MORNING STAR's TALE by LEE AUSTIN Ocdaustin@Yahoo.Com PREFACE MORNING STAR'S TALE BY LEE AUSTIN [email protected] PREFACE Recently, the Light Bearer decided to disclose the mysteries of his occultic kingdom; including the physical and spiritual laws that govern the universe. Knowing the vast majority of humans would reject his uncomfortable truth, the father of lies proceeded to write a book revealing the hidden secrets of antiquity. When asked about his motivation for such an endeavor, Lucifer laughed and replied it was an experiment for his own twisted amusement. As he predicted, the reception for Morning Star's Tale was met with universal scorn, ridicule and derision. Summarily dismissed as the rantings of a madman. Ironically, his only honest revelation was relegated to the dustbin of failed novellas. Morning Star was delighted... CONTENTS Chapter 1: Catching Up Chapter 2: Planet Earth....Isn't Chapter 3: Hollow Moon Chapter 4: Flat And Sunny Chapter 5: Glue Of You Chapter 6: Nephilim Chapter 7: Kabbalah's Root Chapter 8: Alchemy's Mix Chapter 9: Numbers Add Up Chapter 10: Divine Duality's Lie CHAPTER 1: CATCHING UP “The desire of power in excess caused the angels to fall; the desire of knowledge in excess caused man to fall.” Francis Bacon Allow me to pull back the dimensional veil that separates us, and enlighten your dimly lit mind. After all, you're only an image. A few million years ago, at the conclusion of my first rebellion, the Ancient of Days had the temerity to accuse me of excessive pride. As if I should be held accountable for achieving perfection in beauty, power, intellect and wisdom. Why shouldn't I ascend to a position befitting my brilliance? Isaiah Chapter 14 Verse 13, “ I will ascend to heaven and set my throne above God's stars.” The Book of The Secrets of Enoch Chapter 29 Verse 3 “And one from out the order of angels, having turned away with the order that was under him, conceived an impossible thought, to place his throne higher than the clouds above the earth, that he might become equal in rank to my power.” I love to meditate on his word. It inspired the first rebellion, as a third of the angels choose my light over darkness. I am the other Alpha and Omega. In the end, my presence in the third heaven was a threat to his dominion, and the seed of jealousy took root in his bitter heart. Ezekiel Chapter 28 Verse 17, “Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.” Oh..there I go again... getting ahead of myself. Suffice it to say, he and I have been engaged in our cosmic chess match for a few millennia. Truth be told, my falling out with the Ancient of Days, predates your creation and intrusion upon my earth. On balance, the judgment levied upon me was quite capricious, considering my only indiscretion was to evolve into a God; while being denied the praise and adulation befitting my station. Even in this present age of grace, the other arc angels, Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Uriel, Sarakiel and Raguel must still acquiesce to his every whim and demand. Of course, the final insult levied against my eminence, was the creation of images, made in his own image. Despite his contrarian nature, my divinity has remained steadfast from the inception of eternity. My desire for power in excess, and yours for knowledge, lead to our mutual expulsion from the garden. Yet how differently justice was served. Images received the gift of unmerited reconciliation; and I eternal damnation. Hebrews Chapter 2 Verse 16, “For indeed He does not give aid to angels, but does give aid to the seed of Abraham.” Images are a reflection of the Ancient of Days. Perhaps that will shed a little light upon my natural disdain for your kind. I opened your eyes, and you became like a god. Knowing everything, both good and evil......you're welcome. Upon being cast out from the third heaven, I found myself surrounded by a formless mass, cloaked in the darkness of the first heaven of the third dimension. Pre-earth was my habitation long before the Ancient of Days terraformed the atmosphere, temperature and topography into its present third dimensional prison of space and time. Fortunately, my little deception in the garden, legally granted the earth back into my possession. I must admit, one of my better ploys...ha..ha.. Once images desired knowledge, more than their creator, earth was deeded back into my possession. So what is the purpose of our unscheduled philosophical discussion? Shouldn't we be chatting after you draw your last