The Quantum God is the story of a man's attempt to make sense of the world and universe around him. Being neurodivergent he is blessed with the skills to help him in his quest but some deficiencies that make it harder. A former teacher describes him as a big, powerful bird who is carrying a heavy weight and sometimes his wings overcome the weight and at other times the weight dominates the wings.He makes a major life decision at the age of 19 that has consequences that are far-reaching. A major theme of the Quantum God is how a minor change can completely change not just the life of a single person but the whole of humanity. This is known by some people as the "butterfly" effect. That particular theme is based on the concept of my own life where I made the opposite decision that Paul did and I speculate on what might have happened if I had chosen otherwise.Paul's life, even after this major event has many parallels to my own. Like me, Paul is a writer. Like me, he is also very curious about how the universe works and it is a major life goal for him to "crack it". By a stroke of luck (or is it merely a random factor that has a fortunate outcome?), Paul has help from a paranormal source, unlike myself. Naturally, luck, karma and the possible influence of some sort of god are major themes. Paul's concept of the Quantum God is a god who is everywhere and everywhen and operates at the minute sub-atomic level. He also questions the difference between people who are merely biologically human and those who are human in a spiritual sense.Paul is made aware how different possible futures appear and makes major life decisions to pursue the paths he needs to follow. He discovers that he plays a very small but vital role in a project that ultimately saves the human race, but for how much longer?Parental Guidance: This book contains sexual content and bad language.

Arminianism V. Hyper-Calvinism: Being Three Letters, From Philip Pugh, To Samuel Cozens (1860) is a book that explores the theological debate between Arminianism and Hyper-Calvinism. The book is comprised of three letters written by Philip Pugh to Samuel Cozens in 1860. In these letters, Pugh presents his arguments against the Hyper-Calvinist doctrine, which he believes is too extreme in its view of predestination and election. He also defends the Arminian position, which emphasizes human free will and the possibility of salvation for all. The book provides a valuable insight into the theological debates of the 19th century and sheds light on the differences between Arminianism and Hyper-Calvinism. It is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian theology and the ongoing debate between these two theological positions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Although astronomical CCD cameras can be very costly, digital cameras - the kind you use on holiday - on the other hand, are relatively inexpensive.

Amateur astronomers have to start somewhere and this book explains how to get the best from entry-level equipment. It goes on to explain how to select equipment that is at the 'next level', and describes how to use more advanced telescopes and accessories.

Observing the Messier Objects with a Small Telescope contains descriptions and photographs of the 103 Messier objects, with instructions on how to find them without a computerized telescope or even setting circles.

For this ground-breaking book, Philip Pugh has assembled a team of contributors who show just how much solar observation work can be accomplished with Coronado telescopes, and explain how to get the best from these marvelous instruments.
