This book is for patients or individuals dealing with the issues of alcoholism and addiction. It starts with a short story that gives a fictional account of the life of the man who discovered alcohol. It provides a new understanding of addiction without the obligatory religious perspective. In fact, it focuses on knowledge and the process needed for “changing one’s mind” rather than for merely changing one’s actions. You are exposed to the thought process that sees alcohol as a value and show the devastating impact of excessive use on your life and relationships. It is hoped that ...

These pages represent two chapters of my recently updated book, The REAL Purpose-Driven Life plus an additional chapter on good versus evil. I removed the afore-mentioned chapters because I wanted to focus, in that book, on the central moral concept known as purpose. These chapters, although central to an understanding of the morality of Ayn Rand, stand on their own and provide several important insights on how to think about morality and apply it to the life of the individual.

This short book is based upon Mr. Villegas' book "Finding Sponsors for Sport and Entertainment". It is also based upon a course that he taught for an organization managing Indiana Parks and Recreation facilities. It is, in a sense, a condensation of information from the book geared toward organizations that would like to earn revenues on their facilities through corporate sponsorship.

There are two reasons why someone might pick this book to read.First, you might think the title implies a view about how selfishness harms modern society. By this view, you might want to learn how man’s acquisitive nature causes him to devastate the lives of others.

You may seek to learn about what is wrong with the world and learn how ...

My goal in this book is to explore the impact of nihilism in society. As I mentioned above, nihilism is the desire to destroy values, and through this process, to destroy civilization. This is no small matter because nihilism seeks to impact all lives currently benefiting from advanced civilization. Nihilism centers around one concept: the desire to destroy human valuing. Today, nihilists are out in force. They own the media, entertainment, politics, education, publication and the Internet. There are virtually no voices against them and those few who fight them are locked out. Twitter "...

Today, our culture is inundated with collectivism, the idea that man belongs to the group and must obey the group’s moral pronouncements. We are told we belong to the family, the community, the church, the race, the ethnic group, etc. We are told that only the collective is important and that sacrifice to the group is the only moral act. This book seeks a different perspective. It holds that the individual is supremely important and an end in him or herself, not to be used by collectivist leaders for the sake of "common" goals. This book is “succinctly written and conveys complex ...

This fictional work assumes that Adolf Hitler did not commit suicide in his Berlin bunker toward the end of World War II, but instead, was able to survive and escape to South America. This work presents the author’s reflection of the meaning of Nazism and fascism and attempts to extract that meaning from Hitler’s life and final words.

A logical fallacy, on the other hand, is a faulty thought process that violates a rule of proper thinking. A rule of proper thinking is a rule defined by logicians through discovery of logical truths and how to frame good arguments. Correct arguments are defined as proper generalized expressions that define logical truths or knowledge. With a logical fallacy, either the contrary or the contradictory of the logical argument is said to be true. In effect, a rule of logical reasoning addresses all of the common modes of valid argument while the faulty argument contradicts them. This book ...

This book analyzes Human Sacrifice and its modern form Altruism providing new insight into the most deadly and evil idea ever propagated upon mankind. The book argues clearly that altruism is the cause of most man-made catastrophes and results in harm to the individual and destruction of civil society.The book also argues that the best way forward for man is to reject the concepts of altruism and collectivism and replace them with individualism and individual rights.

What was his provenance and did he actually meet the resurrected Christ? Who wrote Revelation and what was the document’s purpose? Why was Domitian assassinated?

I just learned something about myself – and it isn’t very good. In fact, it is very bad.I learned that the opinions of Boomers don’t matter any more. We are obsolete in this new age of new knowledge. Anything we think is unimportant and false. This means my time has passed and I can teach nothing to the new generation. Our new leaders say they have a better grasp on history and the Boomers, well, we are all part of the past that is being destroyed like statues, businesses and capitalism. We have arrived at a transformative moment. Everything from the past is over and the future has ...

In his book, Behind the Ritual Mask, the author introduced the concept of cultural paradigms. As a result of these paradigms, mankind has been led down the road of altruism, collectivism and the good/evil split, all of which desecrate the value of the individual. In his research for this book, he learned about a lost religion that has come down to us. This religion, although buried in pre-history, is still being practiced today. It is called The Battle of the Sexes.

Paul and Jesus are joined in one important way; the way of a miracle. They met one day on the road to Damascus while Paul supposedly pursued Christians. Jesus, in a sense, told Paul to get with the program and stop persecuting his people. In this incident, the Bible tells us, Jesus is already dead, resurrected and leading his flock from his throne in heaven. He spoke to Paul as from a dream, knocking him from his horse and speaking to him as a spirit. It is thought he gave Paul the gift of enlightenment, a new brighter vision of a world ruled by Jesus and his Father in heaven. Paul had been...

How many times have we heard the old saw: “Capitalism has failed again” over the course of contemporary events? We heard it during the Great Depression of 1929 after Hoover had invoked tariffs and precipitated economic retaliation and a banking crisis. Along with this question usually came a statement to the effect, that “We can fix capitalism and make it even stronger by issuing economic controls or spending money to stimulate economic activity.” This book will argue that capitalism, as an economic system, cannot fail as long as individuals are free to act.

These poems were discovered among Mr. Villegas’s archives in 2016. Many of them have been read by only Mr. Villegas. Most of these poems were rejected as “not that good”. After seeing them again, he has changed his mind. These poems are expressive, fresh and spontaneously honest.
