A Lie Told Often Enough Becomes The Truth

Madman, tyrant, animal—history has given Adolf Hitler many names. In Mein Kampf (My Struggle), often called the Nazi bible, Hitler describes his life, frustrations, ideals, and dreams. Born to an impoverished couple in a small town in Austria, the young Adolf grew up with the fervent desire to become a painter. The death of his parents and outright rejection from art schools in Vienna forced him into underpaid work as a laborer. During the First World War, Hitler served in the infantry and was decorated for bravery. After the war, he became actively involved with socialist political groups and quickly rose to power, establishing himself as Chairman of the National Socialist German Worker's party. In 1924, Hitler led a coalition of nationalist groups in a bid to overthrow the Bavarian government in Munich. The infamous Munich "Beer-hall putsch" was unsuccessful, and Hitler was arrested. During the nine months he was in prison, an embittered and frustrated Hitler dictated a personal manifesto to his loyal follower Rudolph Hess. He vented his sentiments against communism and the Jewish people in this document, which was to become Mein Kampf, the controversial book that is seen as the blue-print for Hitler's political and military campaign. In Mein Kampf, Hitler describes his strategy for rebuilding Germany and conquering Europe. It is a glimpse into the mind of a man who destabilized world peace and pursued the genocide now known as the Holocaust.

What is the most destructive weapon of all time? Is it a stick? A rock... Sword... Gun... Atomic Bomb? Each of these is responsible for their fair share of pain and suffering, but none have come close to the amount of destruction caused by one other weapon. This weapon does not look like other weapons and it appears far less threatening. Most of the time, its work goes unnoticed by its victims. One minute, it can be seen in a room full of military advisors, and the next it can be in the hands of a man sitting on a park bench. It can be waved overhead by an angry mob, and it can be beside a mother as she feeds her baby. When an enemy wants to conquer a group of people, his or her first tactic is not always physical harm. Their first and often most successful tactic is to change people's minds. After all, why should an enemy try to kill a group of people when he or she can enslave them instead? Propaganda is the most destructive weapon of all time. The art of deceiving the masses has been responsible for more pain and suffering than anyone can calculate. All a strategic enemy has to do is articulate his or her deception in a convincing way, then repeat it so often that the people begin to embrace it. In other words, "A lie told often enough becomes the truth." What makes propaganda so powerful is that people do not know they are under attack until it is too late. In this way, it can be comparable to rat poison. Rat poison is made up of 95 percent corn, and 5 percent poison. When an unsuspecting rodent comes upon it, he thinks it is safe to eat, as the majority of rat poison smells like food and tastes like food. However, it is that 5 percent that will kill him. Likewise, the most effective lie is the one wrapped in truth.In many countries, Muslims are instructed to study and memorize the Qur'an from the time they are toddlers. This narrative is repeated so often that it creates a stronghold in the mind and the children eventually learn to accept the narrative as "truth." A bias sets in that prohibits these individuals from looking at other views objectively. For centuries, Islamic scholars have been taking advantage of whole nations with this method of indoctrination. These practices seem to be especially effective in areas where education is limited. This is an unfortunate dilemma, especially in light of the many errors found in the Islamic writings. The goal of this book is to expose the falsehoods and manipulations found within Islam. This will be accomplished by doing a comparative study of the Qur'an, Hadith, the Bible, and historical evidence. This material, when examined unbiasedly, provides convincing evidence that the Qur'an is not preserved, historically accurate, or a direct message from God. It is the hope of the author that the reader will take the time to test and approve this material, not with an indoctrinated and biased perspective, but with equal scales and sound scholarship.

President Donald J. Trump lays out his professional and personal worldview in this classic work—a firsthand account of the rise of America’s foremost deal-maker. “I like thinking big. I always have. To me it’s very simple: If you’re going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big.”—Donald J. Trump Here is Trump in action—how he runs his organization and how he runs his life—as he meets the people he needs to meet, chats with family and friends, clashes with enemies, and challenges conventional thinking. But even a maverick plays by rules, and Trump has formulated time-tested guidelines for success. He isolates the common elements in his greatest accomplishments; he shatters myths; he names names, spells out the zeros, and fully reveals the deal-maker’s art. And throughout, Trump talks—really talks—about how he does it. Trump: The Art of the Deal is an unguarded look at the mind of a brilliant entrepreneur—the ultimate read for anyone interested in the man behind the spotlight. Praise for Trump: The Art of the Deal “Trump makes one believe for a moment in the American dream again.”—The New York Times “Donald Trump is a deal maker. He is a deal maker the way lions are carnivores and water is wet.”—Chicago Tribune “Fascinating . . . wholly absorbing . . . conveys Trump’s larger-than-life demeanor so vibrantly that the reader’s attention is instantly and fully claimed.”—Boston Herald “A chatty, generous, chutzpa-filled autobiography.”—New York Post

All around the world, Latter Day Saint missionaries go door-to-door spreading the teaching of Joseph Smith. Unfortunately, instead of being transparent about the religion's beliefs and practices, missionaries use language that sounds Biblical so their audience is prone to accept the message. These missionaries often say things like:"Hi, I am Elder Sam from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We believe in the King James Bible. We believe Jesus is God's son. We believe he came and died for our sins so that we can have eternal life with our Heavenly Father."The listener believes the message is safe because it sounds like traditional Christianity. The missionaries are very careful to keep their religion's "deeper truths" hidden from the listener until he or she is more immersed in the community.The goal of this book is to highlight the differences between Biblical Christianity and the teaching of Joseph Smith. It shines light on both his heresies and how he continues to deceive the Latter Day Saints. This will be accomplished by doing a comparative study of the Bible, the Book of Mormon (both the 1830 version and the updated version), other Latter Day Saint texts, and historical evidence. This material provides overwhelming evidence Joseph Smith was not a prophet of God and that many of his messages were simply not true.

A Grief Observed is a collection of Lewis's reflections on the experience of bereavement following the death of his wife, Joy Davidman, in 1960. The book was first published under the pseudonym N.W. Clerk as Lewis wished to avoid identification as the author. Though republished in 1963 after his death under his own name, the text still refers to his wife as "H" (her first name, which she rarely used, was Helen). The book is compiled from the four notebooks which Lewis used to vent and explore his grief. He illustrates the everyday trials of his life without Joy and explores fundamental questions of faith and theodicy. Lewis's step-son (Joy's son) Douglas Gresham points out in his 1994 introduction that the indefinite article 'a' in the title makes it clear that Lewis's grief is not the quintessential grief experience at the loss of a loved one, but one individual's perspective among countless others. The book helped inspire a 1985 television movie Shadowlands, as well as a 1993 film of the same name. Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was a British novelist, poet, academic, medievalist, lay theologian and Christian apologist. He is best known for his fictional work, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy, and for his non-fiction Christian apologetics, such as Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain.
