“There have been many theories put forward as causes of the Liberian civil war — including unemployment, abuse of human rights, political patronage, illiteracy, lack of development and tribalism, among others. While it is true that all of these factors may have contributed, at the heart of the Liberian conflict — as with all global conflicts —is psychological conditioning, the fundamental cause of all human conflict.” - From the book Brave New Child - Liberating the Children of Liberia - and the World

The intent of this book is to bring about peace through the understanding of what prevents peace. Peace: The Enemy of Freedom - The Myth of Nonviolence does not offer solutions, methods, conclusions or hopes about peace. It does not advocate any political, philosophical or religious reform to solve the problem of war. This book poses fundamental questions on what prevents peace, and by so doing, evokes insight into that which creates conflict, individually and globally.

Can we bring about an ethical understanding, a mind that is virtuous, innocent, untouched by conventional moralistic thinking? Religious Impulse - The Quest for Innocence is concerned with the development of ethical and responsible behavior. This book questions the traditional religious process of becoming good, and examines how this process paradoxically cultivates irresponsible and immoral behavior through the inculcation of conventional theological beliefs.
