The Souls of Sheep

This is a book of fiction or perhaps a fantasy book because it has to be. It is about spiritual warfare, why it exists, who's involved and how it affects you. After many years of religious indoctrination and then study to understand the purpose of the religious indoctrination, I came to the conclusion that all of the stories and philosophies, whether they be of eastern or western origin, lacked the one most important aspect of any religious theory - why. At best, the answer to the question was hidden in parables that in the end only served to further support the doctrines of the particular religion. All of the ills of this world were then merely the consequences of an inability to follow the doctrines of a particular faith. Since every religion had their own established doctrines that differed significantly from the others, that meant most of the people that have come and gone in this world were doomed before they were born into the culture that practiced the wrong set of doctrines. I personally found this unacceptable and clearly false in my way of thinking. Likewise, the approach of rejecting all religious philosophy in favor of the idea that we are just here by way of some scientific principle and for no other reason other than that seemed equally unsatisfying. After more research, I came upon other notions that while incomplete at least attempted to answer the basic question of why. This book then is a story, a good and entertaining story I pray, offering an answer to the question of why and how and who are the entities involved and what is your part and why you should care and not be concerned with the practice of faith but with life and death and what that's really all about. This is the first book in a series.
