The Clocks Are Telling Lies

The Clocks Are Telling Lies

Scott Alan Johnston

McGill-Queen's University Press
2022
sidottu
Until the nineteenth century all time was local time. On foot or on horseback, it was impossible to travel fast enough to care that noon was a few minutes earlier or later from one town to the next. The invention of railways and telegraphs, however, created a newly interconnected world where suddenly the time differences between cities mattered.The Clocks Are Telling Lies is an exploration of why we tell time the way we do, demonstrating that organizing a new global time system was no simple task. Standard time, envisioned by railway engineers such as Sandford Fleming, clashed with universal time, promoted by astronomers. When both sides met in 1884 at the International Meridian Conference in Washington, DC, to debate the best way to organize time, disagreement abounded. If scientific and engineering experts could not agree, how would the public? Following some of the key players in the debate, Scott Johnston reveals how people dealt with the contradictions in global timekeeping in surprising ways – from zealots like Charles Piazzi Smyth, who campaigned for the Great Pyramid to serve as the prime meridian, to Maria Belville, who sold the time door to door in Victorian London, to Moraviantown and other Indigenous communities that used timekeeping to fight for autonomy.Drawing from a wide range of primary sources, The Clocks Are Telling Lies offers a thought-provoking narrative that centres people and politics, rather than technology, in the vibrant story of global time telling.

Three Wise Guys

Three Wise Guys

Scott Alan Evans; Jeffrey Couchman

Broadway Play Publishing Inc
2018
pokkari
Christmas Eve, 1932. Three New York wise guys on the run from a hotheaded racketeer journey from a Manhattan speakeasy to a swanky Long Island mansion to a ramshackle barn in Pennsylvania, inadvertently spreading holiday cheer everywhere they go. Based on two short stories by Damon Runyon (GUYS AND DOLLS), this effervescent comedy fizzes with laughter and heart. "Funny, sweet, and thoroughly charming... The voices here are unalloyed, cartoon New York, with a 'guys and dolls' locution that earns laughs as much from sentence structure as from the jokes themselves. In Runyon's universe, unlawful activities are mitigated by a deep but grudging moral code. And his characters, like all good gangsters, occasionally break out into impeccable barbershop harmonies." The New Yorker

Fire Breathing Christians: The Common Believer's Call to Reformation, Revival, and Revolution

Fire Breathing Christians: The Common Believer's Call to Reformation, Revival, and Revolution

Scott Alan Buss

R3volution Press
2010
nidottu
Fire Breathing Christians is a pew-to-pulpit plea for reformation, revival, and revolution. The church has been infiltrated, redefined, and led down a path to man-made, man-centered religion and spirituality. A Mr. Potato Jesus brand of pick-and-choose truth now dominates the scene. In its postmodern abandonment and purpose-driven surrender of the Gospel's essential penetrating edge, American Churchianity has exchanged the perfect, supernaturally forged Sword of Truth for an endless supply of flimsy, pathetic little man-made sporks. In strict theological terms, this is known as "really dumb". And "really dangerous". In a bold call to Christ-centered culture warfare, Fire Breathing Christians encourages and equips Common Believers to identify and overcome many enemies of biblical truth, including: Progressive Religion - Postmodernism's war on biblical truth has hatched a gang of giggling, happily heretical allies in The Artists Formerly Known as The Emergent Church. Progressive Politics - The man-centered "social gospel" is built upon a foundation of Christ-less hope and Christ-less change. This anti-Gospel is the engine that powers the Progressive political movement. Purpose Driven Evangelism - In its embrace of Flu Shot Jesus and Carnal Christianity for the sake of secular appeal, American Churchianity has largely assumed the role of warm and friendly escort to Hell. The Goat Driven Church - Through its purpose driven business model and 'Best Life Now' appeals to greed and narcissism, American Churchianity has been occupied, defined, and dominated by the anti-Christian "goat". Compulsory 'Charity' - Once its voluntary aspect is removed, Christian charity is murdered. Compulsory charity is a biblical oxymoron, but it is a required step down the Progressive path to socialism. Murder for Convenience - Where Nazi Germany murdered millions for horrific reasons, Progressive America has one-upped her super-state sister by murdering tens of millions of the most innocent for mere convenience. In every vital area of consideration, Fire Breathing Christians points directly towards the only solution with the power to save a person, a nation, a culture, or a world: The whole, undiluted Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is the banner under which we must formulate every strategy and fight every battle. This is our source of true hope, peace, and joy. This is the banner that we must restore as our guiding standard in all things. This is our Reformation... our Revival... His Revolution. We were made for such a time as this.

