This book liberates evolution from misrepresentative scientific myths to find a more nuanced vision of life that shows how advantages persist, trust is beneficial, and the diversity of species emerges.

The origins of life, species, and man continue to interest scientists and stir debate among the general public more than one hundred and fifty years after Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species. The Evolution Myth approaches the subject with two intertwined objectives. Jiří A. Mejsnar first sets out to convey the advances made in cosmology, molecular biology, genetics, and other sciences that have enabled us to change our views on our origins and our relationship with the universe. Scientific advances now allow us to calculate, for example, the age of the universe, the period in which biblical Eve lived, and, with good justification, to reconsider the possibility that the Neanderthals and primates might be our ancestors. The author’s second objective is to use biology to explain why evolution cannot have taken place in the way that is most commonly assumed. Mejsnar builds his case around gene stability and on the sophisticated modern techniques for gene manipulation, the complexity of which make these modified genes inaccessible to nature. Development of life on Earth is a discontinuous, saltatory progression that results in stages following from preceding latent periods in which new forms suddenly appear and possess new types of genome. This, the author argues, is difficult to reconcile with the hypothesis of continuous biological evolution based on the natural selection of random variations. Taking a new approach to a much-debated subject, Mejsnar distills complex information into a rreadable style. The result is a book that as sure to get readers talking.

Gives a description of evolutionary theory and analyzes the arguments of the creationists.

A comprehensive, scholarly accessible study, in which the authors draw upon poetry and mythology, art and literature, archaeology and psychology to show how the myth of the goddess has been lost from our formal Judeo-Christian images of the divine. They explain what happened to the goddess, when, and how she was excluded from western culture, and the implications of this loss.

- Do you ever have questions about the universe and how it came into being? - Have you ever wondered where you came from and what is your purpose in this life? - Do you think it would help if you were presented with a rational, scientific explanation as to the origin of the universe and life as we know it? This book offers scientific evidence about the origin of the universe that leaves no doubt that it was planned and executed to manifest itself as an ordered system. This order is apparent in the very fabric of matter and life as we know it. There is a direct link between matter and life that can be traced back to a single origin or reference. Its structure and manifestation are defined by an intelligent designer. Any ordered system must have a fixed reference as its origin, with sequential components that can only be directed by an intelligent designer. This process is far from random as, by definition, it is ordered. Only intelligence has the ability to define and execute order. The idea for this book came from a prophesy that was communicated to me which, at the time, I did not understand. I was told I would get wisdom from the HOLY SPIRIT and to get it I would need to do nothing. The next few months I kept wondering 'what could it be', but kept an open mind. I then started getting thoughts about the universe and the order manifested in it. I discovered that this order is universal in its manifestation. What causes order in the universe? Can it initiate itself? When I thought about the law of entropy it was obvious that order had to be planned and then communicated to matter for it to conform. Order requires sequencing and timing and there has to be a fixed reference before it can be successfully used in a practical application. This book is a summary of the more common ordered systems in our world and shows that planning, referencing, sequencing and sometimes timing are an integral part of all ordered systems. Intelligence is the most important element in developing an ordered system as intelligence sets the reference and all other components in the system. It was also evident that this principle is applicable to our thought process. GOD gave us commandments to help us maintain spiritual order, but also free choice so we could disobey them. However, disobeying would result in SIN or disorder. Since the universe is an ordered system it must have been initiated or created by an intelligent being, GOD. Intelligence defines and creates order. Order and randomness are mutually exclusive. The process of evolution cannot, therefore, create order because it has no fixed reference or understanding of sequencing. Order also needs constant maintenance. Uploaded to site.

The History of Middle-earth traces the evolution of J.R.R. Tolkien's literary world, stories, and characters from their earliest written forms to the final revisions Tolkien penned shortly before his death in 1973. Published posthumously by Tolkien's son Christopher, the extensively detailed 12-volume work allows readers to follow the development of the texts that eventually became Tolkien's immensely popular The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings, The Silmarillion, and Unfinished Tales. This work provides a thorough study of Tolkien's life and influences through an analysis of The History of Middle-earth. The work begins with a brief biography and an analysis of the major influences in Tolkien's life. Following chapters deal with elements common to Tolkien's popular works, including the cosmogony, theogony, cosmology, metaphysics, and eschatology of Middle-earth. The study also reviews some of the myths with which Tolkien was most familiar--Greek, Roman, Finnish, and Norse--and reveals the often overlapping relationship between mythology, biblical stories, and Tolkien's popular works.
