Lies, Myths & Superstition by Norm Wilson

NEW YORK, July 27, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- There is a new book on the market that will debunk all conventional wisdom in a completely humorous manner. There is no malice intended toward anyone. However, it is not for those who do not want to challenge existing ideas. Please, read on: A bumper sticker once read: Stupidity Should Be Painful. When religious fundamentalists believe a certain philosophy that turns out to be wrong, such as climate change, it will result in everyone suffering from their dogma. What is the connection between religion and climate change? Simply this, religious people, primarily ministers, have said for centuries that we humans were put here on earth by God to have dominion over all that we observe. There was no mention of stewardship. And therein lies the problem.

When Galileo determined that the earth revolved around the sun, the church was so in sensed that they placed him under house arrest for the remainder of his life. Galileo and Copernicus were right and the church now accepts their findings. More recently, churches have condemned the LGBTQ community only to find that the general populace disagrees with them.

Where have they turned? They have directed their animosity at abortion, saying they speak for the unborn. That, too, is a lie. They speak for themselves in a self righteous attempt to legislate the morality of all in our culture. They don't give a damn about the unborn, they are just using them as an excuse to justify their dogmatism. Therein lies a very serious problem for everyone.

Within the next thirty years we will number nine billion people on a planet that has only resources enough to support half that many. Now the religious right thinks that Jesus will make his second appearance and bail us all out of our stupidity. But what if he does not return on our time frame? What if he takes another thousand years? By that time we will have made this little planet totally uninhabitable for everyone—whites, blacks, Latinos, Asians, dogs, cats, alligators, and......well, maybe not insects. They, by evolutionary standards, seem to resist extinction. That is when the dogma of a few becomes painful for all.

Lies, Myths & Superstitions is one man's attempt, in a humorous manner, to alleviate the pressure of stupidity and start everyone thinking in a different direction—not the same old rut we humans have been in for two thousand years. If we don't change now, it will be too late and we will self-destruct. No matter what we choose to BELIEVE, the truth of science will prove our BELIEFS wrong in the end.

Lies, Myths, & Superstitions will help those who can tolerate tossing out old ideas and accepting new ones. Others will just get left behind.
