Synopsis

If you are trying to decide whether to read this book or not, let me acquaint you with the HONEST MAN''S PHILOSOPHY. I have taken great pains to make each sentence readable and understandable. This is a new concept when writing about detailed problems of philosophy, theology, or religion. It is easy to read and easy to understand. You can become your own real philosopher! Not only will you be able to understand what is written here, you will be amazed, delighted, and challenged by this philosophy. Philosophy is certainly the most important aspect of life and living. One's philosophy is what determines his happiness (or lack there of). One's philosophy determines what food he eats, how he votes, whom he marries, what friends he selects, what work he engages in and above all, how he thinks and evaluates people and the events of life. In other words, nothing is more important in the life of the individual (or the life of a nation) than the philosophy chosen to guide one's thinking and activity. There are three qualifications you need before you buy or read this book. You must be "Curious," "Willing to think" and "Willing to be honest with yourself." If you believe you know all of the questions and all of the answers, this book may not be for you. To these three, add a forth, "Courage." This book is not intended for the dishonest, or for moral cowards. The HONEST MAN''S PHILOSOPHY is a clear, concise, and complete statement of this philosophy and what it can do for you. It is not new. In fact, it is the oldest, most moral philosophy known to mankind. Every time in the past history of mankind, when this philosophy has been the guiding principle of any group, wonderful things have happened. Among other things, this philosophy is responsible for the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, and the founding of this nation as a Free Republic. The author calls this philosophy, "Clear Thinking." There are other names for it in use today (mostly false and derogatory)

About this title

About the Author:

Thomas E. Blaylock, Jr., has personally experienced the potpourri of western philosophy and religion. He began life in the superstitious and wildly ecstatic religious regions of the Tennessee and North Georgia Mountains. He was saved as a youth and in time joined four different fundamental churches. He was baptized four times, each using different formulas. He is a graduate of FSU and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Add his twenty-four-years experience as a Baptist and Presbyterian minister, to his study of the Cao Dai, Tao, and Buddhist religions in the Orient, and it seems his book, HONEST MAN'S PHILOSOPHY has been writing itself. His mother claims he spoke his first words at eight months old when he pointed out the window and asked, "What is that?" Since that time he never stopped asking "What? Why? How? And When?" When asked if he were an expert on philosophy, his answer was, "No, I am only an expert on wanting to know." When Blaylock wrote about leaving the church he said, "I am glad I saved a portion of my life for myself. I also saved some of me for you." When you read the Honest Man's Philosophy, you will bless the day this book came your way. If you like hard to the point questions about philosophy, morality and religion and if you like to find answers to the major issues of life, you will read and reread the HONEST MAN'S PHILOSOPHY. Few writers have made philosophy as interesting, lucid and challenging, as has Blaylock. Thomas E. Blaylock, Jr. was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 18, 1931 on the day Thomas Alva Edison died. The sign he was born under said, "DO NOT DISTURB." It seems Blaylock is still at peace with himself, and the world.
