Book Description
If most of us want to be good, how is it that many of us can seem so bad? Drawing on the disciplines of brain science, management, moral philosophy, public policy, and psychology—and filled with original research, surveys, and case studies, Good vs Good explains how we each prioritize the 8 Great Goods in completely disparate order. In surveys of over 2000 Americans, 1750 gave a unique sequence for their Goods. Yet, when we encounter people with whom we do not share the same prioritization of Goods, our natural inclination is to resist them and their views; leading to boardroom coups, family spats, and lovers’ quarrels. We may even find those who look at the world in divergent ways as somehow evil. The most important conflicts in human history (Cambodia’s Killing Fields, Islamic Jihads, civil wars and even presidential elections) are all about how we prioritize the Eight Great Goods. The way we rank the 8 Goods—explicit or unspoken—determines who we are and what we will become as individuals, organizations, and nations. So for anyone who is a national leader, an organizational manager or just trying to get along with co-workers or family members, Good vs Good offers insights into what is going on in our minds and in the minds of others. More importantly, this book gives readers a step-by-step game plan for how to bridge the gulf between the Goods and each other. Good vs Good shows us how our differences can actually build understanding and create solutions that may permanently improve our lives and the world around us.

Book Description
The message of this book is clear, strong, and very specific to those who call themselves evangelicals or Christians. This book clearly exposes the hypocrisy behind the evangelical’s involvement in politics in America, mainly the white evangelicals, and precisely those who have been in collaboration with the Republican Party during Trump's administration. The idea of this book based on the author’s intention is to bring to everyone’s attention that we all can be fair and human in the way supposedly we practice our responsible civic duty. It is an effort from his part also to demonstrate the poison and the danger there are in politics, its nature, and its roots. Political affiliation should not be something that divides us, or to keep us from fulfilling our responsibility as citizens of this great land: “United States of America”. Oftentimes unfortunately, this is what separates us, we forget that we are all in this together. It should never be only when we are affected by a natural disaster, a tragedy, or perhaps a pandemic to bring us together. It must and it should be our goal to come together as Americans regardless of one’s country of origin, of one’s economic status, of one’s political affiliation, and even of one’s faith. This book will help you see the problem, and precisely how the evangelicals had conflicted their faith with politics and at the same time through the wisdom of the scripture offer a workable solution whereas we all can be in one accord endeavoring to move this country forward, and by God’s grace as a result of us coming together as a nation, or as a united people, we can be a good model for the rest of the world to follow and will in turn be a better place for all of us. God bless you!

Book Description
This book is the culmination of a 20-year project which synthesizes the work of renowned social philosopher and humanistic psychoanalyst neo-Freudian, Dr. Erich Fromm and the best of Aristotle's Golden-Means doctrine merged with Sigmund Freud's tripartite division of the human psyche - ego, id and superego. This dynamic merger dictates a spherical representation of infinite blends of character traits. Extreme (therefore evil) syndromes garishly emblazon the surface of the sphere; Aristotle's practical wisdom and moral virtues, Freud's genital character and Fromm's Productive Orientation electrifies the synergistic, creative center of the sphere. Friedrich Nietzsche's moral philosophy as well as Saint Thomas Aquinas provided excellent tests of our hypothesis. Fore more on the author, see the last section, "About the Author." "For humanistic ethics all evil strivings are directed against life and all good serves the preservation and unfolding of life" — Erich Fromm, Man For Himself, 1947 "Fromm's affinity with Thomas Aquinas and the Christian theologian Paul Tillich shows us humanism and organized religion need not be hostile to each other!" — John McAlister, Ethical Universe, 2008 "Love ever your neighbor as yourselves - but first be such as LOVE THEMSELVES." — Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spake Zarathustra, 1883

Book Description
The truth is we are all just a little bit crazy in some areas of our life to a whole lot of crazy. Being miss-directed is one of the things mankind has in common as the various forms of insanity work the same way in every one of us. Weve all been programmed to unknowingly believe in a host of lies and its our belief in the need to uphold the lies that do us in. There are laws that pertain to the universe. These laws cannot be broken without creating diverse consequences. With every action there is an opposite reaction of effect. And where do the decisions we make come from? They generally come from our minds. The question then becomes, Whos controlling the mind? If your mind is at work and in agreement with you then you would rightly say you are controlling your mind. But if you occasionally find that your mind is working against you then you should consider you are not solely in control. Jesus referred to Satan as, the father of lies. I intend to show how the workings of evil are constructed through the placement of lies and how these lies in combination are at work to disrupt our lives. I will show how the longest and greatest lie is packaged and how the six major steps that makes up a combined package works powerfully against you. Then I will show how the effects from the lies get all mixed in with the pain you experience and how the end results can be devastating. This book is about our need for revelation and offers the reader an opportunity to begin a personal journey with life as it truly is. This is a lifelong journey in Spirit and truth and it begins with your full recognition of the need for having God working continuously in your life.
