Over thousands of years humans have recorded events that seem to suggest other worldly beings came down from the skies to visit earth. Earth has been around for over 831 billion years, who's to say that our ancestors have not been visited by extraterrestrial beings. Ancient theorist and Scientist point to the immense size of the universe and can see that other beings must exist somewhere else besides earth.
The Egyptians were the smartest civilization among their time, they created huge statues and monuments that still stand until this very day. The question is where did they get the technology and the mathematics to create such enormous figures? One stone alone weighs 1 - 20 tons, the figures are over 481 feet tall and the perimeter of the pyramid divided by two times the height would equal to pi (3.
1416...) up to the fifteenth digits. As advance as we are now we still do not have the technology to recreate these monuments as perfect as the Egyptians created it. The Egyptian hieroglyphics tell their history almost in complete detail however never do they mention the creation of these monuments. Is it because they did not create them?
The ancient text in various cultures make it very clear that many of our achievements happened due to extraterrestrials that had arrived. The Egyptians talks about the sky opening up and bright light coming down to teach them wisdom. All religion suggest that god came from the sky and ascended the earth, however where did religion begin and why is it that "god" and "aliens" have alot of resemblance?
If you research our ancient history their are many artifacts and hieroglyphics in ancient civilizations throughout different cultures that our ancestors worship the sky, way back to the cavemen. Astronaut theorist site as evidence the major similarities of isolated cultures all over the planet. Many different cultures all built immense structure to honor other world beings.
Why do so many ancient text seem to reference men flying in the sky. Why do the ancient Egyptians, Hopi Indians, and the Dogan Tribe of North Africa all believe there ancestors came from what we knew as the Constellation Sirius. The Egyptian pyramid were supposedly built to carry the corpse of the deceased Pharaohs, however scientist recently discovered that the three pyramids of Giza line up exactly to constellation of Orion's belt.
David Childress, the author of " Technology of the Gods" discusses how aliens may be among us, in the bible it discusses how we are made in the likeliness of "god" and in all ancient religions there is one thing they all have in common and that is that one day "god" will return, however what if god is really an extraterrestial being?
Their is evidence that suggest that it is possible that humans have been visited by extraterrestrials in the distant past and if we are to quick to discard that possibility then we might be shutting ourselves out from going farther then we have ever been. References:

What do you think of religion? Or what do you think of politics?
Well, seeing how this blog is mostly based around religious education, religious tolerance and religious beliefs, it would be rather hard for me to say I have an issue with religion in general. However, I am not a big fan of ORGANIZED religion, as the idea of anyone telling me what I am supposed to believe, think and feel is completely appalling! Religion in general however is one of my favorite subjects. I'm always researching and learning about different beliefs, paths, practices and traditions. It's completely fascinating to me as I feel there is no religion which we can not learn and grow from.
As for politics, I am, and always have been, very steadfast in my beliefs, and I have no issue standing up for what I believe in. But I feel that politics as a whole get lost in the drama of Washington. I prefer to stick to issues, and have open and honest discussions, with the welfare and freedom of everyone in mind. But much of the time we hear speeches and reports not about issues or facts, but about who did what when, who said what to whom and where the President may or may not have been born... It's tiresome and mindless! And it's NOT what politics should be!
But when that's all done I am a proud Liberal Democrat, I've said many times and I'll say again - I love my country way to much to be a Republican! I feel everyone, every man, woman & child, should be entitled to live their life the way they choose to so long as their life style causes no harm to another. I'm Pro-Choice, Pro-Woman, Pro-Religious Equality, Pro-Marijuana legalization and Pro-Death Penalty! I feel we should be cutting taxes for corporations which keep and create jobs HERE, and raising them for companies which send our jobs over seas! We should have equal taxes and equal deduction options regardless of income or family size! We should have higher standards for school teachers, medical doctors and psychiatrists. And we should NOT have laws forcing medication, vaccination or medical treatment on any free citizen! In addition we need to place more funding in to green, sustainable and Eco-friendly options for energy, fuel, building materials, farming & food production and consumer products! Healthcare should be made affordable, not by forcing citizens to purchase insurance, but by limiting the costs behind what makes it so outrageous in the first place - medications, malpractice insurance and schooling costs! And frankly I can keep going! It's very simple though, I believe in putting the individual first and making a country where EVERY CITIZEN has the tools and ability to be the best they can be - physically, mentally, spiritually, financially and economically!

Spring is in full swing here on the Georgia coast. We have had our fair share of April Showers thus far, and I imagine we will see more before the season is over. 'Tis fine by me. Rain is one of my favorite things. We always need rain.
Spring shows the world...well, the world of the northern hemisphere...going through its yearly 'rebirth'. Things get greener. The color of various spring flowers get tossed into the mix. Azaleas, and Hydrangeas are big around the condos. A building across the way is fronted by some Cherry trees that are in full bloom. Yes, there is a lot of floral beauty around here.
Easter happened this past Sunday. I am more of a Spring Equinox gal, so the religious connotations of Easter Sunday are somewhat passed over by me. However, I do appreciate the symbolism of the rabbit.
The days have been getting warmer...and longer. Gaia is going through changes. A rebirth. Enter one of the chief representatives of the Spring, the rabbit. A symbol of the ancient fertility goddess, Ostara (which is also the pagan name for the celebration of the Spring Equinox), the rabbit symbolizes abundance, fertility, vulnerability, sentiment, desire, and new beginnings.
The Easter Bunny put me in mind of some rabbit oriented quotes, and images. Thought I would share some. They are not necessarily 'Easter'
"R WAS A RABBIT,WHO HAD A BAD HABIT,OF EATING THE FLOWERSIN GARDENS AND BOWERS,
RNAUGHTY FAT RABBIT!"

THE ROSARY OF MARY: OUR WEAPON OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE
By Fr. James Kosek
TRADITIO Traditional Roman Catholic Internet Site
E-mail List: traditio@traditio.com, Web Page:
adventure could be. To this day, it never ceases to amaze me how these heroic individuals fought so gallantly for their Faith, in the face of overwhelming op position. Their commitment to Almighty God, and their cooperation with God's grace, gave them the ability to overcome the enemy and defeat him.
These soldiers of Christ fought in the army of God against the
enemies of God. They were trained for battle in the basic training camp better known as our Holy Mother Church. Their training manuals and
exercises for spiritual combat against the enemy were the Gospels and teachings of Jesus Christ, the catechism of Holy Mother Church;
attending the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the reception of the
Sacraments and daily prayer.
