God Eternal Life and the World according to Bruce

"God Eternal Life and the World according to Bruce" is a philosophical journey in the quest to find the real meaning of God. This book takes a sincere look at religion and the belief in God and eternal life and tries to understand, or explain how God might, or should be perceived, and how today's perception of God and eternal life might be flawed, or just plain incorrect. This book does not discount the reality of God, but questions how God should be viewed. This book is written in and with a firm belief that God is indeed real, and that life is indeed eternal, but man's perception's of God and eternal life are ambiguous, contradictory, and illogical. This book tries to point out where current spiritual philosophy might be flawed and tries to point out what might be a more logical, or correct way to view such things.

Auteur

Born in upstate New York in 1951 to a loving couple from the Greatest generation. I was at the front end of the baby boom and watched much of today's technology come into existence. I started out in a local public elementary school, where I had lots of friends that lived in my town. We all knew each other and were growing up together in a quaint setting which was very "Mayberry-ish". I ended up being moved to a Catholic School in another town nine miles from my home school and friends where I got an education in resourcefulness and endurance at the hands of some very violent women who beat children and talked about God. In high school, I pretty much kept to myself, but I did try my hand at football, which I wasn't very good at, and I joined the Ski Team, which I loved and excelled at. That was my one real success at that point in my life. Upon graduation from high school in 1971, I joined the US Air Force, where I learned aircraft maintenance and worked on large jet aircraft. I love aviation so I felt like I was finally in my element. I bought a guitar and started to learn music and songwriting, with fantasies of being a popular singer-songwriter, but not all things are meant to be, though I did manage to write some songs and some poetry. One of the dominant topics of thought I kept in my head was about God and eternal life. I also loved to think about the universe and study astronomy. I wanted to know more than anyone could know and understand everything about God and Eternal life. After many not-so-great jobs and a marriage that ended after 22 years, resulting in the birth of two of the most incredible people I've ever known, I decided to go to college at the age of 49, where I got an education in electronics. I was fortunate enough to land a job as a technician building Neutron Detectors for the Spallation Neutron Source, located at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge TN. Still pondering God and Eternal Life I decided to write a book about my views on man and spirituality. So "Here I Am" in 2022 fulfilling the first step on the path that God is directing me to take.
