We were responding to a blog post about Hanukkah and a Christian said 'The rest of the world could learn a valuable lesson from celebrating Hanukkah, especially America, in the wake of the recent Black Friday stampedes. Is pummeling someone ahead of you while entering a department store in order to get the best deal the new meaning of Christmas?
Our response
Why should there be any annual celebration of giving presents Pamela? Is that not just feeding the consumeristic materialism that is the complete opposite to the Christ principles? Is that not why the Christ stood against the Jewish priests? Due to their materialism?
What is the greatest gift?
The spiritual gifts from God that everyone was born with. But yet, humanity allow materialism to keep them in separation from God because they are too busy shopping outside of themselves instead of doing what Christ asked them to do.
The Buddhist monks live the Christ principles more than the Christians do.
Back to hanukkah the Hindus also celebrate a festival of lights.
"The UN climate chief launched the annual climate change meeting in Cancun in Mexico, asking negotiators to strike a "compromise" and weave together elements of a solid response to global warming by drawing inspiration from the Mayan goddess of "reason and creativity."
"Next to the goddess of the moon, Ixchel, was also the goddess of reason, creativity and weaving," Christina Figueres, UN climate chief, told the gathering here yesterday.
"May she inspire you - because today, you are gathered in Cancun to weave together the elements of a solid response to climate change."
Figueres said that when the stakes are high and issues are challenging, "compromise is an act of wisdom that can unite different positions in creative ways."
"I am convinced that you can compromise to find your way to a concrete outcome in Cancun," she said.
"A richer tapestry of efforts is needed," Figueres said, as she spelt out the tasks facing the 12-day conference in the Mexican resort city of Cancun. "A tapestry of holes will not work -- and the holes can only be filled in through compromise."
Quango’s moved from NHS to local councils. They didn’t solve the problems of the NHS when will the governments learn? The government said it was shedding the Quango’s, all its doing is moving them from one budget to another.
• Councils are to get responsibility for public health.
• The move will see local public health directors transferred from the NHS into local government.
• A health inclusion unit will be established to oversee the drive to improve the health of people in poorer areas.
• One of the key strands of the strategy will be the idea of "nudging" people into making healthier decisions rather than lecturing them.
• Examples of this include incentive schemes where healthy behaviour is rewarded with vouchers.
• Employers will also be told they have a major role to play in helping staff become healthier.
• Reference will be made to a "responsibility deal" with industry. The idea is to get them on board without the need for regulation.
And Health Secretary Andrew Lansley told the BBC the new system would have a "real impact on improving health".

They can't do in the future what they have not done in the past. More waste of money from the governments, because they simply do not have the right systems, strategy and methodology to meet the objectives. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-11866031
Shops owned by Sir Philip Green, the retail billionaire and ‘efficiency adviser’ to the government, will become the target of the ‘Day of Action’ against Tax Avoidance on Saturday 4th December.
Organisers behind UKuncut told the Guardian today that shops including Topshop, Dorothy Perkins and Miss Selfridge would be targets, alongside the traditional enemy Vodafone.
The Guardian points out:
The businessman banked the biggest pay cheque in corporate history in 2005 when his Arcadia fashion business, which owns Topshop, paid a £1.2bn dividend. The record-breaking payment went to his wife, Tina, who lives in Monaco and is the direct owner of Arcadia. Because of this arrangement no UK income tax was due on the gain.
Richard Murphy, director of Tax Research UK, estimated Green saved £285m by paying the dividend to his wife.
UKuncut say they have set up the ‘Big Society Revenue Service’ (BSRC) to tackle Tax Avoidance in the UK.
Hundreds of activists across the country are expected to mobilise this Saturday for the action.
More details will be announced in the run-up to the big day, on here as well as the UKuncut website and Twitter account.

Yesterday, students from the UCL occupation also staged a protest at Topshop in Oxford Street, London. Here is a video report from that event.
While bathing this evening I was shown a vision of Harry Styles from the X Factor boy band, ONE DIRECTION. There certainly is only one direction, doing it with style. Harry styles on the RIGHT.
When I saw young Harry, he was smiling, the same as the picture above.