In order to give these soldiers every possible chance at victory,
they were also given training in the use of spiritual combat weapons known as sacramentals. One of the most important of these sacramentals is the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This treasure of spiritual gifts and blessings was given to St. Dominic by the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is a tremendous weapon against the enemies of God.
The wealth and beauty of this devotion is unveiled as we journey
through the Joyful, Sorrowful, and Glorious Mysteries. From the
Annunciation by St. Gabriel, to the Coronation of the Blessed Virgin Mary as Queen of Heaven and earth, each mystery gives us inspiration and strengthens our faith and love for Almighty God.
Praying the Rosary with love and meditation is like drinking cool
water in the midst of our spiritual desert. Because of this, the very presence of those who are devoted to reciting the Rosary instills fear into the hearts of the enemies of Christ. In fact, the Holy Rosary is feared to such a degree, that the forces of evil have gone out of their way to try to erase this holy devotion from the minds of Roman Catholics all over the world.
The chief agents carrying out this task have been the humanist-
modernists of our time. Not being content with tampering with and
destroying the Mass, they have even taken it upon themselves
to alter the words of the Our Father and the Hail Mary. Since the novus ordo reformation of the Second Vatican Council, modernists all over the world have attacked the devotion of the Most Holy Rosary the only way that they could do it and get away with it. They have ignored this
beautiful devotion in stead of propagating it.
One would think that the modernist clergy would do everything in
their power to please the Mother of God instead of ignoring Her Holy Rosary. How can this be? An answer might be found in a quotation from one of our great popes, Leo XIII. This holy Pope wrote so much on the devotion of the Holy Rosary to the point that history remembers him as
"The Pope Of The Rosary".
Regarding the importance of the Rosary, Pope Leo said, "We have
elsewhere brought it to the attention of the devout Christian that, not least among the advantages of the Rosary, is the ready means it puts into his hands to nurture his faith and to keep him from ignorance of his religion and the danger of error."
Now it becomes clear why the modernists do not want to propagate the devotion of the Holy Rosary. If, as Pope Leo XIII said, "it will keep him from ignorance of his religion and from the danger of error," how can the modernists succeed with a flock of well-informed sheep that refuse to follow them into error? As long as the Holy Rosary is being said, people saying it will receive the grace they need to avoid
error and seek out God's Truth.
We, as Roman Catholics, have an obligation entrusted to us by the
Holy Mother of God. She placed this most powerful weapon into our
hands. She wants us to use it in spiritual combat to defeat the enemy.
We need to keep up the devotion of the Most Holy Rosary and spread this devotion as far as we can.
We should never forget that we are at war! Our whole life is combat, and we can't rest from it for a minute. We need all the spiritual
weapons we can use to defeat the enemies, and the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the gre atest weapons we can use in the fight for salvation and eternal life. Let's make sure to take up this weapon of the Mother of God and shake it in the face of the devil and his minions. Acting thus, in a fearless manner, we can be sure we will gain the victory. Nothing is more powerful than prayer, and the Rosary is our sure prayer of victory after Holy Mass.

Paul and Silvanus (Silas) had served up some very good food indeed (the bread of life) in Thessalonica for three Sabbaths before they were forced to leave by jealous Jews (Acts 17:1-9).
Afraid that the Thessalonians might have gone on to ruin their lives with poisonous junk, they sent Timothy to check in on them and encourage them to keep feeding on the good stuff (1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:10).
Fruity
Paul, Silas and Tim were now writing to provide (further) assurance that they did really have the gospel of God and were on track.
The gospel of Paul/Silas/Timothy/God had objective content. The Thessalonians had neither been persuaded by Paul/Silas' eloquence nor their cutting illustrations nor confident speech. Rather, they had been convinced (1) by proof from scripture (Acts 17:2-3) that Jesus was the Christ who had to suffer and rise from the dead; (2) by proof from the lives of Paul/Silas/Timothy (1 Thessalonians 1:5) that they were really convinced about their message - suffering for the proclamation of the gospel and leading holy, righteous and blamesless lives (Acts, 1 Thessalonians).
The Thessalonians then came to trust in objective realities: they had faith that Jesus was the Son of God, that he died on cross as an atoning sacrifice for sins, that he was raised from dead and that he would come to save them from God's coming wrath (1 Thessalonians 1:10). Knowing the love of God (1 Thessalonians 1:4), they loved others (1 Thessalonians 3:12, 4:9-10). They had a sure and certain hope of the future when God's Son would come from heaven and deliver them from the wrath to come.
Therefore, there was two-fold (or perhaps just one-fold) proof that they were alright by God: (1) that they were intellectually persuaded and had accepted the gospel; and (2) evidence that they had really accepted the gospel was that their lives had been changed and shaped by these doctrines (their faith worked, their love laboured and their hope was steadfast) because they had come into a relationship with God who was now their Father (1 Thessalonians 1:3). So the three letterwriters observe that the gospel had come to them not only in words but, as evidence that they had been chosen by God in power, in the Holy Spirit and in full conviction and so they received it with joy.
Remembering Babel
If this is so, then:
- one cannot claim to be on a "mission trip" or be serving God if one is merely building houses in a developing country or being hospitable to all and patient to the longwinded and, by common consensus, irritating. These were certainly not the things Paul/Silas/Tim/the Thessies were concerned about and persecuted for. If it is the word (1 Thessalonians 1:5,6,8), and the work of the Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 1:5,6) through that word (and the choice of God ultimately), that transforms lives, then any work of God must include the proclaiming of the good news. After all, this was also why Jesus came to earth (Mark 1). And after all, this shows that one's own life has been transformed so to the service of the living and true God who wants all to be saved and not perish.
- while there is a place for bridge-building to, eg. the yet-unnamed post-cyberspace generations, it is the pure gospel that must be preached, not adulterated in the desperate but baseless hope that leaving out sin or Jesus might make "Christianity" much more attractive to unsubscribers. The God who is to be worshipped must be proclaimed in his full justice and glory so that he can be worshipped, and in so doing show that the preacher does actually worship this God. His Spirit will work in those who are his.
- we know we are alright by God and really believe the gospel not because we are in the right (Bible-believing) church or that the church leadership demonstrates their approval of us by appointing us to positions in the church hierarchy or because our friends so assure us, but by the proof in our lives that we have turned from idols to serve the living God, with love for all, while clinging steadily to the hope of Jesus' coming.
