What, if anything, should religion be focused on passing along to future ge

It was great food for thought so I decided to use... Read more »
Coptic Christmas : More than celebration in 2012
2012-01-07 00:27:00 And tonight is the Coptic Christmas aka Orthodox Christmas Eve , it is a great event without doubt and this year it is extremely important for three reasons : The Holy Family in Egypt "Virtual Khan" The first Christmas mass after the revolution. The first Christmas mass after a tough year where tens of Christian protesters were killed in clashes with security forces including the Maspero clashes. The first Christmas mass after the meteoric reason of Islamists in Egypt. There is no doubt that from 7th January 2011 to 7th January 2012 there is a huge change in the Egyptian Christian community , people are not afraid especially the Christian youth who began to refuse the Church guardianship when it comes to politics after years of Church?s domination. This Christmas Egyptian Christian youth held online Campaign to send a clear message to the Orthodox Church : Do not receive representatives of SCAF. Mina Daniel and his brothers were not killed in vain because actually his bloo...

THE RE-EDUCATION OF INDONESIA
2011-12-22 23:34:00 In an attempt to reclaim "lost" youth and restore "moral values," authorities in Indonesia are corralling dozens of punk teens and forcing them to give up their rebellious ways. The effort includes shaving the heads of many of the detainees, ridding them of their punk attire, and forcing them into a strict regimen of religion and military drills. Despite the clamp down, The Guardian reports, many of the teens are still rebelling and sticking to their punk ethics. Here's what one young man had to say about fighting the power:

Science is also a religion
2011-12-16 08:42:00 Theoretically speaking, science can never contradict religion. Even miracles have rational explanations. The rabbis were adamant that God does not perform miracles by violating the laws of nature. Nor do the historical accounts have to be accurate: the rabbis insisted that all of them were given only for the sake of their interpretation. Three questions distinguish religion from science: does God exist, how was the universe created, and what is the nature of life? The first proposition cannot be disproved. It cannot be proved, either, but at least it passes the Occam’s Razor test as the simplest explanation of observed phenomena. Scientific explanations of how the universe appeared border on religion because they are inherently unverifiable and use transcendent notions. Scientists declare that matter is eternal, thus sidestepping the issue of creation. Curiously, Genesis employs a similar approach when it says that the world was bara, ‘formed’ rather than ‘created.’ Th...

Dr John Hislop. Vaunted ?Perfect Disciple? of Sathya Sai Baba
2011-11-06 10:38:00 Like so many devotees, especially those close to Sathya Sai Baba, ex-foremost leader of the Sathya Sai Organization (outside India), Dr John Hislop knew very well that Sai Baba told lies. Devotees, however, pass these off as, variously, "Baba's funny little ways"; "his sparing of our feelings"; his "Leelas" (meaning his 'divine sportiveness' .... When writing, they use a capital 'L'); "his perfect 'Truth', but our human imperfection" which cannot see that he is teaching us some profound lesson, for example, in learning detachment; and more such Procrustean racking of human reason and commonsense. Sai Baba long exhorted that his devotees: "Love (him) for (his) Mystery". (Of course, his editors and other devotee writers capitalized the 'h' in 'him' and 'his' ..... Hislop also well knew that many devotees were in confusion about his many lies, all his predictions which failed, as did so many of his promised cures and e.g., of placements at his university or his colleges...
Religion, Law and the Need and Desire for Justice
2011-09-05 19:21:00 Triumph of Justice by Hans von Aachen Throughout history, people have been drawn to religion for a variety of reasons. Religious belief and practice often fulfill social, psychological and philosophical needs. Therein included are also the big existential questions like the purpose and meaning of life, the question of the afterlife, and a strong need, desire and longing for justice in a seemingly ambivalent world. The meaning of life is ultimately a highly subjective question and in this case I subscribe to the existential and multifarious trend of choosing the best path for the given individual or, to dress it in colloquial jargon, the unobtrusive and egalitarian ?whatever floats your boat? philosophy. When it comes to existence after existence, I have blogged about the mystery of the hereafter to a limited extent in my questions about the afterlife post. Here I would like to focus mainly on the need and desire for justice. As a child, we rely on our parents as the ever-present ...

