Is Charged With Séxual Assault.
Cardinal George Pell is of course claiming to be innocent of all wrong doing.
Its all a conspiracy I tell ya !

Lets see how the "new revolutionary pope" handles this one.

My bet is;
Meet the new boss, Same as the old boss !

If you have a woman or a son or daughter you can not put them above God. If you do you are guilty of idolatry. In our society it is noble to be a selfless man who does everything for his loved ones and puts himself second. Take a step back and think about what is correct. God must be put first. If you are doing something that shows you do not trust God or that you approve of someone who is going against God you are headed for possible damnation. Look at what happened to Job. If everything and everyone is taken away from you what will you have left? Answer your relationship with God. If you put people or things above God you are not worthy of the kingdom of heaven It seems many are afraid of suffering. It is better to be faithful to God and suffer than to be a self pitying victim.! With Jesus you can get through anything and have a peace which transcends all understanding !

Yesterday I posted comments on blogs stating that in my opinion people have been brainwashed as far as religion goes, today I read that after a break of 5 years the Turin Shroud is to go back on view, now as I recall the item was proved to be a fake & not even the church claim it to be real, in which case case why have a million people booked to go & see it why would anyone want to view a dirty old sheet from person or persons unknown

Although Kim is speaking of a one on one relationship this video works as well for our resident narc. The more you feed the beast the better the beast enjoys it. I pray for her and the narcs that I've know. It's not their fault, their soul has been compromised.

I realise it's very hard to understand if you've never had the 1 on 1 contact with a narc, but it's as real as..wait let me think of a comparable ...Trump and Hillary.....both with compromised souls....

It's a ten minute video (from a narc's perspective) that will be invaluable to all of you in your lives...

No empaths or enablers needed

write blogs about muslims...one after the other...spread hatred about them..one after the other..then ill say I don't hate all muslims, just wanna nuke them...then people will disagree with me..and so ill delete those bloggers because they have an opinion..the correct one.

Then what I will do is say those bloggers are racists..then because my sanity is getting out of hand and very few people are commenting now because it boring..ill close that blog.

Shockingly true. Finally someone in the Muslim world sees and expresses the truth.



Way to go Yousef Al-Husseini.

The TRUTH hurts but for humanity's sake we must face it and do something about it.

I hope peace will reign for the whole of humanity.

The specific goal of Hirshi, is to remove any excuse that causes these terrorism.



Explain why the millions of non terrorist who stood in support if the killing of Hebdo

Explain the caliphation movement, history indicates it's continuum. There wasn't a single Muslim in the middle East in 600 AD.

Explain the above link that promotes killing of infidels by a preacher. Don't tell me the audience were only terrorists in the making.

Again, there are goid people in every religion, they are not the ones that are persecuted.

Then again, the San Bernardino incident, killed 14 innocent Americans.

Born and raised in the US, he wasn't showing any terrorism inclinations, two years before the incident, he went to Pakistan abd married a terrorist.

The point I'm making, we can't be sure who is good and a terrorist one.

Trump for that reason wants to stop Muslim coming to the US. I can't agree more.

how many of you know that God is Good?
Jesus said :only God is Good.So Goodness come from God to Angels and to men.
So man need trust God and believe and obey.
God created every thing good, but But the evil corrupted so many things and made bad.
so is when suffer started.
man need believe and obey commandments of God.
what you think abut this?

The other day, one of my friends posted the following on their wall: "Your beliefs don't make you a better person - your behavior does."

For me, that made a lot of sense. It isn't what we believe that defines us, it's how we behave. I understand why the anti-religious become so incensed at some of the religious. There have been so many things done in the name of God that are so wrong and un-Godly that one wonders how people can possibly justify it to themselves, nevermind anyone else.

But, being human, we can and do justify anything and everything we do, no matter how wrong it may be to others, as long as it satisfies our own wants.

Personally, it doesn't matter to me whether someone believes in God or not. It does matter to me when someone espouses their beliefs but their behaviour is contradictory. It does matter to me when beliefs are used to restrict any freedom. It does matter to me when beliefs are used to justify war, greed, hate and separatism.

I've known people that are overtly religious that use God as an excuse and a crutch. Their lives aren't all they want them to be, because God wants it that way. It's God's will. Nothing is their fault or their responsibility - that's what God wants.

