Europa quo vadis 2005?
Björn Freiberg1
Abstract
Starting with a definition of transformation, the presentation takes a look at the recent developements in the European countries after the French and the Dutch rejected the European constitution. It tries to connect developements in France(the „October riots”), Germany(the 2005 election), Great Britain( the London Terror attacks, Tony Blair in trouble?) and their influence for the Foreign Politics especially towards the Middle European Region and its meaning for the power relations in the European Union.
1. Definition of "transformation"
Besides the fact that in many other fields of Science we find definitions for the term „transformation” the emphasis should be laid on relevant definitions concerning the field of Social and Political Sciences. By the Greek word „metamorphosis” is meant a change of form or structure into another without loosing substance. Especially in Social and Political Sciences we observe structural conversion, change or mutation. This includes changes like changes from centrally planned economy into free market economy (socalled „transformism”) or change from one form of society into another; further a conversion of a political system into another system, whereby is meant a basic change or exchange of the political regime sometimes also of the social and economic order. In Political Sciences especially changes from dictatures to democracies are analysed. Special attendance is given here to the socalled „countries of the third wave of democratization“ (Samuel Huntington), i.e. countries with sytemchange to democracy after 1974: the right dictatures of South Europe (Portugal, Greece, Spain), the capitalistic autocracies in Eastasia (Philippines, Taiwan, Southkorea, Thailand) or the former socialist coutries in Cental and Eastern Europae (Hungary, Poland, Russlia, Balkan, Baltic area, Ukraine).
Another usage of the word came up during the early 1990s, when “transformation” came to be associated with the massive plan to change national education systems. “Education transformation” was a term nuanced with esoteric meaning - referring not only to the comprehensive “economic, social and cultural health of the society,”2 but also, in global education circles, to education in “higher order thinking skills” to facilitate the collective evolution of consciousness.3 Interesting enough those education reform gurus were using the term in the same way that the New Age Theosophists were using it. Founder of the Theosophist movement was Helena P. Blavatsky, who heavyly influenced with her occult works the philosophy of UNESCO, worked out this term already in her book „the Secret Doctrine” more than hundert years ago.
New meanings for the word “transformation” entered the modern lexicon in the early 1980s. New Age author Marilyn Ferguson, who is credited with launching the “coming out party” for Luciferian Theosophists, extensively used the term. She defined it as “transformation of consciousness,” “a new seeing,” “conscious evolution,” and a “paradigm change.” Transformation was an essential part of the Teilhardian leap from “individual evolution” to “collective evolution.”4
2. Bridge
Once - at the beginning of the 80's already prevailed a bad tendency in the institutions for the European Union, since the process of integration seems to have los at dynamics. Jacques Delors caused at that time a turn, by providing enthusiasm with his project of the common domestic market. We asked ourselves in June 2005: What will the politicians do this time?
This time the CFSP could fuel to the process of integration new dynamics: This goal was tried to achive already since 19985: By the establishment of a military staff and a security committee, the structure of of a good relationship to NATO and with the creation of the office of Solana, who lends the CFSP face and voice.
„EUROPA | EU Official Documents | European Commission | Secretariat-General |
General Report 1998 - Chapter V: Role of the Union in the world
Section 1: Common foreign and security policy (3/24)
European Commission; Manuscript completed January 1999“6.
The Helsinki Headline Goal process provided further development of the capacities, both the military and the civilian, for effective crisis management.
In Paragraph 12 of „Document A/WEU REC 666 from 5 June 2000, Forty-sixth session (First Part) RECOMMENDATION 666: on the consequences of including certain functions of WEU in the European Union - reply to the annual report of the Council” we find:
„12 Support proposals for the WEU Secretary-General and CFSP High Representative to preside over the PSC and civilian crisis-management machinery and give him powers to convene the Council of the European Union in the event of an emergency”.
An in Paragraph 15:
„15 Assist the European Union in coordinating civilian and military crisis management using the CIMIC concept as a basis and inform the Assembly about this concept”7.
Not to remain unmentioned, in December 2003 the Council of the European Union adopted the European Securtity Strategy, the so-called „Solana paper“.
However the European Union acted even more activly: Examples:the police mission in Bosnia, the military takover of WEU -, today police operation in Macedonia and the first autonomously accomplished operation in the Congo. On the Balkans and also in Iran the European Union was noticed as a participant with regard to foreign policy, which was confirmed by Solanas membership in the Middle East quartet.
3. Germany 2005
The German election had its consequenses for the inner and outer European Politics:
On 1st of July: Schröder asked the German Parliament, if they trust him anymore and the Parliament voted against him. So Schröder asked for dissolvation of the parliament, which was allowed by the German president Horst Köhler on 21.of July, together with his demand for new elections.
Already one week later, at 7th of July High Representive for EU Foreign Affairs and WEU General Secretary and General Secratry of the Council of the European Union Javier Solana meets Angela Merkel, candidate of the opposition party CDU, in Berlin. Both Angela Merkel (CDU) and Gerhard Schröder (SPD) claimed victory and the Chancellorship as the exit polls came in. As it became clear that neither could form a majority government within the existing coalitions, both said that they would negotiate with all parties that had won seats except the Left Party, whilst the leaders of the Left Party rejected any possibility of participating in a coalition with either of the two main parties. Finally the Merkel-led grand coalition government took office at the end of November after the parliament elected Merkel chancellor.
Merkel nominated Christoph Heusgen, who served as chief-of-staff for EU top diplomat Javier Solana from 1999 to 2005, as Merkel's chancellery Foreign Affairs adviser. This change is meant to bring also a change into the international role of Germany, as Dr. Heusgen already mentioned: "It is a fact that we have a value-bound Foreign Policy."8
What does that mean? In Heusgens own words: "All these are trouble spots," Heusgen said at the time. "One way or another, the EU has to play a role, get member states to work together to try and anticipate and avoid conflicts."9 Heusgen is a fervent advocate for a strong Europe. As head of the unit charged with analyzing crisis situations and possible responses, he's become also a strong proponent of EU-wide military cooperation. "We need to be able to, when it is necessary, involve ourselves militarily,"10
Concerning the Politics towards the East we can await a change. Before the Russian-German relation was dominated by the friendship between Schroeder and Putin and so somewhat very emotional, also in its results. In the already cited „Zeit-interview” it says:
„...In handling Russia for example. There he felt in Brussels bitterly, how much the friendship between Putin and Schroeder makes unsure the Eastern Europeans. "I am for the revival of the Weimar triangle", says Heusgen, thinks thus of a new partnership with France and Poland. He wants to merge stronger with Warsaw, call more frequently the Baltics and if the shedule allows it, to send also the woman Chancellor once. Small gestures with signal effect. "Germany can reach so much, if it binds the others more in, says Heusgen and dreams even about an axle Merkel - Zapatero. Already Kohl had once maintained best relations with the Spanish socialist González.” And again in the also already cited article from the International Tribune it says: „His mettle will be tested as Germany prepares to take over the EU presidency in 2007. Already, there are suggestions that Berlin will make a major effort to relaunch the constitution. His other big challenge is to prevent Europe from tearing itself apart, as it nearly did before the U.S.-led war against Iraq, when Britain and several East European countries supported Washington while Germany, France and Russia led the opposition.Heusgen has already said he wants no return to the French-German-Russian coalition that upset many EU member states because they believed Germany was turning its back on political integration and failing to protect them against the bigger member states.Then there is the Warsaw Triangle, a forum where France, Germany and Poland have held regular consultations but with few results and which Heusgen wants to give real substance. That could be tricky.”11
Concerning the wishes of the Turkey of becoming a member of the EU Merkel had insisted on a "privileged partnership" suggestion for Turkey during her election campaign, unlike former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, who was a strong supporter of Turkey's full membership in the Union12. But not so any longer: „German leader Angela Merkel has sought to reassure her Turkish counterpart that she will not stand in the way of Ankara's membership talks with the EU...Germany's new chancellor, Angela Merkel, has said that "things will develop well" with Turkey, and has acknowledged Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's statement that Berlin and Ankara "will walk hand in hand as always". Merkel met with Erdogan during the Euro-Mediterranean summit in Barcelona on 27 November and she reassured the Turkish leader that "'pacta sunt servanda [agreements must be respected] applies and that things will develop well"13.
By the way, Erdogan is about - together with Spanish Premier Zapatero - to push for a socalled „Alliance of Civilizations”. This initiative was launched by Erdogan and Zapatero under the auspices of UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan. Erdogan went to Barcelona to represent Turkey in the Euromed Summit where the fight against terrorism, economic reform, methods to produce concrete regional commitments on human rights, good governance, democracy and transparency and education will top the agenda.“
And Merkel sounded loud on her first official trip as Chancellor to London to the other EU member countries: „Stop squabbling and work together!“...“She announced that Germany and Britain would resume annual policy meetings of the two governments, bringing together all the ministers of both sides to co-ordinate decisions more closely. It could all add up to a quiet revolution. In her first two days Mrs Merkel had added a lot to the European mix: Atlanticism, economic realism, a call for tolerance instead of the blame game, and a special concern for the new member states of former Eastern Europe. She is to visit Poland on 2 December14.
4. Great Britain 2005
On first of August 2005 Great Britain was due to take over the Presidency of the Council of the EU. But before, London suffered a big trauma: The explosions of some bombs in the public traffic system on July 07.
At July 08.2005, just one day(sic) after London terror attacks the German Parliament approved an electronic passport plan to begin Nov. 1, with Lufthansa Airlines and Siemens AG of Munich initiating a test in which passengers’ thumbprints will be used to verify identity before boarding a plane to tighten securitry15.
At 07.09.2005, two days(sic) after the London terror attacks, the EU published the following information on how it was to improve anti-terror measures: "...The European Commission said it will speed up efforts to create an EU-wide intelligence network and improve its emergency plans in the wake of Thursday's bombing attacks on London's transport system. The European Union is to speed up work on a rapid response program to coordinate pan-European reactions to large-scale terror attacks, such as the series of coordinated bombings that hit London on Thursday, EU Justice and Security Commissioner Franco Frattini said... Next week, on July 13, the (European) Commission will discuss further measures in the fight against terrorism, in particular a proposal for a terrorism-related rapid response mechanism," Frattini said..."16.
But there was more to come: Four months later Brithish Premier Tony Blair tried to get a vote for his own security package in Great Britain’s parliament. For the public the result was sold as a desasterous loss for Blair: "NEWS BRIEF: British Anti-Terror Legislation Defeat Raises Questions Over Blair's Political Future, London(AP) - The House of Commons' vote to quash Tony Blair's anti-terror legislation dealt the prime minister his first-ever defeat - an embarrassing setback that raises doubts about his political future. Blair had staked his authority on the plan to detain terror suspects for 90 days without charge and doggedly refused to compromise. But some 49 of his own lawmakers, including 11 former ministers, joined forces with opposition parties to defeat the measure Wednesday ... Now that rebels have inflicted their first defeat, some question how long he will survive as prime minister."17