Last weekend the boys sang the Joe Cocker song 'You are so beautiful'. However, I still prefer the original Cocker version due to the sheer character of his voice. 16 year old, Harry Styles was the lead singer in a band with his school mates called 'WHITE ESKIMO' and it is snowing in England this night.
One Direction is an important message, as we have said in the past, there is only one way and that is UPRIGHT in integrity. Healing is the path to salvation and love is the way.
Following on from the 'BEATING HANDS' post on the ELIAKIM blog. It is time to speak of TIMOTHY.
For these holy hands have been given authority to bring everyone that is put before me to account. In the bible Timothy speaks of WANTS and wants is the lowest form of human consciousness.
In the NIV scripture Timothy also uses the word 'lying' and that indicates that he was. Timothy travelled with St Paul who was his mentor, so you can come to your own conclusions about that. Timothy is praised by Paul for his knowledge of the scriptures, do you ever remember Christ praising anyone for their knowledge of scriptures? Of course not.
Did he ever praise me for knowledge? No. he praised me for having a different view everyday.
The father of Timothy was Greek and it is clear that he had been indoctrinated from a child into a belief system. Interesting that his relics ended up in Turkey, now an Islamic country. Timothy was oppressive to women that is the total opposite to the Christ teachings and he also oppressed genders different to his own. Does it remind you of Islam and a male dominated society?
Indigenous Sovereignty Week 2010: Indigenous resistance and revival
November 21-27, 2010
Events Organized in:
- Ottawa (October 27 – November 4) - Victoria - Vancouver - Prince George - Edmonton - Winnipeg - Sault Ste. Marie - London - Toronto - Montreal - Esgenoopetitj …and others TBA
Called by Defenders of the Land last year, the first Indigenous Sovereignty Week was a huge success, taking place in 2 dozen cities, towns, and communities across Canada. Building on that success, and a year that has seen continuing land-based struggles to defend Indigenous lands and rights, and growing mobilization for Indigenous rights in cities, Defenders of the Land is calling for a second Indigenous Sovereignty Week to take place in communities across Canada from November 21-27.
Communities and groups should organize their own events according to their capacity; this may mean holding Indigenous Sovereignty Week at a different time. Defenders of the Land may be able to provide materials for presentation, and may be able to make available or facilitate contact with speakers. We have in mind that this work will reach different audiences: Indigenous people living in communities, urban Indigenous people, and non-Indigenous people living in cities and towns. Events may take place on campuses, in community centres, in schools, or other locations.
The purpose of this week is to build local relationships between groups and individuals, disseminate ideas of Indigenism, and generally, contribute to building a cross-Canada movement for Indigenous rights, self-determination, and justice that is led by Indigenous communities but with a broad base of informed support.
There will be a range of events, including speaking events, cultural or arts events, and ceremony where appropriate. Speakers will include activists and leaders of struggles, elders, Indigenous intellectuals, and supporters.
Ireland: Bailout Down The Drain?Questions remain….. The government is under siege, with protesters attempting to storm Parliament. More-ominously, however, is that The Green Party appears to have pulled out from their government coalition, which would mean that any budgetary reforms that are as a condition of the bailout could fail. That, in turn, would trash the entire process. The EU in turn has said that Ireland is willing to consider “softening” their position on the corporate tax rate. This has trouble written all over it, as much of the “Irish Miracle” has been due to the very low corporate tax rate that dragged a number of corporate headquarters there – including some from the United States. Should changes in tax rates promote corporate flight further serious pressure would be placed on government budgets due to the loss of jobs and thus tax revenue. The ultimate problem with bailouts is that everyone seems to think there’s a free lunch. There isn’t. You can rob someone to pay someone else, but you can’t conjure up money from nowhere. But bailouts inherently wind up taxing the people who got robbed in the first place to pay off the people who made the bad bets and lost money. When it comes to bailing out banks it gets even worse due to the leverage involved – the banksters keep the money, including their salary and bonuses, while the people get robbed not only in the form of losses on their so-called “safe” investments but then again when they are taxed to fund the bailout! There’s nothing like getting stuck up at gunpoint and not only losing the hold-up money but then being taxed a second time to pay for the robbery in which you were victimized! This nonsense has to stop and the banks involved must be taken into receivership, reorganized, and the executives involved removed from their positions, tried and jailed.

