How 666 Stole Jesus

Posted by admin in July 27th 2010  


Whilst Christians may suspect unsubstantiated claims surrounding the prophet Jesus Christ it is hard for most to get to the truth. Despite every effort to locate substantial evidence of his existence, outside of the bible, nothing stands up to scrutiny. My research, however, established that he never existed. His birth, life and death is based on ancient mythology dating from the Ice Age. The ideas surrounding such a being were stolen and used for power and control by a willful emperor.

Horror stories of hell and threats of eternal punishment await doubters and dissenters who dare question the establishment or their belief in Jesus Christ. Logic states, however, that with the size of the universe stretching almost to infinity it is impossible that a ‘man’ could be the creator of it. The ruse that the so-call ‘Son of God’ died as a criminal to save everyone is also a carry on from earlier beliefs.

Destruction of records, denial of religious origins and bluff by perpetrators behind the fraud effectively blinds and deafens us to the facts. This author, with full memory of reincarnation and of being between lives, unearthed irrefutable evidence to prove his nonexistence. In the same manner heaven and hell are shown to be mere strings of manipulation.

The mystical celestial kingdoms dominated by a male God extend from the prehistoric era when big men gained power and control. Kings emerged as gods on earth and rulers of the after-life. Their word was law and their actions taken as sanctioned by God.

So good is the deception from that time that men still trade their lives for promises of heavenly rewards. So it is with terrorists who seek martyrdom based on such myths.

An examination of cognitive progress based on linguistics, archeology and anthropology uncovered the divine being of antiquity as Mother god. Her three aspects of earth, sun and light was the first Trinity while the Sun was the main object of worship. She is the ‘eye’ in Egyptian iconography while her personification satisfied a belief that the sun came to earth.

Substantial research uncovered a ritual whereby men sought god ship by dying on the cross at dawn to marry ‘her’, the sun, in ‘her-o’, the origin of ‘hero’. Terms spawned from this act are records of thought patterns and behavior from the beginning of speech and found in language. They provide the crux for understanding the ancient religions, such as that of Egypt.

Linguistic roots highlight the past and demonstrate the passage of rituals and god men from one society to the next. The circle/cross symbol is iconified in Australia, the America’s, Asia, Africa and Europe. Sacred sites include mountain tops and the peaks of man made hills, pyramids, and ziggurats.

As new discoveries threatened religious beliefs and the credibility of the bible they were hidden by the more powerful. Galileo first noticed that the universe has depth and more planets and stars than previously considered. The light were not the souls of the dead so where is heaven?

Later Copernicus proved that the earth was not the center of the universe but merely one planet out of several that rotate around the sun His book was banned after publication following his death. The threat to heaven and hell was enormous and as people began to question the bible many were burned alive or otherwise tortured and murdered.

Darwin’s book on evolution was banned for a hundred years and to this day religious bodies insist on creation in 6 days as correct. The evidence, therefore, points to a conspiracy and cover up of the facts to protect the establishment which promotes heaven and hell, devil, angels and saints.

Armed with these facts plus memory of reincarnation and while delving into records never before seen confessions from the real authors of the New Testament came to light. The mysteries created by religious leaders to stop the curious from discovering the conspiracy surrounding Jesus Christ have been undone and the truth about the man described in the bible as 666 is finally out.

Ecological Costa Rica Real Estate Market

Posted by admin in July 23rd 2010  


So here are a few examples of the ‘truth’ that affects Costa Rica real estate of the 9th May 2008:

1. Costa Rica remains a safe and peaceful haven for many real estate investors and entrepreneurs from other countries in Central and Latin America.
2. With the Central American free trade agreement a ‘done deal’, real estate investors, business people and entrepreneurs are no longer in a ‘wait and see’ mode, they are now coming here from the USA, Mexico, Spain, Germany and other countries in Europe.
3. In 2007 Costa Rica attracted 27 new foreign high technology companies which generated some 6,352 jobs and about US$421 million in investment. For a tiny country like Costa Rica, that’s huge!
4. Boston Scientific announced that they will invest another $35 million over the next three years and add about 1,200 employees.
5. The German company Continental AG will produce electronic components for car transmissions in Costa Rica after investing US$61 millions dollars in their new manufacturing facility in Alajuela.
6. The Baxter medical equipment company which has over 1,300 employees in Costa Rica recently opened a new, first of it’s kind 152,000 square foot sterilization plant in Cartago. This new manufacturing facility in Cartago, has already been recognized with the 2008 Shingo Prize for Operational Excellence, the first to be awarded the Shingo Prize outside North America and they are being “honored for their achievements in driving higher quality and improvements in productivity, manufacturing cycle time and customer lead-time.”
7. “Thanks to the human resources of Costa Rica,” Intel builds the most powerful processors in the world right here. Intel has invested about $800 million in Costa Rica over the last ten years and will invest another $90 million in 2008. “Costa Rica plays in the greatest technology leagues. Thanks to Costa Rica talent, millions of people can connect to the web.”
8. While the working class and the middle class continue to be decimated in the USA as jobs move inshore to countries like Costa Rica and offshore to China, Costa Rica has plenty of work. At the job fair a few weeks ago, companies including Procter & Gamble, Intel, IBM, HP & Fujitsu (recognize any of those names?) are having trouble filling 8,000 positions they have available.
9. And while America’s biggest banks and some of Wall Street’s largest investment firms are literally begging for money from foreign investors and the USA is by far the world’s largest debtor, after 40 years of deficits, Costa Rica will close 2007 with a surplus…

In any market, be it stocks, bonds, commodities or real estate, there are always pockets of opportunities so while the blood maybe running in the streets of certain real estate markets, I can assure you from first hand personal consulting experience with well over 100+ transactions in the last 12 months, that Costa Rica continues to boom as an emerging market, the real estate market in most parts of the country is excellent and there are plenty of opportunities for the savvy investor.

Advantages of Retiring in Costa Rica

Posted by admin in July 15th 2010  


Costa Rica has become a popular destination for vacations, weddings, honeymoons, and many other trips. It has also become home to many resorts, conferences, and social gatherings. With so much hype about this country, you may consider retiring there. You are not alone. Many people from the United States and other English-speaking countries have retired there. There are many advantages of retiring in Costa Rica.

First of all, the lower cost-of-living in Costa Rica makes it a great retirement spot. Your savings and your retirement income will buy you more in this Central American country than it will in the United States. If you lived and worked in Costa Rica, you would also receive a lower pay, which would balance out the lower cost-of-living. However, retirees have the advantage of receiving the same income no matter where they live. By retiring in this country, you can save a lot of money.

Another great thing about retiring in Costa Rica is that the local people are so polite. Politeness is a major part of the culture. You will find that polite and helpful people come in especially handy when you have moved to a new place and do not know your way around that well.

You will also love the weather in this region. It is warm year-round. The only drawback is that the country does have a rainy season. If you really dislike the rain, this country may not be for you.

The wildlife in the country is amazing. There are all sorts of animals and plants. It is very green in this country, and the scenery is beautiful.

Costa Rica also has beautiful beaches on both sides of the country. If you really wanted, you could visit the Pacific beaches on one side of the country and the Caribbean beaches on the other side all in the same day. You can relax on the beaches, but you can also engage in various activities such as SCUBA diving or fishing.

Before retiring in Costa Rica, you want to think about it carefully. Research the country and the retirement laws. You do not want to make such a major decision on an emotional whim. If you have not visited the country, try visiting it a few times before deciding on retiring there. Also, remember that Costa Rica is a Spanish-speaking country, so you probably want to start learning some Spanish if you plan on moving there.

Whatever you do, good luck and have fun!

The Quest For the Historical Israel – Archeology and History

Posted by admin in July 14th 2010  


Israel Finklestein and Amihai Mazar, The Quest for the Historical Israel: Debating Archaeology and the History of Early Israel. Invited Lectures Delivered at the Sixth Biennial Colloquium of the International Institute for Secular Humanistic Judaism, Detroit, October 2005. Atlanta: Society of Biblical Literature, 2007.