...However, Blair really got all he wanted anyway: The English „Insider” writes: „The British regime achieved a major victory in parliament yesterday, successfully passing a new anti-terror bill containing an extensive package of new and increased powers for the authorities and new and increased restrictions on the public. Unfortunately, few ordinary people in the UK are aware of the changes approved yesterday by their elected representatives, because to date they have been barely mentioned in the mass media ... In an impressive exercise of mass deception, the mass media in the UK are universally portraying this as a historic 'defeat', and indeed, this is the top story in every mass media news outlet in the country today, on TV, on the radio and in the press, without exception. So powerful is the message from the mass media that even alternative outlets for news and commentary, most notably the independent blogs and web sites, have seized on the news as a story about the 'defeat' of new anti-terror laws. We are unable to find a single example, apart from the article that you are now reading, that highlights government's success in passing a major new anti-terror new bill with virtually no amendments. If this is how we define 'defeat' or failure, surely success would require a dictatorship. In reality, the 'defeat' described by the mass media is nothing more than a slight change to one part of one point in the long list of proposals advanced by the government -- namely the infamous '90 days' proposal, which was reduced to a month instead of six months. This proposal would literally give policemen the power to sentence people to six-months in prison without evidence, without a trial or an opportunity to defend against the charge, in fact without even charging the prisoner with any crime."17
The rest of this article details how the major mass media in Great Britain successfully turned a practical, strategic victory for the Prime Minister into a Public Relations "terrible defeat" which could threaten his longevity in office. Thus, the average person in Great Britain who was concerned that his rights and liberties were threatened by this "Patriot Act" type of laws can go back to sleep -- falsely assured that Blair's proposals for a dictatorship were decisively "defeated".
The power of propaganda...
Finally on 2005, Dec. 1, European Union Justice ministers have adopted a new counter-terrorism strategy that includes potential terror recruitment concerns. The ministers, meeting in Brussels, backed a British proposal set forth after the July London bombings. De Vries said the objective of the strategy was to prevent terrorist attacks, especially in protecting delicate infrastructure such as transport systems, the EU Observer reported, and suggested a special body in every member state be established to deal only with counter-terrorism.18
5. France 2005
In June 2005 the French and short after the Dutch population voted against the EU constitution. European Politicians did not get tired to assure that this was not an expression against the constitution, they would regard it more like a general unhappiness of the voters with the national rules of France and Netherlands. Then came a hot summer.
The 2005 civil unrests in France and neighboring countries was a series of riots and other forms of violent clashes between thousands of youths (predominantly of French Muslim background) from poor suburbs and the French Police (as well as the police of neighboring countries).
The riots began on Thursday 27 October
After 3 November it spread to other cities in France, affecting all 15 of the large aires urbaines in the country. Thousands of vehicles were burned, and at least one person was killed by the rioters. Close to 2900 rioters were arrested.19 Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy after the fourth night of riots declared a zero tolerance policy towards urban violence and announced that seventeen companies of riot police (C.R.S.) and seven mobile police squadrons (escadrons de gendarmerie mobile) would be stationed in contentious Paris neighborhoods.
On 8 November, President Jacques Chirac declared a state of emergency effective at midnight. Despite the new regulations, riots continued, though on a reduced scale, the following two nights, and again worsened the third night. On 9 November and the morning of 10 November a school was burned in Belfort, and there was violence in Toulouse, Lille, Strasbourg, Marseille, and Lyon. The state of emergency gives authorities the power to regulate or forbid circulation and gathering in some areas, as well as the right to close places of gathering. It may also give the military authority the power to act in place of civilian authorities, if a decree specifies it explicitly. It is unclear though how some of the legal possibilities can be implemented currently, because of various legal changes since the 1950s. Since 1955, three other states of emergency have been decreed in France: in
Author Tracy R. Twyman writes: „...there was another organization operating under the umbrella of the Priory of Sion known as “Alpha Galates”, lead by M. Pierre Plantard, a direct descendant of Dagobert II, who would one day become the "Grand Master of the Priory of Sion" itself. Alpha Galates was largely concerned with politics, both of France and of Europe in general. They also published a strange little magazine called Vaincre (Victory). One of their goals was: The creation of a ’new western order’, a ‘young European chivalry’ whose keynote was to be ‘Solidarity.’ Within each European nation, this organization, known as ‘Solidarity’, was to represent ‘the first stage of the United States of the West.’”20.
Now we have the French emergency legislation dating from 1955 as a reaction to the Paris riots.
Concerning the 1958 situation I found a part in the 1989 softcover bookedition from 1989 of "The Messianic Legacy" by Baigent, Leigh, Lincoln(who more famous for the book Holy Blood, Holy Grail, which highly influenced "the daVinci-code"),: On the „Comités de Salut public (Committees of Public Safety)”:
"...Thus, the Committees in Algeria began to press insistently for De Gaulle to assume power in France, if necessary by means of a military coup. They received support from a number of high-ranking military men, including Marshal Alphonse Juin, who is alleged to have been an important member of the Prieuré de Sion. They also received support from a coalescing pro-Gaullist movement in France, the Social Republican Party, whose leaders included Michel Debré- who became De Gaulle's Minister of Justice and, shortly after, between 1959 and 1962, Prime Minister of France. Another important pro-Gaullist figure was Georges Bidault, a former Resistance hero. Between 1945 and 1954, Bidault had worked closely with Robert Schuman-Professor Louis Le Fur's old friend-in drawing up the blueprints for the EEC...
By (1958) 23 May, reports had begun to surface of Committees of Public Safety already being established in mainland France. On 24 May, a Committee assumed power in Corsica, while Algerian broadcasters urged France and her people to `choose between the star of Moscow and the Cross of Lorraine"...”On 29 May, every Committee of Public Safety in Paris was mobilised and thousands of supporters poured on to the streets....“21
”When we first met M.Plantard in 1979, he told us that Charles de Gaulle had personally requested him to direct the French Committees of Public Safety "and, when their task of installing the General in power had been completed, "to preside over" their dissolution"
"...Under the authority of Marshal Alphonse Juin, the seat of the Secretariat-General of the Committees of Public Safety in metropolitan France was at Aulnay-sous-Bois [author: Paris suburb so close nearby where the riots 2005 started(sic!)]. This Committee was directed by Michel Debré, Pierre Plantard known as Way, and André Malraux.' "22
And just compare with the already mentioned Paragraph 12 from the WEU document: REC 666:
”12 Support proposals for the "WEU Secretary-General and CFSP High Representative to preside over the PSC and civilian crisis-management machinery" and give him powers to convene the Council of the European Union in the event of an emergency;".
This civil unrest created a pretext for the implementation of authoritarian measures and considerable restrictions on personal liberties. The French riots painted a French president without power: „Wounded Chirac ‘losing grip’ of riot-hit France. France yesterday ordered a ban on public meetings likely to provoke disturbances as thousands of police were deployed on the streets of Paris to stop youths turning the tourist centre into a battlefield. The initiative came as speculation mounted over a severely discredited Jacques Chirac’s ability to endure the last 17 months of his presidential term...He has said virtually nothing about it, heightening perceptions of him as a politically irrelevant figure....The 72-year-old head of state has been off balance ever since voters defied him by rejecting the European Union constitution in May.:scared Even his lieutenants in the centre-right governing team seemed to be putting the boot in. “Chirac looks stunned, almost overtaken by events,” Jean-Louis Debré, president of the national assembly, was quoted as saying”.23
„Upon closer examination, the dialectic of race merely camouflages a broader Hegelian manipulation. Marginalized and deprived of any substantial political capital, many ethnic and racial groups are predisposed to exploitation by socialist revolutionary movements. Race war invariably becomes class war and class war invariably results in some form of dictatorship. Whether the resulting dictatorship ostensibly belongs to the proletariat or bourgeoisie, absolute primacy is always held by a hidden oligarchy.“24
The dialectic of race merely disguises a larger Hegelian dialectic: communism against fascism. Ayn Rand probably provides the most eloquent summation of this dialectic: „It is obvious what the fraudulent issue of fascism versus communism accomplishes: it sets up, as opposites, two variants of the same political system... it switches the choice of "Freedom or dictatorship?" into "Which kind of dictatorship?"--thus establishing dictatorship as an inevitable fact and offering only a choice of rulers. The choice--according to the proponents of the fraud - is: a dictatorship of the rich (fascism) or a dictatorship of the poor (communism). “25
6. Results and Consequences
Now after the French and Dutch voters have rejected the EU's new Constitution, the EU heads seem facing a crisis. To govern the expanded EU and continue being a global player, the EU leaders feel they really need their new Constitution in force. Not to forget, the Constitution sets a headline goal of 2010 for all Solana's civilian and military peace-keeping/peace-making capabilities to be deployable. These broad-ranging assets include 13 battle groups, heavy lift aircraft, aircraft carrier, satellite communications and much more. Now without constitution all this is threatened. Or, not?
When we taka a look at the WEU document called "The way ahead for the European Security and Defence Policy and its democratic scrutiny – reply to the annual report of the Council by the assembly of the WEU” (Document C/1915, November 8, 2005), it turns out that all of the elements of the new EU Constitution that have to do with the EU's Foreign and Security Policy goals -- including their new, super Foreign Minister and his global diplomatic service -- can be legally done within the framework of the WEU. In other words, as long as the WEU is around, the EU does not need their new Constitution to reach their goals.
High Representative Javier Solana says: „In the past 10 years, there is much that we have achieved. We are working together across the full spectrum of government responsibilities: economy, security, governance and more.“26
Internationalists don't talk so much anymore about creating a world government. They talk about a thing called "world governance." The idea is, instead of establishing a global federalization of some kind, they want to link existing governments, along with all the private sectors, into a new global structure. In other words, they want to talk everybody into going along with their global agenda willingly. Terminated through its international engagement. So does the European identity of the the European nations. European nations become more and more depending from Brussels. European coutries concentrate more intergration. Europe orientates itself shifts more and more towards „security“ and combines more and more civil and military units, added by subtile but intensive pressure which is put onto resisting nations. this phenomen is not just typical for Central Europa, it can be said on a global scale.
My thesis is: the transformation is a directed endevaour. This “transformation” is to be accomplished by a “mission” strategy of doing “whatever it takes” to launch political, social, and cultural reforms on a global scale. A philosophy of “the end justifies the means” has been embraced to accomplish these colossal goals. Extremely sophisticated psycho-social marketing techniques are employed to facilitate this “transformation.” State-of-the-art statistical measurement and assessment methods evaluate this “transformation,” judging “effectiveness” by pre-set criteria. National governments sign multilateral treaties which surrender their political and legal souvereignity. National governments adopt more policies of „regionalism“ and „multiculturalism“, and other policies which will eventually eleminate national borders, culture, and identity and create global citizens. National governments will wind back their natinal armed forces to levels sufficient only to subdue their own people and participate in „global peac-keeping“ activities as requiered by EU and UN. Nations are corporate persons in a „postmodern surrounding” and to be transformed through „discipling“.27 Or to say it with Solanas words: “A secure Europe in a better world“.
As shown “transformation” is substantial and deep, intent on re-forging the very foundations of, western civilization, and ultimately the governance of the entire earth. While lip service is being paid to the traditional definitions you read about above, in reality the word “transformation” now indicates a societal, cultural and global revolution.

