A century ago Ambrose Bierce published his The Devil's Dictionary. The tradition has now been revived, one may presume by way of the same nefarious source, in the form of The Democrats' Dictionary. The great French philosopher Voltaire said, "If you would debate with me, define your terms." Voltaire himself composed his own Dictionnaire Philosophique, a work in which he defined his philosophical opponents' terms for them, as did Ambrose Bierce. It is by so doing that one is best able to expose the absurdity of counterpositions. Democrats, like politicians from all quarters, are masters of obfuscation. Their "talking points" seldom reveal their true positions or agendas. The purpose of this modest dictionary is to provide something of the transparency which is so wanting among the Democrats and which they themselves are loathe to provide. Shall they thank me then for my service? In speculating on that answer, my policy shall be to obfuscate. "A relentless exposé on the duplicity which is the Democrat Party." (Jeff Becker, Author) "When C. S. Lewis had written his Screwtape Letters it was alleged that the author knew the Devil better than he knew himself. I believe Comix has amply demonstrated that he knows the Democrats better than they know themselves." (Satan, The Prince of Darkness) "I'm totally confused, folks." (Joe B., Politician)ANDREW MARVELL COMIX-Named for the famous seventeenth-century English poet and satirist, Comix brings the art of political satire up to date.

In Volume V of Interpersonal, Interdimensional, Intergalactic, Skinner writes about our possibilities on planet Earth during the time frame of the next 100 years (and maybe beyond). In addition, he writes of his communications about possibilities with the alien Ellowah, a Pleiadian female and Light Being, from the World of Spirit. In his communications with her Skinner inquires about the ancient civilizations of Lemuria, Atlantis, and Mu. He writes about the higher consciousnesses of some of their citizens, their spiritual awareness levels, and their significant technological advances that were well beyond what mankind has developed on Earth today. Skinner believes it is relevant to write about the ancient civilizations of Lemuria, Atlantis, and Mu so that mankind can be aware that more advanced civilizations in technology, personal awareness abilities, and higher consciousnesses existed on planet Earth long ago in Earth's history. While communicating with Ellowah about these three ancient civilizations, Skinner inquires about what happened to these civilizations and how their citizens handled dramatic natural disasters that affected them in the demise of their respective continents and land masses. Skinner also communicates with the alien Light Being, Ellowah, about what she "sees" happening on planet Earth in the next 100 years related to rapid technological advancements, environmental awareness, and changes in human consciousnesses. He also communicates with her about mankind's consciousnesses on Earth since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in America in the late 1800s through 100 years from now. In his writings (with the help of Ellowah) Skinner essentially compares human life in America 150 years ago with today (2021) and then communicates about the human possibilities on Earth for over the next 100 years. Skinner also writes about Earth Changes, awareness of aliens on or near planet Earth, our Creator's gift of the "Light" to mankind, the World of Spirit, changes in human consciousnesses, new personal awarenesses that might emerge, how to deal with negative aliens, what might happen to world currencies and economies, and other interests that humans might have during the future time frame included in his work. Skinner expects natural disasters to occur in the next 100 years on Earth because that has been the history of life on Earth since the beginning of time. He personally believes that the Earth will experience some very severe natural disasters in the next 100 years, but these disasters will not be of the severity that caused the demise of the three ancient civilizations that he inquired about. He also does not believe these disasters will bring about Earth Changes that resulted in the maps of the Earth's future which were published near the end of the last century. Skinner would remind all humans that people are born into the world with the abilities to handle the times that they will be living in on Earth. Also, Skinner reminds the reader that historically, mankind has been slow to change. Usually, mankind has to be somewhat desperate in order to change or he truly becomes aware of some new possibilities on Earth that he decides he just cannot live without. Changes in mankind's consciousnesses are expected to be slow coming, while changes in technological and environmental achievements are expected to come quickly for mankind on Earth.

As a teacher of young children, I've been asked many questions; some of them about God. Most often they want to know if He is real. We know younger children have trouble understanding things they can't physically experience. This book shares a way to introduce kids to God through His creation. It uses simple text, illustrations and beautiful photographs to help them see God in a way they can relate to Him. I hope it will be a beautiful resource for you.
You cannot and will not reach Spiritual Efficiency without first dealing with GUILE.These two scriptures (John 1:47,48) inspired me to write this book. We all should want to be like Jesus and this scripture is the key. When there is no GUILE we are close to perfection. Yet the problem is we are always fighting with GUILE. There is never a vacation from it. It is a constant battle that we have.Notice the scripture when it says NO GUILE. We can never say that we have not dwelt with some form of GUILE. Jesus in all his time of earth never had GUILE but as you can see in this book we deal with it on a daily basis. Once we get out GUILE we can walk with God the more as did Enoch in the Bible.

Poems in Bringing the Light are full of thoughts and ideas about the world workings as applied to a human soul.

It is the poetry of direct address, with the discourses that are enlivened, more than ever, by unpredictable lines of approach-departure and by an uncanny sense of language's expressive possibilities.

Love in itself is truly a miracle. Those of us who have experienced true love will attest to that. This book is about unconditional love. It is a romantic novel but not without many trials. The intent is to bring to light the struggles some people must face to finally achieve this miracle of love. Sometimes it takes adversity and many days of despair and self doubt. Our main character, Karen, faces a tremendous upheaval in her life as a result of a car accident. Karen had never realized what courage, conviction and faith were needed to face this great adversity but also experiences finding her true love. In these pages you will hopefully experience some of the struggles, disappointments, despair and feeling of unworthiness that encompassed Karen during her time of rehabilitation. You will also experience how her faith and love of her family, as well as finding her soul mate, will bring such gratitude and love to Karen's life. In writing about the myriad of feelings, doubts (some real and some formed by feelings of lack of self esteem and acceptability) that Karen faced, it emphasized everyone's need to be loved and accepted. As a society we need to be aware of how we treat everyone - and especially aware of how difficult life can be for those unfortunate enough to be disabled. I hope you will walk in Karen's footsteps as you read through these pages and, perhaps, stop to consider others in your journey through life.
