It is based on a basic set of universal values as the foundation for a peaceful and progressive society.

We seek to build a worldwide middle class and establish standards that will assure security, justice and equality for all people while providing a safety net for the struggling people of the world. Last, we will require open and free communications on the internet for all citizens worldwide so the people of the world can talk directly to each other without governmental restrictions.

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." Ephesians 6:10-13 Jim Davis has examined the births, lives, and deaths of 52 of the world's most notorious serial killers, mass murderers, thieves, and destroyers from the perspective of the probable demonic influences in their lives and the numerous schemes that the devil has used to deceive, divert and destroy their lives as well. Davis proposes common themes seen in these lives which reveal the same patterns and destructive tendencies that the devil has always used from the beginning. To lie, kill, steal, and destroy; that is his gameplan! The world forces at play on wars, politics, zombies, vampires, gender identity, reproductive choice, parenting, sexuality, false prophets, and religion are exposed. Employing a dark demonic humor, he invites his readers to examine the hidden darkness and influences in their own lives that are not usually considered in affecting life events.