Sathya Sai Baba Saga: Is There Too Little Indian Media Critical Analysis?
2011-07-08 16:21:00 Let my reader imagine that the following is a note of mine to an Indian media person seeking me out to assist in the development of a news story. It may take no prizes for diplomacy, but it is not far, I think, from the mood of both our former devotee network members from both India and other countries. First, Sai Baba and his key servitors on the Sai Central Trust and the international Sathya Sai Organization profoundly deceived and betrayd. From circa 2000, owing to both organized and informal activity of former devotees, a great deal of critical exposure of Sai Baba and his cult occurred. In some parts of the world, Sai Centers emptied, while, in general, many left, including many well-respected leaders. Next, allied with Sai Baba and his cult's officials, corrupt local, state and national government consolidated the evils done by their complicity in the cover up of the outrages - wide-scale sexual abuse by Sai Baba and some around him of boys and young men, Police executions ...
Sathya Sai Trust?s V.Srinivasan: Defending A Religious Empire Fallen. A Tor
2011-07-06 01:27:00 Unfortunately for Sathya Sai Trust spokesman V. Srinivasan and his (and Sathya Sai Baba's) already badly tattered credibility, Last Sunday, still more treasure was found in secret places in Sai Baba's private quarters. This time, the joint District Collector and her team searched for and found it. But, in a case of caught-out-yet-again, this lot of treasure DID NOT appear in the Trust's inventory, which the government of Andhra Pradesh had put the Trust on its Boy Scout's honor to make. Did the Sai Trustees obtain their spectacles or magnifying glasses from a manufacturer far superior to any the Trustees can manage to find? Srinivasan's earlier story was that huge amounts of money which police found being secretly removed by van and bus did not belong to the Trust but to twelve devotee donors.The India Daily reported (Tuesday 21 June 2011):

'Atheists for Islam' Happy to Support Religion?
2011-03-09 19:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Sometimes a single picture is enough to put the left's folly in crystal clear terms and we have one for you today. The current crop of militant atheists have been parading about the country wailing about how the evil, evil Christians are oppressing them by having non-sectarian things like "In God We Trust" on our money or allowing a manger scene on city property. That's some oppression, there, eh? Well, last weekend a photo was snapped that shows exactly what militant atheists really mean behind their rhetoric. Oh, they aren't against religion. They don't likely think they are being oppressed, either. No their real goal is rather simple. They are enemies of Christianity exclusively....
My life walking away from religion - it may not be what you expect.
2011-03-02 05:29:00 This will be a tough point to argue and explain, I know, but that is not true. It is not - often even to my disappointment - about recklessly abandoning all moral rules and social morays. I am human, so I feel the same pull to life without rules or policing as anyone, but the reality is that, as an adult, my conscience is intact. Though there are moments I secretly wish I could have a torrid affair or go on a combination cross country crime spree and wild drug binge at combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell restaurants in every state, I could never let myself do those things; religion or no religion.

?God? (Sathya Sai Baba) Blunders On! ? On History
2011-01-02 02:04:00 Sathya Sai Baba's blunders on history and science are big. For some science examples, see the articles cited at the foot of this page. Readers perturbed to see their friends, family or colleagues getting into the Sathya Sai Baba cult may consider - if the victims are not too far blinded - sharing such materials as highlighted in red, below. A great many educated people have learnt enough history to see what absurd nonsense is revealed in such claims of Sathya Sai Baba. Yet here is a man - of imperial wealth and vast sway over the minds of many, including those supposedly educated - who proclaims to the millions that he is all-knowing, all-seeing and all-powerful. And that he is the 'Avatar' (embodiment of God on earth) who will effectively transform the entire world in his own lifetime. Here is a man - and no god of any sort - at whose feet successive Indian Prime Ministers, Presidents and other eminences, across a wide religious and political spectrum, have repeatedly fallen...

Sai Baba Breaks Down and Sobs At 85th Birthday Celebration (Video Footage)

During his November birthday, Sathya Sai Baba - in the midst of being praised for all the good he has done - broke down and sobbed deeply and for some time. To see this video,

You Sold Yourself To The Devil , DO not Blame Anyone Except Yourself
2010-10-29 02:01:00 Because some did not believe the claims that the Egyptian regime is behind the Salafi channels and the Salafi trend in the country , the suspension of the Salafi channels revealed very interesting facts. Sheikh Safwat Hegazi revealed in a press conference at the syndication of journalists in Cairo that the regime asked from the Salafi trend to attack the Shiite from 5 years ago !! The man is even amazed why now the regime wants them to stop their attack on the Shiite accusing at the same time the regime of trying to get close to Iran to tease the States as the later wants to monitor the elections. Back in time from 5 years or to be accurate 4 years ago Hezbollah won over Israel in the Lebanon 2006 July war and it had this tremendous support in the Egyptian streets. I remember how the posters of Hassan Nasrallah were everywhere and people gathered to listen his speeches. The jewel of Hegazi?s statement is not his revelation that the regime ordered the Salafi channels to attack the ...

