If you are trying to persuade people to read the book you should probably stick with some enlightening passages.... assuming there are a couple.

The truth forces people to look at the hard facts and make big decisions.

Rule of the beast: The animals have ruled this world for seven hundred million years. We now have a small opportunity to change that forever. It took us about seven hundred million years to get into this position, so to not take advantage of it would be the biggest mistake we can make.

Please define truth for the millionth time. Defend your assertion, this is a discussion board not an advertising board for quack books.

You are an obvious troll, why would I waste my time with you ?
Anyway I have nothing to defend, you are defending illusions, I'm just stating the obvious.
If you took the time to read what I said, you would know the definition of the truth for a very long time now.
Oh, and since you all seem to have problems to read I will repeat again : I will be happy to answer any question via pm.

I think of tweakers when I think of this thread, and tweakers love this song.

I'm pretty convinced that moderators don't close topics like this just to be spiteful to the regulars.

People are trying to understand the universe independent of consciousness, and it is the most important factor in the equation.

The universe as it relates to conscious life can be understood now. It is the ultimate truth; the truth that will transform mankind and the world.

Witness: Be a watcher, a witness of everything passing by and through you, and you will discover that actually nothing passes by you. Everything comes to you, right to you. If it does not, it is not your life, so there is no point in thinking about it. Observe, as Sherlock Holmes once said. If you do it right, you will not miss anything that is coming to you (not sin). You will become the present.

One way: If just one of the beliefs comes true, it would not be very fair for the ones that do not. Most people do not have a choice in what they are told the truth is. People that are born and are raised in one area believe what the other people that live in the area believe. Does time and place determine your eternal future?

Doesn’t add up: Until recently, most people did not even know what people in other places believed. If they were not born in the right area, they would not have a chance, which would not be fair and just, and everyone says their God is fair and just. It just does not add up, does it?

All the major religions have old sacred books, ancient traditions and glorious war filled histories. There is no way to say one is more legitimate than another.
