    God Lives, and I Can Prove It , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    Religion is big on faith. Many religions say that there are "mysteries man is not meant to know". We are expected to believe in an all-powerful God because other people tell us to. That’s not good enough. If there is a God we need to know it for ourselves. Religion and Science butt heads. Science says: "If a thing exists, there must be tangible evidence and proof." Religion says: "God demands our unquestioning faith and devotion. Just accept it and don’t be blasphemous." With due respect to both institutions, my view of the universe is this: If God exists, and if He has a plan of action that involves me, wouldn’t it be His responsibility to let me know about it? I think so. Apparently He agrees. He has given me evidence. It’s sitting on the table beside me right now, next to my Bible, and it’s a dead giveaway that God is really there. ungekürzt.

    With some 66 hits under his belt, Tomislav Bokšic, or Toxic, has a flawless record as hitman for the Croatian mafia in New York. That is, until he kills the wrong guy and is forced to flee the States, leaving behind the life he knows and loves. Suddenly, he finds himself on a plane hurtling toward Reykjavik disguised as American televangelist Father Friendly. With no means of escape from this island devoid of gun shops, this country with absolutely no tradition for contract killing, he is forced to come to terms with his bloody past and reevaluate his future, to tragicomic effect. Toxic paints Iceland as an icy netherworld where in spite of peaceful appearances danger lurks - in the guise of terrifying romantic overtures with tough-girl Gunholder, fear of being caught in his blasphemous deception, and the threat of punishment at the hands of Thordur... whose name seems to be pronounced “Torture.” ungekürzt.
