Genesis cover

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.

 

The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.


The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
 

"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News


A Catholic priest at a military base has been prohibited from even volunteering to run Mass and was told that if he violated that order he would be arrested.

Shutdown fascism: A Catholic priest at a military base has been prohibited from even volunteering to run Mass and was told that if he violated that order he would be arrested.

Even more amazing, “Protestant services continue to take place. Only Catholic services have been shutdown.”

A lawsuit has been filed.

Readers!

 

Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. Your support allows me the freedom and ability to analyze objectively the ongoing renaissance in space, as well as the cultural changes -- for good or ill -- that are happening across America. Fourteen years ago I wrote that SLS and Orion were a bad ideas, a waste of money, would be years behind schedule, and better replaced by commercial private enterprise. Only now does it appear that Washington might finally recognize this reality.

 

In 2020 when the world panicked over COVID I wrote that the panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Only in the past year have some of our so-called experts in the health field have begun to recognize these facts.

 

Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.

 

You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:

 

1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.

 

2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.

    Sounds like its time to get arrested?

    The administration wants to trade one “cult” religion for another “cult” religion?

    Which one would be better? The Marxist cult? The liberal cult? The socialist cult? The Healthcare cult?

    I heard an interesting interview the other day on the Dulles brothers, the book is called The Brothers. I ordered it this morning.These are the guys who activities must be understood to properly understand the world in which we find our selves. Mr. Zimmerman you may want to look into it, these are the guys involved in creating the CIA, involved with JFK, LBJ, Viet Nam, Iran, South America, Banking manipulations, etc., etc. Very thought provoking.

    Reconnection with the Constitution and moving on into the future from there is Americas only hope IMO.

    The purpose of this is to generate animosity between the 2 faiths.

    Sorry Obammy, but this current Pope will never bow to the thrown of your socialist abortion providing healthcare cult. “How many divisions does the Pope have?” is a famous sarcastic quote from another infamous Marxist dictator of which Obammy should heed. If he has any sense of history he should know that the Catholic Church, a imperfect is it is) will prevail over evil, as is has over the Roman Empire through to communism in Poland.
    My bet is on Judeo/Christianity over secular humanism and Maxist socialism.

    Be concerned about this kind of scenario: Secret information comes out about some “outrageous” actions by or on behalf of the United States and its interests that is thought to be immoral and or an abuse of power in the name of power and money. In the outrage that follows, the American people and the people / country’s of the world reject America as “exceptional” or the moral leader of the world and someone like Obama and the people who surround him get to redefine what the new world model should be. (read Marxist / socialist / One World Order model)

    I can see this going on when I weigh where we are at this moment in time and history. Think about it.

    This is tantamount to establishing one religion over another.

    This is denying the military member their freedom of religion.

    This is a childish attack on a group that traditionally does not fight back. He could just as easily have denied the Muslims or Jews but the cry would have even alerted the left to the move.

    The Catholic church has traditionally tried to stay out of politics but at some point we will have to stand up for our rights and religious freedoms. I just hope the church stands behind us when it happens.

  • ‘Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.’

    While the Constitution says Congress shall make no law prohibiting the free exercise of religion, it is implied that the federal government, including the executive branch, are not permitted to prohibit the free exercise of religion in the United States. The difference is the executive branch is charged with enforcing the laws. The Obama administration is clearly legally wrong to prohibit the free exercise of religion.

    The catholic priests will prevail in court. This event is obviously a petty act by the administration, just like the closing of the veterans memorials and national parks.

    The administration and the Democratic Party will reap what it sows, eventually.
