The Silk Roads of Faith
Post Date: 2017-07-10 09:00:38 by Ada

The Silk Roads: A New History of the World, by Peter Frankopan. Frankopan begins his journey not with trade in goods but trade in faith. Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, Manichaeism, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity (of more than one flavor), and eventually Islam (of more than one flavor) all come into play in this journey, and not always in a peaceful way. As early as the third century B.C, Buddhist principles could be found as far to the east as Syria, with a Jewish sect in Alexandria, Egypt known as Therapeutai bearing unmistakable similarities to Buddhism. In central Asia, forty Buddhist monasteries ringed Kabul. Noted a visitor: “The pavement was made of onyx, the walls of ...

A Canadian Christian educator and pro-family activist asserts that it is insane that Canada's Leftist government has awarded $10.5 million to an Islamic terrorist who murdered a U.S. soldier in Afghanistan.   Omar Khadr admitted to tossing a grenade that killed Sergeant First Class Christopher Speer and partially blinded another soldier during a firefight in Afghanistan in July 2002.Khadr was held at the Guantanamo Bay detention center in Cuba, but former President Barack Obama decided to release him to Canada, where he had citizenship.“This is the insanity of the Left, where they somehow love the terrorists,” the head of CCC insisted. “They love their death ...

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of the Communist Party if you do works for the communist party lest any man should boast. Stalingrad: The City That Defeated the Third Reich, by Jochen Hellbeck. Before continuing with other aspects of this battle I will take a diversion: a look at the language of salvation through the Communist Party; salvation that differed totally from that offered by the Russian Orthodox Church. The Revolution was a catastrophic event for the Church. I only offer superficial (i.e. Wikipedia) background. The final decades of tsarist rule saw an upswing in those who sought a return to the Church and the Christian ...

Is America Still a Nation?

In the first line of the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, Thomas Jefferson speaks of “one people.” The Constitution, agreed upon by the Founding Fathers in Philadelphia in 1789, begins, “We the people…” And who were these “people”? In Federalist No. 2, John Jay writes of them as “one united people … descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in their manners and customs…” If such are the elements of nationhood and peoplehood, can we still speak of Americans as one nation and one people? We no longer have the ...

Pope Francis’ Dark Past As Agent of U.S.-Backed Argentine Military Junta

Murder, torture and “disappearances” were commonplace under the military dictatorship that gripped Argentina in the 1970s. Pope Francis, despite being hailed as a “progressive” figure today, was supportive of the Argentine junta, even aiding in some of the atrocities it carried out. Pope Francis meets ambassadors to the Holy See, at the Vatican, Monday, Jan. 13, 2014. Pope Francis on Monday criticized abortion as evidence of a "throwaway culture" that wastes people as well as food, saying such a mentality is a threat to world peace.

Oklahoma Campus chapel may be of Christian objects Much like Islamic radicals, atheists and secularists want to erase Christianity from the public marketplace. And they are waging their cultural jihad not with bombs – but with lawsuits. This time the target is a college in – where else? – the Bible Belt.East Central University said they will remove crosses, Bibles and other religious symbols from a campus chapel to appease a bunch of out-of-town agitators.It's unclear when the Oklahoma school will commence with the Christian cleansing of the Kathryn P.

Brothers are supposed to be allies; they are supposed to be friends. This is true for spiritual brothers as well as for biological brothers. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always work out that way. Sometimes, brothers become enemies. Think about it: in our War for Independence, brother fought against brother. How many Christians sided with the British Crown and raised arm and bayonet against their brothers in Christ who stood for American liberty and independence? How many Christians were among the British troops who participated in the Boston Massacre? How many Christians were among the British troops who participated in the raid on Lexington and Concord? How many Christians were among ...

Wild Bill for America, also known as William Finlay, a popular author and speaker, was arrested today, June 24, 2017, at a Canadian airport for “smuggling hate speech” on his iPad.

