A Shot of History: Convict Hell (eBook, ePUB)

The year 2022 marks the 200th anniversary of the establishment of the penal settlement at Macquarie Harbour. This convict penal settlement located on the isolated primeval rugged west coast of Van Diemen's Land (Tasmania) quickly gained a reputation as an 'Earthy Hell'. Colonial historian John West succinctly recorded in 1852: 'The name Macquarie Harbour is associated exclusively with remembrance of inexpressible depravity, degradation, and woe. Sacred to the genius of torture, Nature concurred with the objects of its separation from the rest of the world, to exhibit some notion of a perfect misery. There, man lost the aspect and the heart of man …. This region is lashed with tempests: the sky is cloudy, and the rain falls more frequently than elsewhere. In its chill and humid climate, animal life is preserved with difficulty; half the goats died in one season, and sheep perished; vegetation, except in its coarsest and most massive forms is situated and precarious …. The passage to this dreary dwelling place was tedious and often dangerous. The prisoners, confined in a narrow space, were tossed for weeks on an agitated sea. As they approached, they beheld a narrow opening chocked with a bar of sand and crossed with peril. This they called Hell's Gate - not less appropriate to the place than to the character and torment of the inhabitants: beyond they saw impenetrable forests, skirted with an impervious thicket; and beyond still enormous mountains covered with snow, which rose to the clouds like walls of adamant: every object wore the air of rigour, ferocity, and sadness'. This was just the beginning for those sentenced to Macquarie Harbour the barbaric treatment from officials and fellow convicts alike, resulted in Macquarie Harbour representing a true convict hell hole, not only resulting in murder, but in cannibalism by several men in their attempts to escape.

The Himalayan Connection: UFO's and the Chandian Effect , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 37min

In July of 1978 I was doing genealogical research at Sawan Ashram in Old Delhi, India. Although I was aptly forewarned that the heat in the summer was excruciating, the 90 percent humidity and 100 degree plus temperatures overwhelmed me. My only relief from the weather came in the evenings. But even then it was slight. On the second to last day of my stay, Jean Lyotard, a noted architect from Northern California, and I decided to spend some time on the roof of the monastery. He was leaving in a few days to go back to America. I was to go northward for further research on the Radhasoami tradition. The Indic sky sparkled with stars that night and our conversation eventually turned to astronomy - the natural extension of which led to the subject of exobiology and UFOs. Jean commented, "I believe UFO's exist and that we have been visited by higher intelligences from other galaxies". Knowing first hand of Jean's intelligence and perceptive observations, I probed further, "Why do you say that?" - "Because I have seen them myself many times"! His answer was nonchalant. "What were they? Strange lights in the sky, like a luminous ball or a shooting star"? - "Yes, but more than that...I have been contacted by extraterrestrials personally". I gulped, realizing that my dinner of dal and chappatis had not yet been fully digested. "What! Come with that again"."It was in Southern France 10 years ago. I was in the countryside when I beheld them. The most beautiful being I have ever seen radiated before me and pointed to the sky. He told me to concentrate on the brilliance above. As I became attentive I was pulled up toward the light. However, the experience was so intense I hesitated and turned away. I have seen them on many occasions. The being was the most exquisite creature. His face, his eyes were...well...beyond description".I could not help thinking of several fanciful stories I had read before. Jean's account sounded too much like a headline i ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tracy Collier. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/212061/bk_acx0_212061_sample.mp3.

Asteroid Impact! Revelation Foretells Our End , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 250min

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth... (Revelation 6:13) An asteroid will destroy mankind just as one destroyed the dinosaurs. The Book of Revelation in the Bible reveals this destiny: "And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood." (Revelation 6:12) Matthew supports this: "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken." (Matthew 29) Joel states: “I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord." (Joel 2:30-31) Isaiah states: "And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth." (Isaiah 2:19) An ancient document was found and its basic message is that mankind will be destroyed by an asteroid hitting Earth. The end can occur at any time. To understand and assess the truth of this, Asteroid Impact: Revelation Foretells Our End reviews the purpose of Revelation, who wrote it, and why and how it was written. The book explores the scientific facts upon which the predictions of the Bible are based and analyzes the history of asteroid impacts on Earth in order to assess the accuracy of Biblical predictions. We see that Revelation’s foretelling will almost surely come to pass, for there was war in heaven: "Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven." (Revelation 12:7-8) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Craig. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/007917/bk_acx0_007917_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