What a person believes with the heart and what he/she believes with the mind may vary. Widely! This explains how a person can be a learned Christian minister with a Doctor of Theology and still get lured into apostasy and sin. It happened in my area, for instance, with an evangelical minister in well-respected congregation who was preaching sermons and having a relationship with a young girl related to a staff member. He left, of course, when this was discovered.
ReplyDeleteBut it happens all the time, and I believe it is a danger to a person who has "studied" too much and not
felt the gospel fully in his heart.
Or maybe Satan is so clever he can make it happen even to the truly born again. If born again, the person will be sought out and rescued by that Shepherd Who will finish a work He once begun. Have faith in the rescue work of the Good Shepherd.

Constance said "I wish the old Bjorn Freiberg would return to us. I do miss him and what I thought were his true feelings and insights."
ReplyDeleteMy question is this, why would you wish for the "old" Bjorn. There is no old or new...he simply is what he is. We need to be thankful to YHVH that he was found out now instead of wishing for someone who did not really exist to come back to us.
C. you are still in my prayers...the enemy does not like being exposed.
Constance, please do not now ask for the Old Bjorn. The Old Bjorn was a deceiver who came among us. It always bothered me that his comments were mainly related to EU events. Never so much giving praise and honor to YHVH. We must REALLY listen to the Words "christians" use. Do not let the nay sayers make you wish for the Evil that was among us. Pray for Bjorn's true salvation. Our prayers and good wishes are of no use once a person is taken from us. Now is the time to pray without ceasing for Bjorn!! ANYONE WHO HAS AN EAR, LISTEN.
ReplyDeleteCLIFF KINCAID'S ARTICLE ON PAPAL ENCYCLICAL
ReplyDeleteQuite frankly, IMHO, I think that Cliff Kinkaid's article indicates that he has misunderstood the Papal encyclical.
Modern Popes have learned their lessons of the past about meddling in politics and are more or less officially indifferent to the kind of political system that is in play - just so long as said political system is not guilty of human rights violations.
For example, take the statement from Kincaid's article:
Some in the media are calling it just a statement about “economic justice.” But Pope Benedict XVI’s “Charity in Truth” statement, also known as an encyclical, is a radical document that puts the Roman Catholic Church firmly on the side of an emerging world government.
If an "emerging world government" ever "emerges," the Pope is certainly not going to have any control over said "emergence" - any more than the popes of previous centuries were able to control the overthrow of the monarchies and the establishment of republics in their stead.
No. If an "emerging world government" comes into play, then the Pope is going to have to learn to deal with it as he would any other earthly government - encouraging whatever good, truth and justice it claims to represent and condemning any evils and injustices it perpetrates.
Perhaps the best thing is to read the Encyclical itself where it says(emphasis mine):
9. Love in truth — caritas in veritate — is a great challenge for the Church in a world that is becoming progressively and pervasively globalized. The risk for our time is that the de facto interdependence of people and nations is not matched by ethical interaction of consciences and minds that would give rise to truly human development. Only in charity, illumined by the light of reason and faith, is it possible to pursue development goals that possess a more humane and humanizing value. The sharing of goods and resources, from which authentic development proceeds, is not guaranteed by merely technical progress and relationships of utility, but by the potential of love that overcomes evil with good (cf. Rom 12:21), opening up the path towards reciprocity of consciences and liberties.
The Church does not have technical solutions to offer[10] and does not claim “to interfere in any way in the politics of States.”[11] She does, however, have a mission of truth to accomplish, in every time and circumstance, for a society that is attuned to man, to his dignity, to his vocation.
Without truth, it is easy to fall into an empiricist and sceptical view of life, incapable of rising to the level of praxis because of a lack of interest in grasping the values — sometimes even the meanings — with which to judge and direct it. Fidelity to man requires fidelity to the truth, which alone is the guarantee of freedom (cf. Jn 8:32) and of the possibility of integral human development. For this reason the Church searches for truth, proclaims it tirelessly and recognizes it wherever it is manifested. This mission of truth is something that the Church can never renounce. Her social doctrine is a particular dimension of this proclamation: it is a service to the truth which sets us free. Open to the truth, from whichever branch of knowledge it comes, the Church's social doctrine receives it, assembles into a unity the fragments in which it is often found, and mediates it within the constantly changing life-patterns of the society of peoples and nations [12].

ReplyDeleteIn fact, the place where the Encyclical mentions an entity with "teeth" it is referring to the UN which, as we all know, has no "teeth."
And does anyone actually believe that the UN is in no need of reform?
The United Nations was by its very definition supposed to embody the idea of the "family of nations."
Instead, for some, it has come to embody the "oil for food" scandal!
67.In the face of the unrelenting growth of global interdependence, there is a strongly felt need, even in the midst of a global recession, for a reform of the United Nations Organization, and likewise of economic institutions and international finance, so that the concept of the family of nations can acquire real teeth.
http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/encyclicals/documents/hf_ben-xvi_enc_20090629_caritas-in-veritate_en.html
LOL We can only hope that the reform of the UN will begin with the replacement of renegade suspended priest and proponent of Liberation Theology, Miguel D'Escoto. Notice Kincaid doesn't say "ex-priest," in his article but "Communist Catholic priest." In his News With Views article Kincaid writes:
The Pope’s shocking endorsement of a “World Political Authority,” which has prophetic implications for some Christians who fear that a global dictatorship will take power in the “last days” of man’s reign on earth, comes shortly after the United Nations Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis issued a call for global taxes and more powerful global institutions. U.N. General Assembly President, Miguel D’Escoto, a Communist Catholic Priest, gave a speech at the event calling on the nations of the world to revere “Mother Earth” but concluded with words from the Pope blessing the conference participants.
http://www.newswithviews.com/Kincaid/cliff329.htm
Not too many news articles mention the fact that Miguel D'Escoto IS A SUSPENDED PRIEST!!! The following is an article from the Catholic News Agency.
SUSPENDED NICARAGUAN PRIEST ELECTED PRESIDENT OF U.N. ASSEMBLY
June 6, 2008/ 12:53 pm (CNA).- Suspended priest and former Sandinista leader Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann has been elected to lead the next U.N. General Assembly, beginning in September of this year.
D’Escoto has been a Maryknoll priest since 1961, and in 1975 he became involved with the Sandinista movement in Nicaragua, eventually becoming the country’s minister of foreign relations, a post he held until 1990.
He was suspended by the Vatican in the 1980s together with two other priests involved in the Sandinista revolution, Ernesto and Fernando Cardenal. During a visit to Central America, Pope John Paul II publicly reprimanded him for his political activities.
D’Escoto, who was born in Los Angeles, California, is a close advisor to the current president of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, and is a member of the World Council of Churches.
In 1999, then Archbishop of Managua, Cardinal Miguel Obando Bravo, criticized those priests who became involved with the Sandinistas and abandoned their priestly ministry for politics. He said the priests never denounced the injustices that took place at that time.
D'Escoto will succeed Macedonia's Srgjan Kerim in September as president of the U.N. General Assembly and will hold the position for a year.

Miguel d’Escoto Brockmann Accuses Israel of Gaza -’GENOCIDE’
by sheikyermami on January 14, 2009
Winds of Jihad featured this shady character on a few previous occasions. Like here.
Brockman, this utterly corrupt Jew-hating cretin, is firmly in the Arab pocket and is one of the main-supporters of the OIC’s bill to make criticism of Islam a crime...........
.......D’Escoto, a former Roman Catholic priest and Nicaragua foreign minister, is known for his outspoken criticism of Israel and last year likened Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians to the racist apartheid system previously used in South Africa.
Gabriela Shalev, Israel’s ambassador to the UN, called d’Escoto an “Israel hater” for having hugged Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president and a vocal critic of Israel.
D’Escoto also said the UN had to bear some responsibility for the long-standing conflict in the Middle East as it had allowed the creation of the state of Israel in 1948, leaving the Palestinians stateless.
“You have to attack problems at their root cause and the Palestinian people have been subjected to subhuman treatment for decades and this [the Israeli offensive] is going to make matters worse.”........

A key word in the passage from the Encyclical I just quoted is "de facto" which means that "the interdependence of people" is something that has already occurred (i.e. a fact of history) as a result of "a world that is becoming progressively and pervasively globalized."
Apart from that, papal opinions about politics qua politics are just that - opinions.... and they do NOT - I repeat DO NOT -involve the Pope's infallibility. Papal infallibility applies strictly to official teaching in matters of faith and morals.
At the end of the day one might do well to carefully read the Encyclical itself and not someone's misinterpretation of it.
This looks like it will help fuel the dialogue about interfaith relations:

Susanna,
ReplyDeleteWe have always had a good line of discussion and can not ever recall our conversations becoming uncivil. I am happy that we have been able to be frank with one another without the conversation breaking down to the point of bickering. That being said, as always take my comments simply at face value, as always.
Thank you for digging up the whole of the story regarding Benedicts statement. I had just finished reading the Kincaid article before flipping back here to find your comments. As is the case with many writers he seems to have just skipped to quotes which would be considered flash points, without delving into the entirety of the meaning. Benedict does however seem to be positioning himself, for what I am unsure as only time will show this. Given the nature of what is transpiring within the world, more explicitly the UN/AOC, I don't see how he could not begin to position himself and the catholic church, especially if he dosn't want to become an unfair target of the worlds ire.
I do have my reservations about any church supporting the UN in any form, given their base in theosophy, but I don't have any first hand knowledge that tells me he knows of this base. That being said, at this point, I have to leave judgement for our Father. This is a very thin line to have to walk, and for what I can see the UN/AOC agenda will not allow him to walk it for very long. I simply pray, as I do for us all, that when push comes to shove he ends up on the right side of that line.
Hi JD,
ReplyDeleteNice to hear from you.
Regarding your comment:
I do have my reservations about any church supporting the UN in any form, given their base in theosophy, but I don't have any first hand knowledge that tells me he knows of this base.
So do I have my reservations about any church supporting the UN - especially with a creature like D'Escoto in charge.
My point was that at the end of the day, no church is really going to have any control over whether the UN continues to exist or not.
The only thing the churches can do is to pray and to condemn any injustices that are a result of UN corruption.
My problem with Kincaid is that he KNEW that D'Escoto had been suspended and had, in fact, mentioned it in another of his NEWSWITHVIEWS articles dated June 27, 2009.
....Another example of this attitude can be seen in the U.N. conference that has been underway in New York, where the Obama Administration is facilitating the work of anti-American crackpot Miguel D’Escoto, the U.N. General Assembly President whose most notable distinctions include being suspended from his priestly duties because of his communist political activities and receiving the Lenin Peace Prize from the old Soviet Union.
By any objective measure, nothing good for America can come out of this conference. The main objective of D’Escoto and his ilk, including Hugo Chavez and the Castro brothers, is world government financed by global taxes. They have made it clear that the American people will have to pay the price because we have desecrated “Mother Earth,” as D’Escoto called it......
http://www.newswithviews.com/Kincaid/cliff324.htm
Why the Pope doesn't shut down the entire Maryknoll order is a mystery to me, but I would venture a guess that the Pope doesn't think it would be fair to tar every Maryknoller with the same brush.
Having said that I will close in saying that I have to agree with you on one thing. Ultimately, God is in control and like you, I leave all judgement up to Him. Nothing will happen except by His permission. And as the Bible tells us:
"The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly from temptation, but to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be tormented." 2Peter 2:9

The Pope's support of the "world poliical authority" is very disturbing and more signs of the times. He has tremendous influence over the masses of people and is using his platform to promote a very evil agenda!!