- elders, pastors, overseers, leaders and the like who have to account for their flock and who see their sheep wandering off cliffs and taking candy from wolves, need, themselves not to lose sight of the way God has designed lives to be turned back and transformed - by the Spirit, through the word - in both the sheep's lives and their own. Therefore, better music with emotional song leaders, a more persuasive and/or emotive preaching style, church-wide programmes for unity, love and service, a push to missions, more rules on what should or should not be done, accountability groups, topical comments on the latest scandal or political hot potato etc will, of themselves and despite the best of intentions, never bring anyone into a living relationship with God because they point to man rather than God. Better to be preoccupied with God and concentrate on teaching faithfully from the Bible the Christ to be worshipped (or rather, not to obfuscate God's word in proclaiming what God says about the his own glory) and praying, and also (and simultaneously by so doing) demonstrating the conviction of one's faith in one's life, setting the example of living according to the center of one's faith, love and hope. The gospel must first convict the undershepherds before they can so speak and so live in a way that, with the power of the Holy Spirit, generate conviction in the sheep.

Governor Snyder's and the other politicians attack on the Michigan's Film Incentive Program has already cost the state millions of dollars and uncountable number of jobs. They claim the incentive program drains money from the state, while giving very little back. Not only do the independent studies prove this wrong, but so does common sense.
The Incentive Program returns 36-42% of what the Production Company spends within Michigan.. Independent accounting firms proved that the film industry spent over 600 million dollars of new money in the state of Michigan. The incentive program for the same period of time paid out a 100 million. However, the key phase is "new money." Money that would have been spent in another state came to Michigan. Taxes that would have been paid to another state were paid to Michigan. The same could be said for jobs, fees, and positive promotions, which gave the state international exposure not only to film fans, but also to foreign investors who were looking for a new market.
The film and television industry is very fluid. Unlike manufacturing, retail, or most businesses, it doesn't need to build a large infrastructure to in order to do business. It is capable of using existing structures as locations by temporary modifying them to meet their needs or by using larger spaces to create short-term sets. In doing so it pays location fees to cities, businesses, and individuals. It hires locally for services and products. In addition, to the union staff, it hires local people to play extras and to work non-union positions, thereby opening the door to new careers both in front of and behind the cameras.
If however, a production company decides to set down roots by establishing a studio, they bring with them not only the gypsy jobs of cast and crew, but also hundreds of support jobs. Whether it be in the office, transportation, promotions, catering, maintenance, or security, nearly every studio hires its support staff locally.
Studios not only bring in film work, but it opens the door for other projects such as commercials, music videos, video games, and television series. All of which increases the demand for local services and staff, while increasing the individual and business tax base. Whether the income is local, national, or international, studios also pays taxes on their profits to their home state.
When people have good paying jobs the demand on pubic social service lessons. Instead of being a drain on the state, they not only pay taxes, but they also have the money to pay for goods and services, which in turn creates new jobs and tax revenue. This positive financial cycle financially benefits the state.
With this win-win financial scenario why would Snyder and other politicians attack a program that is bringing new money and jobs into the state. It is very simple. New money and good jobs challenges the status quo. Established businesses do not want to compete for good employees by having to pay a living wage and benefits. In addition, Snyder and his old boys club are out to break the back of the unions. Unions fight for workers to have safe working conditions, a living wage and benefits. They take away greedy CEO's power to use, abuse and lose employees at will. Collective bargaining strengthens the work force, which in turn strengthens the state's economy.
If Snyder's changes to the Film Incentive program are allowed to stand, not only will it cost Michigan hundreds of millions of dollars and thousands of jobs, but its reputation as well. The industry was given five years to become self sustaining and profitable. Snyder is trying to change the terms after two. The bait and switch has not gone unnoticed by the rest of the country and the world. No Corporation or individual will invest long term in a state, which is not as good as its word.
It is time to tell Governor Snyder and those who stand with him keep their hands off the Film Incentive Program. In order for Michigan to regain prosperity, it needs new jobs that come from new money. It also needs to reestablish its reputation as a state, which stands behind its word. As citizens, it is time to remind the elected politicians that they work for us, not the Corporate CEOs by calling and demanding that the film incentives be preserved.Theresa Chaze has been described as the woman who plays with dragons, especially the dragons of the mind. She leads her readers to magical realms and others worlds. Her work is based on her philosophy that all peoples can live together in peace as long as we come from respect, not only for ourselves but those who follow different paths or beliefs. Her work has been compared to Marion Zimmer Bradley and Anne McCaffrey with an adult version of Harry Potter mixed in.

Flash LEVINE: So, why do the rich and well-known give out so considerably money on psychics, to bare them what's departure to pour out in the future?
CHRISTOPHER GOLDEN: (LAUGHS) To the same extent they can!
MARK: Average. Satisfactory lots.
CHRIS: I chart what happens is that a lot of people, who have a meal had all of the advantages, continue to in due course learn that it's everything of an all-important. No things what you buy, or what awareness of approval the world has prone you, or what you have a meal lovely or who you know, you're not moving blocked with you. And the worldly tendency is recurrently to hold that this is not lots. So one seeks away from home for finer. Since this reach becomes spiritual I hold one has begun to achieve who you are. But for a lot of people, and doubtless people of venerate finer than others, that spiritual tumble starts with a perfect to my local office, in the form of seeking psychic blessing. In other words, for a lot of first time clients what they are looking for is a quick fix to a feature perturb. But I don't hold that this is why their person is reaching out - say on marginal level of honesty. My aim with every free campaigner I work with is to move external accurate this and to step up the spiritual tumble.
MARK: Since you say "SPIRITUAL TUMBLE" what is it you're describing?
CHRIS: I mean that the feature plays is everything of a casing story. The real argument that all of us prerequisite in due course side is "WHO AM I?" and how you come to rest at this argument is really of very period scare. No things who you are or what your network in life, one has an activity in time, doubtless in the projected, with this "WHO AM I?" argument.
MARK: So thus why ill will with state psychic readings at all? Why not accurate become a spiritual teacher?
CHRIS: We are all, in a way, spiritual teachers otherwise. Each one woman you picture is yourself. The tumble of self admission is everything that in due course cannot be avoided, whether in this life of the moment. So as it turns out I was inherent with poised metaphysical gifts, such as Clairvoyance. It became persuasive to me undeveloped on in life that it was my ability to use these gifts to try to help people. But as my own spiritual tumble deepened, so too did the challenge that came with these gifts.
