Liberals oppose this demand-The Unionist case: the principles of the present bill have never been submitted to the country-Considerations supporting this view -Three different principles are covered by the phrase " Home Rule "-General considerations in favour of an election-The Liberal argument: an Election would be contrary to the principles of the Parliament Act-The Unionist answer to this-Practical necessity that an election, if held at all, must be held before Parliament meets. The Liberal view: in neither case would the situation be relieved of all its dangers-To some extent this opinion is unsound-A decisive result either way must have a moderating influence-One of Ulster's main grievances would be removed-Nationalists could not escape the moral effect-The principle of Home Rule is popular in Ireland, but not the present bill.

A Dweller on Two Planets by Phylos. This influential book was written in the 1890s and saw publication in 1905 six years after the death of the author (Frederick S. Oliver, who claimed he used automatic writing to channel the spirit of Phylos, a man from Atlantis whose body was in a temple on Mount Shasta, but whose spirit was on Venus). As out-there as that sounds to normal people (and that's not even a complete rendering of the situation), this book heavily influenced a great deal of what people believe about Atlantis these days. The views on Karma and Reincarnation have also been influential. As far as predictions, the author nailed television and atomic telescopes. The text can be dense, but the descriptions of daily life in Atlantis from the social mores to the religion is fascinating. As far as New Age and Occult libraries are concerned, if you don't own a copy of this book, your library is incomplete.
