PHOENIX, May 4, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Are you a lost soul who has never found peace in the worship of a god, faith or religion? Are your prayers never answered? Has your faith never been strong enough to move mountains? In Jehovah the First Godfather, the provocative new book from Carlton M. Morris, Jr., you will finally understand why. Here, Morris exposes the perpetuated myth behind the Bible, God, and religion.
Jehovah the First Godfather is a new perspective of the Bible concerning the true identity of the Biblical God, the creation of man and his relationship with his god, and the distorted history of one family who eventually became a nation. These provocative revelations are amply supported and reinforced by historical facts, ancient artifacts, and the Bible itself. The book sets out to show conclusively that there is no mystery or divine power attached to Biblical story. It is nothing more than a straightforward account of Jehovah's beginning, his descendants and the events and circumstances that involved their relationship with a believed divine entity they worship as a god.
"Jehovah the First Godfather is dedicated to the seekers of truth," says Morris. "It is the key to understand the real purpose of religion, the role of the gods and the place of man. It is only for those who dare seek the truth."