The Ghetto Mentality Both Ways
2010-10-24 17:13:00 Reuters published this very interesting report about the rise of the religious conservatism in Egypt by Yasmine Salah. I agree 100% with the first part that "Moderates are unable to enjoy their lives... We're under pressure to join one of the two extremes." I do not agree fully with the rest of the report , first of all I do not know why the media is overlooking the other exclusive club or uptown ghetto in town with all its radicalism , yes radicalism in showing off, radicalism in imitation and radicalism in disrespecting all our traditions and values. Already what is mentioned or regarded as extremism in this report is not considered extremism , it is not about head scarf or beaches or restaurants or showing your facing , it is about dangerous fatwas and notorious parties. Second of all this extremism with all its kinds is not only the result of economic factors or the return of Egyptian expats from the Gulf with alien new values and traditions as much it is mo...

They are calling for a billion pound campaign and believe me people will pay if this campaign goes from just a suggestion online ot the real world. I do not have a problem with donation to that satellite , I have problem with the facts that our food prices are soaring and the people only protest for the closure of these channels .I think it is luxury to protest the closure of these channels , I think it is craziness to demand the people to donate for a satellite when they can?t afford buying tomatoes and sooner beans !!

What pisses me off: Double standards about religion.
2010-10-12 18:56:00 So I'm browsing around one of the many sitewebs on the internets and I read a touching story about a girl. Someone says "bless her" and I not-so-kindly inform them to keep their bullshit out of this. Now, of course, I get bitched at. It may sound reasonable to you, but if it had been me saying "oh isn't she cute and btw god doesn't exist" I would have been told that my comment was inappropriate.Why are those different? Yes, I know that "bless you" is meant as a kind gesture but it's also a religious one in nature/origin. I don't see why you need to push your cultist bullshit when wishing someone well. Just keep it to yourself.I don't say "religion is bullshit" when someone sneezes so I'd appreciate the same kind of courtesy from religious people.My Zazzle Store

Commonwealth Games: ?Shining India?s? Mismanagement By Crisis. Sai Baba Not
2010-09-25 01:52:00 At the 11th hour, after India's fiasco-ridden series of chaotic mismanagements, India's Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh (a follower of Sathya Sai Baba), and emergency teams of officials are racing to save the 2010 Commonwealth Games. Former devotee writers and other critics correctly point (amid his many other failed predictions) to Sathya Sai Baba's inability to counteract - to all but the smallest degree - India's problems. (See the glaringly revealing scan from Sai Baba's close follower Dr John Hislop's book 'Conversations With Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba'', below). Despite the mass of contradictions and the vast corruptions in India, conscienceless attackers such as the Sathya Sai Baba man, Gerald Moreno of New Mexico, USA, allied with some of Sai Baba's notable followers, who stay in the background, accuses these critics of "India bashing". Such cultic blindess in a populist spokesperson is but the public face of countless Sai Baba followers whose heads are deeply ...
Institutional Sex Corruption: Plight of Roman Catholic Church and Sathya Sa
2010-09-19 01:00:00 In the face of far too powerful, worldwide exposure of endemic Roman Catholic Church corruption, Pope Benedict XVI has called for reconciliation. Only at this chronically late hour, and in the face of terrible and universal threat to his institution's survival, does he begin to treat sexual abuse as a reportable crime, and make apologies, and require his officials to take meaningful actions against the sexual abuse that the world now nows is rampant in his Church. It is the year 2010 and yet official communiques coming from the Vatican and other official sections of the Roman Catholic Church almost make it sound as though decades of sexual abuse complaints involving priests all over the world were something new. There may be contrite tears now, and official cries for reconciliation. But where were these down the decades of victims' anguish? The Sathya Sai Organization still has not come to this point. It too has lain low. It too has turned a hard heart of the cries of individua...

Although the documentary was first aired in mid 2004, it has since been viewed in many countries worldwide, contributing to enormous damage done to the Sathya Sai Baba Organizaton, and the repute of its founder and those of his following who have - in some cases wittingly and in a great many cases all too unwittingly covered up for him.

They, like many of us acquainted with compelling cases from around the world are in no doubt that Sathya Sai Baba has long been a serial sexual abuser of boys and young men, and other grave forms of abuse, including those by certain of his close associates. We laypersons can all learn, of course, more effective ways of managing shocking revelations that can occur in our lives. At the same time, the best of intentions can go awry if we mistake our limitations. We had to be aware, for example, that an abuse survivor who may sense urgency to warn and save others can risk unforeseen kinds of attack. This can relate to their families, professions, places of study, and so on. Those ... |
