Abraham and Obama is the revelation of the birth and contribution of monotheism, which is the belief in one Supreme God. Since the beginning of civilization, humanity imagined and then relied on the existence of Divine Beings that would enrich their lives and solve most of their problems. Throughout history, aside from food and shelter, human beings have spent more of their time and money on religious observances, artifacts and structures than on any otherworldly concern. Today the majority of people on Earth are monotheists. The major monotheistic religions are Judaism, Christianity and Islam. These faiths have chosen Abraham as their first patriarch. In order to comprehend and familiarize oneself with the significance of Abraham's revelation, the author conceived a visionary meeting with Abraham when this unique religious concept was first revealed. It also was at a time in history when humanity was universally polytheistic. In order to obtain this information and give it a high sense of authenticity, the author had to create a visionary encounter with the Patriarch Abraham, who lived about 3800 years ago and have a noted individual take his deposition. The author vicariously chose President Obama, who accepted this opportunity under interesting and possibly dangerous circumstances. Abraham believed that religion must be logical, rational, beneficial and within the grasp and choice of every individual. He believed that salvation comes from within and that heaven and one's afterlife are here on Earth. However, Abraham points out that what is more important than a belief in a single ethical deity is one's behavior toward oneself and others. His conception of monotheism is that conduct supersedes creed and one's actions must be moral and ethically based. One of the reasons President Obama took this visionary assignment was that he wanted Abraham's opinions on the contemporary practices of monotheism and its influence on politics. In order to obtain Abraham's opinions, the author and an imaginary Israeli Antiquities Department, had to find Abraham in a theoretical reflected light frame within the universe. When found, the author secretly gave Abraham a mePad that contained the history of religion and civilization up to the 21st century so he could answer the Presidents questions at the deposition. This resource would electronically vanish after the deposition so no one throughout history would know the future. The author believes that there is a war against religion, which is undermining the fabric of today's society. Abraham responds to this threat by illustrating the fallacy of Political Correctness, a contemporary pseudo religion. Whatever conclusion you come to after reading this tantalizing tome, we hope you will remember and profit by the exhilarating adventure you had participated in 3800 years ago with Abraham, the Patriarch of Judaism, Christianity and Islam and with his famous and irascible interrogator, President Barak Obama. It could be one of the best and most enlightening journeys of your life.
