Excerpt
“Listen, I know good and well you have knowledge of what’s going on with religion… now don’t you?” He looked at him as if there was some secret to religion.
“No, what are you talking about?”
Michael leaned a little closer.
“You know, for many years there have been many different secret organizations of influential people, who have used religious structure to manipulate humankind. This has been known since the BC era. Didn’t you study this in school?”
Sebastian paused and began looking dazed and confused as if he had no inclination what he was talking about.
“You know very well our Government has not allowed human kind to establish these religions without having some say over what preachers can and cannot teach their congregations. In fact, the whole little underground conglomeration is what keeps you working in that institution of knowledge.’
“Virtually every educational institution in this country is controlled by religious structure. Come one now, you didn’t know that?” He asked.
“Man, I thought you knew. Forgive me; let me make sure no one can hear what I’m saying; don’t want to come up missing.” Michael teased as he started staring around the room, looking as if someone was actually sitting by trying to listen to what he was talking about.
When he continued talking, he said, “Sebastian, I believe our Government is working side-by-side with another living species that has gained power on our earth. It’s been going on for centuries. Besides, it’s written in the Bible. It’s in…um, um; oh, yeah I Corinthians.’
“I’m surprised you haven’t learned about any of this by now. In fact, when you get home look in your Bible, it’s in I Corinthians; I think verse thirty-nine of Chapter fifteen.” Michael explained.
Sebastian was flabbergasted; he’d never read such a thing before, but was excited about finding this truth out.
Meanwhile, Michael continued explaining more about what he had read over the years.

“Listen. Supposedly, during the beginning of the creation of this earth, there were a bunch of angels that fell to earth because they wanted to rule heaven and when they landed on earth they proclaimed it as their own. And apparently, those same angels began reproducing and creating the world we have today.’
“Now, you think about this. Adam was the first man; why did God make man before he made woman?” Michael asked.
Sebastian looked dazed.
“Interestingly, the first angel to fall was Lucifer, who is believed to have brought down more than one hundred and thirty-three thousand other angels with him. That’s why in the book of Genesis it says… in the beginning God said let us make man in our image…that was the angels talking.”
“Michael, you’re talking out the side of your neck; I don’t understand what the hell you’re saying, I’m a World History Professor. Besides, how do I suppose to believe any of this? You could be making this shit up.” Although Sebastian was quite interested in what he was saying; hearing it was making him confused.
“Now, don’t quote me on this, I’m only repeating what has been written. But, apparently somehow; the rest of the world is tied into all of this. I mean, even today, those same fallen angels or whatever you want to call them; still exist and control our religious structures. Why do you think there are so many different religions? Didn’t you study religion in school?” Michael’s entire mood changed while talking to Sebastian.
Although Sebastian had studied religion over the years, he refused to allow what Michael was explaining to him, to deter how he felt about his own beliefs. Hearing what Michael was saying made him flabbergasted. He’d never read anything about fallen angels existing. And hearing it from Michael only provoked him to want to find out more.

“Michael, if there were fallen angels living amongst us, wouldn’t the world be a lot more out of hand; more chaotic?” He asked.
“Listen, when I was younger, I had a very strange encounter with a dude who proclaimed he was a child of a fallen angel; in fact, I never told anyone about this. But the guy was able to disappear and reappear. It freaked me out. That’s why I live my life so freely...