I do take issue with that. If God gave us free will, then God doesn't make us do anything - we make the choice to say and do what we do. It's not God's will - it's our own. We are responsible for how we feel, what we do and what we say. We are responsible for what we think. We aren't responsible for what others feel, think, say or do - only for ourselves. But don't you enjoy being around people that are happy, up-lifting and motivating? Don't you enjoy spending time with those that find the positives in you and don't you find that if you're around positive people, that it's easy to see the positives in others and in life?

Personally, if someone is de-motivating, negative and insulting, I don't care what they believe - they aren't fit to be in my life. I'm only here once, and if I can help make this world a better place by giving whatever I can to others and helping others to feel good about themselves and to be the best they can be, and by being the best I can be, then I will have lived.

As humans, we have the capacity to lift each other up and encourage each other to be the absolute best we can be. We can choose to see the strengths we each have, to encourage those strengths, and to overcome our weaknesses. We also have the ability to rip each other to shreds, to stomp on anything positive, and destroy each other, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically.

And it doesn't necessarily take a belief in anything to do that. For me, what people believe is simply an opinion. It's neither right nor wrong, it just is. What they believe is right for them. Just like what I believe, is right for me - as long as no one else is being harmed. Spirituality is not a competition. No one likes to have beliefs shoved down their throats, regardless of what those beliefs are.

It becomes 'wrong' when they attempt to force their beliefs on the rest of society. It becomes wrong when people hold themselves as 'better' than others because of their beliefs, but behave in a manner completely diametrically opposed to what love, kindness and compassion is. It becomes wrong when some people are excluded, and that exclusion is justified in the name of their beliefs.

Those that believe in religion find what they need in it and it works for them. I respect their commitment to it. Another common meme is 'Religion is for those who are afraid of going to hell. Spirituality is for those who've already been there.' This implies that religious people are not spiritual, which is completely untrue. As with any belief system, there are those that can quote beliefs, but don't actually practice them, and those that let their behaviour be their spiritual indicator.

Bottom line? Talk is cheap - behaviour tells all.

We hear so much talk and see the repercussions of the so-called formal and accepted religions. We are subtly influenced from an early age with, Protestantism, Catholicism, Buddism, Taoism, Islam and a whole host of other brain-washing ways to be the best person we can be; with the help of God. In light of the revelations (excuse the pun) regarding the Catholic and English churches long history of child abuse, coupled with the exploitation of vulnerable people in Ireland within the Magdalene laundries, is it time to look at alternative religious ways to find salvation?

Some animals can do amazing things, but no matter what an animal’s speciality, there is usually something else that is almost as good at it. A cheetah can leave most other animals standing but a gazelle can give it a run for its money. With humans and their brainpower, though, nothing even comes close. Because of this huge gulf between us and all other living creatures we tend to think of ourselves as being very special. And we are very special; our immensely superior intelligence has enabled us to dominate our world unchallenged. Does our position at the top of the pecking order entitle us to think that nature, the Universe or God -if you must- has marked us out for a singular destiny?

In reality we seem just as subject to natural phenomena as everything else. We are no less susceptible to illness and disease than any other living thing; we are affected by gravity and every other law of physics just like anything else is. We die and decompose just like any other organism. Yet, many of us believe we have an exclusive union with some sort of spiritual dimension, and think that after death something wonderful is in store for us.

But why do we believe these things when the logical faculties we rely on every day to survive, and on which we are completely dependent, have to be suspended in order to do it? Besides intelligence, we also have imagination to tempt us into promoting hope over experience; perhaps that’s why some of us prefer not to settle for the more mundane reality.

The beliefs of some are fantastic and varied, and, no doubt, can be life enriching. I’m not at all spiritual, that’s probably why I don’t get it when people talk about souls and cosmic energies that need to be resonated with. Besides, I think our world and nature is already fantastic without projecting a mystical dimension onto it.

I was reading how trees communicate with each other; not by some sort of mystical telepathy, but through the mycelia of fungi and the intricate networks they create in the soil. Not only is that fantastic, it’s real and can be empirically verified. That’s just one of countless amazing discoveries, and we are learning more all the time. Who needs mythology? There’s nothing wrong with revering nature, but why the need to credit it with supernatural qualities to make being in harmony with it feel worthwhile. It’s good to love nature, to be in awe of it and strive to be in tune with it; after all, we are part of it and no more or less important than any other part of it.

Just my perspective.