MARK: Average, but I price I eliminate to ask the obvious argument thus. Why record make an objection your energy on the rich and famous? Why not try to help everybody?
CHRIS: I do try to help someone. Everywhere did you get the picture that I record work with rich people or well-known people?
MARK: Unique presenter, a lonely of seek, whispered your name came up a lot as the "TELEPATHIST TO THE STARS". This lead me to speak with a put your thumb out of your clients who come into view to see you as their wise person. And this is why I acceptable to preach to you. Until that time our conference, in rumor, I may perhaps see that you had a lot of spiritual wisdom. And this intrigued me being I kept back board you were a Beverly Hills psychic and that...
CHRIS: Didn't make sense?
MARK: (LAUGHS) Yes! I don't get it. From the come out in the open it may perhaps view because you're cashing in.
CHRIS: Yes, I've been told that many mature. I was raised in Beverly Hills. My first psychic experiences, as a child, were in Beverly Hills. My first clients, in the postponed 80's were in Beverly Hills. No one cast-off websites back thus and so I got by on referrals, word of mouth. And that word of mouth existed originally in Beverly Hills. I would literally drive to unexpected working class houses and inn rooms and do Tarot Achieve something readings. Since word got out that I was pleasing exact, that lead to giving psychic readings in working class trailers on soundtrack sets and select sets...
MARK: Celebrities?
CHRIS: Yes, but in addition less important customary actors and hair and make-up people and producers and so on. My level is, that is the world I was placed in. A lot of people try to break in to everything, or to "MAKE IT" as a psychic. In my conflict this all came looking for me.
MARK: Average, fair lots. So thus what happens moment. You're lush, you're out giving spiritual blessing to the Beverly Hills group, and...
CHRIS: Remorseful to encroach but no, I was not yet giving spiritual blessing. I was accurate giving psychic readings. I had no real spiritual blessing to bring in until existence second. A campaigner had introduced me to an Indian man who is a pure wise person and obviously the highest Medium woman I have a meal ever met. And seeing that I say the word "WISE PERSON" footing in take care of that the meaning of this word literally is accurate a "DISPELLER OF DIFFUSENESS". This man became my guru and my spiritual counselor. He taught me how to use the gifts I was inherent with. But he in addition taught me how to manage to survive by a predetermine. He whispered that the existing world was one of "MAYA" or all-important. And he dazed upon me to use this provision to see external obvious feature manifestations and to step up my own spiritual tumble.
MARK: Do you consider this man to be holy? Touching on a holy man?
CHRIS: I consider someone to be holy.
MARK: Average, but did he bring in you a spiritual name or ask you to send to him as "YOUR BLESSEDNESS"...
CHRIS:... order me to wear a necklace with his picture poised from it? No. It wasn't because that. It not moving isn't because that. Since you picture your wise person you are assembly yourself. And this is not even celebrity who promotes himself of has a book out or what on earth because that. A wise person is really someone who loves you lots to initiative a unforeseen on you and your spiritual empire. I chart of this man as a father perform and a sweetheart friend. And he taught me to view at each woman as someone who is at hand to become self realized - and never to buy during their casing story. So seeing that someone comes to me, say asking for blessing on how to reconcile with their ex devotee...
MARK: Do you get that a lot?
CHRIS: All the time. But my level is that the argument is never about what it appears to be. Why is celebrity sad to be reunited with their ex? Is it severely being they are person mates and inescapable to make each other satisfied in this life? I don't chart so. The upper crust come during our lives for unexpected reasons, but really someone and everything we skirmish is put on to aid us in our spiritual empire. So if someone requirements to come to me, with their casing story, and cast me in the cloak of "TELEPATHIST READER" asking me to impel their projected, I'll go depressed with that. And if I don't hold I can do it, I'll let them know I can't do it. But if a woman opens themselves up to me that way, thus I hold that is really accurate a notch near a deeper gossip.
MARK: And what is that gossip about?
CHRIS: It's forever the exact. It's roughly the "WHO AM I?" argument. Perpetually.
MARK: Now, seeing that you say "WHO AM I?" do you mean for cause am I held to be an accountant or a domicile wife or a painter? No matter which because that?
CHRIS: No.
MARK: So what do you mean?
CHRIS: Knowledgeably let me ask you reasonable now. Who are you? Are you the brain/body person who thinks it's Flash Levine? Are you your be in possession of history? Are you who your parents command you to be or who outfit says you are? Are you a father, a husband a parent, a journalist?
MARK: Knowledgeably, I'm all of people stuff.
CHRIS: Right. But are record all of people things?
MARK: For instance do you mean by that?
CHRIS: Near is a saying or a argument that one encounters on the spiritual tumble. Most likely you've heard it prior but I'll ask you reasonable now. Send for me what it is that looks out by way of your eyes?
MARK: Me.
CHRIS: And who are you? Aren't you who you've forever been, prior you took on these roles - father, husband, son, journalist? Is put on not an habitual quality? Is that divinity which encompasses all stuff, which is all stuff, that which holds it all together, the customary seat and external... while we know by way of the study of Quantum Physics that everything is part of everything moreover, okay?
MARK: Yes...
CHRIS: So you know that you are not record connected to everything moreover, you are everything moreover. You are someone moreover. The part and the whole are the exact. So is God everyplace else? Or is God reasonable at hand, reasonable now? Is God looking out by way of your eyes?
MARK: Wow.
CHRIS: (LAUGHS) Yeah.
MARK: And people in Beverly Hills preach to you in this way?
CHRIS: Knowledgeably, now that we are in the information age, it's people all higher than the world. I have a meal thousands of clients, on both sides of the sphere, and the huge stiff of them are neither rich nor well-known. Average, but each one of them has come to me with a casing story. If they have a meal come asking for a psychic reading, and that's what they've rewarded me to do, thus that's what I'm departure to bring in them. That is my field. I'm a Telepathist Reader. But for me it doesn't end put on, it begins put on. And for someone who has been able to educate some move fast of illumination depressed the way, depressed the tumble, your field is your casing story. But your have to, if your focus is open and you see others as yourself, is to start the guess of a deeper gossip - to become aware of that someone who comes to you is inherently asking "WHO AM I?" and if one has any scale of self pleasure thus they prerequisite excise this argument in others with an open focus.
