In high school, he played basketball and baseball, and didn’t get any trophies for showing up, but for performance. He worked his way through college, attended Washington State University and graduated with honors in a B.A. in Communications.
Mr. Divis aspired to major in psychology, but abandoned the endeavor. He discovered psychology had serious shortcomings. Psychology was symptomatic, scientific, secular and soulless. Studying mental health/illness issues, values and principles were not only ignored, but disparaged. Disillusioned, he ventured into religions of the world and philosophy. Searching for treasures of truth, Mr. Divis uncovered more fool’s gold than truth. Elaborate, philosophical skyscrapers were constructed on sand, not concrete. Their basic premises could be refuted. World religions were like giant, jigsaw puzzles accidentally dropped upon the floor. Not only were some of the pieces missing, but the proper progression to truth was lost. After college, Mr. Divis began work on the first version of this book, A New Thought, A New Way, A New Day.
Mr. Divis uncovered alarming facts about our educational system. After World War II, German Nazis, cognitive experts and Hitler’s propaganda pros were invited to live in the United States, especially the University of Chicago. Attorneys yearned to learn how to manipulate juries and politicians (mostly attorneys) wanted to know how to manipulate the masses and get elected. In 1956, Nazis cognitive experts reformed our educational system, not by teaching communist principles, but by “conditioning” kids in classrooms. Karl Marx believed the key to overthrowing capitalism was to “training the trainers”. Spiritual Prescriptions exposes the “subconscious sabotage”. His books attempt to fix the subversive damage done to kids, young adults and millennials. The “socializing techniques” have spawned today’s anti-work, anti-capitalism and pro-socialism movements, not to mention today's opiod drug and suicide epidemics.
Mr. Divis worked on the addition to Grand Coulee Dam; taught skiing in Aspen, Colorado; wrote and produced TV commercials in Anchorage, Alaska. He dredged for gold in Washington, California and Alaska, and continued to refine this book. During his 14-year tenure with the Boeing Company, Mr. Divis penned other works including the screenplay, Evil Often Lurks Behind Good Intentions and the books, Relationship Red Flags and The Legend of Old Man McKenzie. He also produced a PowerPoint presentation for small businesses and corporations. Marriagement explains the mindset of passive/aggressive employees and to motivate and inspire loyalty and create productivity.view less
