Synopsis Alpha God by : Hector A. Garcia

This book uses evolutionary psychology as a lens to explain religious violence and oppression. The author, a clinical psychologist, examines religious scriptures, rituals, and canon law, highlighting the many ways in which our evolutionary legacy has shaped the development of religion and continues to profoundly influence its expression. The book focuses on the image of God as the dominant male in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. This traditional God concept is seen as a reflection of the “dominant ape” paradigm so evident in the hierarchical social structures of primates, with whom we have a strong genetic connection. The author describes the main features of male-dominated primate social hierarchies— specifically, the role of the alpha male as the protector of the group; his sexual dominance and use of violence and oppression to attain food, females, and territory; in-group altruism vs. out-group hostility (us vs. them); and displays of dominance and submission to establish roles within the social hierarchy. The parallels between these features of primate society and human religious rituals and concepts make it clear that religion, especially its oppressive and violent tendencies, is rooted in the deep evolutionary past. This incisive analysis goes a long way toward explaining the historic and ongoing violence committed in the name of religion.

Synopsis Alpha and Omega God by : Mathewos T. Abera

The book is about the Alpha and Omega God. It is my testimony in regard to the existence and the will of the Deity creator for the entire creation activities. I started to write about this supernatural and omnipotent God from the beginning, which is unknown time. I then proceeded in writing all the way to the time of eternity. In the book, I have talked and tried to prove the creatorship and rulership situation or condition of the Trinity God. I have done this to make peoples of this world believe in existence of the almighty and the ubiquitous God who caused every thing seen and unseen to emerge and exist as they are found now.

Synopsis God's Master Plan for Humanity by : Alpha

God's Master Plan for Humanity presents a collection of one woman's thoughts on being a born-again Christian for over forty years. Her life started simply; she was the fifth child of eight children born to country folks. She was raised in the beauty of nature and then married at the age of sixteen. While she admits that neither she nor her husband was prepared for marriage, it was during this time that she was born again and felt called to marriage. When author Alpha was nineteen, she and her sister rescued their brother from a suicide attempt through a miracle that she could only accept as God's divine intervention. With Christ as her personal savior, Alpha experienced the many benefits of knowing what the word of God can do if it is applied to everyday life. She likens the word of God-the Bible-to a recipe, because following His directions will make a person's life just like the "picture on the box." Many people don't take the time to read the Bible, so Alpha has recounted, through the stories included in God's Master Plan for Humanity, the vital lessons of God's love. The most important actions a person can take in life are accepting and understanding God's plan.
