The Oracle

The Oracle

ISBN: 978-1629996295

The Oracle is probably one of Cahn’s best works. While the book says it discusses the mystery of the Jubilees, which is true, it might be better to say it explains how YHVH puts His kingdom back in order. The answer, not surprisingly, is that this is done with an eerie level of precision–right down to the names of the people involved and what they are and where their feet tread. This is especially true, as one might expect, where the restoration of Israel is involved.

On the theme of the land of Israel being restored, Cahn makes the forceful point that the entire nation was resurrected. Each piece was restored in a way that no nation has ever experienced and each person was working to restore it in ways they did not entirely understand. The first resource that was utilized according to Cahn, was none other than Mark Twain who went to the land of Israel to testify of its bareness and lack of desirability. This witness was Prophetic Fulfillment of a stranger coming to the land of Israel and remarking how not a single blade of grass would be present. At the same time, the city and the main old gate was being discovered by the British and the unearthing of the city of Jerusalem had begun.

It was not a perfect restoration, however, as the UN elected not to recognize the capital of Israel as Jerusalem. Here Cahn begins to build the case for how the presidency of Donald Trump did this, and how the timing was exact in relation to the establishing of the land of Israel. This recognition of Jerusalem being the capital marks the effective end of the land of Israel being restored back to its former existence and the end of the miraculous resurrection of the country–at least in terms of the physical landmass being a political entity.

There are other subplots that Cahn also explores such as how the father of the political movement of Zionism–the idea that Israel should have an actual physical existence or country–factors into these large “turnings of the wheel” particularly as to how the land was bought from the Ottoman’s through a series of events that converged to allow the process to begin.

Another point of interest involves something called a “Dark Jubilee” in the verbiage of Cahn. This is a kind of “shadow Jubilee” process that is a kind of pagan version of the sequence. This exists, Cahn argues, because the Jubilee is simply how creation is ordered and so, it makes senses that there cannot be other blueprints–only a light one and a dark one. Rather like a flashlight, there are things the beam illuminates, and things that casts shadows from the things that are being illuminated.

The way these events are told is also novel as it involves a person having a series of visions and needed to seek out a person called “The Oracle” to help the person having the vision determine the meaning of the vision. This process involves a series of seven doors, and a person typically on a mountain that sends down a Ram that represents what is about to take place for the nation of Israel in one way or another. Each of these visions involves fulfillment that either did happen or is happening and each story shows how the mortal instruments are used to bring about the purposes of the Heavens. If understanding Prophetic Fulfillment is important, it would be hard to find a better primer than this work.

The Confusion

The Confusion

ISBN: 9780060733353

The Confusion is a hard-to-characterize work. One can say, as many have, that it is the follow-up to Stephenson’s Quicksilver, and that is factually true. However, it does not adequately convey the scope and type of work that is put into play in this sequel.

It is probably easiest to say that The Confusion is about a long chain of transactions that are devised as a way for slaves, namely the episodic anti-hero Jack Shaftoe, to become rich. The way in which this richness is to occur snakes through the corridors of Alchemy and into the gold of King Solomon who is thought to be, at least for the sake of the novel, the Greatest Alchemist.

Whereas Quicksilver establishes the philosophical Mercury that becomes the Royal College, The Confusion becomes the domain of Elizabeth from the first novel. The Alchemy has shifted from a type of philosophy to types of currencies and markets. The literal quicksliver, that is to say liquid mercury, is used to mint coins and no less of a personage is called to the Royal Mint in London than Issac Newton. His new job is to run the mint itself and to make sure the currency looks the best that it can.

In the meantime, Jack Shaftoe, who was taken as a slave in the previous work, forms a cabal with his fellow slaves to begin an ambitious type of piracy that they hope will culminate in their mutual enrichment. These piracy trades which touch against the networks that Elizabeth knows all too well eventually culminate in paths intersecting in unexpected ways. At each interval, one is reminded of the quicksilver in one way or another, what it heralds and how it has transformed not only the hard currency but those involved with it following its trail whether through esoteric understanding or avaricious understanding.

The amount of trade discussion in this book is overkill even for a seasoned economist. Generally speaking, one can subdivide the activity into "has gold, loses gold, devises some other partnership or trade to get gold back, loses gold, someone else gets gold that is involved in a trade that Elizabeth is making and very occasionally despises or does not understand the significance of the Solomonic Gold. This goes on for nearly a thousand pages. The history is researched well, and the story has many other activities interspersed such as the various French and British tensions and battles that happen in their respective time periods. There is no doubt that Stephenson lived the writing of this trilogy since the kind of writing done is only the kind that comes from going out and experiencing the world firsthand that one wishes to describe.

If there is a failing, it might be that Stephenson is perhaps too clever at times for his own good. The novel sometimes reads like he is trying to prove something about his own understanding of the subject but the way in which he chooses to do so is heavy-handed. An Oxford professor who uses obscure words to a class of Freshman might be a fitting description. It could also be that he has identified the audience most likely to read this work, and so he has written for those who are of a more academic inclination who are more likely to run across some of the recondite information he has accrued and crafted a story around. It is at times a grinding, irritating read, but resolves into areas that are worth the wait.

