WHAT ARE HIS BELIEFS?
- He believes in the existence of God.
- There are spirits, often unseen and different from the human.
- All things around him, living and non-living have life, can communicate with each other and with man.
- The heavens are an immense conurbation of stars, each representing the abode of a human spirit, or waiting to for habitation by a human spirit.
- Human don’t share stars, even Siamese twins, otherwise they lose their individuality and remain unborn.
- Stars are recycled endlessly in the universe through divine algorithm and can never be exhausted in numerical strength as habitats of human spirits.
- There is a bottomless pit that harbours the evil and a paradise that harbours the good.

- The earth resources cannot be exhausted or destroyed except by the agency of man.
- The earth uses a combination of complex resources and process to manufacture and assemble inanimate materials in universal assembly lines that have no factory fence.
- God is the energy source and operating system of the earth.
