An Introduction to God. As a rough rule of thumb, at least with regard to the Torah, Prophets, and Psalms, I have found that the text of the oldest manuscripts (those found in Qumran dating from the first, second, and third centuries BCE and first century CE) differs from that found in the Masoretic which serves as the basis of our translations (the oldest reasonably complete Masoretic Text (from masoret. Which means to be in compliance ) dates to the 11. By way of proof, you may be surprised to learn th...

An Introduction to God. As you are now aware, this Introduction to God. Makes no accommodation to garner popular support, and it was not designed to appeal to a religious audience. It seeks to reveal, examine, and consider the pictures God has painted in His Word. The reasons this must be done are many. It is vital that people know they have been deceived by those who have preyed upon their devotion. So, by undermining the building blocks upon which the most popular religions were conceived, we w...It be...

Later it would be reported that as he finished his inspirational speech, the sun broke through the clouds, a rainbow appeared in the sky, a white dove fluttered in from nowhere and landed upon his shoulder like a blessed omen from on high, and we all said, “Wow.”. The rumor mill worked fine, of course. What it lacked in accuracy, it made up for in speed—and none of us knew quite what to believe about the amazing things we’d heard. Q&A and all that. Rex Scatena stood on a retaining wall and welcomed the g...

Broke Craig sat staring at our checkbook. It was late. Everyone else had gone home. He felt completely alone. Calling this a problem would have been wildly optimistic. We were a week from being out of business. Sure, plenty of vendors had agreed to sponsor presentations, but that was not the same as saying, “Here’s a check to get you started.”. That was the essence of capitalism, was it not? Bill gritted his teeth. “What I keep hearing is, ‘We have no established policy for selling on the...Ldquo;Exactly...

We have taken the liberty of changing the names of many of the characters in this book. Notable exceptions include the Company’s five founders and its two post-IPO CEOs. For obvious reasons, we have also used the actual names of the public figures mentioned in these pages, especially those that sought to soil the company others built for their own personal gain.

The Price of Success. Ldquo;Howdy, pardner! Rdquo; the voice boomed out of the conference phone. Ldquo;Hi, Bill.” Craig brightened, recognizing his friend’s voice. “How are ya and where are ya? Ldquo;Just leaving the 18th green at Hilton Head,” Hunt said sheepishly. “Although I’d rather be there with you.” Even with the crackle of Bill’s cell phone, we could detect a twinge of emotion in his voice. Ldquo;You’re right,” Bill responded. “We built it together.”. It all started there.”. Ldquo;So tell ’...

A Brave New World. Ldquo;It’s now or never,” Joe said as he searched Dan’s mind. “I’ve always been a UNIX guy, but I’m being pulled by the dark side of the force. Tell me again why we should build this thing on NT.”. Dan was a genius when it came to networks, servers, firewalls, and hosting facilities. Most techs fixate on a single operating system or platform; they’re either carnivores or herbivores. But Dan was omnivorous. “Faster and cheaper,” was all he said. Ldquo;It’s inefficient, Joe.
