As kids begin making their first steps toward independence, they receive messages from a variety of sources-not all of them good. Television, movies, friends, the Internet, and music fill their minds with ideas about what they should be doing with their time, their bodies, and their lives. Once these ideas take hold, the results can be tragic. "Armed & Dangerous" offers powerful suggestions about how we can protect our children. If we can teach them to resist the evil thoughts that play in their minds, they can prevent those thoughts from corrupting their hearts.

"We live in a great country. Yet we must have faith and trust in our government or we cannot succeed. On the other hand, the government must also believe in its own people.

Kennedy happened in 1963, the reverberations of this horrific event are still felt today. Discrepancies and questions about the assassination remain unanswered.

The Ancient and Mystic Order of Rosae Crucis bills itself as a nonsectarian group whose members study the mysteries of the universe. Through weekly monographs, AMORC dispenses lessons in telepathy, telekinesis, and other supernatural activities. Spiritual seekers might believe that AMORC can deliver on its promise to help them achieve cosmic consciousness. Skeptics might dismiss it as harmless nonsense. Both would be wrong. A former AMORC member, Pierre S. Freeman reveals the cult's hidden agenda, along with the advanced hypnotic techniques it employs to slowly gain control over the people who join. If you are thinking about becoming involved with the order, or you want to free yourself from its grasp, you will find the insider knowledge within AMORC Unmasked invaluable. About the Author Pierre S. Freeman was exposed to AMORC's mind-control techniques for twenty-four years. In his first book, The Prisoner of San Jose, he describes his experiences with the order, and how he finally deprogrammed himself. Freeman is currently a successful analyst for several large financial institutions in the Minneapolis area.
