Declaration of the first book of the Amarantion series

I have been a writer at least since I was six years old, when I started my own school newspaper entitled "Stuper News" and documented the history of battles among my action figures. For the past seven years I have been engrossed in serious soul searching and research of a wide array of subjects in my own determination to produce a cohesive body of work in the scifi/fantasy vein that is both truthful and inspirational--an Ice Breaker that clearly exposes the illusions of the current world paradigm and visualizes a new one.

The central themes are to embrace love as given, rather than as we want it to be; to seek salvation within, instead of outside yourself; and to focus on the formation of an international Brotherhood that can deliver the new paradigm. Hence the birth of the Solenicon. I hope to release the first book of this series entitled Amarantion: Gospel of the Pearlfisher Bard later this year, and begin the journey of sharing its message with all of you.

A review of the Urantia Book from the Solenicon viewpoint

The Urantia Book is another in a series of attempts to advance the hold of the Messianic belief system on our collective psyche. It offers no new significant insight into its subject matter.  It is, quite frankly, tedious and boring. It is alarmingly conscious of its modern audience and aims to please through its elaborate use of pseudo-science to explain its cosmology, and detailed prose to give an exhaustive account of Jesus’ life. However, its cosmological terminology is trite to the point of senselessness, relying strictly on vague modifiers to give the same word endless meanings; and its endless narrative apparently aims to prove that Jesus’ life was certainly eventful, but spiritually ordinary. It helps us in no way see what it took for a man to finally kick the money lenders out of the Temple, and relegates whatever spiritual inspiration the man might have had to a “Thought Adjuster,” whatever the hell that’s supposed to mean. We’re told it’s not the soul or the conscience. It sounds more like a throwback to the Jewish concept of an “extra soul”—that little extra something that sets them apart from gentiles.

Nowhere in the Urantia Book is there recognition of the Feminine Divine; once again, we are relegated to the ever-masculine Trinity of Father, Son and Spirit, or Holy Ghost. And with it there is lacking, as there is in all the religions, the sense of compassion and sensuality that are core to the human expression of Beauty, Truth and Wisdom. All you get is a not-so-neat, not-much-clearer set of rules and guidelines for what is Good and what is Bad in life—the very words William Blake detested and labored to remove from our lexicon. 

Lucifer’s Rebellion is a lot less organic here than in Milton, and therefore lacks impact to sway one’s mind to even care. It could have happened in Venezuela for all we know. What bearing those it have on our souls what some ET/angelic “System Sovereigns” did to express their sense of individuality? And why in bloody hell should we be punished with isolation for living on a planet that happens to fall under their jurisdiction? The human sensibility is completely lacking.

If that weren’t enough, let’s make up characters like Caligastia to fabricate a now-more-confusing unholy Trinity of Lucifer, Satan and the Devil. Let’s populate the world with yellow people and blue people and purple people—Good grief!—and turn Adam and Eve into the first ineffectual rulers, who could not help but lose Utopia, and are relieved of their responsibility for blighting mankind through the exploitation of those same human weaknesses we all could relate to.  And in the end, after investing countless of our productive hours to this poorly written melodrama/textbook, what do we walk away with? Love as Jesus did? Didn’t we already know that? Do we need to embrace yet another confusing, ineffectual belief system to grasp the value of that principle?

These new Revelation books are hypnotic. They snatch up a new generation of youngsters looking for an excuse not to feel responsible for the world they’ve accepted at wholesale value. Do what you want or do nothing, it doesn’t matter: a Messiah will come (or return) to set things right. You might as well jump into the fiery furnace of Moloch for what good that will do you. There are no Revelations or Good Books to follow; there is only the life you create for yourself. You want an excuse to be lazy? Your excuse is Freewill. And the one to blame is not Lucifer, it’s your own damn self ‘cause you know better.
