I want to know the truth.

Yet we also encourage you to keep an open mind and do research using the links to the reliable sources provided to determine for yourself whether there is truth to the information provided.

The powerful information presented here is a wake-up call. It is a call to move beyond complacency and apathy to focus on our deeper purpose in life and on creating the world we want to live in.

Many don't want to know about the dark side of our world. Feeling secure and content in their personal lives, they choose to avoid matters which might disturb them.

In fact, they will likely fester and grow in magnitude until people are finally forced to open their eyes and deal with the consequences. The sooner each of us decides that we do want to know, and that we are willing to invite others to open their eyes, the more easily we will be able to build a world that supports us.

"Our fear of our own shadows is what gives the shadow forces of our world their power. By facing our fears, both individual and collective, we can transform our lives and world for the better."

"The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."  ~~  Martin Luther King, Jr.