Pope's New Encyclical Speaks Against, not for One-World Government and New World Order
ReplyDeleteby John-Henry Westen - 7/8/09
LifeSiteNews.com
Newspapers, blogs, talk-shows on radio and television are full of discussion over Pope Benedict XVI's supposed call for a "new world order" or a "one-world government." These ideas are, however, neither based in reality nor a clear reading of the Pope's latest encyclical, Caritas in Veritate, the release of which yesterday spawned the heated discussion.
The Pope actually speaks directly against a one-world government, and, as would be expected from those who have read his previous writings, calls for massive reform of the United Nations. Confusion seems to have come from paragraph 67 of the encyclical, which has some choice pull-quotes which have spiced the pages of the world's news, from the New York Times to those of conspiracy theorist bloggers seeing the Pope as the Anti-Christ.
The key quote which has led to the charge reads: "To manage the global economy; to revive economies hit by the crisis; to avoid any deterioration of the present crisis and the greater imbalances that would result; to bring about integral and timely disarmament, food security and peace; to guarantee the protection of the environment and to regulate migration: for all this, there is urgent need of a true world political authority, as my predecessor Blessed John XXIII indicated some years ago."
(Continued . . .)
ReplyDeleteHowever, in paragraph 41, the Holy Father specifically differentiates his concept of a world political authority from that of a one-world government. "We must," he says "promote a dispersed political authority." He explains that "The integrated economy of the present day does not make the role of States redundant, but rather it commits governments to greater collaboration with one another. Both wisdom and prudence suggest not being too precipitous in declaring the demise of the State. In terms of the resolution of the current crisis, the State's role seems destined to grow, as it regains many of its competences. In some nations, moreover, the construction or reconstruction of the State remains a key factor in their development."
Later in the encyclical (57) he speaks of the opposite concept to one- world government -subsidiarity (the principle of Catholic social teaching which states that matters ought to be handled by the smallest, lowest or least centralized competent authority) - as being essential. "In order not to produce a dangerous universal power of a tyrannical nature, the governance of globalization must be marked by subsidiarity," says the Pope.
Another of the key quotes which is being extracted for shock value from the encyclical is this: "In the face of the unrelenting growth of global interdependence, there is a strongly felt need, even in the midst of a global recession, for a reform of the United Nations Organization, and likewise of economic institutions and international finance, so that the concept of the family of nations can acquire real teeth."
Since long before his papacy, Joseph Ratzinger has vigorously fought the United Nations' vision of a 'New World Order'. As early as 1997, and repeated subsequently, Ratzinger took public aim at such a vision, noting that the philosophy coming from UN conferences and the Millennium Summit "proposes strategies to reduce the number of guests at the table of humanity, so that the presumed happiness [we] have attained will not be affected."
"At the base of this New World Order", he said is the ideology of "women's empowerment," which erroneously sees "the principal obstacles to [a woman's] fulfillment [as] the family and maternity." The then-cardinal advised that "at this stage of the development of the new image of the new world, Christians - and not just them but in any case they even more than others - have the duty to protest."
Benedict XVI in fact repeats those criticisms in the new encyclical. In Caritas in Veritate, the Pope slams "practices of demographic control, on the part of governments that often promote contraception and even go so far as to impose abortion." He also denounces international economic bodies such as the IMF and World Bank (without specifically naming them) for their lending practices which tie aid to so-called 'family planning.' "There is reason to suspect that development aid is sometimes linked to specific health-care policies which de facto involve the imposition of strong birth control measures," says the encyclical.
Any vision of a proper ordering of the world, of international economics or political cooperation, suggests the Pope, must be based on a "moral order." That includes first and foremost "the fundamental right to life" from conception to natural death, the recognition of the family based on marriage between one man and one woman as the basis of society and freedom for faith and cooperation among all peoples based on principles of natural law.

U.S. plans for autumn swine flu vaccination campaign
ReplyDeleteWASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States is planning for a vaccination campaign against the new H1N1 flu that could move into schools and community centers, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said on Thursday.
Sebelius led off a "summit" of state and territorial officials to tell them what the federal government plans to do if the new swine flu virus continues its spread. It has killed at least 429 people globally and caused the first 21st century pandemic.
U.S. officials say at least 1 million people in the United States have been infected, most with a mild to moderate case.
Although federal health officials lead an annual seasonal influenza vaccination campaign, this one is likely to be different, Sebelius said in an interview.
The new flu appears to hit older children and young adults harder, in contrast to seasonal viruses that disproportionately afflict the old.
"We are likely to have a different target population," Sebelius said. "We will be seeking partnerships with schools potentially and other vaccination sites."
Time will have to be spent writing consent forms so parents are not blindsided when schools ask to vaccinate their children, Sebelius said.
Time is short.
"Clearly this will drill down to states and, frankly, local health departments," she said. "We have got to push supplies out. We have got to push antivirals out."
No one knows if the H1N1 virus will stay mild, or if it will change slightly as it circulates, coming back in the northern hemisphere's autumn months in a more virulent form.
SURGE CAPACITY
Hospitals must prepare their so-called surge capacity -- making room to take in dozens or even hundreds of sick people at once -- at a time when most hospitals are already full with day-to-day sicknesses and emergencies, Sebelius said.
Health officials already have said it is likely a vaccine against H1N1 will be offered separately from the annual seasonal flu vaccine, which is a cocktail of three different flu viruses. It is also likely to be given as two doses -- another logistical complication.
"I think that part of the challenge is how to communicate effectively with folks to be prepared without scaring people to death," Sebelius said. "It has to be a balance between complacency and preparation."
She said HHS would start an advertising campaign to help educate people about the virus. To help stir up interest, the agency was offering a contest for the best unpaid advertisement for television and radio, called a public service announcement or PSA. "The winning PSA will receive $2,500 in cash and will appear on national television," HHS said.
http://tinyurl.com/mybxm9
In a related video I found, this is Barbara Loe Fisher from the National Vaccine Information Center discussing the push for this vaccine. In which she covers the WHO raising the pandemic level to 6, how under level 6 the vaccine is being pushed through without the usual amount of trials, mandatory quarantines and how they will be operated for those infected.
http://www.nvic.org/
After looking at the NVIC website which one can see above, you will see this is authentic. A look at WHO website shows the level has indeed been raised to 6. This has went from uncomfortable to truly unsettling in a very short amount of time. My concern at this point is not about the virus itself, because even the current mutated strains are not as hazardous as what the officials are leading some to believe. My concern lies in what this rushed vaccine may bring with it. Any thoughts or other input I can get from you guys is appreciated.

The issue with the flu vaccine is one Dorothy had pointed out previously regarding Bacter who produced it.

JD,
ReplyDeleteThe pharmagiants really scare me, or that is they would scare me if I didn't essentially trust in the Lord, who created every living thing.
I remember the swine flu of the seventies. I dutifully got my vaccination, and, I was spared the awful Swine Flu. I just don't really believe that the vaccine had anything to do with my not getting the flu. In fact the Swine Flu never even made it to my town. So what happened was, my parents paid for this chicken egg & heavy metal concoction that supposedly keeps away the evil flu.
I don't believe in it and I don't believe in Flouride either. I understand that these things are poison,
basically, as are the whole gamut of poisons that
we are required to pump into our children every few years. It's enough to make you sick.
In fact putting miniscule amounts of various poisons into the body is the basic principle behind Homeopathic medicine, so, who knows, maybe I should just shut up and line up and get a needle in my arm filled with poison and be glad.
Hoooray Pfizer!, Hooray Glaxco Wellcome ! Onward
and upward Merke !
Not.
If I get a case of the flu, that's my inoculation.
If God wants me to die in an epidemic, I'm dead.
I'm sorry but I just don't believe that any of these pharmacutical giants care much about real health
as much as they care about real gigantic profits.
The swine flu is seldom deadly. I've had flu bugs plenty of times. It's tough but it builds your immunity, and you get a vacation in bed.
The avian flu is the really bad one anyway...

ReplyDeleteWhat do you know about Derek Evenson? Years ago I knew someone by that name that researched the new age topics and was a writer. I was surprised to see you mention him. Since you did, I have read some things online. I know some past information about him, nothing recent though. I would be curious to know what it is that you know regarding him. I am willing to share my knowledge via a privite email to you if you would like.
Anonymous for now
Derek Evenson was just plain evil, pretending to be all things to all people. He was raised a Mormon, but converted to the Baha'i, a New Age cult. He was, last I checked, involved with an even wilder one. He wrote books for Mormons against evangelical Christians; he wrote books for Freemasons against Christians. HE caused chaos wherever he went. Then he contacted Huntington House and claimed he had infiltrated Tara Center and had learned the identiy of their New Age "messiah." Huntington House contacted me -- I never got around to reading his manuscript initially, but told HH I was cautious because of the time honored game, "watch the fundamentalists run." He then contacted me and said, "you can't endorse my book and I know why, but I've changed my mind and won't be doing one on that topic. Instead, i'm going to write a book about how Walter Martin unfairly attacked Constance Cumbey." Well, I'm human too and that sounded good to me initially. I grew cautious when he demanded I ship him immediately all of my original correspondence from Walter Martin and Co. When I didn't send that, he called again and said he knew why I couldn't do that and now he wanted to help me with my newsletter. Initially, that sounded good to me as well. He then made repeated calls demanding I send him my entire mailing list. I faxed him a message, "send me your proposed copy -- then I will send you my mailing list." He faxed back saying, "without your mailing list, there will be no copy."
ReplyDeleteI then called Huntington House to inquire. Teresa Trosclair said, "is he still bothering you? We'll put a stop to that." I heard nothing thereafter and thought all had been put to rest. In 1991 or 1992 (things are starting to run together time-wise for me), I was cleaning out some old anti-Mormon newspapers from one John Smith. Frankly, the general tenor of the newsletters was so generally hateful that had I been a Mormon, it would have reinforced me. All at once, I saw a headline about Derek Evenson and how he had caused chaos in anti-Mormon groups, claiming to be part of Ex-Mormons for Jesus. He had been put out of Ed Decker's organization who had to get a restraining order against him. The article spoke of how Derek Evenson had written books for Mormons against Christians, for Masons against Christians, and had generally caused mischief and chaos wherever he went.
I immediately called Huntington House and read the letter to Mrs. Trosclair. I then said, "now aren't you glad you didn't publish him." She loudly groaned. "Teresa, you didn't publish him, did you?" I asked. "Fifteen thousand copies," she replied. "Theresa," I said, I warned you!
A few minutes later Richard Trosclair called me back begging me to keep what I had learned to myself. He said they had published Evenson under a pen name, "Troy Lawrence." The claim was that they had to do this to protect his life. He then brought Derek Evenson and somebody who claimed to be his father on the phone, claiming that Derek Evenson had come out of Theosophy and to the Lord reading my book."
ReplyDeleteI told him, "I am going to check out what you say. If you have told the truth, I'll be your best friend. If I find out your're lying, I'll be your worst enemy." He said, "that's what I'm like, too."
I was starting a criminal jury trial that didn't go the first day. I had pulled an all nighter (this was approximately 4 days after this conversation. Al Kresta, a WMUZ local talk show host called me when I had gone home to try to catch some sleep after the judge put us on standby. I had no coverage at my office. Al said he was going to have "Troy Lawrence" as a guest on his show that day and after seeing I was mentioned in his book, wanted my opinions to prepare for the interview.
I said, "well, Al, I'm probably cutting off my nose to spite my face because Huntington House is my publisher too, but I have serious reservations about that book." I told him what I had found the past week. I then said, "Al, I'm wiped out, but if it would help you, I'll go to my office and fax that article to you." Al said, "would you?" I did, and Troy Lawrence/Derek Evenson was outed on that program. Like all of Satan's double agents, he came out like a snarling rat."
I can tell more, but my fingers are sore and I'm exhausted for now.
Hope this helps!

ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your detailed answer to me regarding Derek Evenson/Troy Lawrence.
You have added more peices of a mysterious puzzle for me. I was aware of his many aliases and books. I did not know what kind of stir he caused or that he had involved you in any way. He is a very lost soul and very emotionally troubled.
I have my own long story regarding him (and some other peoples stories). I am sure there are many of us out there that have crossed paths with him. I would share my story with you as you have shared yours but I can not publicly. The information you have shared and my story verify each others very well. I have some added insights, but the conclusion is sadly very much the same.
Thank you again for answering my question in such detail.

I talked with a friend recently and what she said disturbed me. She has been struggling with various ailments and during her prayer times she felt God telling her to thank each body part for doing a good job etc... Since that time she has started to get well. Something sounds kind of new age to me about that. Any thoughts?

YEAH - very - name it and claim it crowd
In answer to thoughts about addressing your body parts and thanking them, to get well:
ReplyDeleteThis is not necessarily "name it and
claim it", as someone suggests, unless you actually CLAIM your healing rather than asking for it.
There is a subtle but important difference in this.
Name it and Claim it folks think THEY are in charge of the "magic" which heals. They think they have a right to claim it because by the stripes of Jesus. In extreme cases, they even caution against petitioning God for healing, as God
has already given you the right to claim healing through your delegated power as His emissary. They caution against "begging" for something one already has.
But just visualizing your body parts in a positive way, and praying for them to be healed, brings God into the equation. And it's OK. I have done that sometimes, thanking my body for being a good body and struggling against ailments. Nothing wrong with that. Thank you, Body, I hope you will be very happy when you are changed into a perfect body at the resurrection and rapture, whenever that is.

Peace-- Does this surprise you? Considering all the high level Christians involved, people deem it "okay" since they are involved. No one (ok 85-90%) really looks into these things, right?

ReplyDeleteDear Friend of America's Survival, Inc.:
It didn’t take long for the “progressives” to exploit the Pope’s meeting with Obama. A group of Catholic Democrats has a banner on its website saying “Pope Meets Hope,” referring to the meeting with Obama. The giant AFL-CIO labor union is using the Pope’s liberal message to push its radical agenda of big government and union power.
Frankly, I have to admit that the Pope and Obama are in sync on the matter of globalism and creating more global institutions.
As I have reported, the Pope released a statement, an encyclical, in favor of a “true world political authority.” He also called for “real teeth” for new global institutions. These are shocking statements.
Some traditional conservative Catholics don’t want to believe that the Pope has made this dramatic left turn, which is at variance with the anti-communism of Pope John Paul II. But we have to face facts.
As I note in my report, the Pope sounded like Al Gore on the issue of global warming and climate change and endorsed a new global warming treaty. This pleases the Catholic groups that have been working to pass the “cap-and-trade” bill -- the Franciscan Campaign on Climate Change, Catholic Climate Covenant and the Maryknoll Office for Global Concerns.
Facts are facts: the Pope has exposed himself as a one-worlder. The only way for Catholics to deal with this problem is to purge the Marxist elements from the church. This is not the time to make excuses for the Pope.
To understand this problem in the American Catholic Church, please read our report by Bob Chandler, “How Marxism Has Infiltrated the Catholic Church.”

Medvedev Shows Off Sample Coin of New ‘World Currency’ at G-8
ReplyDeleteJuly 10 (Bloomberg) -- Russian President Dmitry Medvedev illustrated his call for a supranational currency to replace the dollar by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”
“Here it is,” Medvedev told reporters today in L’Aquila, Italy, after a summit of the Group of Eight nations. “You can see it and touch it.”
The coin, which bears the words “unity in diversity,” was minted in Belgium and presented to the heads of G-8 delegations, Medvedev said.
The question of a supranational currency “concerns everyone now, even the mints,” Medvedev said. The test coin “means they’re getting ready. I think it’s a good sign that we understand how interdependent we are.”
Medvedev has repeatedly called for creating a mix of regional reserve currencies as part of the drive to address the global financial crisis, while questioning the U.S. dollar’s future as a global reserve currency. Russia’s proposals for the G-20 meeting in London in April included the creation of a supranational currency.

OBAMA TELLS POPE HE WANTS TO REDUCE ABORTIONS IN U.S.
ReplyDeleteVATICAN CITY (Reuters) - President Barack Obama promised Pope Benedict on Friday that he would do everything possible to reduce the number of abortions in the United States, the Vatican said.
Obama and Benedict held private talks for about 40 minutes in the pope's frescoed study in the Vatican's apostolic palace and the Vatican said bioethics and life issues were a central part of the discussion.
In a surprise move, the pontiff gave Obama a booklet explaining Vatican opposition to practices such as abortion and embryonic stem cell research, which Obama supports.
"Obama told the pope of his commitment to reduce the number of abortions and of his attention and respect for the positions of the Catholic Church," Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi told reporters after he was briefed by the pope.
Obama supports abortion rights and says his policy is to change economic and social conditions so as to put more women in situations where they do not feel they have to have an abortion.
The pope gave Obama, who last March lifted restrictions of federal funding for human embryonic stem cell research, a copy of a recent Vatican document on bio-ethics in which the Holy See explains its opposition to such practices.
"Dignitas Personae" (dignity of a person) condemns artificial fertilization and other techniques used by many couples and also says human cloning, "designer babies" and embryonic stem-cell research are immoral.
The document defends life from conception to natural death and a Vatican statement issued after the meeting said the topics discussed included "the defense and promotion of life and the right to abide by one's conscience."
(Continued . . .)
ReplyDeleteThe pope's private secretary told reporters after the meeting: "This reading can help the president better understand the Church's position on these issues."
"We know that this (abortion) is a crucial theme for the pope. There is no need to hide it. It (giving him the booklet) was an attempt to be clear, it was not polemical," Lombardi said.
The White House said Obama wanted to work together on a range of issues with the Vatican.
"He is eager to find common ground on these issues and to work aggressively to do that," said Denis McDonough, deputy national security adviser, adding that there may be some issues where they cannot come to agreement.
Lombardi said the pope was "very impressed" by Obama and that the pontiff was "extremely satisfied" with the talks.
Obama told the pope during a picture-taking session after the private part of the audience: "We look forward to a very strong relationship between our two countries."
The pope also gave the president a copy of his latest encyclical, "Charity in Truth," which called for a "world political authority" to manage the global economy and for more government regulation of national economies to pull the world out of the current crisis and avoid a repeat.
Obama, who was going to the airport from the Vatican, joked to the pope when he gave him the two documents: "I'll have something to read on the plane."
Unlike his predecessor George Bush, Obama and the pope do not see eye-to-eye on abortion rights and embryonic stem cell research.
The Vatican condemns embryonic stem cell research, which scientists say can lead to cures for diseases such as Alzheimer's, because it involves the destruction of embryos.
Before he arrived at the Vatican, Michelle Obama and their children Malia and Sasha were given a private tour of St Peter's Basilica and the Sistine Chapel. Michelle Obama joined her husband and the pope after the private talks ended.
"CELL PHONES THAT LISTEN AND LEARN"
ReplyDeleteNEW SOFTWARE THAT TRACKS A USERS BEHAVIOR BY MONITORING EVERYDAY SOUNDS-
"Researchers are increasingly using cell phones to better understand users' behaviour and social interactions. The data collected from a phone's GPS chip or accelerometer, for example, can reveal trends that are relevant to modeling the spread of disease, determining personal health-care needs, improving time management, and even updating social-networks. The approach, known as reality mining, has also been suggested as a way to improve targeted advertising or make cell phones smarter: a device that knows its owner is in a meeting could automatically switch its ringer off, for example.
Now a group at Dartmouth College, in Hanover, NH, has created software that uses the microphone on a cell phone to track and interpret a user's activity. The software, called SoundSense, picks up sounds and tries to classify them into certain categories. In contrast to similar software developed previously, SoundSense can recognize completely unfamiliar sounds, and it also runs entirely on the device. SoundSense automatically classifies sounds as "voice," "music," or "ambient noise." If a sound is repeated often enough or for long enough, SoundSense gives it a high "sound rank" and asks the user to confirm that it is significant and offers the option to label the sound..."
"In testing, the SoundSense software was able to correctly determine when the user was in a particular coffee shop, walking outside, brushing her teeth, cycling, and driving in the car. It also picked up the noise of an ATM machine and a fan in a particular room. The results of the experiments will be presented this week at the MobiSys 2009 conference, in Krakow, Poland."

ReplyDeleteMore depressing news from friends of Bjorn who emailed me enclosing still another very recent picture of Bjorn and his girlfriend which he had on another website: Bjorn was only asked to leave his church after he refused to give up the extramarital relationship with the girlfriend of who he speaks in BLUE GOD STAR. She is 22 years old. According to this letter, Bjorn was not "Kicked out" as he told us. He abandoned his wife and children. He left them without money and this friend of the family said that Bjorn did have ample money to support his family, but was refusing to do so. She sent two pictures, one of which I already had from another concerned Freiberg family friend. Bjorn was not kept from seeing his children -- Bjorn refused to see his children. I have not had time to verify it, but the correspondent told me that Bjorn had filed for divorce against his wife, the mother of his children. Bjorn's wife is a physician; however, she has been out of the field for approximately 14 years, Bjorn having wished her to be a stay at home mother.
ReplyDeleteI know there are those here, such as Roma and maybe Leana, who believe Bjorn has repented. I wrote him privately several days ago and have not heard back from him. If Bjorn had truly believed we are in the serious times his own writings suggested, I would have thought he would have been terrified to cross God in this fashion.
I am still praying for him, but I can't help but think that Bjorn, a cross-cultural communications specialist may have been scoping out our networks in a possible form of psychometric mapping.

