Noah Stone is a man! The kind all men would like to be! He is like the famous 'Pardner' in that he too is the epitome of the 'Lover, Fighter and Wild Horse rider! We are going to follow him through his life. It is not always the typical 'Hero Fluff' most authors try to present. Noah's story is a more realistic tale of a bold and fearless man who walks through life Without Fear or Hesitation. I hope you enjoy his story!

Iran and the Muslim countries where the irrational burqa is more popular today than one or two generations ago count more politically and economically than a few years ago. The countries of the West where the miniskirt and more relaxed moral attitudes have been more popular count always less in the world scene. Third world countries with high birth rates have progressed relatively more than Western countries with lower birth rates. Afghanistan, with a population five times larger than after the Second World War and with the burqa always more popular, with women irrationally subjugated according to western standards, has militarily resisted both Russia and America. This is progress to be taken in consideration. Viet Nam won militarly against America, when the growth of the population, during the bombing, was growing at a formidable 3% annually. In the times of Thomas Malthus and Benjamin Franklin, the birth rates and the moral standards of the Puritans were very similar to these developing countries today. Progress, however, has never been synonimous with happiness on this earth. Young people from developing countries dare to attack America and the western countries in their own territories. In the same way England and European countries were expanding their political power to Asia and Africa at the times of Malthus and Franklin. The mentality of the miniskirt s an indicator of the imminent collapse of the western civilization. The irrational mentality of the burqa and of the suicide terrorists, is an indicator of political progress and growth of those peoples.

If it could be said that a personal relationship can be developed between a human being and an impersonal spirit guide, then author Dr. C. Norman Shealy accomplished this with G. They established a type of communication that was intense, at times personal, but also productive with G providing Shealy a view of what human beings could heal if their consciousness would only break free or break through of its illusions. In Conversations with G, Shealy not only offers an overview of his life and his successful medical career and healing advancements, but he shares conversations with his spirit guide, G, who has been a part of his life for more than thirty years.A story that inspires the spirit as much as expands the mind, Conversations with G narrates a personal journey of mystical encounters with angelic teachers and materialization and dematerialism which have led to numerous medical- and health-enhancing discoveries.
