A new approach
Hi. I think he has a very positive message of faith, joy, hope, using science, and that the real message of faith may have a darker side to it.
Life could be all roses and candy or it could be hard work and repeated failure. Judging by my own experience, I wonder if the day will come when people will want justice for others because it is the right thing rather than due to our having a system at play.
What will we do when that system doesn't provide for us or when we grow beyond that system? Take me for instance. I'm trying to raise a volunteer "army" of supporters for the publication of my new theory of evolution. I'm also trying to find that needle in the haystack where someone will find themselves to be the straw that broke the camel's back and insist that this is their chosen purpose in life - to see me succeed.
If people were just willing to take a chance and go out on a limb.
Stimulating concepts have been "break out" before. Why not find a new SHOCKING approach to life that puts Darwin back in the background? We can't live in the past. Things are always becoming outdated. Moving forward might be fun if we can ward off danger from other nations who don't particularly find themselves in the position that the United States is in.
If we begin to think of ourselves as special in this vast scheme of things, jealousy and other not so pleasant human traits may try to destroy what we have - unless we show the rest of the people on earth that we mean to help them with our "specialness." Why not convince the rest of the people who are kind of stuck in their 5th race mentalities that we mean to meet the girasas and use them to promote the 6th race growth across the globe, in small segments of the population at first and then with the intent to cover the globe?
It's going to take 400,000 years before the 6th race begins and 10 million years after that for the 6th race to exist and we still won't be off this earth until the 7th race is completed in another 6 million years. (Rough estimates at best with so little help from co-workers.)
I'm hoping Michael Dowd will come and visit as I took the liberty of inviting him to this discussion.
Best wishes,

Let's be real
I'm glad you think of me as rational (not using lunacy) and Archer as capable of carrying on this discussion with all types of people. I know that I am different and hence I may take a certain amount of time introducing myself before corresponding, but it is only an attempt to let the other writers know where I am coming from.
I read the table of contents and some of the blog on the website for the book and the word kingdom isn't in the table of contents once.