I'm going to make a few key points to highlight the significance of the information posted above by Joyce about the 3rd Congress of Leaders of World and Traditions. Lest anyone think because the initiating country for the formation of the "Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions" was Kazakhstan - a country most of us have never heard of before, let alone see any reason to be concerned about - less than one month ago, June 11, 2009; a bill ( H. Res. 535) was introduced at the 111th Congress of the United States of America. H. Res.535: "Commending the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions for calling upon all nations to live in peace and mutual understanding." The bill was sponsored by relatively unknown U.S. Congressman Democrat Eni F.H. Faleomavaega (American Samoa). Co-sponsored by 27 other Delegates and State Representatives. Full Text of H. Res. 535 may be read at the following link:
ReplyDeletehttp://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:h.res.535:
Further detail regarding status, and sponsorship :
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=hr111-535
Back ground:
"Over years of independence Kazakhstan developed the unique model of the society of interethnic and interconfessional concord well-known and recognized as "Kazakhstani path" all over the world. Our country became common native home, where the representatives of 130 nationalities and more than 40 religious confessions coexist peacefully, and tolerance is not only the standard of political culture but also one of utmost key supported and developed principles of the state. It is natural that unique Kazakhstani experience appeared needed at the world level on the background of interethnic and interconfessional conflicts arising from time to time. It is no coincidence that namely Astana city became the place for meeting and dialogue area of religious leaders of the world community. "
"The Heads of the greatest states - Russia, the USA, Great Britain, France, Egypt, authoritative officials - Kofi Annan, George Bush Senior, Margaret Thatcher, Michael Gorbachev, and the leaders of various religious confessions supported this idea."
"The first Congress of Leaders of World Traditional Religions was held in Astana in 2003. The purpose of the forum was to activate the search of universal guidelines in the world and traditional religions, and establish regular international interconfessional institute to enable the dialogue of the civilizations and take coordinated decisions.
The representatives of 17 religious organizations of Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Shintoism, Daoism and other confessions took part in the forum.
http://www.religions-congress.org/content/view/204/51/lang,english/
"Kazakhstan’s initiative - which is supported by the United Nations - is a timely measure. The Congress has gained wide recognition from other major international forums such as the Alliance of Civilizations, the Community of Sant’Egidio, Asia House and the Tony Blair Foundation – all of which have expressed their intention to participate in its on-going work.

The stated purpose of the gathering is identical to all other current interreligious gatherings. There are many paths to God, there is not just one way of salvation,
Jesus is no more relevant than any other prophet, and it is only an unkind, unloving, religious extremist bigot who would insist otherwise. Follow our example and there will be peace on earth.
Continued Below
"The new Kazakh initiative to proclaim 2010 as the International Year of Cultural Rapprochement was recognized at the 1st Forum of the Alliance of Civilizations, which took place under the aegis of UN in Madrid early last year. Last November saw adoption of the UN General Assembly Resolution on 3rd Congress of World and Traditional Religion Leaders in 2009 in Astana with the participation and technical support of UN, which became another step to using the spiritual and ethical potential of world religions to solve international conflicts, counteract global threats and overcome xenophobia and intolerance.

PYRAMID/PALACE OF PEACE AND RECONCILIATION (Began building in March 2005/Opened June 2006)
"It will be one of the modern wonders of the world. A great pyramid, set in a brand-new capital city on the central Asian steppes. A pyramid that is to be a global centre for religious understanding, a symbol of world peace. It has more space inside than London's St. Paul's Cathedral, or Istanbul's Hagia Sophia."
The most interesting aspect of this entire topic for me was reading about the Pyramid/Palace of Peace and Reconciliation a 'global centre for religious understanding' that was designed and built specifically to
host the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions. Kazakhstan President Nursultant Nazarbayev commissioned Britain's Norman Foster as the
designer/architect. Foster chose the pyramid shape because it is has no negative religious connotations.
"Bathed in the golden and pale blue glow of the glass (colours taken from the Kazakhstan flag), 200 delegates from the world's main religions will meet every three years in a circular chamber - based on the United Nations Security Council in New York. The chamber is perched high beneath the point of the pyramid on four huge struts intended, says Foster, to "symbolise the hands of peace""

Dear Bjorn,
I was contacted some time ago by friends of your family who were extremely concerned by what they continued to tell me was your double life. I discounted it all until I was sent the link to the Blue God Star and read it for myself. Nobody has felt worse than me. IF you have repented, that's one thing. I have had spies sent before to infiltrate our ranks and they did convincing jobs of making me think they were true friends and believers. Are you "Far More" or are you "Farmer." Are you a follower of Jesus or a follower of Shiva? Shiva is a synonym for Satan in the Satanic bible. Are you against the "Mark of the Beast" or are you enthusiastically seeking an initiate's mark for you and your girlfriend in your foreheads. Last I heard from you personally, you were married to a physician and loved her very much. Then somebody several weeks ago sent me the attached photo which they tell me you were bold enough to post on line. It has struck me, rightly or wrongly, that if you truly believed we were in the serious times we are, you would be fearful for your very eternal soul to do these things. "{Let no man beguile you out of your reward" is what Jesus instructed.
The comments surrounding your other blogspot also indicate you were well regarded in the communities of those with like beliefs.
I am attaching the picture. If you do want to talk with me later today, my telephone number at my office is 248-253-0333. My skypein line is 248-686-1409. If you have access to video skype, we could do a video call so we could talk, albeit electronically, face to face.

Bjorn's behavior is demonstrating a lack of repentance, and as far as I'm concerned the REAL Bjorn is emerging as "Far More".
ReplyDeleteNot really sure how my name got brought into this, Constance. I have said very little publically about this.
ReplyDeleteI don't have hours to spend re-researching all the background story on Bjorn, nor am I privy to the private communtications you have received. I was reserving personal judgment until the dust settled, and more evidence was provided. I have sent a personal communication to Bjorn, but have not received a reply.
I just don't care for accusations to be made publically, in front of non-Christians, when I was taught in church that we handle matters privately. I understand that you feel it reflects on the integrity of the blog for you to make this public, but my understanding is that nothing truly disappears from the internet, and should Bjorn repent in the future, his life could be severly ruined from a public record of a past indiscretion.
Sorry, I am not taking sides on this one.
Leana
Leana, Bjorn has only himself to blame for the publicity, he chose to lead a double life on the internet and he had to be exposed in that context.
ReplyDeleteWhen will Christians get mad and intolerant of those who bring reproach to the gospel? When will Christian mark those who cause division (as Bjorn) and seperate themselves....I get sick of those who rally to the side of unrepentent trouble makers!
Paul said to Timothy "Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm. May the Lord repay him according to his works. YOU ALSO must be aware of him, for he has greatly resisted our words."
We are not in a local church context and this could not be handled as such. Don't worry about Bjorn's future, he has no business in leadership positions, he has proven he can't be trusted.
I think of the radio program entitled "Let My People Think". Seems appropriate right now.

I hope this "Bjorn" thing is all a terrible mistake...however, I am compelled to say to Leana sometimes these kinds of things aren't real to us so long as they are "happening to someone else." It's easy to hide behind Christian platitudes when it's someone else's life and family, not ours.
I hope you are never faced with the living hell of your husband betraying you and your children.
Has anybody here heard of something called psychometric mapping or psychometric tools. I understand it is a technique used to measure attitudes and connections.

ReplyDeleteNow that I have received even more emails and phone calls this morning concerning my desire to reserve judgment I guess I must address this here.
I was raised on the notion that one is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Since this is a blogspot and not a court of law, I realize the rules may not apply.
I am not rallying to the side of troublemakers, other than to give someone the benefit of the doubt. If anyone here knows me, I am very conservative and reserved in how I interpret things. As I said, what I spoke, I did with the information I had available. I would sure hope someone might speak up for me if and when accusations were given...
Many here have been vocal with their righteous indignation against someone who we felt for years was a fellow brother in the faith. How quickly they will turn against someone. I am NOT disregarding what Bjorn is accused of, nor am I sitting here as the judge. If I sit back and try to remember my first comment on this blogspot concerning this issue, it was that I was deeply saddened.
These kinds of charges are serious to make against someone. I know through years of reading Constance that she is very careful in documenting her research. I believe she is sincere in her belief that the information she has is accurate. However, since I have not been privy to all that she knows, nor have the rest of us, I don't know how anyone here can declare Bjorn's guilt by one persons word alone... two if you count Rich.
The call for her to take it public on her blogspot is hers and hers alone. I probably would have handled it differently, had I been given the kind of information she has.
Please don't expect me to be wise beyond my years, if I have erred on this, may the LORD correct my discernment. Again... I am just deeply saddened.
Leana
Thank you other anonymouses... I am glad I had the courage to sign my name, even though I had to hide behind my Christian platitudes to do so.
ReplyDeletePerhaps I have not lived that particular living hell so to speak, but I have had my own version.. it taught me compassion, and mercy, and forgiveness, not rushing to judgment, and to trust in the LORD.
I am so happy for you all to have given you the opportunity to rail against someone new, but it makes me realize that you still never really got my point. I am not defending that which Bjorn is accused.
Examine yourself and see which part of the gospel message you are forgetting to read as you pick up those stones....
Leana
Examine yourself and see which part of the gospel message you are forgetting to read as you pick up those stones....
ReplyDeleteLeana
............................
Leana you aren't in Saudi Arabia being stoned, or being forced to march off to combat in Flanders Field; you are being held to account for referring to allegations of adultery (something bad enough on its own but an absolute horror for a parent with young children) as an "indiscretion."
Perhaps the crosses you have borne personally have caused you to develop compassion, but where you choose to direct that compassion appears, from what you have written on this threa, to be selective.
I should have put the word "Christian" in quotes. I think what you are spewing are platitudes disguised as "Christian" truth, Leana.
I agree with you on one point, I want the facts on this to come out. But I've read the Blue Dog Star website and some of the other links and I am not optimistic.
With regard to trusting in the Lord, I think most people here regardless of their disagreements trust in the Lord. Just because someone disagrees with you (which you call "railing against") it doesn't automatically mean that person does not trust the Lord, but Leana does.
I can only imagine how Mrs Frieberg must have felt when she read your post. As a Christian I felt I had to stand up for Mrs Freiberg since you clearly were not.
Anon 2:47
ReplyDeletePlease re-read what I wrote with a different slant... I am not that dramatic. I don't write anything like this on the internet with the tone you are implying.
Perhaps my "stoning" comment was taken with the wrong meaning. I was referring to when Jesus told the people, when they were about to stone the adultress, you who are without sin... cast the first stone.
My sense of politeness was the reason I used the word indiscretion, not that I don't understand what it entails.
My goal was to address the gossip factor occurring here, not to excuse the behavior he is accused of. I am sorry for Bjorn and his family, and I do know that where the Lord reigns, the fruit of the spirit do as well.
Leana
Why do some on this blog feel the need to set themselves up as Bjorn's judge and jury?
ReplyDeleteWhatever is happening is between Bjorn and God. Bjorn needs our prayers - not our condemnation.
It's as if some want to quickly distance themselves from the unwashed or unclean. In so doing, does that make the rest of you feel all clean and pure?
What a dangerous illusion!
Whatever is happening is between Bjorn and God. Bjorn needs our prayers - not our condemnation.
ReplyDeleteActually Farmer (Bjorn) needs both.
Bjorn brought people other than God into this equation when he published the "other" blog, which he admits he authored and is not a forgery to smear his reputation.
Can't speak to Farmer's family issues since like Leana I have no evidence, but the "other blog" speaks for itself.
And no, it doesn't make me feel all clean and pure to condemn Bjorn any more than it makes me feel "clean and pure" when I run across pornography, it just makes me feel sickened.
Notice whom Bjorn has in his footnotes. For instance, Baigent and Lincoln, and Tracy Twyman, quoted as if they were reasonable reporters rather than drama-providers. B and L wrote "Holy Grail" twice, completely different books, to cater to the current fads...the first one was actually more of a documentary, worth reading. I started to learn about my own Templar genealogy from their first book, but that interesting research is not in the second. I have gone a lot way further in research since then.
ReplyDeleteActually I wonder myself why Bjorn
should not be exposed for what he has done on line and then admitted with friendship into the company of sinners. I was a heavy duty New Age researcher at one time, into the nuts and bolts of how one deals with a Kundalini crisis...I was even known as a "problem" by some big shot New Agers, most of whom now have moved out of popularity...and I'm here, sort of, as my heart is really at Home.
I repented, but so did Bjorn, unless we just don't believe repentance is real.
I'd look at his footnotes instead of booting him off, to see what kind of writing he considers "valid."

