A young man struggles to reconcile God, faith, and sex as he stumbles toward finding himself in this "brave and irreverent" (Details) memoir. Since childhood, David Schickler has been torn between his intense desire to become a Catholic priest and his equally fervent desire for the company of women. Things don't get any clearer for Schickler at college, where he initiates serious conversations about becoming a Jesuit just as he enters a passionate relationship with a vivacious, agnostic young woman. Setting out on a journey to understand the balance between a life of faith and life in the real world, Schickler comes to terms with this dichotomy and learns that the answers he seeks aren't clear-cut--no matter how long he treads the dark path. Candid and funny, lyrical and blunt, The Dark Path is an evocative portrayal of one man's struggle with faith and women . . . both of which he tries to love with bold, bracing honesty.

A Dark Path to Freedom tells one of the most exciting life stories of the twentieth century. Born on the eve of the Russian Revolution, Ruzi Nazar was charming, brilliant and passionately committed to Central Asia's liberation from Soviet rule. He was a Red Army officer during World War II, then a fugitive in postwar Germany's underworld, and finally emigrated to the US, mixing with the powerful and famous and rising high in the CIA. He became a US diplomat in Ankara and Bonn, and an undercover agent in Iran. Nazar's foresight was as impressive as his career. He predicted that Communism would collapse from within, briefing Reagan before the Gorbachev talks. A moderate Muslim, his warnings about Islamist radicalism fell on deaf ears. This remarkable biography casts unique light on the lives of those caught up in World War II and the Cold War, and the independence struggles of nationalities oppressed by Communism. -- Inside jacket flap.

THE DARK PATH is considered Isaac Weishaupt's magnum opus; a result of many years delving into the recesses of occult dogma. Using cited references to occult literature from the likes of Aleister Crowley, Helena Blavatsky, Kenneth Grant, Jack Parsons and Alice Bailey; Isaac provides a fundamental exploration of the occult belief system and alternate version of history.Utilizing familiar examples from pop culture, film, music, and television; Isaac proves the "Illuminati" agenda to steer humanity down a path of Luciferianism by inserting symbolism that speaks to, and manipulates, our subconscious minds. Demonstrations of occult symbols, predictive programming, and ritual magick concepts will be evident as the reader sees the connections made between Disney, The Beatles, Star Wars, Rihanna, Led Zeppelin, Jay-Z, Katy Perry, HBO's Westworld, Harry Potter, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the Alien films, Batman, Ancient Aliens, comic book super heroes, and many more!This work carves out a distinction between witches, satanists, magicians, occultists and the New Age, while proving the connected desires to usher in Crowley's Aeon of Horus as the New World Order. Using concepts from Gnosticism, Freemasonry, Alchemy, Kabbalah, and ceremonial magick; Isaac explains Hermetic axioms such as "As above, so below" from which many occultists subscribe to mental emanations that can be used to create reality.They are all part of the Evolution of Consciousness that is being used to push mankind down the path of obliteration through transhumanism, which promises the alchemical pursuit of immortality. NASA, Adolf Hitler's Nazis, and Ancient Alien theorists are using Darwin's theory of evolution to assert the superiority of alien life forms. A coordinated effort of science-fiction beliefs is being conducted to put us in direct contact with these demonic deceptions.The unsuspecting masses will be shocked to find out the "Illuminati" savior of Lucifer and his desire to put us into the transhuman digital matrix; ultimately destroying God's creation by "evolving" us into the next entity: a globally connected digital form of consciousness.Isaac shares personal tales of Faustian bargains as well as experiences with radio shows that helped confirm his world view of the frequency battle for our souls; and this book is a testament to those observations."The religion of the ancients is the religion of the future." -Helena BlavatskyWebsite publisher of IlluminatiWatcher.com and top 5% Amazon author; Isaac Weishaupt has been on the leading edge of conspiracy theories surrounding the elusive "Illuminati" and its infiltration of the entertainment industry. Using examples of familiar pop culture and works of entertainment, Isaac has been speaking and writing about the occult from a unique perspective that seeks to understand the big agenda while helping others along the way.Isaac has been a featured guest on Dave Navarro's "Dark Matter Radio," BLACKOUT Radio, Richard C. Hoagland's "Other Side of Midnight", SIRIUS/XM's The All Out Show, The HigherSide Chats, Freeman Fly's "The Free Zone", Mark Devlin's "Good Vibrations", VICE, COMPLEX Magazine, and many more radio shows and podcasts.

"Darkheart: a faded neutron star surrounded by dead planets. But there is life on one of these icy rocks -- the last enclave of the Earth Empire, frozen in the image of another time. As the rest of the galaxy enjoys the fruits of the fledgling Federation, these isolated Imperials, bound to obey a forgotten ideal, harbour a dark obsession. The Doctor, Jamie and Victoria arrive to find that the Federation has at last come to reintegrate this lost colony, whether they like it or not. But all is not well in the Federation camp: relations and allegiances are changing. The fierce Veltrochni -- angered by the murder of their kinsmen -- have an entirely different agenda. And someone else is manipulating the mission for his own mysterious reasons -- another time traveler, a suave and assured master of his work. The Doctor must uncover the terrible secret which brought the Empire to this desolate sector, and find the source of the strange power maintaining their society. But can a Time Lord, facing the ultimate temptation, control his own desire? This adventure takes place between the television stories The Web of Fear and Fury from the Deep, and after the Missing Adventure Twilight of the Gods."--Page 4 of cover.