MARK: Wow. Sincerely interesting stuff. Do you have a meal a book coming out or what on earth because that?
CHRIS: Perhaps one day. But for now I'm accurate exploit what I'm exploit. And we'll see where that takes me.
MARK: Everywhere can people find you?
CHRIS: On my website, WWW.THE-PSYCHIC.COM
MARK: Chris it's really been an adornment. Thank you so considerably for your time today.
CHRIS: BLESSING FOR HAVING ME. STOP IN ACCOMPLISH.

WORLDVIEW AND PERCEPTIONS, ATTITUDES, BELIEFS, VALUES, AND BEHAVIORS
FAMILY
According to Sue and Sue (2008), Arab Americans honor the family and believe in its importance as a primary obligation. Equally important is the "interdependence among (family) members" (Sue ">IMPLICATIONS IN COUNSELING
Understanding the unique roles of the family is important when working with Arab Americans. These roles may pose challenges for counselors with individualist or feminist values that determine all people should have freedom of expression and personal choice without the approval of one authoritative family member. Counseling Arab Americans may present other unique challenges as well. For example, they may fear that the counselor and the process of counseling may jeopardize their traditional values from exposure to conflicting American morals and beliefs (Mackay, 1992). The counselor must establish a therapeutic environment that will not threaten the family, especially the father. Counseling Arab American women may pose problems
For counselors, it is important to learn about the culture's traditions and worldviews that deeply affect the lives of Arab Americans. Seeking the truth about Muslims is perhaps more important than other religions because of the fear and stereotypes provoked by American propaganda. For example, Islamic doctrine states that women have rights and freedoms separate from their husbands (Haselhurst & Howie, 2011). When counseling any group with unique cultural contexts, acknowledging personal bias is critical to work effectively and in a non-discriminatory manner (Sue & Sue, 2008). Non-Arab Americans are have little accurate information about the Arab culture. Mental health counselors should not hesitate to "collaborate with them to gain an understanding of their lifestyle and beliefs" (Sue & Sue, 2008, p. 414).

"Sidhe Moon of Shabbat Belz Machar Chodesh"
BLACK FIRE ATOP WHITE FIRE
one of my "Walking On Fire" avatars at LiveJournal
I came home yesterday from work to find that I had finally received the new book in the mail that I had ordered a few weeks ago - "The Sidhe, Wisdom From The Celtic Otherworld". I had been waiting for the book on AES S'iDHE (pronounced 'ess shee') to arrive for an unusually extended period of time and had been considering contacting the A Sidhe Moon, also called the Other Moon, is the uncommon phenomenon of two Black Moons occurring in one solar month. The second Black Moon in such a month is called the Sidhe or Fairy Moon. This rare lunar event occurs today, in the year of 2008/5768, on shabbat (weekly Jewish sabbath) of the Torah portion "Re'eh" (meaning 'see'), on the first day of the Witch's month of "Belz "(Days of Fire), and on the penultimate day of the Hebrew month of "Av" (Days of the Young Shoot/bud).
TORAH OF THE SIDHE - BLACK FIRE ATOP WHITE FIRE
The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is aleph (). The penultimate letter of the Hebrew alphabet is shin (). Together, the letters aleph-shin spell the Hebrew word "esh" () meaning 'fire'. The period of time corresponding to the Witch's month of "Belz" is, as written above, called 'Days of Fire'.
White Fire corresponds to the two Hebrew letters of the word "esh", meaning 'fire', symbolizing the mutable Light of Awareness. Black Fire corresponds to the dark Sidhe Moon of the month of Belz, the Days of Fire, and to the immutable note of a Dark Essence Ancient of Days brought forth through the Old Forest Craft of this shamanic Jewitch. Interestingly, the Sidhe teach of the unique note each creature and species contribute to the exquisite song of All Being within the pages of the book I received yesterday afternoon.
The Sidhe Moon is an element from the Teaching of Green Witchcraft. Interwoven with this teaching of Green Witchcraft is a teaching of Torah.
Torah is also a Teaching Tradition (like Green Witchcraft) which describes the Blueprint of Creation and is itself described in the Midrash (Jewish mythology) as "black fire atop white fire" (Sifrei, on Deuteronomy 33:3).
Integrating all these ideas simply and wholly, we can "see" that not only is there Wisdom among the Sidhe, we can "see" that there is Torah among the Sidhe as well. Equally important, just as tzaddikim may have Da'at Torah (integral knowledge of mystical-magical Law-Teaching), so too may witches have Da'at Torah.
And so begins my relationship this shabbat with the Sidhe, with black fire atop white fire.

Palo, or Las Reglas de Congo are a group of closely
A certain number of spirits called Kimpungulu (singular: Mpungu) inhabit the Nkisi (sacred objects, also spelled Inquice, Inquise, and Enkisi). Kimpungulu are well known in name and deed, and are venerated as gods. They are powerful entities, but they are ranked below the High God Zambi or Nzambi.
The main practice of Palo focuses upon the religious receptacle or altar known as a Nganga or Prenda. This is a consecrated vessel filled with sacred earth, sticks (palos), human remains, bones and other items. Each Nganga is dedicated to a specific spiritual Nkisi. This religious vessel is also inhabited by a muerto or spirit of the dead (almost never the direct ancestor of the objects owner), also referred to as "Nfumbe", who acts as a guide for all religious activities which are performed with the Nganga.

I have over a time written several blogs on the validity of Astral Initiation into the Golden Dawn. This will not be a lengthy article or blog. I will simply call on your ability to use logic. Stay with on this and see if you come up with the same conclusion that MacGregor Mathers and Monia Mathers came up with when they first initiated ASTRAL INITIATION in the United States shortly before MacGregor death and Monia Mathers carried it out for many years.
1. Not everyone is near a physical Temple nor can afford the cost of attending a physical Temple. Should these people be excluded from the Light of Initiation into the Sacred Miseries? If so, this would probably eliminate MacGregor Mathers himself for there is no record of him traveling to Germany to receive initiation from the continental adepts! HE WAS EITHER SELF-INITIATED BECAUSE THERE WERE NO CONTINENTAL ADEPTS OF THE ROSE CROSS, OR HE WAS ASTRAL INITIATED. THERE IS NO WAY AROUND THIS LOGIC.
