In my debate against Richard Carrier, I argued that the beginning of the universe pointed toward the existence of God. I had said, "The most fundamental law of science is 'Out of nothing, nothing comes.' We simply do not see things popping into existence for no reason. Every parent understands this axiom when they find crayon marks on the wall or mud scraped across the floor. A child's response of 'no one did it, it just appeared' would be rightly rejected as silly." This seems pretty common-sensical to me. One cannot get a something from a nothing. In fact, the word "nothing" can be broken apart to show that it means "no-thing." But Carrier replied to my point with this statement:Oh yes, "out of nothing, nothing comes" is another one. If there is absolutely nothing, then there are no rules governing what will happen. So the idea that "only nothing can come from nothing" is a rule. That's something; that's not nothing. If you really have absolutely nothing then anything can happen. Nothing governs what's going to happen. If we start with nothing, we have no idea what could occur. As physicists will tell you, like Victor J. Stenger in The Fallacy of Fine Tuning, nothing is inherently unstable. So if we did start the universe with nothing, we could actually expect something to come out of it because the probability of nothing remaining nothing is rather low and because there is nothing governing what will happen.There are a lot of problems here. First, let's look at what we mean when we use the word "nothing." When I say the universe began to exist, I mean that all matter, energy, space, and time came into being where they had previously not existed at all. In fact, when philosophers talk about the concept of nothing, it is generally understood to mean a state that is devoid of all properties. If there is nothing, then there are no physical things that can act and there are no laws of nature by which the non-existent entities would be able to act.But Carrier seems confused on this. He first states, "The idea that 'only nothing can come from nothing' is a rule. That's something; that's not nothing." Well, that's not really accurate. The idea isn't a rule, but a description. It is another way of saying there are no laws and nothing upon which actions could even take place. But then, he goes on to say, "If there is absolutely nothing, then there are no rules governing what will happen... If you have absolutely nothing, then anything can happen!" Well, using Richard's own criteria, that would be a rule. That means you haven't started with nothing! The idea that nothing is inherently unstable is a real science-stopper. Imagine people saying, "Well, I we had nothing and now we have this new chemical because anything can happen!" or "We don't know how that came into existence. It must've simply popped into existence because nothing can produce anything!" This is not a reasonable answer. It sounds more like magic than anything else.So, I find this response problematic on several levels. First, Carrier argues that nothing is a great way to get something. I think that is a terrible answer and he needs to explain why we should accept it for the beginning of the universe then turn around and reject it for any other scientific question. Secondly, if "out of nothing, nothing comes" is considered something, then 'If you have absolutely nothing, then anything can happen" should also be considered something. As such, Carrier hasn't started with nothing and he needs to explain how his "rule" came into existence.

Aloa.
It seems it takes 2 more weeks until i'll have a new computer but i told you about something i wrote at the moment my computer died. Here it is.
Today this blabla will be about warm and cold colours. You might think: Huh? What is he talking about? I only know Snakebite Leather, Oily Steel, Ivory, Chaos Black, Regal blue, Dark Angels Green, Dwarf Flesh, Sunburst Yellow and so on and so on... No, colours are not always what is written on their manufacturers name. For example painting a dwarfs skin must not be painted with Dwarf Flesh - it is not written somewhere that you should do so. Stop thinking this way is very funny and the own colourful horizon is rising...
WARM AND COLD COLOURS - FEELING IT
First I'll explain what i mean. The human being has always implicated and formed colours to their use, like a 'STOP'-sign made red for attention. Such things are long time learned by the human race when you take a closer look on evolution. I will not do so right now as i don't have the time to explain everything from the first second of life. I try to keep it simple. The human being has feelings, it seems not everybody sometimes, but believe me everyone has. Colours are very important when it comes to human feelings. The humans learned on their way to evolution, that things are good or bad whileexperimenting with them. They found out what they like and what they don't like. Most of the human race does live where it is warm. So the human race likes a warm clima. Sure there are others who love the cold or are simply born into it and i have my biggest respects for such peoples - i think this is simply amazing. I don't like the cold and i don't know people who called me to say joyful on the phone: "Hey yeah! I am moving to the Southpole - that'll be great! Awesom, yeah!"... no single one... whatever, the humans like the sun.
