which very much depends on us as a society and as individuals. (Para) Having said all that, this book contains a spiritual, science-fictional UFO story genuflecting on the moral purpose the author believes our Creator intends for humankind. (Para) The "scribe" author of this work understands that "who" anyone "is" is defined by God, and only has meaning as it regards that person's relationship with God. That non-vanity concept is the very underpinning of the book. In fact, this author says he is not here, or anywhere, to promote himself, but rather to call attention to his belief in, or attitude about, God, spirituality and morality. To quote him, "I am not here to judge you. I am here to judge me, so that I might be better prepared for God's judgment someday."

★★★★★ "Great for group or personal study and reflection!" - Reader Review____In this companion book to the novel As the Daisies Bloom, August shares with Tyler a life's thoughts on what he would call his tiny systematic theology.What might Eve say after millennia of being the first scapegoat?What might the first and last wives of the great king say to us if we read between the lines?How can we walk a bit with Joseph as he rides with Mary into Bethlehem?And what does Philip have to say to the black Eunuch, and to us about church membershipJourney with the author as he imagines what we might have overlooked in the Bible stories that we teach our children.He shows how reimagining these people in voices for our time can bring to life each of these important guides, who could never have imagined how they would shape 2,000 years of Christianity, and how they can still transform us!Let the biblical stories come alive, and meet the biblical characters in a whole new way!

This book is a guide for Black Men to place into perspective the importance and significance of the time that we are living in presently. Overall, the book is about self-improvement for men which the principles in this guide should be used to better ourselves and our communities. Presented in this book is honest conversation and tangible solutions related to the positive pathways of Black Male Masculinity. The ultimate goal of this book is to teach and re-affirm in Black Men the ways in which to build/uplift ourselves and the community. I genuinely believe this is our life's mission and the purpose that the Most High intended for us to follow.