Apathetic Christianity: The Zombie Religion of American Churchianity

Apathetic Christianity: The Zombie Religion of American Churchianity

Scott Alan Buss

R3volution Press
2012
nidottu
From the back cover: Zombie Religion has captivated America...but reformation is coming...revival is coming...revolution is coming...one supernatural salvation at a time. Man-centered religion has redefined America. For nearly a century, it has recast the nation's character and culture...one individual at a time. For the sake of "progress", "seeker sensitivity", and man-centered "love", truth has been abandoned, God has been emasculated, and rebels have been made to feel warm, fuzzy, and secure from the coming judgment. All in Jesus' name, of course. The good news is that there is a supernatural solution to the darkness brought upon our culture by the false christs, gospels, and teachers of American Churchianity. Apathetic lives built upon apathetic doctrine, apathetic love, apathetic justice, apathetic grace, and apathetic truth always result from apathetic Christianity. Yet each and every one of these apathetic counterfeits can and will fall before the supernatural power of the whole, undiluted Gospel of Jesus Christ...if only we'll use it.

No reason to live

No reason to live

Scott Alan Mason

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2011
pokkari
Scott was born and raised in a city just outside of Detroit, MI. Growing up Scott had a very stable home environment. His mother attended a prestigious law school while his step-father owned a successful electrical company. "There wasn't anything that I can remember growing up that I went without. I pretty much had everything and then some, but materialistic things such as clothes, schools, cars and so on didn't fill the void that was so deep in my soul." At the age of 12 Scott was molested by an older individual, and because it was never dealt with Scott eventually turned to drugs and alcohol. By the age of 21 Scott was abusing multiple drugs/alcohol, and because of his addictions he ended up in two psychiatric hospitals, he was arrested over 25 times (twice by SWAT), he was tried and convicted of 36 felonies, and spent nearly a decade locked up in 16 different prisons (multiple sentences) throughout the state of Michigan. While serving time in a prison that some would call "Hell on earth" Scott became a gang member and as time went on he moved up the ranks eventually becoming a leader. It was in this darkness that Scott also found light. One night while attending a prison church service, Scott's life was forever changed. "I remember sitting at this church service thinking how broken my life has truly become. I had so much hatred and darkness in my soul, that the only way to escape all of it, I thought, would be death. That Friday night became the first time I was ever truly free. I wasn't able to go home and be free, but my mind, heart and soul became free, and trust me that was the greatest gift I have ever received." Because of that one moment in time, on a Friday night, inside a prison church service, Scott has become an inspiration for tens of thousands of people who are hurting just like he was. "I know that the second greatest gift Jesus gave me was the ability to communicate to people on so many different levels. That gift needs to be shared, and I share it as much as I possibly can". Since Scott's release from prison in 2002, he has become one of the most outspoken voices in Christianity when it comes to helping people with addictions. His incredible life story is raw, honest, refreshing and real. Since the release of his first book, No Reason To Live in 2011, Scott has been a guest speaker at 50+ events with 20,000+ people in attendance. Scott has worked with multiple state and federal government agencies in the fight against drug addiction in central Ohio. In 2011, Scott co-founded multiple ministries that include sober living homes, drug awareness marches, a teen center, and recruited mentors for multiple high schools located in Indiana and Ohio. In 2013, he became the Chaplain and Outreach Officer for a police department in central Ohio, and in 2016, became the full-time chaplain at Multi-County Correctional Center. Scott continues to be a consultant to multiple agencies such as criminal courts, probation/parole divisions, and narcotics task force/gang units.

My Life in the Zombie Apocalypse: Bettie Page and the Chicken Ranch War Muscle Cars, Big Guns, Inbred Hillbillies, Explosions, Moonshine Liquor, Zombie Whores, Even Bigger Guns, Chickens, and the Great and Terrible Oz... Three years have passed since the beginning of the Zombie Apocalypse which has laid human civilization low as undead hoards roll over the land like a tsunami of biting teeth and clawing hands. Life is very different now, especially for the rural pockets of humanity that are cut off from the rest of what remains of the "civilized" world. People do whatever they can and must to survive...yet in some ways, life goes on as it always has as the survivors learn to adapt, reestablish some sense of order, and return a degree of normalcy to their lives. So it is in a small town in the Pacific Northwest. People have gotten back to the task of living life. From the ashes, many have rebuilt families, established homesteads, trade with one another for the things they need, and even get back to being good neighbors once again...always with the zombie menace casting a long shadow over everything. But then...an unsavory element blows into town and enlists the help of a locally infamous family of violent thugs and rapists, the Gein Brothers, to introduce all the worst imaginable - and some unimaginable - aspects of life to be found in the world of the Zombie Apocalypse into their small community. A squabble between neighboring chicken ranches erupts, and then turns into something much more deadly as undead flesh and bullets start to fly...
