We have figured out humans.  We know how the human body works.  We have discovered the secrets of DNA and mapped the human genome. We can manipulate the body, fool it and even control it. We drug them and make them happy or sad. We have mastered human biology and biochemistry. We have deciphered the mysteries of human hardware.

The journey continues. Pashotan must save his love.

Cyrus pieced his kingdom together using a mixture of conquest and diplomacy, attesting to his skills as a warrior and a statesman.

How an entire population becomes mentally ill? The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste preferring to deify error if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master. Whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim. by Academy of Ideas

Whether you believe in god or not, whether you believe in Satan or not, it does not make any difference. The forces of Good and Evil, from the beginning of time, have been in conflict. Earth is the battleground and the grand prize is the human soul. Choose your side wisely. It's about your eternal damnation or Salvation!

In the 21st century, political power grows in the labs and out of a needle. A global dictatorship is in the making, and those who planned it put the full force of fear and intimidation to subdue the world population into total submission. Their primary weapon is a needle.

I often think about which world are we living in? Is it a simulation of life as it’s been portrayed in the movie Matrix? Or are we living in “The Truman Show”? The charade of COVID left no doubt that we are being played within a Truman Show-like world of scripts, cameras, directors, actors, and plots. It is a thoroughly planned, scripted, and seamlessly controlled environment in which a group of s...

This episode is the Persian version of the Fall of the Western Ubermensch. 

The idea of Ubermensch, as Superior Man lived on and is alive and well in the 21st century. It’s lost its institutionalized and openly government-sponsored form and instead went into the heads of a small group of powerful, super-rich, self-righteous, and ruthless men. Today, they plan to darken the earth’s atmosphere to block the sun, and tomorrow they invest in the distribution of vaccines by usi...

All four kings sooner and later had to face off with Ahriman, the source of lies and darkness, and stand against him.