Its that time of the year when there isn't that much light during the day time, and before you know it, the day is over. My highlights of the weekend was receiving messages from our heavenly Father and his Son this morning.
However, we cannot let this weekend go by, without mentioning how the general public are making a mockery of the X Factor TV show. In my humble view, Wagner should never been in the show to begin with. The general public promised Simon Cowell that they were going to show him who was boss, giving them Wagner gave them the opportunity to do just that.
Does it remind you of the choice the people had to make between Christ and the Criminal, as we know the legend goes that they chose the criminal instead of the blessed one.
Do the general public have the intelligence to understand that their games impact on the lives of the singers that are worthy to stay? It impacts on their futures, the future of their children and loved ones too.
Rebecca Ferguson was right to sing 'WICKED GAME' a few weeks ago, that certainly is what the X Factor as become this year. Its never easy to say goodbye to good people when it is fair. However, it isn't just, that good singers are leaving due to the general public wishing to teach Simon a lesson.
Also to allow a 16 year old to go through the pressure of the X Factor, just goes to show how little Simon knows about children and what impacts adversely on them. Its time he had his own children then he might understand how fragile they are. Cher as all the makings of another Judy Garland, an innocent child exploited by show business.
This was definitely one of the best performances from Rebecca, singing Wicked Game.
May the public change their ways and come to their senses...
Following on from the 'THE SANCTUARY -v- LITTER WORLD' post on the ELIAKIM blog, [1] it is appropriate to share more about the OLD ENGLISH SHEEP DOG here on this blog.
They truly are wonderful, peaceful and harmonic dogs. They adore children and are like a mother to them. In my experience of living with an old english sheepdog, she would never ever do anything to harm a child no matter what the child did to her. She would warn the baby gently, but never do anything to hurt him.
Our female Old English Sheepdog loved to love and to receive love because she gave so much love to us.
Love beyond measure to all of the OLD ENGLISH SHEEPDOGS.....
Kate Tempest (UK) as been hailed the best English poet since William Blake. There is nothing like the night to inspire a poet and the perfection of their creativity. If you take the time to listen to her works, you know that she has been on her own spiritual journey. No surprise then that this first video has 4,444 views and 444 is the number of perfect love in gematria.
THE BECOMING
TEEN'S SPEECH
May God continue to bless her and her work to help the young.
In my book it has to be Barbra Streisland, a woman that touched my heart throughout her amazing musical and movie career. Her voice is unique, she certainly is the voice of the 20th century. I hope that we will hear a lot more from her and that she will inspire people to sing.
I was going to post the last track from the "Yentl' movie 'A Piece of Sky' but we are not allowed too.
An exoplanet orbiting a star that entered our galaxy, the Milky Way, from another galaxy has been detected by a European team of astronomers using the MPG/ESO 2.2-metre telescope at ESO's La Silla Observatory in Chile. The Jupiter-like planet is particularly unusual, as it is orbiting a star nearing the end of its life and could be about to be engulfed by it, giving clues about the fate of our own planetary system in the distant future."
"The most brilliantly audacious defence of Israel since Moses parted the Red Sea" -- The Irish Independent UN Watch Briefing Vol. 264,
Nov. 19, 2010
The remarkable speech below was presented by Gabriel Latner, a 19-year-old Cambridge student, at a recent debate of the prestigious university’s debating society. UN Watch is proud to announce that Mr. Latner will be coming to the United Nations in 2011 as an intern with our organization.
The Cambridge debate centered on the motion that “Israel is a rogue state.” It was proposed by England's Lauren Booth, an extreme opponent of Israel who works for Tehran’s state-run global TV channel, and who recently converted to Islam on a visit to Iran. Her side of the debate was joined by Mark McDonald, founder of the Labor Friends of Palestine, and Mr. Latner.