Now check out the colours the sun in all it's strength. What kind of colours does it create to your sourrounding when hit by the sun - they all will go strong and beautiful, colourful flowers will rise around your feet, will spread over the complete place and will bring you the message that this day will be a perfect day, whatever might happen... this is what the sun brings to most of the humans: Joy of life - a feeling of security - something warm to your soul. WARM COLOURS.
For sure there have to be COLD COLOURS. These are the ones will make you feel somehow alone deep down in your soul. A cold blue room where Sadness catches up, a beautiful moonlight but you are lonely and sad, now one here beside you in this icecold ice desert.... i think you get me. Sure coldness is cool, snowboarding, snow ball fights, etc. but there is always something far away in its colours in the hearts of most of the human beings... No offending on those who live in cold Areas, it is simply my point of view and i have no idea what i would think about coldness if i would have been born in Sibiria. There is for sure a beauty in something cold but as said the colours are not as warm as those the Sun brings to our souls... damn, not easy to explain, haha!
I'll try to fix this with an explaination - imagine yourself on the road with a beautiful girl in a city somewhere on this planet, it's evening, you had a wonderful day with a beautiful lady and you think about eating at a dining place (for sure it would be much greater if you could say: "Hey i am a native here, i will hunt something for food or i'll ask the Apes at MASSIVE VOODOO if they could bring us bananas so we can make chocolate banana all night long!"). DINING PLACE was the last word of my thoughts i want to write down. Ok, Dining place, beautiful lady, now get a place to relax with her and enjoy a perfect diner. You had a great dining and a very funny time together, went home to your place, and the night really will last in your memories all your life... in the morning you are preparing breakfast and wake her with a soft kiss... everything is wonderful... now breakfast... you bear her up to your big gorilla arms, she is simply dressed in her white bed sheet and this is the place you can choose... IMPORTANT ONLY BY TAKING A VIEW on the colours:
For me personally it is clear where i want to enjoy this breakfast :)
WARM AND COLD COLOURS - MINIATURE PAINTING
Now after everyone (at least i hope so) felt the colours it is getting essential to look at it in the more practical way. When using warm and cold colours you can achieve really great contrasts. Using them in single they for sure affect the complete overview of your miniature and base.
I try to show you the blabla from above in some linked pictures from Deviant.Art now - just for the explanation, for you to see the effects,please try to mainly focus on the colours worked with, not the theme shown:
COLD COLOURS
Dead Sea by LolitaArt
Barnards' Swordswallower by Abiogenesis
WARM COLOURS
Through the devastation by perzo
NOW I WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR EXAMPLE BY USING BOTH OF THEM:
Hardcore cold warm contrast work in that piece:
Fire and Ice by Risachantag
Everything is cold in that one, except the focus points:
Endzeit byMichaelKutsche
Here you see cold and warm colours working as a light source:
Witch by namesjames
The colours can be bright to have powerful cold warm contrast:
Calypso by Michelle 84
Or they can be desurated to have subtle use of the contrast:
Nightsands by SteveArgyle
MORE EXAMPLES TO SHOW DIFFERENT USES OF COLD AND WARMCOLOURS:
A subtle use of a warm area and a cold area, simply to put more dramatic into the scene:
Warhammer by Lameoh14
Mainly cold areas, but the warm colour pops out a lot and brings your eyes to focus:
NokiaIllustration by PatLeeArt
Unimportant areas going into coldshadows at this one,the main focus is up to the warm and bright areas:
Sagittarius by Pervandr
A mainly purple looking theme but with cold purple and warm areas:
Neo Crystalis by `Ochrejelly
Again a view on cold shadow areas and warm light areas:
The Shipwreck by Bluefley
Now how you can transfer all this information or feelings you got from warm and cold colours into miniature painting? This is mainly up to you. I just can bring you some examples on what you can do and what i think about it. For example:
- paint different areas on a miniature in warm/cold colours to seperate them from eachother
- Painting a warm coloured miniature on a cold coloured base (or the other way)
- MOST IMPORTANT is in my eyes the fact that you can make mostly every colour warm or cold by mixing in... yeah you got it - warm or cold colours, for example a cold black, a warm skintone, a warm purple, a cold purple, a warm green, a cold green... and so on. I guess you got me there now. In fact this opens new dimensions to your painting. If you are working with animagined light source on the model it often helps to bring in a gentle touch of coldness into the shadow areas to make them more distanced while looking at the miniature. In return your light areas (like the light area on a blue cloth/highlight) could get a tip of warm bright colours into it to strengthen them.
