Chapter 1.5.2 My Awakening and Break from Institutional Religion


1.5.2 My break from Institutional Religion:


In the 1970’s I had a series of spiritual experiences that began the true awakening to who I really was… a child of God. In John 4:20 we are told the following:

“If a man say I love God and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?”

This simple verse made me realize that modern religion did not know the true heart of GOD. Upon returning to America in 1970 as a student of electrical engineering at Wayne State University, I decided to seek out the truth of GOD outside of my traditional faith. I studied different religions and mystic philosophies to understand their view of GOD. 

Suddenly I noticed that as I searched for God he too was reaching out to me. My first spiritual experience was associated with an allergic reaction to penicillin. After being treated with penicillin for an insect bit I had my first near death experience. My body dropped to the ground in the hospital moments after the injection, but suddenly I was awake in another body looking at my physical body on the ground.   This experience and several others after that made me clearly realize that consciousness exist in a spiritual body not the physical body. A second experience linked to cerebral malaria taught me that human beings have spiritual senses beyond the five physical senses.These two experiences served as my scientific evidence of life after death, so I was now 100% percent convinced that traditional religion did not know the true nature of God. While continuing my search for the Truth, I was blessed to returned to America in 1977 to pursue my graduate studies in Electrical Engineering in Boston,Massachusetts.

My personal profile has been to work professionally for national peace, unity, development, security and reconciliation in Liberia so that a new Liberia may rise in the next decade 2030; a Liberia rooted in good governance with political space for co-existence, economic co-prosperity and the spiritual common good of all people… a new liberated country without borders and barriers… I hope to use my professional skills as a retired Assoc Prof. of Electrical Engineer, a Project Engineer, a Peace Consultant and a former TRC Commissioner, in this ongoing endeavor”.

Wikipedia's definition of IGNORANT is as follows:  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignorance "The word "ignorant" is an adjective that describes a person in the state of being unaware (here we can define unaware as being unconscious of certain reality simular to EGO-Consciousness), and can describe individuals who deliberately ignore or disregard (reference to Atheists) important information or facts, or individuals who are unaware of important information or facts (reference to Agnostics). Ignorance can appear in three different types: factual ignorance (absence of knowledge of some fact), object ignorance (unacquaintance with some object), and technical ignorance (absence of knowledge of how to do."

Abstract to Scientific Godism: A New Theory of Everything

This Blog was created as an archive of my research and exposition on the process of creation from the viewpoint of God. It is my hope to develop through this research a new view of reality that will harmonize with science from God's viewpoint; thus my focus is to systematize our understanding of reality beyond faith and religion. I foresee a future when mankind will awaken to the universal realization we are not descendants of Apes linked to a random process called evolution, but rather we are the Noble and Divine Children of a loving and supreme creative intelligence (still in our Mother's womb spacetime), having diverse names throughout history, but linked to a divine Oneness.  With the scientific systematization of all knowledge (as a Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil), I hope to see a new paradigm shift in science and engineering education, quite like the current vision of STEM or STEAM education, and I believe this cannot happen until we truly understand th
