Book Description
AI Prediction Ask any popular AI system (ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Meta Llama, Microsoft Copilot) about Globalism. AI will tell you that Globalism is necessary to secure humanity’s future. This book provides the main reasons and strategies for establishing our one-world government. Included in the Book An outline of methods for establishing our one-world government. Positive reasons for our one-world government. How to create a felt need in world populations. Understanding the obstacles to our one-world government. Knowing how to overcome the obstacles. This book is a college course entitled Globalism 101. Understand the World Our plan for establishing our one-world government explains nearly all current world events. Philosophy has given us Occam’s Razor. A popular understanding is that the simplest explanation is the best. We prefer this variation: the simplest theory covering the most data is the best. Establishing our one-world government is a straightforward theory for world affairs that covers the most data. Some will use this book to work against humanity’s highest goal of forming our one-world government. Most systems of conditioning, indoctrination, and control are already under our influence and reaping benefits worldwide. Be among the first to understand what is happening in the world. No possibility exists of going backward but only of moving forward. Openness about our purposes and methods can only help us. The Greatest Event in History Be part of the greatest event in history: the formation of our one-world government. Accept our one perspective to rule them all. Love it or hate it, our one-world government is now the inevitable reality of humankind. Let’s make it happen sooner rather than later for the benefit of the people and planet. Understanding your part and the many options and ways you can help will speed up our glorious results. You can also write and contribute specifics for creating the need, removing obstacles, and increasing participation in the process of our long overdue ideal. You may become a coordinator or provider of resources. Do your part today! Don’t Worry Have faith. We are now proceeding on so many fronts that it is impossible for us not to achieve our ultimate goal. One effort might be curtailed for a while, but it will likely be reborn in a new iteration under a new moniker. Remember, the power of reframing. Anything we need to accomplish our goals is “progressive” and positive for society. People want what we have. However, we must serve it to them in the most palatable ways using idealistic slogans, flowery words, and politically charged imagery. Those against us will be mocked and derided in the most demeaning ways possible. Our enemies will be despised and find it hard or impossible to survive without apologizing and joining our team, at least in some hidden fashion. If you are not with us, you are against us. It is simple to accuse our enemies of any wrongdoings we are committing or planning to commit. The new requires removing the old. To better use the land and resources, dig up the old, dying olive tree and replace it with a new one. It is necessary to undermine and destroy existing governmental structures so evolutionarily superior ones can finally replace them. Soon, there will not be enough integrity left in the systems holding governments together, and governments will start to collapse from within spontaneously. At this point, we are ready to move in and take over for the betterment of humankind and the planet. We are already implanted everywhere. Be prepared! The end and beginning are arriving!

Book Description
This book examines how the world is rapidly becoming a single global village. The result of this trend is twofold: nations with nearly unlimited resources are gaining even greater power and wealth, while others are sinking deeper into poverty. This book challenges Christians to live responsibly so all God's people are treated with economic justice.

Book Description
In the late 20th century, the world has grown increasingly smaller because of advances in technology and the erosion of the nation-state as a political paradigm. The process of globalization—with its promises of a common culture, a common currency, and a common government—offers a new political model for the world that fosters unity and community. At the same time, however, this process threatens to destroy the values, norms, and ideals that particular cultures have wrought and established and to thereby diminish the power of each culture's unique identity. As globalization occurs, society must decide which values will be normative and what roles that social institutions like religion and education will play in selecting and fostering these values. The contributors to this volume examine both the promise and the threat of globalization using the tools of theological ethics to understand and evaluate the "social contexts of life at the deepest moral and spiritual levels." This inaugural volume of a projected four volume series, Theology for the 21st Century: God and Globalization, examines five spheres of life—economics (Mammon), political science (Mars), psychology and sexuality (Eros), the mass media and the arts (Muses), and religion—that foster normative values for society. As the writers argue, their efforts attempt to determine whether "God is behind globalization in any substantive way." Contributors to the volume include: Roland Robertson, University of Pittsburgh; Yersu Kim, UNESCO; Donald W. Shriver, Jr., New York; William Schweiker, University of Chicago; Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen, Eastern College; David Tracy, University of Chicago. Max L. Stackhouse teaches at Princeton Theological Seminary and is the author of Covenant and Commitments: Faith, Family, and Economic. Peter Paris teaches at Princeton Theological Seminary.

Book Description
In today's world, globalisation is a word that describes the ubiquitous spread of multinational corporations and their influence into every region and every country. Those who oppose globalisation today point to the damage it is doing to the natural environment, to cultural heritage and to biological diversity. They argue that it is neither transparent nor accountable, neither ecologically nor economically sustainable and that it puts profit before the democratic will of the people. This book traces the roots of this globalisation process to a belief in one god who rules the universe. The hegemonious god of Moses is a god shared by three major world religions and many other lesser ones. Together they constitute more than half the world's population. The god of Moses dismisses all other gods and goddesses and establishes one way, and one way only, of seeing the world.

Book Description
An exploration of how ordinary U.S. Christians create global connections through the multibillion-dollar child sponsorship industry Child sponsorship emerged from nineteenth-century Protestant missions to become one of today’s most profitable private fund-raising tools in organizations including World Vision, Compassion International, and ChildFund. Investigating two centuries of sponsorship and its related practices in American living rooms, churches, and shopping malls, Christian Globalism at Home reveals the myriad ways that Christians who don’t travel outside of the United States cultivate global sensibilities. Kaell traces the movement of money, letters, and images, along with a wide array of sponsorship’s lesser-known embodied and aesthetic techniques, such as playacting, hymn singing, eating, and fasting. She shows how, through this process, U.S. Christians attempt to hone globalism of a particular sort by oscillating between the sensory experiences of a God’s eye view and the intimacy of human relatedness. These global aspirations are buoyed by grand hopes and subject to intractable limitations, since they so often rely on the inequities they claim to redress. Based on extensive interviews, archival research, and fieldwork, Christian Globalism at Home explores how U.S. Christians imagine and experience the world without ever leaving home.

Book Description
What is globalization anyway? What are spiritually-minded people— on all sides of the issue—doing and saying about it? The economic and cultural dynamic of globalization is transforming the world at an unprecedented pace. But what exactly is it? What are its origins? What is its impact on our spiritual lives? This lucid introduction surveys the religious landscape, explaining in clear and nonjudgmental language the beliefs that motivate spiritual leaders, activists, theologians, academics, and others involved on all sides of the issue. Included are the points-of-view of: Bah’s Buddhists Earth-based and tribal religions Hindus Jews Muslims Protestants Roman Catholics Unlike other books on this controversial issue, this easy-to-read introduction won’t tell you what to think; it gives you the information you need to reach your own conclusions. "As important as economics may be, it is not, as the great religions stress, the full measure of humanity. There is also connection to self, to others, to the ingrained values that have sustained cultures for generations and millennia, and to the belief in transcendence that gives it all meaning. In the end, what unnerves people most about globalization—including many in the West who may fairly be said to be on the winning side (economically, that is) of the process so far—is the threat it poses to that which is most precious to a life of satisfaction: our sense of meaning." —from the Conclusion