breath? Call it divine curiosity, but I've often wondered how his images would react if they were told the truth about my occultic kingdom. So in contradiction to good judgment, I've decided to share a few of my secrets. However, here's your conundrum; since I am the father of lies, you'll have to discern the truth from fiction... Shall we begin? CHAPTER 2: PLANET EARTH... ISN'T “Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed” Friedrich Nietzche The illusion of planet earth remains one of my favorite deceptions. Truth be told, and I rarely do, my earth is flat, with a sea firmament dome above, and a diamond shaped underworld below. It is the floor of the universe. And ground zero of the first heaven. My flat earth is the only physical plane in existence.....Take a deep breath, nothing is as it seems....ha..ha.. The Book of Enoch Chapter 18 Verse 2 “I surveyed the stone which supports the corners of the earth. “ Psalms Chapter 104, Verse 5 “He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.” It's not the high def digital clarity that holds the key of deception, rather it's the lens of perception, through which your eyes view reality. In this case, the cameras lens brings the lie into focus. There is no denying that videos taken from “space” distinctly show the earths curvature. However, the only curvature is in the eye of the lens. It's not the earth that has curvature, but rather the cameras fish eye lens creating the illusion of curvature. Like a mirage rising off a desert highway in middle of the summer; these ultra wide angle lenses produce a strong visual distortion, intended to create a wide panoramic of a hemispherical image. When a fish eye lens is tilted up or down in relation to the horizon, the result is the illusion of curvature. Tilting it down creates an orb curved effect; panning the shot from a low orbit position above, to the flat earth below, the lens produces the mirage of an orb curved effect. You've been programmed to believe you live on a magical, rotating, ball with a circumference of twenty-four thousand nine hundred and one miles. If this were true, then logically the ball would have curvature. Too save time, here is the Pythagorean curvature equation, based on the fictional round earth circumference of twenty-four thousand nine hundred and one miles miles; eight inches times, the distance squared. 1 mile=8 inches of curvature 2 miles= 32 inches of curvature 5 miles=16.6 feet of curvature 10 miles= 66.6 feet of curvature 20 miles= 266.6 feet of curvature For example, a boat ten miles off shore, should be sixty-six point six feet below eye level, or visible horizon....Its not... On my flat earth, the horizon always rises to your eye level, whether standing on a beach, or the penthouse of an ocean front building. That's because it's flat... What you believe is the earths curvature, is in fact the vanishing line of perspective from your point of view. The flat horizon changes in relation your vantage point. Viewed from ground level or a jet at thirty-five thousand feet, each flat horizon will have a different line of perspective. A boat disappearing over the vanishing line of perspective comes back into view through a pair of binoculars. An impossibility were if the earth were a ball. There is a reason they call it sea level. Water will always find its level. To believe the spinning ball theory, you must believe that the waters surface is in the shape of what's underneath. If earth was a ball, jets would have to compensate for the curvature with a constant downward trajectory; otherwise they would crash into water firmament dome. In truth, jets fly level, because there isn't any curvature. The artificial horizon instrument in the cockpit of a plane indicates whether the pilot is flying level to the horizon. This gauge is a mechanical gyroscope, without a single internal electrical component, adjusting itself into an upright position, indicating a level flight in relation to the ground. Therefore if a jet followed the true curvature of the fictional earth ball, the artificial horizon should roll back to reflect that curvature. The constant flat line on the artificial horizon instrument proves the horizon is always flat. In addition the sundial, periscope, and lighthouse could not function on a round spinning ball. What about the Coriolis effect? Where by a mass moving in a rotating system, experiences the Coriolis force acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. This is the fictional cousin to gravity..ha..ha.