In this collection, two prominent Israeli archaeologists share their credo and philosophy as well as their views on the history of early Israel. They are not far apart. Both make it clear that they differ from revisionists or minimalists like Philip Davies and Thomas Thompson and also from the biblical school founded by William Albright. Finkelstein calls his position the center between those extremes.

The view from the center is that the Deuteronomistic History, Torah, and many prophets were compiled and edited in the late monarchy, not in the post-exilic or Hellenistic periods as revisionists claim. This view also maintains that there is historical value in the biblical historical accounts. Finklestein makes it clear that he cannot go along with revisionists who maintain that much of the Hebrew Bible was invented out of thin air. He says: “It is unthinkable that the biblical authors invented stories only in order to serve their aims. Had they done that they would have lost credibility among the people of Judah, their target population.” (p. 18)

These lectures also bring out significant disagreements between Finkelstein and Mazar. Mazar still maintains there was a united monarchy under David and Solomon while Finklestein argues that David and Solomon were no more than chieftains in an underdeveloped south that was not yet a state. Mazar also stretches the period of biblical origins to the eighth through the seventh centuries rather than limiting it to the reign of Josiah. He criticizes Finklestein as seeing too much of the Deuteronomistic History as a reflection of Josiah projected backward, for Mazar thinks the collecting and editing involved passing down recollections showing the influence of earlier periods. Both scholars believe in viewing history retrospectively by honing in on the period of Josiah and looking backward from that point as through a telescope to see what parts of early history have value.

All in all, these scholars are not far apart on most of what they have to say. One of their biggest differences is that they use different approaches to dating Yigael Yadin’s discoveries at Megiddo, thus leading to their divergences over the united monarchy.

This collection can be recommended to anyone interested in seeing how archaeology impacts the history of early Israel. I would also recommend the statements of personal philosophy in the first and last lectures they give.

Planning a Nantucket Island, Massachusetts Getaway Vacation Part 4

Posted by admin in July 10th 2010  




This is Part 4 of a series of articles.

After you decide how you will get to Nantucket and then how you will get around in Nantucket after you get there, you must decide on where to stay. Keep in mind that most hotels and inns require a two or three-night minimum stay during high season, special events, and holidays. When you call for reservations be sure to clarify each hotel or inn’s reservation policy.

Visitors of Nantucket Island in Massachusetts will find a grand selection of both nightly and weekly lodging to suit every type of vacation plan, style and budget. In this article, I will review just a few. Keep in mind there are many, many more options.

One of the most unique ways to experience Nantucket is renting one of the cottages that are set within the island’s bustling waterfront and just a short walk from historic downtown. I know this would be a choice of mine. The cottages offer a good spot from which to explore the town, and especially on foot.

Define what type of accommodations you need and want. Is this a vacation in which you want the ultimate in luxury, and when nothing but the very best will do? If so, then the Nantucket luxury hotels and inns are probably the best choice for you. They offer the finest in creature (your pets) comforts, special touches and the very best of top notch services. Some choices to explore might be:

o The Summer House Cottages: These are part way between the town of Nantucket and the far end of the island. The village of Siaconset offers an outstanding quaint and charming atmosphere. The country store is in a focal point of town. These summer houses and cottages are mostly in grey weathered shingled cottages that border a path to the inn. The cottages are covered with blooming roses in summer, which is beautiful d?cor for a summer vacation by the sea. Do you like to relax outside and daydream? There are comfortable chairs scattered around the lawns especially for this purpose it seems. Across from the inn is a long stretch of beach and an Oceanside swimming pool which is nice if you like to take afternoon dips or just for poolside lounging. For lunch and dinner, there is a Beachside Bistro that provides meals in season. In the Summer House you will find a restaurant. The d?cor includes a piano bar and high bar stools. The smell of fresh Nantucket foods fills the air.

