Dr. Allen Newton's head was still spinning, and he felt somewhat nauseous. His thoughts seemed foggy as if he were having a bad dream. He tried desperately to say something, anything.

Dr Newton was watching the chain of events unfold as a spectator.

Titled The Way The World Works, the author seeks to reconcile these two purportedly opposing concepts maintaining that they are neither antithetical nor hostile to each other.

The planet and mankind are amazing. To limit ourselves to behaviors as if there is nothing more is contradicted by an accurate comprehensive understanding of the planet and the universe. Basically, love is superior to all and the universe is the entropy necessary for the expression of love. Love itself requires there to be more and Samuel A.

Should mankind fail to give provision to something more for this entirely necessary human emotion, then mankind would fall off into solipsism and anarchy.
