EDUCATION

Lets End Our Literacy Crisis Functional illiterates must constantly suffer serious physical, mental, emotional, medical, and financial problems. Average annual earnings is provably the most accurate indicator of the extent of functional illiteracy. The most accurate and extensive studies of English functional illiteracy ever done proved that the 48.7% of U.S. adults, in the two lowest of five literacy levels, earned an average of only 51.8% of the threshold poverty level—significantly less than poverty level wages! We do not see this much suffering from functional illiteracy because (1) illiterates are very good at hiding their illiteracy, (2) most families have more than one employed adult, and (3) low-income families get help from government, family, friends, and charity. In 2008, illiteracy costs everyone—even those of us who can read—an average of $5186 per year.

Students in over 98% of all alphabetic languages other than English can become fluent readers in three months or less. Most of the 51.3% of U.S. adults who did learn to read English well required at least two years because English reading students must learn every word in their reading vocabulary one at a time because there is not even one invariable rule of spelling and there are 1,768 ways of spelling 40 sounds in English! Nothing done since 1755 has significantly improved the English literacy rate. The solution is to spell our words the way they sound—the way the rest of the world does. It is quite obviously easier to learn the spelling of 38 sounds in English and how to blend them into words than the spelling of the 20,000 or more words in the average person’s reading vocabulary.

The Theory of Absolutism: A Unification of the Theory of Relativity and Quantum Theory For the last 100 years the science world has been trying to unify the theory of relativity with quantum theory. This book presents a theory that unifies these theories by using a philosophical approach to disclose an oversight in the theory of relativity. This oversight is the realization by way of Christian philosophy that all objects, rules, and acts have the characteristic of singularity. All acts and events are singular relative to God and therefore are singular in nature. Hence, although the coordinates and time of an event, in the theory of relativity, have different values relative to different inertial frames of reference, each event is still singular and thus space, time, and matter are absolute. This book proves that all special and general relativistic effects can be explained using an absolute space, time, and matter, allowing the theory to be united with quantum theory. In addition, the theory of absolutism bestows a much greater understanding of the most fundamental concepts in physics such as force, energy, matter, inertia, electromagnetic and gravitational fields; hence the reader walks away with a thorough, more complete understanding of nature.
