Wonderfully Made and Exceptionally GiftedEugene L. Moore, Ph.D. is a speaker, educator, prolific writer, consultant, world traveler, lifetime learner, and mentor who is committed to helping others maximize their gifts to ensure they are living their best life. His legacy is not predicated on his individual accomplishments but his ability to propel others forward. His coined phrase surmises his compassion which simply states, "Giving works for me!"Eugene L. Moore II (EJ) is competitive and compassionate. He loves his friends, family and of course God. He has so many dreams and like most kids has a spirit of invincibility. Whether he is playing a word game with his father to bolster his vocabulary, attempting to startle his mother as she enters a room or emulate his older brother, he is always smiling. EJ is a kid filled with joy and this book is an example of his desire to inspire kids to never stop dreaming, for success comes to those who are relentless in their pursuit of excellence.The playground is a place where kids have fun just running around and being among their peers. The classroom is where they engage in learning and begin to build their intellectual competence and inquiry. The home is where their affirmation comes from that gives them the boldness to conquer the world. For children whose homes are unstable, they can receive love from mentors or other outside resources. In church is where kids can learn that they were wonderfully made and exceptionally gifted. So you see, having fun on the playground, learning in the classroom, receiving love in the home or from others, and knowing that God's creation is not junk can provide all kids with the confidence to chase and catch their dreams.
The first volume of Greed Unbound is about the ways elites siphoned off value from workers in the early Neolithic farming and herding societies. In the broadest terms, it highlights the consequences of greed in officialdom, the offices of kin groups, cults, secret societies, and chiefdoms. Greed in all of these groups has consistently led to severe inequality. Prior to the Agricultural Revolution inequality had been held in check, being restricted to such things as respect for the elderly and male chauvinism. In the mild inequality of the Long Paleolithic, no one person or faction could siphon value from the labor of others. But all that changed once food was stored in farming societies, allowing greedy chiefs to exploit the common people-in stark contrast to the egalitarian nature of life before the development of stored wealth. With the change, exploitation flourished, as did warfare and mystical institutions that functioned to mislead and appease the masses.
