GREAT!!! K’S PAIN IS GONE!

9/8/2010

 FYI. K has gone to see the Neurosurgeon today and have the stimulator installed permanently tomorrow.  Isn’t amazing what they can do now to help people like K with the pain and make it go away. When the temporary one was installed, I will never forget the expression on his face when the pain was gone, in fact it brought tears.

 Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, Your Brother, C.

 Just as sincere ministers and believers search to understand and experience their God, thanks to the committed people in science and medicine, etc. who study the Works of the Ultimate Cause to benefit us in our everyday lives.  I believe that as we share our spiritual energy to those that need it wonderful things can happen.  THANKS TO THE ETERNAL PRESENCE!  You raised a wonderful person named Kevin.  I’m also thankful that we can be open and honest with each other AND FOR LETTING US SHARE IN K’S SITUATION.

 ALSO, THANKS TO ALL MY UNDISCLOSED RECIPIENTS WHO WERE MINDFUL AND CONCERNED ABOUT K.

 WOW K!   I ADMIRE YOUR TREMENDOUS COURAGE AND BELIEVE THAT THOSE WHO HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM TO HELP WILL, WITH COMPASSION AND EMPATHY, BE OPEN TO THE ETERNAL PRESENCE THAT HAS ENLIGHTENED THEM TO THIS POINT, WILL SUCCEED.  

Opposite the title page of Darwin’s Origin of Species appears the following quotation:

‘To conclude, therefore, let no man … think or maintain that a man can search too far or be too well studied in the book of God’s word, or in the book of God’s works; divinity or philosophy; but rather let men endeavor an endless progress or proficience in both.’

The author is Francis Bacon, and the quotation is from his 1605 book The Advancement of Learning. Here is the classical statement that there are two ways of understanding the character of God, through the Bible, and through the world he has made.

 Sending my energy through the ETERNAL PRESENCE to you,

BIBLE MORE VIOLENT THAN KORAN? CODE RED ALERT!!!!!!!

BURNING THE KORAN COULD CAUSE MORE TERROR AGAINST US SOLDIERS AND AMERICANS!
WILL WE ALLOW EXTREME FUNDAMENTALISTS ON BOTH SIDES TO TERRORIZE MORE PEOPLE?
 
(source cited)
In the minds of ordinary Christians – and Jews – the Koran teaches savagery and warfare, while the Bible offers a message of love, forgiveness, and charity. For the prophet Micah, God‘s commands to his people are summarized in the words “act justly, and love mercy, and walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8). Christians recall the words of the dying Jesus: “Father, forgive them: they know not what they do.”

 But in terms of ordering violence and bloodshed, any simplistic claim about the superiority of the Bible to the Koran would be wildly wrong.

 In fact, the Bible overflows with “texts of terror,” to borrow a phrase coined by the American theologian Phyllis Trible. The Bible contains far more verses praising or urging bloodshed than does the Koran, and biblical violence is often far more extreme, and marked by more indiscriminate savagery. The Koran often urges believers to fight, yet it also commands that enemies be shown mercy when they surrender.

  Some frightful portions of the Bible, by contrast, go much further in ordering the total extermination of enemies, of whole families and races – of men, women, and children, and even their livestock, with no quarter granted. One cherished psalm (137) begins with the lovely line,

 “By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept”; it ends by

 blessing anyone who would seize Babylon’s infants and smash their skulls against the rocks.
