Biblical Events Told Truthfully
Biblical Events Told Truthfully and with Compelling Critical Commentary – Not the Shammed Trash of the Testaments discusses the difference between fact and fiction in the Bible, between truth and fabrication.
The heart of this controversial yet incisive book explores the absurd discrepancies between reality and the Testaments of the Bible.
The author was inspired to write this book by “the plethora of willfully ignorant Christians who merely read the Bible but do no thinking about it. They go from word to word without questioning anything.
Their reasoning, or lack of it, is that whatever is in the Bible is true because whatever in the Bible is true: the logic of an imbecile. For example, they never ask who is narrating Genesis
About Significant Secular and Sacred Matters in America
The text in Significant Secular and Sacred Matters in America contains nineteen commentaries, nine on secular matters and ten on sacred matters.
The secular materials focus on various matters in American society, including the reprehensible treatment of war veterans, racism by celebrities, Congress’ usurpation of citizens’ rights, and other issues.
The sacred matters focus on religious privilege, the terrorism inherent in Christianity, the enigmatic genesis of Jesus, the evil of Yahweh, and more.
An American citizen, military veteran, and secular humanist (which benighted people confuse with “atheist”) wrote all the commentaries. His intent was to edify fellow citizens, who perhaps never thought of matters the way the author does, due to social indoctrination, indifference, and willful ignorance.
Unsolicited Discourses by an Atheist for the Edification of Citizens
This book is an anthology of discourses on religionand is comprised of 10 discussions. Some are aimed at specific church audiences such as Baptists. Some were delivered at public open forums.
All are aimed at getting religionists to consider new ways of looking at various aspects of their religion, including principles, practices, and beliefs they likely never before considered, probably because of willful ignorance.
Was Yahweh not a despicable fornicating rapist, and was not Jesus a bastard by definition?
Above all, Unsolicited Discourses by an Atheist is certainly eye opening.
The Tragic History of Delaney Walker’s Struggles with the Imp of Dire Straits
Once upon a time, Delaney Walker’s life was filledwith warmth and love and family and friends, expectations and desires and happiness. Then a disastrous lifelessness set in. Living became painful to him, too painful to endure until the end of time.
Delaney, retired after teaching for over thirty years at university level, had become filled with despair and was trying to understand why.
On the morning of February 25, 2004, Delaney was afflicted with enough serious mental derangement to warrant a psychiatrist’s enrolling him into what Delaney facetiously came to call “The Depressing Society of the Deeply Depressed.”
Unlike many societies, this one has no proud members.
It is a very large community containing millions of associates and is quite exclusive, because nobody – absolutely nobody – gets in without proper credentials.

Hastings-Duffield’s controversial book provides a miscellany of insightful observations and commentaries about poor Mary and her rape by a fornicating God; about the disingenuous Jesus, her bastard son; and about the know-it-all Paul, self-appointed designer of Christianity and an unconscionable misogynist.
