The main exponents of science are or have been profound believers in God, the Creator of the universe. In this work the reader will find hundreds of phrases emitted by many of them that speak of their faith convictions; and of the relationship between faith and its science. They are mostly recognized scientists who believe not only in one God, but expressly in the God of the Bible. With this book the author continues with the task begun in The Lord of the two books to revive an old, but current idea, that the Creator communicates with human beings through two books of His authorship: Nature (general revelation ) and the Bible (special revelation). “The Creator has given two books to the mankind. In one has shown His majesty, in another - His will ... The two books together inform us not only about the existence of God, but also about His indescribable blessings for us. It is a sin to sow among them weeds and discontent”. Mikhail Lomonosov (1711-1765), father of Russian science.

Lust, Vengeance and Non-stop Action Mike Harmon's commando-quality retainers agree: their leader, code-named Ghost, is a peculiar one. An ex-Navy-SEAL, there is no stronghold he cannot penetrate, no target he can't take out. But Ghost is also a man struggling to keep the animal inside at bay and his twisted sexual desires satisfied with a rock-hard integrity and incredible force of will. Now Harmon and his militia have been hired to rescue the daughter of a powerful political mover in America, kidnapped into the Eastern Europe sex trade. Welcome to the Balkan Route: a notorious pathway for human trafficking carved with blood and brutality and passing through Serbia and Montenegro, Croatia, Albania, Macedonia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and Kosovo to the heart of darkness itself: sexual snuff houses where powerful politicians pay to rape and murder young women for kicks. Turns out some of those politicians hail from Washington, D.C. But now the Route is about to be re-Routed, and the balance of power is about to shift dramatically ¾ to the smoking muzzle of one very angry ex-SEAL's M-4. Sometimes it takes a bad man to destroy an even more terrible evil. And the baddest of them all is Ghost. They'll be sorry they made his girls cry. John Ringo, veteran of the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne and fivetimes New York Times best-seller with over a million books in print, delivers another blockbuster military technothriller with the latest entry in his "Ghost" saga.