This has been a hard pill to swallow. I want to trust farmer. His actions since this has happened have not seen consistent with what He claims on his blog. For example if this is something from his past, why not contact Constance immediately or better yet tell her it was out there?
ReplyDeleteWhy shut down the comments on his blog? Why doesn't he answer email?
If a person is out to get you, would not a person say, hey I have made these enemies and they are after me?
I would think the burden of proof is now on Bjorn.
I am praying for him and his family.

ReplyDeleteI am praying for him and his family.
Wise words, Dawn.
Bjorn has neither explained nor answered any of the difficult questions asked of him. Is his apology because he got caught? His multiple posts on Arrowsmith's blog indicate he was kindred with those who worship Shiva. No explanation whatsoever has been offered.
ReplyDeleteArrowsmith's comment on Blue Star blog "I'm currently in the process of writing about the connection between the Blue One
and Pan [another name for Satan]. I've been looking at the symbol of the Horn (which I believe is symbolic of the opening of the 3rd Eye/Christ Consciousness) and here I find you describing your
girlfriends dream about a Horn growing from her forehead! There's some weird syncstuff
going on here but I'm really excited about the can of worms you've just opened."
I'm sorry, but if someone attempted to advance the "Krist consciousness", Pan, or Shiva on my blog you can bet I'd have been all over them.
This does not pass the smell test. Bjorn's acted publicly hoping we'd not notice. I will continue to support Constance.

If and when Constance decides to post the rest of the story, then you might get the larger picture. Until then, all I can suggest is that if you are interested, go do a search on his name through Google and under preferences put "any language." Remember that there are two parts to the New Age movement, "spirituality" and politics.

Dear Constance,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words. I hope the weather stays nice.
1 Corinthians 5:
ReplyDelete"6 Your boasting about this is terrible. Don’t you realize that this sin is like a little yeast that spreads through the whole batch of dough? 7 Get rid of the old “yeast” by removing this wicked person from among you. Then you will be like a fresh batch of dough made without yeast, which is what you really are...
9 When I wrote to you before, I told you not to associate with people who indulge in sexual sin. 10 But I wasn’t talking about unbelievers who indulge in sexual sin, or are greedy, or cheat people, or worship idols. You would have to leave this world to avoid people like that. 11 I meant that you are not to associate with anyone who claims to be a believer yet indulges in sexual sin, or is greedy, or worships idols, or is abusive, or is a drunkard, or cheats people. Don’t even eat with such people.
12 It isn’t my responsibility to judge outsiders, but it certainly is your responsibility to judge those inside the church who are sinning. 13 God will judge those on the outside; but as the Scriptures say, “You must remove the evil person from among you.”
Enough said?
All,
ReplyDeleteI actually have to agree with Dorothy here. Following this same advice she posted previously, I found there is a lot out there on Bjorn Freiberg. One needs a language translator as much of it is in german, but it is these things which may speak more to his true nature. If you are simply looking at his blogs that are in english, you are missing a lot.

To be fair, here, I tried doing the search as Dorothy suggested. I spent 2 hours trying to wade through links, translating pages, and I still never found anything. Most of the hits came up in languages that I could not recognize, so I don't know how to translate them. It is not that I am incapable of researching, I am just not finding what you are hinting at. I made it to google page 7, before I had to move on. Perhaps some of us need to be spoon fed. This is more time than I had to devote to this, sorry, I am moving on now.
ReplyDeleteLeana
Mariel,
ReplyDeleteI know of no repentance by Bjorn. I sincerely wish there were. The affair with his girlfriend (the one who had the "dream" of the horn growing from her forehead) continues and so does the rejection of his wife and kids. He was not truthful about his church putting him out for something that happened seven years ago. He was put out for his recent unrepented affair. I have two pictures of Bjorn and the girlfriend together which I'm told that Bjorn himself put up on one of his relatively private websites. It looks to me as though Bjorn was SORRY he was caught -- he is not sorry in the least for the mixing of Shiva and Jesus, the writing for the New Agers and giving them aid and comfort, and certainly not for the extreme grief he has caused his own family.

ReplyDeleteMedvedev Shows Off Sample Coin of New ‘World Currency’ at G-8
ReplyDeleteJuly 10 (Bloomberg) -- Russian President Dmitry Medvedev illustrated his call for a supranational currency to replace the dollar by pulling from his pocket a sample coin of a “united future world currency.”
“Here it is,” Medvedev told reporters today in L’Aquila, Italy, after a summit of the Group of Eight nations. “You can see it and touch it.”
The coin, which bears the words “unity in diversity,” was minted in Belgium and presented to the heads of G-8 delegations, Medvedev said.
The question of a supranational currency “concerns everyone now, even the mints,” Medvedev said. The test coin “means they’re getting ready. I think it’s a good sign that we understand how interdependent we are.”
Medvedev has repeatedly called for creating a mix of regional reserve currencies as part of the drive to address the global financial crisis, while questioning the U.S. dollar’s future as a global reserve currency. Russia’s proposals for the G-20 meeting in London in April included the creation of a supranational currency.
From Bloomberg News (07/10/09):
ReplyDeleteSwine Flu Kills People Whose Bodies Are Highly Stressed
The World Health Organization states:
The majority of those who died were pregnant, had asthma, diabetes or other chronic diseases...
Moreover, extremely obese people are susceptible. As Bloomberg writes:
Scientists don’t yet know whether extremely overweight people get sicker because of associated conditions like heart disease and asthma, or whether the excess fat itself makes them more vulnerable.
The common thread in all of these conditions appears to me to be that swine flu killed people whose bodies were stressed - either by illness, extreme obesity or pregnancy. Pregnancy is a wonderful thing, but it is stressful to the mother's body.
Handwashing, good nutrition, higher doses of Vitamin D, exercise, adequate sleep and stress relief techniques - if you don't know any others, just breathe slowly and deeply for several minutes - can only help. Some also claim that certain probiotics can help prevent the flu (see also this).
This is not to say that proper medical precautions should not be taken or that medical treatment should not be sought. They should . . . but only to the extent that they cause more good than harm. For example, some vaccines are life savers, while others cause more deaths than they prevent (and see this).
Update: I spoke with a very smart doctor, who generally agreed with my analysis. However, she explained that a woman's immune system is depressed during pregnancy (so that the mother's immune system won't reject the baby) and that seriously obese people tend to also have health problems, such as asthma or diabetes.
It seems, then, that he has cut himself off from this blog, so perhaps it's time to forget the incident. Unless it is thrust back into our faces. by what happens next, whatever that is.
ReplyDeleteWe have a forest fire where I live the past 4 days, reminiscent of the one which drove us all out of town 9 years ago. it is poisonous smoke. No word of what is going on.
It is a bad day, July 11 on the Flynn calendar. No word on that either.
Dear Constance and friends,
ReplyDeleteI've stayed silent on these unfolding matters (and on a few matters that came to the forefront on a few previous threads) because I wanted time to research, pray, and consider carefully the words that I say.
It has been with increasing conviction that I heed the wisdom in Ecclesiastes 5:2,
"Therefore, let your words be few.", and in James 3:5,6,13 "Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles! And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell. Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom."
I know that I will be held in account before God for every word typed or spoken.
Although we don't have a personal relationship, Constance, I know that your track record for being faithful in exposing evil/danger, where-ever it may be found, has been tried and true over these many years.
I have witnessed, through your many works, both your unfailing determination to bring to light things "hidden" in darkness (although often in plain sight), as well as your humble and gracious heart towards many who have been deceived or who may be deceiving others through ignorance of their own deceit. This is a rare quality. I feel blessed and encouraged to understand, through your work and the work of others, that both are necessary on the spiritual battlefield.
I am confident that you spoke up in the manner that you chose, regarding Bjorn, because it became absolutely necessary to do so.
I am urgently praying for Bjorn and his family.
I'm also continuing to pray for you, Constance, for your work, and your husband.
May God grant you wisdom, courage, and strength for the spiritual battlefield yet to come.
By His Grace,
-SV
JD and Doug-
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads-up about
the G8/Sample Coin etc.
Have either of you seen this very new website (July 2009) for
'United Future World Currency'? From what I'm reading the coin Medvedev retrieved from his pocket was a 'test coin' from the "Project" for a new global currency. Check out the headings at the top of the home page. There isn't a LOT of information but there are plenty of leads to do some follow-up digging. Under
"The Tests" they have a brief outline about something called
'ETG System' - "A system that raises the security level on authenticity for all types of paper documents." (banknotes etc.) They decribe a technology that integrates two technologies: Cryptography & Barcode.
Under the heading 'G8' it says, in
reference to the test coins:
"The Royal Mint of Belgium has been the first to issue a test coin for this new currency, a special rare gold edition that will be gifted at the forthcoming G8 Summit. The coin has been designed by Luc Luycx, author of the common side of the Euro coins.
The project will study security and anti-counterfeit measures; meanwhile, experimentation to seek innovative solutions for an “intelligent” money are also underway with an university.
The currency will also undergo an important public test run at the 2015 Milan Universal Expo."

