ADAM is a new and sweeping Epic, which easily equals the majestic scope and beauty of The Lord of the Rings in all its power and grandeur. ADAM is the timely telling of the First Man, as is recorded in Genesis, and his story is about enduring Hope and Love in a world falling into chaos.

He was all there was. He was complete, so there did not need to be anything else. But God had a thought, and he wanted to create Angels, so he first made a place big enough to contain them, which he called Heaven. And so he created them. He made all of them, all at once. They were all very surprised and delighted to be created, all fully grown and so strong and healthy. Naturally they all wanted to thank God for creating them, so they formed a long line to pay their respects and give him their thanks. It WAS a long line, stretching off into eternity. This business went on for a very long time, since God and Angels are very patient, but a few of them were wondering aloud if there wouldn't be a better way to say thanks. http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=47&Itemid=27 Why was I born this way?

Hello. Thanks for inviting me to speak today at your Jewish Innkeepers Convention.

The brightness of the day hurt Richard's eyes, as he squinted through the dirty window of the prison bus. No air conditioning, of course. Not for the likes of people like him, for he was being transfered to court, where he would be sentenced and condemned. His crime? Being a professing Christian. http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=32 A Study of the Bible the First Christians Used - the Old Testament There are no dispensations or 'Ages' in the Bible. There is only one single Story. A story of God who created Man and who loved him, even to the point of dying for him. This is the story of all stories; the story of Jesus, who even interacted with Mankind before his incarnation in the New Testament. A College Level Course Presented by Roger Born http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=32&Itemid=31 One Song. I have but one song, one song only for you. One heart tenderly beating, ever entreating, constant and true. One Love, that has possessed me, thrilling me through. One Song my heart keeps singing, one love only for you. Some day when spring is here, we'll find our Love anew. And the birds will sing, and wedding bells will ring, some day when my dreams come true. In the public domain, 1985. from Snow White, by Walt Disney, 1937. Once in the country of Orange, on the western coast of a magic land there lived the Tin Knight. T.K. was his name. He was a godly and gentle man who loved a young maiden named Truth, from La-la land, whom he had courted and wed, and who lived with him in a little castle down the lane. http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=20&Itemid=27 The plane fell from the sky. The pilot survived, but was in the hospital at Trebek a hundred miles from here. My folks got the stuff out of the wreck, since it was on our land, and it got stored in the barn. Then it was forgot. http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=14&Itemid=31 Ah. . . Hello. I am not from around here. How are you? You remember me? Yes? Most fortunate for me! A few seconds ago, erm, six months ago, we took a walk among the atoms. That was most enjoyable being there where everything is in perfect symmetry in every direction. I think this publication you are reading (a Webzine?) still has the recording of that walk we took, in their archives somewhere. But now I have returned so that we can take a walk through the other end of the spectrum, which is the Universe. I romantically call this a walk among the stars, but it is much more than that. http://www.rogerborn.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=13&Itemid=31 View orginal article at MyMac.com (http://mymac.com/showarticle.php?id=510) Have you ever wondered what its like down there, among things as small as atoms? Come take a short stroll and see. Oh, don't worry, we'll use the regular cantations to get there and back, so come along and prepare to be amazed.