o The White Elephant: Is within a short walk of all there is to see and do in Nantucket, Massachusetts. It is a luxurious hotel that overlooks the harbor. There are 54 rooms and spacious suites and 12 cottages. Most of the guest rooms are filled with light from the sun and have fantastic water views. Of course, their choice of chairs, ottomans and the like are especially for the guest’s greatest comfort. You will find a desk in which you can stop for a few minutes and write out your postcards to all those friends and family you left behind for a few moments of bliss in Nantucket Island, Massachusetts. Included also is a library where port and cheese are served every afternoon, a business lounge and a fitness center. There is a bar adjoined to the Brant Point Grill which is noted for steak and seafood dining. You can also dine outside if you choose on a green lush lawn that meets the harbor situated just behind the hotel. For those business trips, the White Elephant offers several conference and meeting facilities.

Is your Nantucket Island vacation getaway especially for a romantic adventure? If so, you might check out some of the following choices of lodging accommodations:

o The Sherburne Inn: Is a Nantucket historical inn that features eight rooms that are romantically furnished. They feature either a queen or king canopy or four-poster bed. Two beautiful parlors, one on each side of its two floors, are each very comfortably furnished and inviting for moments of relaxation after beach and town activities. They also feature a home baked continental breakfast that is served each morning in the dining room or on the patio and courtyard. Tea, sherry and freshly baked goods are served at the end of afternoon. Coffee and tea is available throughout the day. It is a short walk to shops, restaurants, museums and other activities. The Sherburne Inn in historic Nantucket is open year round, which provides for a romantic vacation getaway at any time of the year.

o The Cliff Lodge: How about a wood burning fireplace in your room? There are eleven romantic rooms in this very distinctive Nantucket inn with wood burning fireplaces in three of those rooms. The third floor has some smaller, romantically decorated rooms that share a bath, which make for cozy places to stay as well. Enjoy your breakfast in the dining room and lounge around on the brick patio. Continental breakfast includes granola, many different kinds of bread and pastries and coffee. Enjoy tea in the afternoon.

For family Nantucket vacation getaways you might check out some of the following lodging accommodations:

o 76 Main Street Inn: This is one of the grand sea captains’ homes that have been turned into an inn along the coast of New England on the Nantucket Island. It is conveniently located on Main Street in historic Nantucket Town. The inn features a grand entry and formal parlor with beautiful wood floors and moldings all original to the house. Guest rooms have a private bath and are traditionally decorated. There are fourteen room in the Main House and six larger rooms in the Annex, which makes it nice accommodations for families with children.

o Nantucket Inn: Is located two and half miles from town near the airport. It has 100 guest rooms in several buildings all separated by landscaped courtyards. The inn provides a variety of accommodations for guests traveling with friends, a group or as a family. The inn features indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts and a fitness center. A complimentary shuttle bus transports guests to and from town and nearby Surfside Beach.

Do you need to watch your budget on this Nantucket vacation getaway? Review the following choices for stretching the budget:

o Centre Street Inn: Has 13 rooms in Nantucket’s historic district. It is one of the most charming and affordable lodgings on Nantucket Island in Massachusetts. It was built in the mid-18th century as the home of Peter Folger. Peter Folger was a Nantucket whale oil trader. The inn is historically charming throughout. It has been furnished with antiques and the family innkeepers own things which help to create casual charm. Canopied beds and an antique pine buffet are part of the furnishings.

o The Cottages at Boat Basin: If you are one who wants to be a part of the harbor’s bustling activity, the Cottages at Boat Basin may be just right for you and are easy on the budget as well. The cottages stretch out along the sides of Nantucket Harbor’s wharves. Boats of all sizes and looks are moored at the Nantucket Harbor wharves, which can provide a trance-like, never-ending fascinating experience. There are 23 cottages that range from studios to three bedrooms. Each cottage has its own living, dining and kitchen areas, deck or patio. Maid and concierge services are offered (how wonderful is this?). A major grocery store is just one block away from the cottages for you to easily and conveniently stock up on items you need and want. Six of the cottages allow your pets. Dogs or cats are welcomed with their own accommodations of treats, chew toys, a bed, food and water dishes, even a Nantucket bandana is provided, plus more for your pet friends! I believe this might be a better choice for me and the Shih Tzu when we travel to the Nantucket Island in Massachusetts.