The Irish Independent has called Mr. Latner's speech “the most brilliantly audacious defence of Israel since Moses parted the Red Sea.” ________________________
Israel is a Rogue State Gabriel Latner
This is a war of ideals, and the other speakers here tonight are rightfully, idealists. I'm not. I'm a realist. I'm here to win. I have a single goal this evening -- to have at least a plurality of you walk out of the “Aye” door.
I face a singular challenge -- most, if not all, of you have already made up your minds. This issue is too polarizing for the vast majority of you not to already have a set opinion. I'd be willing to bet that half of you strongly support the motion, and half of you strongly oppose it.
I want to win, and we're destined for a tie. I'm tempted to do what my fellow speakers are going to do -- simply rehash every bad thing the Israeli government has ever done in an attempt to satisfy those of you who agree with them. And perhaps they'll even guilt one of you rare undecided into voting for the proposition, or more accurately, against Israel.
It would be so easy to twist the meaning and significance of international “laws” to make Israel look like a criminal state. But that's been done to death.
It would be easier still to play to your sympathy, with personalized stories of Palestinian suffering. And they can give very eloquent speeches on those issues.
But the truth is, that treating people badly, whether they're your citizens or an occupied nation, does not make a state “rogue.” If it did, Canada, the U.S., and Australia would all be rogue states based on how they treat their indigenous populations. Britain’s treatment of the Irish would easily qualify them to wear this sobriquet. These arguments, while emotionally satisfying, lack intellectual rigor.
More importantly, I just don't think we can win with those arguments. It won't change the numbers. Half of you will agree with them, half of you won't. So I'm going to try something different, something a little unorthodox.
I'm going to try and convince the die-hard Zionists and Israel supporters here tonight, to vote for the proposition. By the end of my speech I will have presented five pro-Israel arguments that show Israel is, if not a “rogue state,” than at least “roguish.”
Let me be clear. I will not be arguing that Israel is “bad.” I will not be arguing that it doesn’t deserve to exist. I won't be arguing that it behaves worse than every other country. I will only be arguing that Israel is “rogue.”
The word “rogue” has come to have exceptionally damning connotations. But the word itself is value-neutral. The Oxford English Dictionary defines rogue as “aberrant, anomalous; misplaced, occurring (esp. in isolation) at an unexpected place or time,” while a dictionary from a far greater institution gives this definition: “behaving in ways that are not expected or not normal, often in a destructive way.”
These definitions, and others, center on the idea of anomaly -- the unexpected or uncommon. Using this definition, a rogue state is one that acts in an unexpected, uncommon or aberrant manner. A state that behaves exactly like Israel.
The first argument is statistical. The fact that Israel is a Jewish state alone makes it anomalous enough to be dubbed a rogue state: There are 195 countries in the world. Some are Christian, some Muslim, some are secular. Israel is the only country in the world that is Jewish. Or, to speak mathmo for a moment, the chance of any randomly chosen state being Jewish is 0.0051%. In comparison the chance of a UK lotto ticket winning at least £10 is 0.017% -- more than twice as likely. Israel’s Jewishness is a statistical aberration.
The second argument concerns Israel’s humanitarianism, in particular, Israel’s response to a refugee crisis. Not the Palestinian refugee crisis -- for I am sure that the other speakers will cover that -- but the issue of Darfurian refugees. Everyone knows that what happened and is still happening in Darfur is genocide, whether or not the UN and the Arab League will call it such. (I actually hoped that Mr. Massih would be able to speak about -- he's actually somewhat of an expert on the crisis in Darfur, in fact, it's his expertise that has called him away to represent the former dictator of Sudan while he is being investigated by the ICC.)
There has been a mass exodus from Darfur as the oppressed seek safety. They have not had much luck. Many have gone north to Egypt -- where they are treated despicably. The brave make a run through the desert in a bid to make it to Israel. Not only do they face the natural threats of the Sinai, they are also used for target practice by the Egyptian soldiers patrolling the border. Why would they take the risk?
Because in Israel they are treated with compassion -- they are treated as the refugees that they are – and perhaps Israel's cultural memory of genocide is to blame. The Israeli government has even gone so far as to grant several hundred Darfurian refugees citizenship. This alone sets Israel apart from the rest of the world.
