I am glad to see more being done to help
people find this wonderful book. I have been a reader/student since 1981 and have always wondered if it would ever enter the 'mainstream' in my lifetime and at age 50 I still wonder. I know that many bible readers instantly reject it as 'false' or 'science fiction' and even 'demonic' that has always been frustrating but maybe that will change with more time...
Great website-hope it gets more traffic in the future
