Predicted the F 35, current war, terrorist attack, exactly

I read this book near two years ago, I remembered today that Karl Maddox mentioned something about a new F35 war plane to be used in a future war in the Middle East. The reason why I remembered it is since the Pentagon today announced the release of the F 35. I re read many parts of the book today. I am shocked. Not only does this book mention in exact words F 35 but also the attacks of terrorism, the war in Afghanistan, that we would be forced into a much stricter way of living, the current long term biological warfare. He mentions the current war, and that there will be a future war sometime before the year 2020 when these Jets will be used, with nuclear weapons! I don't want to mislead any one by this part of the book, the book is mostly a fun journey in time and is very comfortable reading. I read some other reviews here saying this book is similar to a Disney or Star Wars type of movie, I agree, It is a super story but before September 11th I did not relate to the predictions. I was caught up in the story of our destiny, which is ourselves being one or god, that we could save ourselves by our children of the future.

Made of the right stuff

I found this book while doing a search, after reading sb 1 I am surprised that it is not on the bestseller lists. I am convinced this is due to lack of publicity which puts many books in places they really should not be. This book packs a powerful message and has a surprisingly entertaining story. It is a good story for all ages and peoples to include a good lesson for many religious factions at war with each other, however this message is relayed without any trace of fanatical deviance. Maddox knew he was writing to the majority and kept this book in check with norms of society. The book does not contain one story, but many subset stories that will have you noding yes, yes, and yes! This is not a religious book, it is many books in one. Ourselves being one or God takes us to a new pinnacle of achievement in that if we succeed at peace our children thousands of years in the future could in fact save us as being contributors to their existence. The main storyline is great and the characters are similar to star wars type, Harrison Ford...and so on. The characters go on a spectacular journey in time, distant future and past, incredible! I read all of the other reviews here and found many to be out of order. I saw one that says this book is about some janitor or the author himself, very inaccurate, naive and aggressive. I then realized there are two types of people who would for the most part love this, but the minority and unaware would hate. That is the case many a time when a new person emerges with a new and phenomenal bright idea. In my opinion Maddox is equal to Carl Sagan in passing on the message and this book is better than The Celestine Prophecy by head and shoulders. I do recommend reading the Celestine Prophecy before reading SB 1. SB1 or God also contains one very powerful and realistic philosophy as well as mainstream entertainment. The humor is top line and the facts are supported making this book exactly what a good book is made of. The book has been published, for good reason, and I believe in the next few years with a little publicity will make the top.

I am Impressed

All I can say is that this book is for all ages, all races, all faiths, for everyone. I feel that a person is missing a very important message if they do not read this book. Two thumbs up.

Original and on the up and up!

A new idea which gives the ultimate reason as to why we all should be at peace with one another and be Earth concious. When all is said and done there is usually the statement of what we "coulda, woulda, shoulda done". This is exactly what this author is relaying to us all well in advance and in pure scientific format (However the book is well dramatised for those of you who need good entertainment)that is well understood. Yet this book has undertones that convey the more indepth material to the educated, the very well educated. I am surprised at the attention to this type of detail, which can and I am sure escapes many, it is in my opinion designed this way to send the point of this book into everyone who can read. There is a great deal of supportive evidence of the central theme in this paperback. Many of us who are not educated on such things as real biblical history and evolution are not at all cut short in this book, we are in fact enlightened to realize so much more. The educated I am sure are delighted as this story unfolds. The humor and related stories within the central theme kept me very attached to the book. A mainstream read is definite here, and planned. I thought about skipping work to finish reading it, but wound up finishing it in my car after my shift at the office parking lot. I think that reveals, this book is worth reading, again and again.

Excellent cover to cover!

This is the most enlightening book I have ever read and have told all my friends about it, I do not recommend anything to my friends unless it is superior. The idea of we shall Be one or God that this Brilliant man Karl Maddox has so cooly demonstrated is in fact an applicable method to helping ourselves. This book is also mainstream entertainment as well, very well written and high in character.
