The Son of Man


C.W. Johnson - 2009
    I read Hal Lindsey's 'The Late Great Planet Earth' a hundred times. One thing that struck me, even back then…how could this happen? The Antichrist character is one of the most studied characters in the Bible. We are told in very graphic detail how this man will bring the world to its very knees…so with everyone diligently watching out for him, how could he possibly pull it off? This series is my humble attempt at a possible answer to that question. The Son of Man series is the story of the End of the Age as told through the eyes of both a secular world and a sleeping, unprepared religious community. It is sometimes gritty with MILD profanity and outrageous behavior. While true followers of Christ (some not so flawless) are represented in all four books they are not dominant characters in the story…that is, until the end. For that reason I have specifically refrained from labeling this series as 'Christian Fiction' until the last book in the series was released. As with any fictional story dealing with the second coming of Christ, I have expounded upon and speculated on Biblical prophecy. Rest assured, I have made every attempt to mold my story around the Prophetic Word rather than the other way around. I can tell you this: if you are a Christian, and you believe Christ could return in a test tube, you really need to catch up on your prophetic studies. This is only one aspect of the story that may not, and should not, fit your prophetic mold, but I ask you to consider: What if you're being lied to? What if you're being manipulated in an effort to throw you off track… "For there shall arise false Christ’s, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect"....Matthew 24:24 Excerpt ... The room fell silent. Jim looked at the men sitting around the table. “You people can’t be serious,” he said softly. “Even though such a thing could be done your premise is utterly flawed. A clone of Jesus won’t make him Jesus. He’d be a twin—“ “No,” Bishop Hickie interrupted. “You don’t understand. He would be another son of God.” Jim closed his eyes and shook his head. “Look… all due respect to… everyone—but cloning human beings is a major negative. You should know that. It’s illegal now, and for damn good reason. Each animal cloned today represents hundreds of failures. Most clones are stillborn. The ones that live are likely to have horrendous mutations, many of which manifest later in life, usually killing the animal prematurely. What are we gonna do with the mutated baby Jesus’— throw them away? And what happens if we are successful, and we get a perfectly healthy baby? What then? What kind of life can he have? For the love of God … people won’t understand. People will think he’s Jesus!”

The Monopolists: Obsession, Fury, and the Scandal Behind the World's Favorite Board Game


Mary Pilon - 2015
    That story, however, is not exactly true. Ralph Anspach, a professor fighting to sell his Anti-Monopoly board game decades later, unearthed the real story, which traces back to Abraham Lincoln, the Quakers, and a forgotten feminist named Lizzie Magie who invented her nearly identical Landlord's Game more than thirty years before Parker Brothers sold their version of Monopoly. Her game--underpinned by morals that were the exact opposite of what Monopoly represents today--was embraced by a constellation of left-wingers from the Progressive Era through the Great Depression, including members of Franklin Roosevelt's famed Brain Trust.A fascinating social history of corporate greed that illuminates the cutthroat nature of American business over the last century, The Monopolists reads like the best detective fiction, told through Monopoly's real-life winners and losers.