Revolution Q

Revolution Q

ISBN: 9781949709599

The solution to identity politics, at least in the case of Revolution Q, is to simply shed your identity. Only by doing this, it seems, can freedom of speech exist. At least, that would be the implication that the author Neon Revolt (itself an invented identity) promotes in this seven-hundred-page tome. This book was crowd-funded via Indiegogo and the figures are anywhere from $50,000 to $160,000 raised for its publishing. For an unknown author, this is quite good for a first book considering some book contracts are only awarded $5,000 for an advance. Though this book was available on Amazon, it is clear that it no longer appears there. Either way, the writer must have been able to make a decent living from this book which shows alternative publishing is possible provided a person can grab the attention of the funding population.

Neon Revolt serves as a valuable eyewitness account of the unfolding of the Q movement. Though he sometimes conflates the terms Qanon with the Q movement, (there are anons and there is Q) it is clear that there is a lot of behind-the-scenes material here that discusses the unfolding of what the thesis of the book advances is the first public disclosure of intelligence secrets by some or many insiders. These insiders have Q clearance, and they are providing posts to people on image boards that are called anons. (their identities effectively become long strings of numbers) This arena allows these disclosures to happen since the nature of the communication method does not allow any one person to be identified as having said or done a thing. What emerges from this is a crackdown on the military-industrial complex from independent researchers who unravel the clues that are given by the insiders who post. (the insiders cannot reveal information that would blow any secret operations)

What follows is, without a doubt, a wild, disturbing ride. In the Bible, it is indicated that the Egyptians were constantly sacrificing children for one reason or another. The dominant reason they did this was to try to weaken the Hebrew people as they feared them. For this, eventually, God judged them with terrifying plagues. Most of the content of these posts from the perspective of Neon Revolt concerns what can only be labeled as Satanic exploitation and murder of children. Far from being a conspiracy, the Bible makes clear this was done. Q posts indicate it is STILL being done and covered up by the “elite” of the nation. Blinders have been placed on the masses to make them complicit in these actions. These are the tenets Neon Revolt witnesses and unfolds and consequently writes about.

Additionally, it appears that whatever Q is working for, he/she/they have the power to shut down supercomputers and rogue AIs that are misbehaving or are being used for other clandestine purposes by intelligence agencies that do not want these disclosures being made public.

The cooperation between researchers is impressive. In one case, the anons can locate a flag that is hoisted at a random location around the world by using some simple mathematics and working together to determine where it is. The anons begin to behave as a kind of public intelligence agency.

The usual deep-state suspects are also present in this work. Most of the material provides evidence for what is now widely known or media-branded conspiracy theories. Pizzagate. Saudi Arabia. Rothschilds. Aliens. The Titanic. It’s all here. What makes this different as a body of work, though, is that there is an evidence trail. Whereas a classical conspiracy theorist is seen as a paranoid person who advances ideas based on propositions that are not well-founded, the Q posts seem to invite people to consider the evidence. Not only should a person consider the evidence, but they ought to carefully use logic reason and deduction! This is a far cry from a traditional conspiracy theorist who “wants to believe”.

Neon Revolt’s position is watching all this unfold and playing a key role in the unfolding by solving specific pieces of the puzzle. A part of the book that reads slowly is about his or her own life, but this disclosure is made so that we understand the “lens” that Neon Revolt is utilizing. This part could have been condensed or left out entirely, but it does add some evidence to the credibility of Neon Revolt as a witness.

What is particularly interesting is that one can find a thousand so-called crackpot books on conspiracies available on Amazon. If it were the case that this book is simply that, why did Amazon feel the need to remove it? If it is all craziness, then sell it and make the money from printing it, and allow people to be crazy as one would with any other book. A person can easily find, for instance, Mein Kampf, so if the concern is that Revolution Q might make people more extreme, how does one justify leaving Hitler’s chief manifesto up for sale?

Indeed, Neon Revolt has a lot to say about the story of Hitler as the clues are unwound. Hitler was more of a puppet is the conclusion. Likewise, Obama is also more of a puppet. Fine. Political books have made accusations about everyone from the very beginning of politics. When Amazon leaves a book up by Hitler that inspired genocide without a doubt, but apparently takes down a book that says, among other things, that Hitler was a puppet, it makes the claim seem stronger that Amazon is working for the same kinds of forces Hitler was! This is especially true if the claims in Revolution Q are inherently crazy! Make the money, and let the crazy be crazy? It’s good business, and we all know Amazon loves money.

The conclusion of the book is a favorite of the reviewer since nobody can argue with it regardless of what they think about the rest of the book. Neon Revolt tells us that if all the above is true, we should certainly repent and live more humble lives and, this is important, live differently as a result. Let’s assume none of what Q said is true. Let’s assume every anon was a paid shill by some three-lettered agency. Has anyone led a good enough life on this Earth that they feel like they have no need of repentance? Whatever ‘conspiracy theory’ gets a person to that point, we need more of them since that road leads to turning back to God. Mein Kampf surely did not lead to turning back to God until terrible consequences mounted and even then people seem to have forgotten the lessons of history. If everything written here is true, then it gives one a very good reason for believing that the testimony of the works of the Earth are usually evil. Without God, people become beasts, and are capable of unthinkable levels of atrocity and deception. Neon Revolt is the person present for the unfolding of this vile tapestry. He/she is a reliable witness as to his/her experience. Everyone who has any interest on either the con or the for side of the Q movement should read this book to better understand what the movement is. That is, providing of course, they find a copy.