But the real point of distinction is this: The IDF sends out soldiers and medics to patrol the Egyptian border. They are sent looking for refugees attempting to cross into Israel. Not to send them back into Egypt, but to save them from dehydration, heat exhaustion, and Egyptian bullets.
Compare that to the U.S.’s reaction to illegal immigration across their border with Mexico. The American government has arrested private individuals for giving water to border crossers who were dying of thirst -- and here the Israeli government is sending out its soldiers to save illegal immigrants. To call that sort of behaviour anomalous is an understatement.
My third argument is that the Israeli government engages in an activity which the rest of the world shuns -- it negotiates with terrorists. Forget the late PLO Chairman Yasser Arafat, a man who died with blood all over his hands -- they're in the process of negotiating with terrorists as we speak. Yasser Abed Rabbo is one of the lead PLO negotiators that has been sent to the peace talks with Israel. Abed Rabbo also used to be a leader of the PFLP -- an organisation of “freedom fighters” that, under Abed Rabbo’s leadership, engaged in such freedom-promoting activities as killing 22 Israeli high school students.
And the Israeli government is sending delegates to sit at a table with this man, and talk about peace. And the world applauds. You would never see the Spanish government in peace talks with the leaders of the ETA -- the British government would never negotiate with Thomas Murphy. And if President Obama were to sit down and talk about peace with Osama Bin Laden, the world would view this as insanity. But Israel can do the exact same thing -- and earn international praise in the process. That is the dictionary definition of rogue -- behaving in a way that is unexpected, or not normal.
Another part of the dictionary definition is behaviour or activity “occurring at an unexpected place or time.” When you compare Israel to its regional neighbours, it becomes clear just how roguish Israel is. And here is the fourth argument: Israel has a better human rights record than any of its neighbours. At no point in history, has there ever been a liberal democratic state in the Middle East -- except for Israel. Of all the countries in the Middle East, Israel is the only one where the LGBT community enjoys even a small measure of equality.
In Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, and Syria, homosexual conduct is punishable by flogging, imprisonment, or both. But homosexuals there get off pretty lightly compared to their counterparts in Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, who are put to death. Israeli homosexuals can adopt, openly serve in the army, enter civil unions, and are protected by exceptionally strongly worded ant-discrimination legislation. Beats a death sentence. In fact, it beats America.
Israel’s protection of its citizens’ civil liberties has earned international recognition. Freedom House is an NGO that releases an annual report on democracy and civil liberties in each of the 195 countries in the world. It ranks each country as “Free,” “Partly Free,” or “Not Free.” In the Middle East, Israel is the only country that has earned designation as a “free” country. Not surprising given the level of freedom afforded to citizens in, say, Lebanon -- a country designated “partly free,” where there are laws against reporters criticizing not only the Lebanese government, but the Syrian regime as well. I’m hoping Ms. Booth will speak about this, given her experience working as a “journalist” for Iran.
Iran is a country given the rating of “not free,” putting it alongside China, Zimbabwe, North Korea, and Myanmar. In Iran, as Ms. Booth I hoped would have said in her speech, there is a special “Press Court” which prosecutes journalists for such heinous offences as criticizing the Ayatollah, reporting on stories damaging the “foundations of the Islamic republic,” using “suspicious (i.e., Western) sources,” or insulting Islam. Iran is the world leader in terms of jailed journalists, with 39 reporters (that we know of) in prison as of 2009. They also kicked out almost every Western journalist during the 2009 election. (I don't know if Ms Booth was affected by that.)
I guess we can’t really expect more from a theocracy. Which is what most countries in the Middle East are. Theocracies and autocracies. But Israel is the sole, the only, the rogue, democracy. Out of every country in the Middle East, only in Israel do anti-government protests and reporting go unquashed and uncensored.
I have one final argument -- the last nail in the opposition's coffin -- and it’s sitting right across the aisle. Mr. Ran Gidor’s presence here is the all evidence any of us should need to confidently call Israel a rogue state. For those of you who have never heard of him, Mr. Gidor is a political counsellor attached to Israel’s embassy in London. He’s the guy the Israeli government sent to represent them at the UN. He knows what he’s doing. And he’s here tonight. And it’s incredible.