2. The cost of 5 initiations before one can be invited into the Inner Order is outrageous for someone on a budget. The average round trip air fare is about 500.00 the cost of Hotels will bring this up to about 800.00 and then there may be the cost of a rental car, add another 200.00 Plus food. So each trip to a temple will cost about 1000.00 or more. The Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn is the ONLY Order that provides Astral initiation anywhere in the world and then provides a yearly Power Week where members can come and go through physical initiation too. If a person has achieved the first three grades for example, they will experience all the initiations up to Theoricus. Now the cost of physical initiation is drastically reduced. LOGIC. WE DO NOT BELIEVE THE LORD OF THE UNIVERSE OPENED UP INITIATION ONLY FOR THOSE WITH MEANS.
3. If Long Distant Healing works then the same logic applies to long distant initiation. Our early brethren of the Rose and Cross-often did healing and there is nothing written that it was only in person. There astral abilities were often directed at the whole world, or areas of conflict or sickness. IF HEALING CAN BE DONE LONG DISTANT, THEN SO CAN INITIATION, FOR TRUE HEALING IS A TYPE OF INITIATION OF MOVING FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT, FOR DEATH TO LIFE. LOGIC.
4. The Second Order that provides initiation for both physical candidates and astral candidates teaches ceremonial magic. NOW IT WOULD BE RIDICULOUS TO BELIEVE THAT THE SAME ORDER THAT TEACHES MAGIC THAT CAN AFFECT TIME AND SPACE IN ASTONISHING WAYS, TEACHES THAT INITIATION MUST BE DONE WITHIN A SMALL CONFINED SPACE OR A RENTED MASONIC LODGE? This is not very logical.
5. There is a wild-eyed rumor flying around that Astral Initiation is dangerous. We if that is the case, so are long distant healing, or prayer. What the writer of this ill-logical belief does not understand is that ALL INITIATIONS ARE ASTRAL. In the Hall of the Neophyte the Hierophant creates several god forms in the astral plane. They are created and are an active part of the initiation, yet they are invisible. Even the officers in the initiation take on astral forms. The whole thing is astral! This is where the real initiation takes place. There is a greater danger driving to the Temple to attend a physical initiation than sitting in your home with candles and incense and absorbing the influx of Light. ASTRAL INITIATION IS NOT DANGEROUS, BUT MAYBE THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IT IS ARE THE REAL DANGER FOR THEY OBVIOUSLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND INITIATION. LOGIC.
In conclusion, if you are really sincere about learning the Golden Dawn system and working with trained Adepts that will provide you the on-line classes, the personal mentoring and extremely advanced grade materials that are constantly being upgraded, then you might want to consider the Esoteric Order of the Golden Dawn. The Order has members and study groups all over the world, from Australia to Montana, from Olympia Washington to London England. Many of our best and most active adepts began they journey as astral initiates. Logic.
Your Brother in the Great Work of Light,
G.H. Frater P.D.R.

P.S, Since the writing of this Blog I have received notice from another GD group that I am side show Bob, or a late night t.v. salesman. While I have nothing against good marketing, I wonder if this kind of propaganda of name calling and such is where we really want to go as a Golden Dawn community? Just a thought from side show Bob.

December could begin with a bunch of problems. There will be arguments and accidents, with most of the tension peaking on the Full Moon, December 12th. Also, there will be a few control issues, and some of us may feel like our energy is low all the way through December 16th. After that things should really improve, and we will be ready to apply ourselves to the true meanings of the holidays. The month and the year will end with lots of big ideas and adventures.
The first few days of December should be good for business and group projects. It will also be a great time for travel. But after mid week, things will go down hill. Our energy could be strong, but so could our tempers as Mars moves behind the Sun. Some will be very stubborn and closed minded, and others will be clever. There could also be accidents, and some people will be saying the most ridiculous things all the way through Saturday, December 6th as Mercury argues with some of the outer planets.
Things will calm down on Sunday, December 7th, but the heat will rise again by Tuesday, December 9th. We may find ourselves making lots of mistakes and doing sudden stupid things, with the Sun and Uranus fighting, on Tuesday and Wednesday. The flames will get even hotter on Thursday. We may feel like our energy is low or jerky. And, be very, very careful driving, because, Mars, the ruler of cars, will be moving into the Sun's place to argue with Uranus. We will hit the Gemini Full Moon and the peak of our planetary energy on Friday, December 12th, and on that day we are going to be dealing with a grand cross between the Sun, Moon, Saturn, Uranus, and Mars. There will be lots of accidents, fighting, jealousy, and criminal behavior going on this day, so tread lightly.
We may wake up feeling a little "shell shocked" on Saturday after all the turmoil, but we will also be ready to clean up the mess and help out the "disaster" victims as the Sun winks at Neptune. We may find our energy is low or that we are focusing our energy begrudgingly on extra duties all the way through Wednesday, December 17th, but there may also be a bit of change and excitement in the air.
Things will calm down after that, and the weekend of December 19th should be great for holiday parties and get-togethers. People may be a bit more passionate than usual through the second day of Hanukkah, December 23rd, and we may receive some special messages (maybe even from Santa) on Christmas Eve. Our minds will be in tune with family and our inner beings through Sunday, December 28th, but we may also be ready to act on our passions. All of my Muslim friends should find the Islamic New Year (December 29th) will be one hell of a celebration this year.
And for those of us who follow the Christian calendar, with the help of Mercury and Jupiter, New Year's Eve may turn into the adventure of our lives. But be careful, we are going to have a strong Capricornian influence on that day, so "the man" will also be watching. Also, the Moon will be in Pisces that night, so many of us will be overindulging in our holiday "spirits." Practice moderation, or you may spend New Year's Day in jail.
Don't get too comfortable, people. We got lucky and had some great holidays this month, but Mercury's retrograde and the eclipses will be back in January. So check back next month to stay up to date.

This was written for the ongoing Astral Travels section of the Aquarius Channelings Weekly Newsletter and here, we travel to the ascended city of Acclipthys and meet up with the Golden Council by utilizing our visualization and manifestation abilities.This week, we are going to travel to Acclipthys and meet-up with the Golden Council of Acclipthys by utilizing our visualization and manifestation abilities.
For newcomers to our Newsletter who may know little of Acclipthys or the Golden Council, Acclipthys is an ascended city that sits in the clouds of this world, and by utilizing the natural astral travel abilities we all possess and can access, I have been taken to this city and experienced various facets of it.