A special event permit for the event was denied by Calgary’s Department of Canadian Recreation, according to an article by CBC News, “on the basis that your organization, and messages it espouses, are hateful.” But event spokesman, Jeremy ...

When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law. . – Frederic Bastiat . A seemingly well-planned and directed campaign against Sharia Law has been taking place in a number of American cities. While the obvious purpose of this effort has been to drum up support for anything anti-Muslim, it does raise some interesting inquiries. In asking “what is Sharia Law, and who would be bound by it?”, much deeper political questions are implicated. An initial question to be asked is “what is law?” A superficial answer is that it is rules set by government that the state will ...

So, Your Daughter Joined the Military

The only thing worse than a Christian young man joining today’s military is a Christian young woman joining today’s military. I recently heard through the grapevine that the daughter of a former student of mine joined the military. Either the Navy or the Air Force, I forget which branch. My guess is that she is about 20 years old. This is horrible. A Christian young woman has no business being in the military. Let me briefly state ten reasons why. > Before I do, let me preface my remarks by saying that many of the reasons why a Christian young woman has no business being in the military are the same reasons why a Christian young man has no business being in the military. ...

Four Islamophobic nations – Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE and Bahrain – have banned immigration from Qatar because of security risks. Aljazeera reported: Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain say they are severing diplomatic relations with Qatar. The Saudi kingdom said it was cutting ties to its neighbour and has pulled all Qatari troops from the ongoing war in Yemen. The kingdom made the announcement via its state-run Saudi Press Agency early on Monday, saying it was taking the action for what it called the protection of national security. The three Gulf states gave Qatari visitors and residents two weeks to leave their countries. Saudi also closed the border ...

Beyond ‘Blowback’: Islam and Terror

The latest attack in London – the third to hit Britain within seventy-five days – is once again provoking a debate about the relationship between Islam and terrorism. On one side we have those who say Islam is inherently violent, and is incompatible with the basic canons of Western civilization. On the other side, we have liberals who say that this is a libel on an entire religion, and that advocates of religious violence are a distinct minority within the Muslim faith. These two views have distinct policy implications: the former would impose what amounts to a Muslim ban on travel to Western countries, and would furthermore mandate State surveillance of mosques and other ...

Out of his patriotic desire to counter militant Islamic groups’ threat to America’s national security, Chris Gaubatz served the United States in an unusual way – he infiltrated the “Muslim Mafia.”“He prayed alongside well-known Muslim Brotherhood figures, including the leaders of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR,” WND reported. “But his objective was not worship … in fact, he was not even a Muslim. Chris Gaubatz grew a beard, went through a ‘conversion’ ceremony at a notorious Northern Virginia mosque and became an intern for CAIR – ultimately gathering first-hand documentation of the group’s subversive aims ...

Memorial Day, as we all know, is not just the official beginning of the summer vacation season. It is a federal holiday that commemorates U.S. soldiers who died in military service for their country. Although it was first observed in honor of Union soldiers who died during the War to Prevent Southern Independence, after World War I, Memorial Day was expanded to include soldiers who died in vain and for a lie in any unnecessary U.S. war. Since the beginning of the senseless and immoral wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Memorial Day has degenerated into a holiday to honor all things military. It ought to be called Military Appreciation Day No. 1. Just like the Fourth of July ought to be called ...

It was a time of great and exalting excitement.

In the literal sense, the West triumphed in the Cold War. Nevertheless, a kind of creeping sovietization has overtaken it as if in revenge. I don’t want to exaggerate, or exaggerate much: We don’t yet fear the midnight knock on the door, we are still free to go where we like, and we are not obliged to spend much of our lives seeking everyday commodities of which there are perpetual shortages. On the contrary, abundance is so general that when we do not immediately find what we want, we feel a sense of grievance, as if our fundamental rights have been violated. In what sense, then, are we being sovietized? I think the process is subtle and all the more insidious for that. I came ...