Consider, for a moment, what his presence here means. The Israeli government has signed off, to allow one of their senior diplomatic representatives to participate in a debate on their very legitimacy. That’s remarkable.
Do you think for a minute, that any other country would do the same? If the Yale University Debating Society were to have a debate where the motion was “This house believes Britain is a racist, totalitarian state that has done irrevocable harm to the peoples of the world,” that Britain would allow any of its officials to participate? No.
Would China participate in a debate about the status of Taiwan? Never.
And there is no chance in hell that an American government official would ever be permitted to argue in a debate concerning its treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.
But Israel has sent Mr. Ran Gidor to argue tonight against a “journalist”-cum-reality TV star, and myself, a 19-year-old law student who is entirely unqualified to speak on the issue at hand.
Every government in the world should be laughing at Israel right now -- because it forgot Rule No. 1. You never add credence to crackpots by engaging with them. It's the same reason you won't see Stephen Hawking or Richard Dawkins debate David Icke. But Israel is doing precisely that. Once again, behaving in a way that is unexpected, or not normal. Behaving like a rogue state.
That's five arguments that have been directed at the supporters of Israel. But I have a minute or two left. And here's an argument for all of you – Israel wilfully and forcefully disregards international law. In 1981 Israel destroyed Osirak -- Sadam Hussein’s nuclear bomb lab. Every government in the world knew that Hussein was building a bomb. And they did nothing. Except for Israel. Yes, in doing so they broke international law and custom. But they also saved us all from a nuclear Iraq.
That rogue action should earn Israel a place of respect in the eyes of all freedom-loving peoples. But it hasn't. But tonight, while you listen to us prattle on, I want you to remember something: while you're here, Khomeini's Iran is working towards the Bomb. And if you're honest with yourself, you know that Israel is the only country that can, and will, do something about it. Israel will, out of necessity, act in a way that is the not the norm, and you'd better hope that they do it in a destructive manner. Any sane person would rather a rogue Israel than a Nuclear Iran. Except Ms. Booth.

Well this is fantastic news, on the 15th of March there was a big March against bullying. Stars and celebrities have also joined the campaign. Great initiative. It has also been anti-bully week.
Join The Big March 15th March 2010
God bless everyone that continues with this campaign to end bullying.
I was once blessed to be taken to see Donna Summer at a concert in the 70's, she was sensational. What she could do with a mike cannot be found in words to describe it.
Love this video of her singing 'UNCONDITIONAL LOVE'.
I once had a vision of running a school project for children on 'UNCONDITIONAL LOVE' for the young ones on GLOBAL LOVE DAY, and the science/biology of love for the older ones in every school in our nation. I contacted the representative of Dr BRUCE LIPTON to ask him for the cost of purchasing 37.000 DVD's, one for every school to be part of the package for the teachers.
I did not even receive a reply. At that time we had a student that was working in the marketing department of a large corporation and was happy to put our proposal forward. I could not put the proposal forward because I could not put together the accurate costs due to people not responding with quotes.
"North Sea Fisheries madness. Outcry grows at 'ridiculous' waste of fishing catch.

Almost a million dead and dying fish are discarded at sea each year because they're either too small, the wrong species or will take fishing boats over their quotas, making it illegal to land them. [1]
What does that tell you about Gordon Brown, his policies and his supporters thereof!

Many children suffer from bullying in school and sometimes children find it so painful that they never ever speak of it. As we know children can be very cruel to each but those that bully other children have usually observed this in their own lives, it is usually within the home with their parents and or siblings. Hence, why inner child healing in adulthood is so important.
This child Rosie speaks about a service provided in the the UK to mentor the young ones and she says that it has changed her life.
"The 63-year-old organic farmer from the former Sydenham Township has been in jail since Nov. 1, when he was arrested for failing to appear in the Superior Court of Justice.
