МАТЬ РОССИЯ

Лидеры семи африканских стран призвали сегодня президента России Владимира Путина прекратить войну в Украине, ссылаясь на “большую нестабильность и вред для различных стран по всему миру”. Это происходит на фоне того, что президент Путин подтвердил начало размещения тактического ядерного оружия в Беларуси. Это не приближает мир к миру. Для большей части мира (включая Запад) нестабильность, о которой говорил президент ЮАР Сирил Рамафоса, исходит, я полагаю, от экономических санкций. Для Африки вред исходит от повсеместного голода. Сегодня я прочитал, что в...

REFLECTIONS

This post will be an ongoing commentary on the Russian invasion of Ukraine with future entries based on Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) as well as other relevant but hard to locate information, some of it first hand. Often an interesting story splashes on the front page of newspapers but then disappears soon after. In this post called Reflections, hope to track what happens to these stories. The Exclusion Zone April 1, 2022 (Updated April 4, 2022) The nuclear power station...

HARMONIE UND HEILUNG IN DER NATUR

Harmonie und heilung in der natur: In den letzten Jahren habe ich den Klimawandel mit wachsender Sorge beobachtet.  In meinem Alter werde ich wahrscheinlich nicht mehr lange genug leben, um die vorhergesagten schwerwiegenden ökologischen Folgen zu erleben, die wir unseren Kindern und Enkeln hinterlassen werden.  Aber ich bin dennoch beunruhigt, weil wir in unserer Blindheit und Gier unseren Mitmenschen und zahllosen anderen Arten, die den Planeten mit uns teilen, schweres Leid zugefügt haben.  Diese unschuldigen Lebewesen wurden aus Gründen der kommerziellen Ausbeutung oder...

THE SLIPPERY SLOPE

One of the more overused terms in the U.S. today is “slippery slope.” It refers to a decision a person might make that has unintended consequences. And, while many consider the term to be fallacious, it is not necessarily so. Missing a day of school because you overslept does not mean you’ll eventually wind up in prison if you extrapolate the likely consequences. But a failing grade for academic dishonesty such as cheating may mean you won’t graduate if your...

ARE WE ALONE IN THE UNIVERSE?

On June 25, 2022 the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released the Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena.  It was a nine-page unclassified document, though there are suggestions in the press that some classified portions were not released.  That may not be a sinister cover-up if so, but rather a normal procedure to protect U.S. military capabilities and tactics. While the report did not reject the possibility of extraterrestrial life as the origin of these encounters, neither did it exclude extraterrestrial...

Metamorphosis

METAMORPHOSIS

At this time of the year in the northern U.S. and southern Canada, the monarch catepillar is starting to eat voraciously in preparation for the next stage of its life. You can easily find them on the leaves of milk weed, perhaps its favorite source of food. Presently, it will retreat into the darkess of a chrysalis, with which it enshrouds itself. When it emerges as a brilliant butterfly, we say that a metamorphosis has taken place. The apostle Paul...

Fish camp

FISH CAMP

In rural Florida there are destinations which are often overlooked by tourists. These are called fish camps. These camps have been described as: “. . . typically family owned [businesses which] give you an experience of being part of the family with all of the benefits of local knowledge. There are fish camps in all eight geographic regions of Florida with a wide variety of fishing and lodging choices.” Therefore, the visitor gets the benefit of learning the local holes and...

Currents of war

THE CURRENTS OF WAR

One of my most popular posts, called “The Point of No Return,” speaks in depth about the currents of the Niagara River as one approaches the famous falls. Let me share a bit of information from that post: You cannot break free at this point. Many of us who have lived even moderately active lives have been in situations at the beach, in swollen creeks and tempestuous rivers, even if only low-lying areas in our town during rain drenched downpours...

DJT: Hammer of God?

THE HAMMER OF GOD?

Last weekend, Donald J. Trump, the forty-fifth President of the U.S. spoke at a scaled down annual convention of political conservatives.  Known as CPAC (Conservative Political Action Committee), the one-time president had received warm welcomes there before.  Last weekend was no exception as candidate Trump was in fine form. Could this man really lead us? Is he a prophet? The hammer of God? If you expected that a leopard can readily change its spots (Jeremiah 13:23), you were likely disappointed.  Mr. Trump launched...

Jesus Revolution

JESUS REVOLUTION

One of the more popular movies this spring is actually a surprise to many, and that’s a movie called Jesus Revolution, which is based on the lives of three ministers who lived and preached during the late sixties-early seventies. It chronicles their response to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit during those times. The ministers are Chuck Smith (played by Kelsey Grammer), Lonnie Frisbee (played by Jonathan Roumie) and Greg Laurie (played by Joel Courtney) all located in Southern California....
