Man is born free, yet is everywhere in chains. How did this happen? Insurrection Resurrection provides an answer. In this dark satire, founding father Thomas Jefferson mysteriously appears in modern America to incite a second American Revolution, out of revulsion for contemporary politics. Its a tale of Alice in Wonderland surrealism, Catch-22 farce, and Atlas Shrugged philosophical controversy. The antagonist is a tyrannical politician known only as the Head Honcho. He controls the puppet strings of the U.S. government with the guile of Nixon, the subterfuge of J. Edgar Hoover, the scandal of Clinton, and the mystery of the X-Files Smoking Man. Hes a ruthless, power-mongering juggernaut who continuously pursues reelection with animalistic Neanderthal fervor. He believes in government of the politicians, for the politicians, and by the politicians. He spews out innocuous slogans, unkeepable promises, contradictory positions, and pompous deceit. Hes embroiled in a ceaseless witch-hunt for a mysterious rebel known only as the Insurrectionist, who is actually the resurrected Jefferson. The protagonist is Freeman, a career bureaucrat who plods along as the Head Honchos public relations stooge. Apathy and purposelessness haunt him. He unwittingly becomes associated with Jefferson, who gradually enlightens him about the absurdity of todays politics. Through the unique perspective of the resurrected Jefferson, it becomes apparent that the current American government is as corrupt and oppressive as the British monarchy we revolted against two centuries ago. Astonished by the opulent lifestyles of American politicians, the enormity of the federal government, and its utter disdain for ordinary taxpayers, Jefferson organizes tax revolts, exposes corrupt politicians, and recruits citizen militias. The Head Honcho counters with propaganda, censorship, murder, and war to divert attention from his malfeasance and a comic series of governmental malfunctions. Blood begins to flow in a crimson river all around him. His behavior exemplifies a government run amok as he violates civil rights and turns the bureaucracy into an engine of surveillance to hunt down the Insurrectionist. His surreptitious cover-ups, obstructions of justice, and deceptions lead to a constitutional crisis and a public tidal wave of revulsion. He creates a new state religion called Ismism, a generic philosophy with zero principles, all of which are politically correct. This gives him lots of room to maneuver while avoiding clashes with facts. To stave off mounting rebellions, the Honcho enacts the Insurrection Act, which gives him wartime powers to apprehend and prosecute suspected rebels. The Act exemplifies the unadulterated goal of all governments, which is self-preservation at any cost to individual liberty. Still, the Insurrectionist eludes him. Freeman becomes aware, through his friend Jefferson, that the American experiment has edged, day by day, month by month, year by year, away from its original premise, and now threatens the American people with a bureaucratic leviathan more imposing and intrusive than all previous examples put forth by history. It becomes clear that when government makes peaceful revolution impossible, violent revolution is inevitable Utterly despondent, the Honcho reminisces about days gone by when kings were kings, serfs were serfs, and everyone politely stayed in their place. He travels back in time to England in 1775, where he becomes the tyrant King George to try to prevent the original American Revolution from happening, in order to make America a more hospitable place for tyrants in subsequent centuries. Unfortunately, theres so much inertia behind the American drive for independence from British bureaucratic oppression that hes powerless to stop the revolution. Americas violent revolt creates humanitys first separation of church and state, and establishes hist

Excerpt from The Rejected Stone: Or, Insurrection Vs; Resurrection in America Lord Bacon recommends that all important affairs should be committed first to Argus with a hundred eyes, and afterward to Briareus with a hundred arms. "Things," he remarks, "will have their first or second agitation. If they be not tossed upon the arguments of counsel, they will be tossed upon the waves of fortune." The hundred arms have laid hold on the American question: whether the hundred eyes have done, or are doing, their work, is doubtful. The daily press brings to each household its presentation of "the situation," in a military aspect; but the ever-developing moral and historical situation is much neglected, or, for reasons of state, suppressed. "Make bright the arrows," said the Hebrew prophet. In this age, still more in this controversy, every weapon must think, every missile be winged with intelligence, every shell be fused with fire from God's altar. It is with a profound conviction that the event of this war is to depend more upon the impregnability of principles than that of fortresses, and that it must be fought from a higher plane than any yet occupied by our forces ere it can be won, that I offer the following suggestions and discussion to the American people.

The Christian celebration held on Easter Sunday is the celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection occurs after a violent and horrid crucifixion. The crucifixion came as an insurrection to the law of sin and the law of Roman Empire at the time. There was nothing cute or tasty about the first easter celebration. But it was the proof that what Jesus said was true. Some Roman soldiers were told to fabricate stories. They were told to say that Jesus body stolen by his followers. Unfortunately, for the Roman government the stories were debunked by some guards. Over 500 people saw Jesus after his resurrection. There is too much evidence for any knowledgeable person to believe that Jesus did not truly resurrect as he promised that he would before his death on the cross. Many people today refuse to believe because of the consequences of such a belief. It would mean there is life after death. It would also mean that what Jesus said about sin and judgement are true too. It is easier for some to believe a lie than the truth. Because believing the truth has consequences. The reason I write this book is explain why the crucifixion and the resurrection are necessary. I will have to take you back to the beginning of time to do that.
