The Great Bamboozle

A gross distortion of reality has permeated our lives and has since the beginning of our social existence. We have lived in a state of perpetual bamboozlement. We learn to see categorical wholes and other fictions rather than what is there before our eyes. Simple, irrefutable truths presented in this book debunk the nonsense we have created.

Using ideas drawn from physics, psychology, history (personal and world), and philosophy, The Great Bamboozle argues that the real world isn't about one truth, one nation, one God, or special creations. Instead, the simple truth lies in diversity. Reality is that no two things in the universe are the same, and the corollary that everything is in a constant state of flux. Accepting these simple facts can radically alter our worldview. This study opens new ways of thinking about the individual, power, equal rights, and freedom, making the possibility of world peace clearer.

A peaceful and exciting future for all can be glimpsed if we can accept that each person is different, and allow each more freedom to choose their own path and not suffer from the intense programming using the nonsense that has existed. Love, viewed from this vantage point, occurs when two can fully accept and respect each other's differences. Humans must abandon vanity and embrace compassion to achieve the second renaissance in our evolution. Evolution is slow but accepting reality is a big step forward.