Planning a Family Vacation — Tips for Getting Out and About on Your Trip

Posted by admin in July 8th 2010  


A vacation is grand, but there is more to it than just arriving and lounging around in your hotel. When planning a family vacation, these tips will help you enjoy your daily excursions.

When you leave your hotel for the day to go out sightseeing, be sure to write down your hotel name and address on a slip of paper.? This is especially important if you are traveling out of the country and are in a city you are unfamiliar with.? My friend and I were vacationing in Quebec City one time and we forgot the name of the hotel we were staying at.? Luckily, she found a business card from the hotel in her purse, so we were able to tell the cab driver where to take us.

Don’t forget to bring your cell phone with you.? Even if you don’t plan to use it, keep it with you just in case of emergency.

If you are traveling out of the country be sure to carry some of the local currency with you.? Don’t rely on your credit card all the time as you may have an unexpected costs such as a parking fee, admission to a park, or other such unexpected expenses.

Call ahead to the places you plan to visit to make sure you know what their hours are and also cost of admission.? Some places open early or close late or vice versa on a whim.

Try not to over schedule your day.? If you try to pack in too many activities each day you’ll be too tired to fully enjoy your vacation.? It’s better to see less sights and enjoy yourself more.? You can always come back and visit again another time.

No matter what you are doing it’s a great idea to bring along some bottled water.? It’s a lot cheaper to just bring your water with you and refill it at water fountains rather than paying full price each time you get thirsty.

Many large museums offer free admission on certain days of the week.? Go online and see if any of the museums in the city you plan to visit have these special price days.

I think the best place to carry your money is in a waist pack as it is out of the way, hard for someone to steal, and easy for you to access. Also great if you are going on rides at a theme park. The worst idea is a big bulky purse or backpack.

If you’re going shopping, shop where the locals go.? Ask for advice from people who live in the area and try to avoid the tourist traps.

If you plan to make any large purchases when you’re out shopping, try to pay with a credit card.? That will make it easier to dispute any charges if need be.? It is not a good idea to carry around a large amount of cash.

When planning your next family vacation, use these tips to make your daily outings more enjoyable.

Tunnels By Gordon And Williams – The Next Harry Potter Book?

Posted by admin in July 3rd 2010  


Tunnels — This book has been discovered by Barry Cunningham, the discoverer of J K Rowling and her enormously successful series of books about Harry Potter.
Gordon and Williams self-published 2,500 copies of this book – under a different title: The Highfield Mole. This was two years ago because they thought they would not have success with mainstream publishers. Recently, a hardback copy was being offered on Amazon for ?1,500. The authors have so far earned advances of ?500,000 by selling orders with major chain worldwide.
JK Rowling’s multi-million publishing sensation will leave an enormous niche in the market for children’s books, once the seventh and final book is published in July 2007.

You will be able to buy Tunnels sometime early on in July 2007.

46 Year old Roderick Gordon, who is a father of 2, was made redundant as an investment banker in 2001.
Brian Williams, 48 years old, who studied art at The Slade in London, has worked as an artist, in films and as an actor.
They have been friends since being students and have always been fascinated by archeology.

Recently, Barry Cunningham, the publisher, JK Rowling discoverer, was in New York considering film offers from three Hollywood studios for Tunnels – even though its publishing date is after July 2.

“I have never had so many film people trying to get hold of me,” he said.

Brian Williams was reported to say “The idea of a secret world underneath our feet hit us in an instant and after that, Rod and I never looked back. We couldn’t write fast enough.”

The book features a teenage boy archaeologist who discovers a new world under London by digging into tunnels below the city. It is a fast moving adventure that really stirs your imagination and completely absorbs you into the depths of the book you are reading.