Anonymous 3:00 said--"Since long before his papacy, Joseph Ratzinger has vigorously fought the United Nations' vision of a 'New World Order'. As early as 1997, and repeated subsequently, Ratzinger took public aim at such a vision, noting that the philosophy coming from UN conferences and the Millennium Summit "proposes strategies to reduce the number of guests at the table of humanity, so that the presumed happiness [we] have attained will not be affected."
ReplyDelete"At the base of this New World Order", he said is the ideology of "women's empowerment," which erroneously sees "the principal obstacles to [a woman's] fulfillment [as] the family and maternity." The then-cardinal advised that "at this stage of the development of the new image of the new world, Christians - and not just them but in any case they even more than others - have the duty to protest.""
The RCC "Never Arrives"... that is the speciality to their erroneous ways in the vatican/papacy. It's as if they were never there and they come out clean as a whistle!!! Can we get it people...the RCC is wicked--drenched in lies! Those of you who hold a torch for them lie in their deceit! They are WORLD MASTERS at twisting the truth.

ReplyDeletethe bigger prize - in my view for those who seek control is what Japan is considering - using no physical money at all - just electronic. Perhaps the extension in the rumblings in the economy are to foster a sense in people that would be the safest way to go.

EU'S SOLANA CALLS FOR UN TO RECOGNIZE PALESTINIAN STATE-
ReplyDelete"European Union's foreign policy chief urges Security Council to set tangible deadline for formation of Palestinian state, endorse overall solution for issues of border parameters, refugees, control over Jerusalem and security arrangements
"After a fixed deadline, a UN Security Council resolution should proclaim the adoption of the two-state solution," Solana said, adding this should include border parameters, refugees, control over the city of Jerusalem and security arrangements."
"It would accept the Palestinian state as a full member of the UN, and set a calendar for implementation. It would mandate the resolution of other remaining territorial disputes and legitimize the end of claims," Solana went on.
"Advocating a return to Israel's borders before the 1967 war with Egypt, Syria and Jordan in which it took the West Bank, Solana said mediators should set a timetable for a peace agreement."
"If the parties are not able to stick to it (the timetable), then a solution backed by the international community should be put on the table," He said.

IRS TELLS PRO-LIFERS TO GIVE UP THEIR 1ST AMMENDMENT RIGHTS-
ReplyDelete"The Internal Revenue Service has told members of the Coalition for Life of Iowa they would have to give up their 1st Amendment rights in order to be recognized as a non-profit organization, according to a complaint being pursued by members of the Thomas More Society..."
"However, an IRS agent then contacted the Coalition, through its president Susan Martinek, demanding to know whether the group "engaged in any 'picketing' or 'protest' activities at Planned Parenthood. … You then asked Ms. Martinek to have all Coalition Board members sign a statement that the Coalition will not 'picket' or 'protest' outside of Planned Parenthood or similar organizations and will not 'organize' others to do so," the law firm's letter said."
"This is not only political intimidation by the Internal Revenue Service but it is a blatant violation of First Amendment rights," Brown said. "Neither the Coalition for Life of Iowa nor any other educational and advocacy organization should be subjected to such discriminatory scrutiny. This is a clear case of government repression."

ReplyDeleteI ran into his name when I began my research of the "gifted" program our child was victim of in the Ohio public/government school. That was 15 years ago. Moreno, Hilda Taba, Krathwohl, Benjamin Bloom, and a raft of others. The social scientists who took over "education" years ago resulting in what we now are taxed for. Hilda Taba (Estonian) had a specialty in making up test questions to scope out stuff without the answerer knowing what was being scoped out.

Hiya, Constance, I dont know you, nor have i read your output, but Bjorn seemed cool enough to me - he even commented on my blog which seems strange for a "bad-'un".
ReplyDeleteNevertheless, I thought a fundamental of Chritianity was forgiveness - that is if bjorn has in fact tranggressed some sort of Biblical law.
Let's be frank here, Christianity has a poor image amongst people, often becuase "values" are taken too literally, or and additionally, in a double-standard manner.
For instance, there are three churches close to me. On A Sunday, drivers park anywhere, their huge, freshly cleaned, 4wd's blocking lanes etc. Afterwards they gather outside the church, dressed impeccably; one can almost feel the self deluded "goodness" drifting from them, like a bisto kid.
Yet these people are not christians, not insofar as Jesus taught.
cheers, no offence.
It WOULD BE government intimidation IF
ReplyDeleteThe Federal Reserve was part of the government, but it isn't. In fact it's niether Federal nor anything else but a private extremely rich bank.
Read: "The Creature From Jeckyll Island" by G. Edward Griffin to begin to realize the absurdity of the IRS telling any of us what we can't or can't do.
The BANKSTERS snuck the Federal Reserve Act through Congress in 1913 during the Christmas holiday when almost no one was in attendance.
They've been robbing the United States ever since and they are a criminal syndicate, which apparently no one in Congress has the guts to take on, with the possible exception of Ron Paul who may or may not be simply a double agent himself.
I know it sounds ridiculous, but there are thousands of researchers who have all come to the same conclusion.
The IRS is the proverbial 600 lb gorilla in the room that no one mentions....
Ben Bernanke, Alan Greenspan, Paul Volcker, Paul Wolfewitz, The Rockefellers, etc are all part of a cartel. It's a cartel that runs this country, not the stooges that they put in office, and like any private bank the only concern is profits, not the good of the customers.

ReplyDeleteDear Constance!
I'm a friend of Freiberg family. I would like to send you photos from Björn's other faces from his internet side. www.iwiw.hu
Björn didn't lose his family. He turned his family adrift.
He wasn't kicked out from home. He scuttled away his family for a reason he wanted to live together with his 22 years old student from the university. (see photos from Dr. PHD. Freiberg Björn's profil)
His church didn't kick him out. He can go back in the moment, when he comes repentance, he stops his relationship and he return to Jesus. He didn't want and he doesn"t want till now. He is not able to break from his student, he started divorce proceeding.
Please, pray for the family and for the children. If you are saddened, you can imagine that the children and his wife must be really hurting.(They are in big financial trouble, not Björn who has job and money, but is not enough for him and for his relationship)
Everybody who knows Björn thinks that he is really crazy, man with two faces. But the "old" Björn is dead soon...Please, pray for Björn too, to break from this occult life and return to God and his family till is not too late...
God bless you!

FDIC INSURANCE FUND-IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY EXIST:
ReplyDelete"When FDIC head Shelia Bair says her agency might have to bolster the FDIC's insurance fund with Treasury borrowings to pay for the new spate of bank failures, a lot of us, this 40-year banking veteran included, assumed there's an actual FDIC fund in need of bolstering."
"We were wrong. As a former FDIC chairman, Bill Isaac, points out here, the FDIC Insurance Fund is an accounting fiction. It takes in premiums from banks, then turns those premiums over to the Treasury, which adds the money to the government's general coffers for "spending . . . on missiles, school lunches, water projects, and the like.""
"The insurance premiums aren't really premiums at all, therefore. They're a tax by another name."
"Actually, it's worse than that. The FDIC, persisting in the myth that its fund really is an insurance pool, now proposes to raise the "premiums" it charges banks to make up for the "fund's" coming shortfall. The financially weakest banks will be hit with the biggest tax hikes."

ReplyDeleteHow did you like the pictures Constance posted? Doesn't Bjorn look repentant to you. Maybe, if he doesn't repent, his Blue God Star will have him in his hands!
You're very welcome SV.
ReplyDeleteThat book is amazing and by the authors' own suggestion, a person can actually jump around and
skim, or read it through, but the historical (hysterical) facts are well known and well verified.
Such as the fact that when this little group of bankers met secretly to devise the Fed, they decided to name it the Federal Reserve SYSTEM, just to deflect peoples awareness of the fact that it's a private BANK. It's a system all right.
In fact a lot of the complexity of the whole system is intentional obfuscation just to intimidate and
keep people in the dark. The Federal Reserve caused the Great Depression back then, and it's causing this one now.
The mother bank is the Crown, or Bank of England,
and we're paying interest to them on every dollar we use. In fact the gigantic federal deficit that we hear about is a debt of interest money, not principle. That's the same debt that China has purchased so much of, from the Crown, aka World Bank, aka Bank of International Settlements, aka
Central Bank of all Central Banks. There are only a handful of countries in this world who do NOT owe
huge money to the Central Bank.
Sitting at the top of the Central Bank is one Jacob Rothschild, owner. His sister is actiually running things these days.
The crooks that originally set up the Fed here in the U.S., were known Rothschild agents, and or Rockefeller agents.
Now, apparently, the idea of a world taxation has them drooling with anticipation. A world tax is going to be the result of all this globalism and the tearing down of America. America is truly the worlds' last hope, because we could technically get rid of the Fed and go back to a real money system, by the people and for the people, but it's rather doubtful that we will.
To Bjorn,
ReplyDeleteIf you happen to still be reading this blog, please visit my blog and read what I have written.
My prayers are with you and your family.
The pictures I posted were pictures that Bjorn put up on the web in his local community. I would not have posted them but for his continued assertions that he was a broken man now working with Christian counseling. Those corresponding with me from there tell me there has been no repentance and he is still flaunting the fiasco. I feel worse than anybody about everything.

"California Western University built extensively on
ReplyDeletethe site in the 1960s but had no interest in keeping alive the architectural traditions of the Theosophists. In
1973 Cal Western sold the property to a Nazarene college founded in Pasadena in 1902. The Nazarenes,
largely under the leadership of Dwayne Little, professor of history, took a more appreciative approach to
what Tingley was trying to do. Historic preservation was in the air of the 1970s and 80s. Dr. Little
believed many of the spiritual, material, and political values of the Theosophists were compatible with
Nazarene-Wesleyan values. Dr. Little promoted not only historic preservation but also new use of
Theosophical architectural elements such as flattened arches, open-air curved stairways, and skylights.
Remaining buildings were restored with an eye toward continued educational use. The Spalding house,
designed with geometry in the naturalist/moralist tradition of Orson Fowler’s popular The Octagon House:
A Home for All, was beautifully restored inside and out. In 1983, Dr. Little spent the summer in a local
garage working with others to re-create the globe-skylight which now stands above the Spalding
house/Mieras Hall. What is now called Point Loma Nazarene University continues many of the best of
Point Loma Theosophist traditions: education with a spiritual bent and emphasis on ancient religious
wisdom; promotion of fine arts and theater in the San Diego region; a deep appreciation for creation and
Creator; and encouragement of social and political progress."
VERY, VERY DISTURBING TO ME COMING FROM A FAMILY WITH A STRONG CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE COMPONENT. DR. LITTLE WAS DOING THIS AT THE PEAK OF MY 1980S WORK AGAINST THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT!

hi! This template is simply super.. http://www.itsolusenz.com
ReplyDeleteYes Maam. I also noticed that each website, or link to a website, which was highlighted in blue, did disappear the second I clicked on it. I see the culmination, of these same things, on a much smaller scale, where I live. I finally learned, that the minister's meeting, in this community, about which I had heard so much over the years, actually meets in the blue lodge of Freemasonry. I had suspected this for some time. It was a sad day, when the Holy Spirit took me to the meeting, to confirm what I had suspected for some time: that a host of pastor's, in the town in which I live, are actually Freemasons. The majority! Pray for the Lord's strength, that I would continue to obey here, regardless the cost! I listened to you years ago, before I understood the Gospel.of Jesus Christ; and, that I had been raised in generational witchcraft, and needed to be saved and delivered.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless Ypu!