I have also been introduced to the governing Council of this city, known as the Golden Council of Acclipthys and have brought through a few channeled communications from them in the past. Working with the Golden Council, we have been on many astral excursions to Acclipthys in past issues of this Newsletter, and we have experienced a small facet of the beautiful city.
We have blessed Gaia with the Golden Council in the past and today, I would like to lead you all to a place in Acclipthys that I was only recently introduced to by the Golden Council.As I've discussed before, a part of my initial experiencing of Acclipthys was being led to some type of marble fountain that encompassed the room I was in, and in this fountain was pouring golden liquid.
I was found as well, a marble bowl in my hand and was instructed to dip it into the fountain and partake of the Golden Nectar. Its taste was just heavenly, and I've come to understand that it was a representation of the higher dimensional energy I was feeling within myself while in this ascended city and it was represented to me as something familiar so that I wouldn't be overwhelmed with the experience of absorbing such energy.
I have recently been introduced to another one of these 'fountains' which are again, representations of very pure energy that we all have the full ability to absorb and rather than this one being in a room as I experienced the first fountain, it is outdoors in what can only be described as the heavenly version of a city square.
Before we make our way to this fountain and absorb the wonderful higher dimensional energy it will have to offer in the form of a Golden, heavenly-tasting nectar, we are going to meet up with the Golden Council and to do this we will utilize our natural and practiced visualization abilities.If you would like to, you can go into a light meditation during this exercise.
Doing so is recommended if you wish to enhance the experience but it is not required; only your natural visualization and imagination abilities are. You will find that by introducing yourselves to a certain concept or manifestation, it will naturally appear to you as in impression within your perceived imagination, even if only for a moment.
We are going to utilize our power to manifest based on visualization and meet up with the Golden Council at the "gazebo of Acclipthys" that we have also met at in past issues of this Newsletter.To offer a basic visual manifestation for those who are new to the Newsletter, we will be feeling ourselves in a heavenly and serene type of landscape and the focal-point of this landscape will be a beautiful gazebo that you can visualize and manifest yourselves existing in, looking out at the beautiful landscape all around.
There are sound and color waves floating around the beautiful "air" of this area and notice that what we would normally perceive as invisible air is in fact colorful energy floating all around our perception and around this entire heavenly reality.What we have seen as invisible air has all along, been colored and glittered energy that is very fluid, in that we can work with it and transduce it to become any type of energy or manifestation we wish it to.
We are manifesting the gazebo we are standing/floating in as well as the beautiful and colorful flowers and trees that are everywhere around us in these beautiful serene landscape that our group has recognized as the "outskirts of Acclipthys".Take a few moments if you'd like to feel and hold the focus of this moment, this landscape and this serene feeling of bliss existing all around us.
It feels great, does it not?Notice as we are feeling the beautiful bliss of this moment, that a collective of very tall, Loving, transparent yet colorful beings are beginning to appear and make their way to us. Watch as they come closer and closer to us and with every inch closer they get to us, we perceive of them in a more refined, real and intense way.
We see, feel and energetically respond to the colors we are watching radiate from these beings into a beautiful wave of higher dimensional expression and as they get closer and closer, they uplift our hearts more and more and we find a greater Love within us by the mere presence of these souls.As they reach us and we perceive of them in their full bounty and splendor, notice and feel as they bless us with their uplifting energy.
I personally felt myself float off of the ground a little bit as they gave this blessing to all of us and perhaps you all experienced your own reaction to being given this energy as well. They are so very happy to be within the vicinity of our energies again and happy to see that our troop has expanded, and they are ready to and will happily now lead us to what they are describing as the "Golden Fountain" of Acclipthys.
We are not going to walk/float/fly there with them and rather, they are going to encompass our group in a Lighted energy that will transport us to this fountain instantaneously. Notice and feel as the Light from these beings begins to expand and permeate the spirits of each and every one of us. How does it feel to be all-encompassed in the Light of Angelic, Loving beings?
How does it feel to have this experience, and what visuals are you being given as we are all transported with this Light to our destination?I personally witnessed and felt us all swept-up within this energy and a brilliant white Light shown and remained prevalent as I watched varying shades of this Light danced all around me and I felt myself transported to the amazing fountain that I am now perceiving of.
This Light was likely different for all of us but that was my experience of it, and I now feel each one of us standing around and enjoying the site of a large, marble fountain [ it's interesting that the Golden Council called it a golden fountain] with strange yet beautiful writings on it and golden liquid flowing all throughout it.
I will allow you all to Create, visualize and manifest the uplifting landscape around this fountain, as ascended cities are Creation-based by nature and will accommodate any Lighted visualization and manifestation one wishes to bring forth in such cities.As you feel all of us existing within this wonderful landscape near this fountain, visualize, see and feel a marble bowl in your hands.
Notice the smooth texture of this bowl and how it seems to be perfectly carved-out for use as a dipping-bowl. When you feel you are ready, approach the fountain and dip your bowl into the fountain, and partake of the Golden higher dimensional energy of Acclipthys in the form of nectar. For me, the best [and silliest] description of how this nectar tastes would be the American candy "Skittles" and perhaps you taste this nectar in a specific yet delicious way.
The Golden Council are looking upon us as we go about this experience [their main role of bringing us here has been fulfilled] and as you drink the heavenly nectar out of your marble bowl, you are feeling and absorbing incredibly-pure higher dimensional energies within yourselves that you attained with a few simple visualization and manifestation efforts.
It truly is this easy to access and feel entire ascended cities as well as the energies established upon such cities, and as I leave the rest of this exercise open to you all to manifest your own specific experiences, I express the hope that each manifestation exercise we've practiced during this Newsletter has been helpful for you all in perceiving past the same-ol' third dimensional realms we've all grown used to.
You are as always, encouraged to practice your own visualizations in the days ahead as you will further strengthen your already-inherent ability to visualize and feel yourselves in entire astral and ascended landscapes. Remember the power and ability you hold within, for you can never truly forget it.
This concludes our Astral Travels for this week.

Rarely do I read a book that I wish to recommend to "everyone". Usually, I read I don't think I realized how "jaded I was concerning the Muslim issue until reading this book. I see myself in its pages, right there with the Christians who forgot {and forget} that Muslims really can be converted to Christianity. This is what I mean when I say the book is encouraging": it revealed to me that there are true conversions in the Middle East, and those true conversions give me great hope.
But today, I think I will focus a bit on suffering. It is easy to forget what the Church in the Middle East goes through every day. It isn't just the overt persecution that got to me-there is ongoing, unrelenting social pressure from all sides. They are truly a second class, and they need our prayers.
