In Sirius Mystery, Temple puts forth the most convincing case, based on a wide range of ancient texts and indigenous peoples, including the Dogon Tribe, that man was in fact taught by amphibious beings originating in the Sirius star system...for ...

World Updates August 19, 2005 Israel seeks annual U.N. holocaust memorial day By Bill Rigby UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Israel is urging the United Nations to establish an annual international holocaust memorial day, a top Israeli diplomat said on Thursday. An Israeli draft resolution, which it hopes will be adopted by the 191-member General Assembly during its 60th session opening next month, proposes Jan. 27 as a day to commemorate holocaust victims, marking the day in 1945 when Russian troops liberated Auschwitz, the largest Nazi death camp. More than 30 European countries support Israel's plan, British Deputy Ambassador Adam Thomson said in a letter to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi ...

I once asked somebody if you could really understand this thing. Here is the answer I got: A student was once brought before the master and shown an apple and an orange. After explaining that all things were actually one, and that reality was an illusion, the master held the orange up to the student and asked: "What is this?" The student replied: "They don't have oranges where you come from?". This student passed and became a master. As second student was then brought forward and shown the apple and the orange. The master handed the apple to the student and asked: "If all is one, how is it that this apple is not an orange?". In response the student ate the ...

Serial wars’ never-ending blood purges are now the dominant factor in our American culture. Each successive war is paid for by the dilution of our money, which is no more or less than a hidden tax on the consumer. The twin effects are unprecedented price inflation and a dismal decline in morality that has always accompanied militarism everywhere. The sad Soviet Union is the most recent example of this. History warns us that political wars and monetary dilution are the twin scissor blades of tyranny, and that the middle class and the fixed income consumer are always caught between its razor sharp blades. We Americans are now embroiled in the so-called “war on terrorism” ...

Benedict XVI's Visit to Germany Is His First Foreign Trip as Pontiff COLOGNE, Germany, Aug. 19 -- Pope Benedict XVI, the first German pontiff in 500 years, said "the insane, racist ideology" of Nazism gave rise to the Holocaust and pledged to improve relations between Catholics and Jews during a historic visit Thursday to a synagogue, becoming only the second pope to enter a Jewish house of worship. Benedict, a one-time member of the Hitler Youth who deserted the German military during the waning days of World War II, paid tribute to an estimated 11,000 Jews from Cologne who died during the Holocaust during a visit to a synagogue that was destroyed by the Nazis in 1938 but ...

An Open Letter to Christians by Anthony Wade http://www.opednews.com August 12, 2005 My spirit grieves over this war, this administration and the division that has torn this country apart. I pray daily for the will of God to be done, knowing that he uses all things and people, good and evil, for his purposes. I have tried to express the truth in my writing, but I am constantly faced with people who do not wish to hear the truth. People who claim righteousness through Christ, through who all righteousness comes, yet who espouse most un-Christian opinions. Those are the people to whom I am speaking. How much is enough for you? How many children have to come home in a box before you stop ...

The summer calm before the autumn storm seems a good time to reflect on First Principles. God doesn't get much mention in the mass media or anywhere else for that matter. It seems He doesn't exist or if He does, He has been "discredited." Why is that? Could it be that Western culture is essentially illuminist i.e. one that wishes to substitute the rule of rich men for the rule of God? Who owns the mass media after all? Everything has a creator, from a muffin to the universe. Mankind also has a maker. The operating manual is in each soul. It's hard to comprehend but the world is literally run by satan-worshipers. They want to take away our belief in God as a prerequisite to ...

Andrew Buncombe joins the congregation Here are lights flashing, there is music pumping, there is dry ice fogging the air and everywhere you look there are people on their feet, clapping enthusiastically. There are people all around - to the front, to the sides, behind, above, below. People. More than you can count. People everywhere. Suddenly, amid all of this, on the stage in front, a full band emerges from a sunken riser, rocking out and swaying as the people clap and whoop. There is a choir dressed in purple and blue and they are clapping and swaying as well. It's 8.30 on a Sunday morning and we are here to praise the Lord. "We know ...

LYNCHBURG, Va. - A Jewish organization is calling on the Rev. Jerry Falwell to retract a "vote Christian in 2008" statement made months ago in a letter raising money for his ministries. The criticism of Falwell appeared Monday on the Web site of the Anti-Defamation League, a group organized in 1913 to fight anti-Semitism. Falwell, founder of Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va., and Moral Majority, included with his mass fundraising letter for Falwell Ministries a sticker that reads, "I Vote Christian." Abraham Foxman, the Anti-Defamation League's national director, said Falwell's statements are "directly at odds with the American ideal and should be ...

Scientists consider the parchment manuscript to be one of the 50 copies of the Holy Scriptures ordered by the Roman emperor Constantine Scientists involved in digitization of the Codex Sinaiticus claimed that the copy of the famous manuscript would appear in the Internet in the nearest future. It may be possible that after publication of the ancient text all of the confessions will have to reconsider their dogmas. The fact is that Codex Sinaiticus includes a full text of the Bible. It contains the oldest version of the New Testament in the world as well as the Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint. The latter includes the books, which are now considered apocryphal. The ...

Americans watched in amazement yesterday when there appeard on their television screens the image of the High Mullah of the American religious extremists, Rev. Pat Robertson himself, as he prayed earnestly for more vacancies on the Supreme Court, presumably so that more people like John Roberts could be appointed in order to, by judicial activism, convert the entire nation to the Rev. Robertson's brand of Christianity. It is common knowledge that Supreme Court Justices are appointed for life and vacancies occur only upon the death or voluntary retirement of those who are presently serving. Now to "give the devil his due", Mr. Robertson did not pray for the death of any one of ...

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Archbishop William Levada, soon to be the highest ranking American at the Vatican, was welcomed to his final Sunday Mass here by thousands of admiring parishioners, a few critics and a subpoena compelling him to testify about sex abuse in the Roman Catholic Church. Levada was handed the subpoena minutes before he began the procession to the altar at St. Mary's Cathedral. It requires him to give a deposition Aug. 12 concerning sex abuse allegations against priests in the Portland, Ore., Archdiocese, where he was archbishop from 1986 to 1995. The 69-year-old archbishop spoke to a standing-room-only crowd of 3,000 in the cathedral Sunday, telling them he would miss ...

"This woman is a witch!" the men announced to the villagers, said Manjhi, 36. She said they tied her ankles together and locked her in a dark room. "They beat me with bamboo sticks and metal rods and tried to pull my nails out. 'You are a witch, admit it,' they screamed at me again and again," ...

"It's going to cost you your soul." It's been a while since the world's fate seemed to hinge so thoroughly on what people think of each others' religious beliefs. And although Mormons aren't visibly involved in ...

But after two seasons of making sitcom pilots that didn't land on the fall schedule, I needed a new religion to further my Hollywood career.

ORLANDO, Fla. --The most divisive issue in American Protestantism will move to the forefront again this week as the 4.9 million-member Evangelical Lutheran Church in America takes a key vote on what role gays should have in the denomination. About 1,000 church members will meet beginning Monday in Orlando, where they'll decide whether to ordain gays who are not celibate and whether to bless same-sex unions. No split is imminent. Conservative Lutherans have planned a November meeting to consider forming an association of like-minded churches -- but within the ELCA. Still, few Lutherans believe church members can reconcile their conflicting views of what the Bible says about homosexuality, ...
