This is a book about the AFTERLIFE, co-authored by Ken Levi, Ph.D. and Jamie Whitfield, a retired English Teacher. The two authors take opposing positions. Ms. Whitfield makes the argument for immortality, citing centuries of belief across a wide range of religions, as well as scientific studies, such as investigations into Near Death Experience. Dr. Levi offers evidence against such studies, with particular critique of the pseudo science of Dnesh D'Souza. In two successive chapters, Levi ...

This is the explosive, true-life exposé about an orchid lover's journey, and about the people who shot him down. It's about me, Luis Valdez, and how I rose to become the first Hispanic President of the Alamo Orchid Society in San Antonio, Texas. It's about how I was unanimously elected and re-elected for two terms in office, and then how the President who succeeded me kicked me out of the Club.In a larger sense, it's a tell-all tale about gross mismanagement in a voluntary society,...

Consciousness is the core of who we are. Without it, we're an empty shell. Yet, Psychologist Stuart Sutherland (1989) declares consciousness "a fascinating but elusive phenomenon: it is impossible to specify what it is, what it does, or why it has evolved. Nothing worth reading has been written on it." Philosopher David Chalmers (1996) proclaims it "the hard problem." In this book, I assemble some of the best ideas about consciousness, and add a few of my own. I lay out arguments from lead...

God is real. The evidence is solid and extensive. It's not based on blind faith or wishful thinking, but on hard science. The starting point is to strip away layers of mysticism and superstition surrounding the question of God; then, to ask: what do we really mean by a "Supreme Being"? How can we describe Him? And what evidence do we have such a Being exists? In addressing these questions, the book relies on physics and cosmology; on Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, String Theory, Black Hole...

This book is not about Donald Trump. It's about his diehard followers. How could they so zealously and single-mindedly revere someone whom we see as monumentally unfit for his job?How is it that so many people were beguiled by a vision of hate and discord, of intolerance and violence, of authoritarianism and lawlessness, of coarseness and mendacity, and of simple basic meanness? In light of all Trump's transgressions, listed in Chapter One from "a" to "z," how is it that people rema...

"I love to kill people. I love watching them die." So said Richard Ramirez, the notorious Los Angeles "Night Stalker." Can we say that he, and others like him, are pure evil? Or, is that just a matter of personal opinion? This book is about morality. It's about proving good and evil are real; that they're not just an opinion; that they are based on a measurable standard; that the measurable standard comes not from religion, not from philosophy, but from science. What is that scientific sta...

The purpose of this book is to prove the existence of the Mind of God with evidence from both science and experience. For example, the Universe is so fine-tuned in terms of its elements and laws, that it would be nearly impossible to explain it in terms of random chance. That's science. But we also have direct encounters with the Mind of God in our daily lives. That's what this book will show.Scientific evidence is good, but direct evidence is better. After all, "seeing is believin...

The Universe is God. God is the Universe. What follows is the evidence. We need to show the Universe is: Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Omniscient. Omnipotence and Omnipresence are easy. But what about Omniscience?My book "Proving God Exists" (2018) argued the Universe is Omniscient. But something was missing. And that something was: consciousness. To be Omniscient, the Universe must be Conscious. It must be Self-aware.The challenge then is to put forth good, concrete evidence ...

In Beyond Good and Evil, Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically, he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man, rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man. The work moves into the realm "beyond good and evil" in the s...
