“What we need is a book of knowledge written so well as to constitute literature in its own right. Something for anyone interested in the state of the Earth and of us - a manual for living well and for survival. The quality of its writing must be such that it would serve for pleasure, for devotional reading, as a source of facts and even as a primary school text. It would range from simple things such as how to light a fire, to our place in the solar system and the universe. It would be a primer of philosophy and science - it would provide a top-down look at the Earth and us. It would explain the natural selection of all living things, and give the key facts of medicine, including the ciculation of the blood, the role of the organs. The discovery that bacteria and viruses caused infectious diseases is relatively recent; imagine the consequences if such knowledge was lost. In its time the Bible set the constraints for behaviour and for health. WE need a new book like the Bible that would serve in the same way but acknowledge science. It would explain properties like temperature, the meaning of their scales of measurement and how to measure them. It would list the periodic table of the elements. It would give an account of the air, the rocks, and the oceans. It would give schoolchildren of today a proper understanding of our civilization and of the planet it occupies. It would inform them at an age when their minds were most receptive and give them facts they would remember for a lifetime. It would also be the survival manual for our successors. A book that was readily available should disaster happen. It would help bring science back as part of our culture and be an inheritance. Whatever else may be wrong with science, it still provides the best explanation we have of the material world.”

“The book before you represents my current #mostright marker regarding religion and spirituality, especially the Judeo-Christian tradition. It is written primarily for the author himself. If it helps others on their spiritual journey, so much the better.”

“We are currently close to transitioning out of the 2,160 -year Piscean Age into the Age of Aquarius. Pisces has the simplified energy of "I believe," which created 2,160 years of believing. Aquarius is the age of "insight and knowledge." It is an age of increased human wisdom, awareness, and expanding consciousness. This transition into Aquarius coincides with the rising of the information age.”

“The message that Giordano Bruno presented was directed to the clergy, who had a personal stake not to change. The message of Aquarius Rising is not directed to the priestly caste, for they will not read these words anyway. They are for the weary spiritual traveler who has felt duped all these years but cannot quite put their finger on how the magic trick was done.”

“As we cast our gaze back to the foundations of modern religious faiths, we should consider the times in which they developed. Recall that the printing press was invented in 1436. The literacy rate was likely minuscule and limited to the religious clergy or the wealthy. Considering a historical perspective, literacy levels for the world population have risen drastically in the last couple of centuries. While only 12% of the people in the world could read and write in 1820, today, the share has reversed: only 12% of the world population, in 2020, remained illiterate.”

“Imagine yourself in 1820. How is leadership to communicate with a poor, uneducated population who cannot read nor write and with thus likely limited ability to reason? Now imagine yourself in the year the printing press was invented, 1436. You have the same issues, only much worse.”