Bothwell was in court that day to set a date for a jury trial on charges concerning a run-in he had with police on the eastern fringe of Owen Sound in May 2009, but he wouldn't respond when his name was called and he wouldn't walk past the bar -- which separates the public from the jurisdiction of the court -- when the clerk summoned him at the direction of Justice Robert Thompson.
Accordingly, Bothwell had been in custody for seven days until brought back into court Monday morning to face Thompson again. Bothwell remains in custody and is to appear in court again next Tuesday.
Three or four uniformed police controlled access to the courtroom before the case was called. Access was permitted only after all electronic devices were surrendered or otherwise kept outside the courtroom.
Bothwell faces two charges of obstructing police and one count of assault while resisting arrest from an incident after a traffic stop May 14, 2009, in Owen Sound.
He has referred to himself as Geordie of the Family Bothwell, Geordie and more recently as George Hugh.
His arguments, set out in documents handed out by supporters Monday, seem to be that the statement of birth and birth certificate are government-issued identity documents that Bothwell doesn't have to recognize.
"If I did appear as BOTHWELL, then I believe that would be committing the act of impersonation which I am sure you are well aware is a criminal offence," says one document titled "The Evidence."
As you know this is the blog where we put any interesting book reviews or releases. Today, I received an email from author Dovid Krafchow aka the Jewish Bohemian. He did support Obama in a youtube video, although we won't hold that against him. Although some Americans might do, bearing in mind the state of the USA right now due to Obama and the money changers bailing out the corporations at the cost of the poor.
As Abba said 'THEY WILL ALL FALL LIKE A PACK OF CARDS".
I haven't read any of Dovid's books, but he has some interesting views on youtube and on his blog. We don't agree on many things. However, I find his recent proposition interesting and that is why I am sharing it with you. I do feel that Dovid is genuine and he has lived like a SADHU for most of his life.
Anyhow, Dovid as released a new book about 2012 and how it relates to Mayan, Roman and Hebrew calendars. Dovid Krafchow, this is the first of his cabalistic works to be published after 40 years of exploration into the deepest books and ideas of the Cabala key to the Zohar-Book of Secret.
The book description states:
"A positive prognostication for the future is found in the conclusion of 2012 and the Cabala where the Mayan, Roman and Hebrew calendars merge in a convocation of meaningful numbers and letters along with an astronomical display at precise times."
"2012 and the Cabala is a completely new perspective and understanding of the cosmos as seen through the ancient eye of the Cabala in connection with the Mayan calendar. This book is written with the hope and intention of communicating to the masses of people searching for information leading to a true understanding of our own existence."

This child was stopped from flying is flag on veterans day. The video talks of pride and as we know pride is frowned upon in the bible and we all know that pride comes before a fall.
However, there is a bigger issue to raise and that is the indoctrination of children by Americans to support the war machine. This child as clearly been indoctrinated by his family.
As Abba said 'NO MORE WAR IN MY NAME" 'Let the atheists go to war if they must, let the godly stay with me'.
Oh dear David, you will have to do a lot better than that.
“My approach is simple. In Britain we need growth, we need jobs, we need investment, so my foreign policy is just an extension of what I want to do at home. [1]
Well as the bible states you will be judged by your words David.
Needs and wants are the lowest levels of consciousness. Best you heal them David then you can raise your consciousness by moving your energy into the heart of essentials of 'WE GIVE'.
So let's try again shall we, "Our approach is simple. In Britain we give growth, we give jobs, we give investment, our foreign policy is just an extension of what we give and do at home".
Dear God please bring back the days when Spiritual leaders, lead the nations and not academically trained politicians that allow the rich to get richer off the back of the poor.
You may remember the ELEPHANT vision, one of the visions given in the CHET VISIONS in March 2009. Interesting that this ELEPHANT is now turning up on Christian blogs, as you know the ELEPHANT represents SPIRITUAL WISDOM and is the wisest of the animals.
No surprise then that the Elephant appears there in this three year of creative and innovative solutions. Not long now until the next Sophia Wisdom Gateway opening in December.
As we told them the Saints can communicate with animals and the animals can communicate with them.
There is some interesting synchronicity with the FLYING LOTUS...(born Steven Ellison), musician and film maker from California.
