Publisher's Synopsis
Imagine that your mother ran away to join a religious cult when you were seven, taking you with her. She did not tell your father where she went, but he found you, and fought to reunite the family. He failed, and their marriage collapsed when he rejected the cult and she refused to change her beliefs. "Laughing At The Devil" contains the true story of one such childhood. It also contains much more. In these pages you will see the answers that child found during his thirty-year quest to understand how religion obtained the power to destroy families. That journey helped him blend his intuitions and intellect, and heal his childhood wounds. His search also revealed that western religion is based upon the ancient science of astronomy, and, amazingly, that the biblical story of Samson is founded upon astronomical observations made over four thousand years ago. It is hoped that these discoveries help all of us integrate religion and science in a way that heals the wounds caused by their past alienation.
