  WHEN GOD WAS REAL-The Case Against Belief

This book is about perspective; what we see and what we don't; how we see and why we won't. You and I can stand back to back and understand that what you and I describe to each other are simply different views rather than being right or wrong. But when it comes to our thoughts, we have no problem branding each other's perspectives as wrongheaded. We may decide to agree to disagree, yet all the while I know I am right while you are obviously wrong. Soon our community divides along relatively natural points of view, or more accurately, we divide in accord with different ways to view. Sometimes there is war. We fight over color lines, gender lines, border lines, party lines, lines of thought, guidelines for our courts, congress, presidency, religion, civil liberties. But where are these lines? Why these lines? Rather than your average book about where to draw the line, this bold book is about how to read between the lines and how to look far beyond the lines.
This book crosses the line!

The Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching -A Visual Interpretation
The lao Tzu Tao Te Ching A new translation (2014) of the Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching (Laozi, Daode Jing).
A VISUAL INTERPRETATION. A book to illustrate the depth, subtlety and richness of the language and philosophy of realism by explaining the visuals provided by key Chinese characters and the pictograms that precede them. Even if a translation appears fairly straightforward, all interpretation is subjective; it must be. Just as every translator interprets, every reader brings his or her abilities to understanding (interpreting) what they read. So it is, will be, and always has been, you will interpret what I have interpreted. Valuing this tendency rather than fighting that which is natural, I intend to offer up ways of seeing the text: Together we will re-view the text through its images rather than hearing only the words as traditionally translated.

The Occidental Tourist - A Facebook Debate about Race, Culture, and Values
Travel with The Occidental Tourist

This book is current yet timeless. My sister and I, mainly, discuss race, culture, politics and values. What could at times be considered arcane or futile debate is bracketed by the fact that Donald Trump's run for president of the United States has attracted so many ardent supporters; one such being my sister Sharon. Although we only mention Donald Trump a couple of times within our yearlong debate, the same attitudes that radiate from his persona cause certain people and their issues to gravitate to his campaign. Alongside this push and pull we seem to be witnessing the disintegration of at least one political party while finding concern about what may rise from these ashes.

The Oxbow Revelation
Visit The Oxbow Revelation.com





Twenty five days in a life.
It's 1975 and high school student, Paul Roberts has recently left his church. He struggles to find a morality based upon something more than common belief or personal opinion. Then he becomes engaged in a series of conversations with a co-worker. Soon they have embarked upon a journey that neither had imagined possible.






"...The Oxbow Revelation reads like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance crossed with East of Eden, with shades of American Graffiti as its backdrop." "... A serious, mysterious and sometimes sexy book about finding morality."