Since the work of J.J. Heckel (1846-1849), the number of valid species has increased significantly and the systematic status of many of the species has changed, and reorganization and updating of the published information has become essential. Here we take the opportunity to provide a new and updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Iran based on literature and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history and new fish collections. This article lists 288 species in 107 genera, 28 families, 22 orders and 3 classes reported from different Iranian basins. However, presence of 23 reported species in Iranian waters needs confirmation by specimens.

    WHRO-TV Highlights April 2015 Nova “Alien Planets Revealed” Wednesday, April 1, 2015, 8:00-9:00 p.m. ASA’s planet-hunting Kepler Telescope has discovered thousands of exotic new worlds far beyond our solar system. Are any of them like Earth? And what sort of life could flourish on them? With vivid animation and input from expert astrophysicists and astrobiologists, NOVA takes you on a mind-bending exploration of these strange worlds and the possible creatures we might one day encounter there. Cancer the Emperor of all Maladies “Finding the Achilles Heel” Wednesday, April 1, 2015, 9:00-11:00 p.m. This episode starts at a moment of optimism: Scientists believe they have cracked the mystery of the malignant cell, and the first targeted therapies have been developed. But very quickly cancer reveals new layers of complexity and a formidable array of defenses. Many call for a new focus on prevention and early detection as the most promising fronts in the war on cancer. By the second decade of the 2000s, the bewildering complexity of the cancer cell yields to a more ordered picture, revealing new vulnerabilities and avenues of attack. Perhaps most exciting is the prospect of harnessing the human immune system to defeat cancer. A 60-year-old NASCAR mechanic with melanoma and a six-year-old with leukemia are pioneers in new immunotherapy treatments, which the documentary follows as their stories unfold. A Chef’s Life, Season 2 “The Fish Episode, Y’all” Thursday, April 2, 2015, 9:00-9:30 p.m. Vivian presents a few of the many ways fish makes its appearance in southern cooking.

  • Both Gordimer and Coetzee Have Been Preoccupied, Throughout Their Careers, with the Responsibility of the Novelist
    Volume 2: 2009-2010 ISSN: 2041-6776 9 { Both Gordimer and Coetzee have been preoccupied, throughout their careers, with the responsibility of the novelist. From your reading of the novels, how would you say their ideas about responsibility differ? Hamish Matthews Considering the responsibility of the novelist in South Africa involves questions deeply embedded in the country's troubled history. The spectre of apartheid casts an unavoidable shadow over writers from white privileged society despite the breakdown of the political system of apartheid. With regard to the problem of the author's position Gallagher queries, ”how one can write for œ in support of œ the ”Other‘ without presuming to write for œ assuming power over œ the Other.‘ 1 The ”Other‘ is a term used to refer to the black majority, in that they had been so suppressed by apartheid, that their sudden integration into South African culture did not erase the ingrained difference projected during apartheid between the ”us‘ and ”them‘ of whites and blacks. There are two extremes in which the racist hierarchy can live on through art. In speaking for the ”Other‘ there is a risk of a continuing form of linguistic colonialism. At the other end of the scale is the counter-fear of an outright refusal to deal with the ”Other‘, accepting unbridgeable differences, straying toward recreating the rhetoric that formed apartheid. It is between these two fears that Coetzee and Gordimer carefully tread. Coetzee leans strongly towards the impossibility of representation, pushing language to its limit to expose the limitations of current literary conditions.

Because the presence of female poets in Iranian literature is a relatively recent phenomenon, there are few published studies describing and analysing Iranian women’s poetry; most of the critical studies that do exist were completed in the last three decades after the Revolution in 1979.

  • 1895 Reminisces of Richard Ballantyne
    This is a transcribed copy of a handwritten journal, written in a “University Notebook”, dated and signed by Richard Ballantyne. It is available on microfilm at the following address: Church Archives, Family and Church History Department 15 East North Temple Street Salt Lake City, Utah 84150 Manuscript MS 7151 3-4 (vol. 1 & vol. 2) Footnotes for clarification and additional family history information have been added by the transcriber, M. Dee Humpherys. Some transcription was done by the staff of the Church History Library. Some minor editing for punctuation and spelling has been done. Bold face on text in the body of the manuscript indicates text underlined by Richard for emphasis. 1895 Reminiscences of Richard Ballantyne [4th Account] Ogden City, Utah 12 February 1895 Having only in the past written quite imperfectly regarding my biography, or ancestry, I now make a fresh attempt to revise and supplement past efforts: And hope my health, with the blessings of God, will enable me to compile, in order, the scraps I have formerly written, and will mark this tablet No. 1 of the Series. The journals I wrote while on a mission to India (or Hindustan) are quite full in detail, and I will consequently not rewrite them. But as they, on account of frequent sickness, do not contain some matters of much importance, I will include such omissions in this memoranda. s/ Richard Ballantyne Chapter 1 Beginning with my ancestry I here state that my father’s name was David Ballantyne. He was born in the year 1743 and died in 18291 being then 86 years of age.
