Once upon a time there was a matriarchal society that stretched from Ireland to India. It worshipped the Goddess, the female spirit or principle immanent in the Earth. This society fostered love, peace, and ecological conscientiousness. It rejected economic exploitation, social hierarchy, and violence of all sorts. But then along came some marauding Indo-Europeans and Hebraic Semites. They overwhelmed the Goddess culture and exterminated or submerged any traces of its fundamental beliefs or ritual practices.

For many years, Americans have enjoyed basic freedoms like freedom of speech... freedom to choose how they spend their money... and freedom to travel without restriction.

"God's Miracle Dust" Because It's The Single Greatest Off-The-Grid Story Ever Told!We live in a time when it's impossible to escape dangerous chemicals.

The Single Best "Just In Case" Place In The WorldFor many years now, there has been much talk that the ancient Mayans predicted the end of the world with their Long Count calendar. It has even been refined down to a specific date when humanity is supposed to cease to exist… December 21, 2012 This doomsday message has become quite popular. So much so, the subject has spawned hundreds of thousands of websites and blogs, several mainstream books… and at least a couple of movies… including… a major motion picture by Mel Gibson titled, Apocalypto. The supposed cause (or causes) of this wanton, wholesale destruction ranges from a Planet “X” near flyby… to a “killer” solar flare… to geomagnetic reversal… to… a half-dozen (or more) other things.
