Explaining the Rise of Religious Fundamentalism

In almost all of the planet’s major organized religions, there is a strong movement towards a return to religious fundamentalism and a focus on “worn out dogma.”  Two new books explain the basic reasons why growing intolerance and even violence have gripped the hard core faithful.  WAKING GOD BOOK I: Let the Journey Begin and The Sacred Rota expose, in the guise of novels, what has gone terribly wrong with religion.

With the stage set in Book I concerning religious domination of human thought, THE SACRED ROTA opens doors that many would prefer stay closed.  Continuing with the fast paced action of Book I, humanity is beset with growing problems reminiscent of the ancient Biblical plagues.  The battle between the Archangel Michael and Mantrella (a.k.a. Lucifer) intensifies as conception of the Old Testament’s Adam becomes a certainty.  The rise to power of the UN’s David Dajjal, a puppet of Michael’s, sets the stage for world domination by the Bilderberg Group.  New information is revealed about the Tarot Code, the blueprint for man’s future spiritual and physical evolution, and the role of the church’s Sacred Rota in the epic conspiracy to keep humanity in ignorance and ancient institutions in power.  Will the hidden god seed in our DNA be activated with Adam’s birth or will secret powers maintain their domination of our destiny?

New York Times bestselling author, Piers Anthony says, “I have read Waking God II. There are nice action sequences, and nice theological discussions… I do find the novel intriguing, especially in its boldness of philosophy… I am not aware of anyone else doing this type of thing, though I haven't read The Da Vinci Code, which may be in a similar ballpark.”

Both novels are published by Literary Road Press and are available on Amazon.com.
