Description

The author's introductory quote sets the stage for his book: "I'm sure the universe is full of intelligent life. It's just been too intelligent to come here."― Arthur C. Clark. This book is a collection of critical and sometimes witty essays on race, religion, politics, slavery, wars and fools. The author begins by laying bare the idiotic arguments about the color and sex of God. From there he tackles the issue of racism, including why it is racist to call Obama black when he is half white. Another chapter is devoted to the circus called politics. Still others argue we are enslaved by the income tax, property tax and the Federal Reserve. And the final and longest chapter exposes the truth behind this country's wars and the millions of lives needlessly lost.
