About this ebook

“Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.” John 8:14. The only man to have walked the earth and confidently claimed to know where he came from and no one offered to challenge him on the claim is Jesus!
Why are we here anyway? Everything that we are doing is outright vain! The Atlantis syndrome seems to be the driver of all that we do. Every human is striving to be above the next human. We are not content or satisfied with what we have, we want more! However, the gravity of the earth is holding us fast down on the ground. We fly but have to come down to the ground.
We love the earth and in the same measure, hate it. We know that the earth is the mother that is giving us life, but our subconscious reminds us that we do not belong here. The earth gives us just enough to sustain us for awhile. For those who believe in a life eternal in heaven, the poser comes, ‘so what shall you be doing eternally in heaven?’ The answers come in fast and furious with varied dreams; ‘We shall be worshipping, or we shall be enjoying ourselves!’
Whatever the case, we are not here by accident; we were placed here for a purpose. That purpose is the greatest mystery. If we can truly discover why we were put on earth, then we can be able to deal with the rest of issues by charting a course towards the desired purpose of the creator.
God is an alien to this earth and perhaps we all are. However, John the Divine says in Revelation that he saw a New Earth and a New Heaven after the purging of the old ones. Looks like the place of man is earth actually, not Mars, Jupiter or heaven.
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.” Rev. 21:1
Again, the intrigue, Jesus says that he will come and take those who trust and believe in him to where he is and this creates a new dimension to the whole story.
“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” John. 14:1-3

Will Anthony, Jr

Will Anthony Jr. is currently the Chairman of the Uasin Gishu County Land Control Board which caters for over one million people. Before this stint, he worked in other capacities with the National government. He has also been lecturer in three religious institutions, a service to the youth to gather knowledge from the aging population. In his life time, Will Anthony Jr. says he has met a lot of people and can unflinchingly say that he loved most of them. Why most of them? Well, it is a tall order to love everyone you meet! Will Anthony Jr. has written several e-books touching on diverse subjects that relate to society. The books extensively cover human social and economic practices and this is so because expertise in one field in Africa can become a drudgery according to his practical view. His perception is that if you were born in Africa and the continent is your aboriginal home, you are likely to have English as your second language (ESL). Sometimes it could even be a third language. For him, he had to learn his mother tongue then learn both English and Swahili simultaneously. He went to his pre-primary bare foot, later he joined the local primary school 5 Km away and had to trek barefoot again not because his parents could not buy him shoes but because cobblers were a rare find. That journey was a daily toil of 10 Km, 5 days in a week or ~270 days yearly for 7 years. With a smirk he says that when you achieve a PhD in Africa, then You have done Plenty of hard Digging (PhD) or you have a Permanent head Damage (PhD) and you might end up in a ditch because your IQ cannot contain the booze like the local fellas!"Why did the English colonize Africa?" To keep the African languages in Czech (check), and he says that one must forgive this pun. But besides the pun, English has broken both social and economic barriers of the once "dark continent" whose forefathers slaved the white farms and firms to lace the pockets of their Lords.A PhD holder in Africa will still practice other 'trades' though they maybe 'very' learned because poverty is shameless, one has to draw bounds through plenty of smart work or else, it will be a shame to steal so as to maintain class.He published a book in 1992, but the publisher coned him , he took her to court and the case aged in judicial corridors for 12 years. He then made a decision to abandon the matter and to forget about writing books. However, Self publishing made him to change that decision. More than anything, He salutes Smashwords Inc. for the platform.In retrospect, He recalls a Dr. Alfred Sam, a friend of his from North America who was also a dean of studies in a local university, exposing his white ass in the university's auditorium to catch attention. The noise ceased as students and lecturers turned to look at the grown-up man on the podium doing the abominable. Well, the good Dr. in anthropology then simply pulled up his trousers buckled the belt and said, "Thank You, now I have your attention..."For the sake of simplicity, without much display of academia, Will Anthony Jr. is a writer in the global village market . For this, he Salutes all his readers and all lovers of written work. In a word of caution, he says that men and women alike must bear. In reference, there is an Ibo saying that every market place has it's mad people who will attempt to mar the business of the seemingly sane people. On the other hand, the English say everyone is mad, it's only the degree madness that is at variance. Salutes most profoundly!

    INTRODUCTION

    "In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." Gen. 1: 1-3

    Please read with a pinch of salt, it will help you not to gape or go agog!

    We are humans and we shall talk of a beginning as long as we are on earth until when we come to appreciate that our genes have travelled through space and time, perhaps as software, to be embedded in these bodies we portray as ours for a time. Yes, we call them our bodies because when the human body collapses, we refer to the corpses as ‘their bodies,’ a sense of useless ownership.

    Besides the other animals on the planet, the human genetic structure is so baffling, yet this maybe not for long as the human mind continues to unravel the mysteries that make us and create our environs.

    In the beginning, the universes were created by God! God in my description is a superior being whose mind and workings we cannot fathom, beyond the existence of that very being is a vast past, present and future all rolled into one. Just as a robot created by us cannot fully understand our mind or workings so is the relationship of man to God. We call our robots Artificial Intelligence (AI) but babies born of men and women are considered to have Inartificial Intelligence (II).

    Considering that humans are worshippers of some sort, we can safely approach Atheism as a form of religion in which adherents worship themselves as superiors
