Damien's Time - Introduction

Greetings,

I am Damien.

    I am the Damien of religious lore. I am the one that you have been told of. I am not the one that the story tellers would have you believe that I am. My life has led me to this point. The history of the world has led me to this point. I am here to clear up all of the lies that you have been told about me. I am here to clear up all of the lies that you have been told about the history of the world. I am here to let the truth be known.
    I am writing this little introduction to let everybody reading this know exactly what they are fixing to read. This book is my biography, but being who I am, it is also a history of the world. This history will be like no history that you have ever read before. I will not tell you the lies that the historians, the governments, and the organized religions of the world have told you in the past. I will challenge all history that you have ever been told before. I will challenge you religious convictions. I will challenge everything that you have ever known. I will simply be telling you the truth.
    I know that the history buffs out there reading this will not believe a single word of what will be written within these pages. I accept that for what it is. I just hope that they remember that history has always been written by the winners. The "good guys" always win, because that is how the winners spin it after they win. I am giving you the chance to see history from another view point. I will let you decide which side you want to believe.
    I know that the religious of the world will not believe me due to the fact that I am challenging what they have been taught is the ultimate truth of the world. I would just like to point out that many religious deity will appear in these pages, although they will probably not be acting in the way that the true believers in their faiths would expect them to. All I can say about what I write in this regard is that I write either what I have seen for myself, or what I have had told to me by what I believe to be very reliable sources. I do not really expect to win over those who are the so called "true in their beliefs". I would just like to hope that most of you will at least have enough of an open mind to listen to my side of the story before you make your decisions on what really happened.
    The next group of people that I want to address will be the ones that I like to refer to as "the modern day open minded citizen." These will be the people who do not believe every word that their government tells them. I commend you for rising above the mind washed masses in this way.  These will also be the people who while they might believe in a deity, they do not follow an organized religion. Again, I commend you for rising above the masses and thinking for yourself. The reason these people will not believe, is because of who I am. I am Damien. I am the son of Lucifer. I am the bringer of the end of the world. I can not be trusted. To these people I just ask that you give me a chance. Nobody, not even me, is completely evil. I just ask you to read my story, and then judge for yourself.
    The last group that I want to address will be the hardest to convince out of all of the groups that I have mentioned. They have the simplest belief, but it will be the hardest to change. They will pick up this book and as they are reading it the story will be too unbelievable for any of it to be true. Any future publishers of this story will probably fall into that category. I may have to publish it as fiction just to get my story out there ! For those of you who can not believe what you are about to read, just try to remember that there are things in the world that you can not understand. Accept these things as they are, for they don't really care if you believe in them or not. I do hope that the non believers will still read the story that I am about to write, at least that way it will be in their memories.
    For those of you who do not fall into any of these groups, and are of the world's truly open minded individuals, I thank you. I hope that you will read this book, and learn from it the truth of the world as it really is.

                                                                                                   

Thank You For Your Time

                                                                                                               
Damien
