The motive of all customary religions is the same: to jointly serve the will of the wicked gods of the world. They also have one clear and simple message for enlightened humankind: to return to the Eden-like life of total spiritual blindness and shamelessness, presented in various ways by the various religious sects. The brave achievements of Adam and Eve in Eden-receiving the divine fruit of the knowledge of good and evil for humankind-still pose great worries for Yahweh/Allah and the other sneaky gods of the world. In retaliation, the gods try to reverse humankind's spiritual gains through the devious activities of human religion. Religion of the Rustic Gods Vs the Gospel Truth: Religion without Reason, Book 5 examines the teachings of the various major religions of the world. Uche E. Chuku asserts that in respect to humankind's quest for true spiritual salvation, Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Shinto, and all other religions are simply religions for nothing. What they espouse as mystical "awakening" is blindness to the basic facts of this life. Chuku discusses how the founders of all the customary religions of the world have become the "thieves and robbers" of human souls, and why seeking to unite with the gods of the world is seeking to share in their eternal spiritual damnation.

This volume is a history of the Japanese drive for the conquest of Greater East Asia. It includes an account of the Malayan campaign and the Fall of Singapore, followed by an outline of the dominant features of the campaign in S E Asia and the Pacific and ending with the attack on Japan and the unconditional surrender. As a prisoner in Tokyo, the author was able to observe the reactions of the people and the government to the bombing of Japan, and by revealing their overwhelming defeat, to dispose of the fiction that surrender was brought about by two atomic bombs. The outstanding value of the work is its analysis of the fundamental problems of Japan.