Today, I will give quotes from the narrative portion of Secret Believers. I edited a couple of them to better explain the context. As you read these quotes, I encourage you to pray for our brothers and sisters living in the heart of the Muslim world.
Under the philosophy of "dhimmitude", Christians were permitted to exist, but they were penalized by extra taxes and second-class status. {p 17}"When it rains, we put bowls and basins on the pews and floor. Now, look at the walls." They walked over to the nearest wall and Butros observed the cracks and peeling paint. "You see, yes?"
Butros nodded. He understood the problem. Any church that wanted to make repairs needed to get permission from government authorities. And permission was almost never granted.
"Do you know how many years we've tried to fix the roof or the bathroom? I can't remember the first time we filed for a permit. And yet look outside." The priest grabbed Butros by the arm and led him out the door of the sanctuary and pointed to the building abutting the church. "Anyone can get permission to build a mosque. They built that four years ago, even though there is another mosque two blocks away. Look at those loudspeakers pointed right at us. Sometimes during our services, they turn on the speakers and try to drown us out with their noise."
Butros sighed. He'd heard similar complaints throughout the country. The condition of church buildings was deplorable. {p 30}The Islamic texts taught that Christians should either pay the "jizya", a special tax levied on Jews and Christians, or embrace Islam. Or they should be killed. {p 35}"At one time, this area was a larged walled compound with a school, a hospital, and homes for the missionaries," Butros explained as he parked behind the church building. "The government nationalized the school and hospital many years ago and expelled the mission organization that ran it. All that remains today is the church, and we are very grateful for its presence in the heart of the capital city." {p 57}"In some Muslim countries there is "no" church, Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia to name two. At least here, you have an established church where you can meet legally."
"Legally maybe, but under their control," Butros answered. "They certainly do not want to give us the freedom to develop, to flourish, to grow."
"So you are under the eye of government authorities?" Andrew asked for clarification.
"Worse than that. We live under constant societal pressure," Yusef answered. "We are always aware that we are being watched, and that someone wants to prevent us from doing ministry." {p 58}He was shocked to learn that the Christians were not allowed by the Muslim majority to draw water from the village well. The only water available to Christians was from a small well in the church compound, but it was not enough. {p 60}"The situation in Suq al Khamis is tense right now. Muslim fundamentalism is on the rise. Young men are calling for a greater commitment to Islam. They are demanding that the government repeal Western-style laws and submit only to Sharia law. The government is concerned about their influence. In some nearby villages there have been attacks against churches and Christians businesses."
Father Alexander spoke and Butros translated: "If we let Muslims [{who claim to have converted to Christianity}] into our church, we endanger the whole congregation. The police can close down the church. The extremists could gather a mob and burn the church down, and also our homes. It has happened. And the police will not stop them." {p 63}"Muslims who become followers of Christ pay a high price...[E]ven the genuine converts, they are considered infidels according to Islamic law. By helping them, the church commits a criminal act in the eyes of Islam. If it's discovered that a pastor baptized a former Muslim, that is considered deserving of death." {p 64}This was the first of what Butros knew would be several long days waiting in government offices so bureaucrats could tell him he needed to fill out another form or provide them with another document. Sometimes the process was legitimate. More often the official wanted "bakshish", a bribe to speed the process along. {pp 74-75}"When my father came home, he and my brother searched my room. They found a Bible and a couple of other Salima started to cry again, and Nadira pulled a couple of tissues from the box and placed them in the girl's hand. Salima went on to tell about the terrible months that followed. Her father beat her. Her brother removed the television, stereo, and Another man held his son on his lap as he told how he had been a Christian for three years. "My wife is still a Muslim and her parents are putting pressure on her to leave me and take the children and go back home." {p 89}"The police surely knew [the crimes we committed], but they left us alone. The Christians have no rights. What can they do?" {p 92}"Before they are baptized, they could go back to Islam. After baptism there is no going back. It's a death sentence. Any Muslim can kill them." {p 94}"What possible charges could they face?"
Butros blew out a puff of air, then stopped and looked up at the sky that was turning red in the east. "They could be accused of insulting a heavenly religion. It's illegal to put down any religion, though it's interesting that the law is only enforced when Islam is the religion attacked. They could be accused of threatening national security. They could be accused of blaspheming the Prophet. They could be accused of desecrating the Quran."
"Obviously they haven't done any of those things."
"It doesn't matter. All it takes is one angry Muslim to make the accusation, to say he saw them tear pages out of a Quran or something like that. Or they could be accused of proselytizing, trying to convert Muslims to Christianity. They could be accused of holding an illegal meeting. Or they could just hold them without charges."
"How long can they hold them without charges?"
"Sixty days. But sometimes they extend the incarceration for another sixty days. And then another. They may or may not ever appear in court. And you can be sure they'll be tortured. That's common practice."
"Are their lives in danger?"
"Could they be killed while in prison? Yes. It has happened." {p 118}It didn't matter that his country had signed the charter of the United Nations that says all citizens enjoy freedom of religion. The laws of Islam superseded all other legal systems. Not only did these officials not respect his freedom to choose what he believed, they treated him as subhuman because of his decision. {p 120}"[T]here have been other parts of the country where Christian girls were kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam. Sometimes they are kept as slaves to the family. Someitmes they are given to a man as a wife and also forced to do slave labor. {p 133}Carefully the priest explained the challenges that the two would face if they married. "In the eyes of the government, you are both Muslims. Neither of you have changed your identity cards, have you?" Both shook their heads. "Of course not. It is almost impossible to do-unless you are a Christian and become a Muslim. The good news is that means you won't have problems getting a marriage license. It's a lot harder if you have different religions on your cards.
"There is another problem." Both looked up at him. "I don't know if this is the right time to bring it up, but you should think about this before you marry. Your children will be considered Muslims. You need to think about how you will handle that."
They were silent as they thought about this; then Ahmed said, "I want our children to grow up as Christians. This is very important."
"In your home, fine, your children will be Christians. But what about when they go to school? If they have Christian names but their ID cards say Muslim, teachers will ask questions. And how will they relate to fellow students?" {pp 152-153}As a minority consisting of only 5 percent of the population, it was expected that Christians would be repressed by the Muslim majority. But lately the threats had become more overt. Imams were preaching more provocative sermons, calling Christians infidels and the West enemies of Islam.