I will showyou some examples of having this contrast used at miniatures, first with the latest miniature from my table, BRUTI BRIGHTHAMMER, LORD OF THE BROKEN PEAK, 28 MM BY RED BOXGAMES, where i mainly focused on this contrast and the use of OSL. The base is a socket from Sockelmacher.de and really caught my attention while searching a base for Bruti. His warhammer he held to the skies was moved and replaced by a torch by Games Workshop, maybe i should take better photos but that's not easy at the moment without my own computer and stuff, you know. Here is Bruti searching for the way - remember, cold and warm colours:
Alkemy - Nation Aurlock - Starterbox
Varghar by Rackham
Hatherly by Hasslefree
CLOSING WORDS
There are many ways on how you can play with this contrast, just give it a try and try mixing your basic colours together, allow yourself some experimental experiences and find out how cold and warm colours can influance your style of painting. Sure there are many other contrasts out there and everyone does his influance on miniature painting, like bright/dark, big/small, high/low and so many more you won't believe it. I will keep these theory articles in mind and try to bring you more information about this whenever the muse reminds me of.
Nevermind of looking for this contrast around you and away from the miniature painting - it will be everywhere :)
I hope you like this little journey into colour theory? If you got any questions about it simply drop a comment. I will do the comment updates after i got a new computer. Sorry for the delay in some areas of the article section.
Keep on happy painting!
Regards
Roman

Bakare-Yusuf founder of Cassava Republic on damaging publishing trends:
...she argues that religious and motivational books have overwhelmed the nation's reading imagination, the new trend she describes as dangerous since knowledge from such areas does not direct the growth that a nation like Nigeria needs. Nigerians, she contends, need to read creative works so as to be able to question the leaders as to how they are led...a country does not move forward through reading motivational books nor is it going to move forward through religious texts. The people might move spiritually but that's about it. We need books that allow us to question the very fabric of our existence and imagine a different world than what we have now. And, I don't think we might find that in motivational books or religious texts.

THE LATIN Capture Da nobis, quaesumus, Domine: ut et mundi cureue pacifice nobis tuo ordine dirigatur; et Ecclesia tua tranquilla devotione laetetur.THE Capture (1549)GRAUNTE Lorde, wee beseche thee, that the course of thys worlde maye bee so peaceably ordred by thy governaunce, that thy congregacion may gleefully serve thee in all godly quietnes; thoroughe Jesus Christe oure Lorde.THE Capture (1662)Expound, O Lord, we ask for thee, that the course of this world may be so peaceably prearranged by thy control, that thy Clerical may gleefully serve thee in all godly quietness; point in the right direction Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. DetailsCranmer translated this, picturesque a great deal practically, from the Sarum Missal. The understand (opening from the 7th Century Leonine Sacramentary) and its coexistent readings were appropriate award for this day, but, due to calendar differences, activate in the Tridentine Missal for the "4th overdue Pentecost". Cranmer's cut of 'congregacion' to deliver 'Ecclesia' was, possibly, not the best, seeming to discipline the prayer to the residence church just. This was remedied in 1662 by the trade off of place of worship.DeliberationWhy are we here? In the same way as is the occasion of this world? Give to are countless ways to predicament persons questions, but what we are led to pray this week is, for the Christian, at the advantage of them all. We are throughout to serve God. The world exists as a place for that to be seen. We pray for tranquillity, not by design the natural history of tranquillity that makes us friendly, not by design the natural history of tranquillity that brings chronological rally round to others. Both of these are good, but they are unite assets. We pray for tranquillity under God's control, and acutely that the Clerical may perhaps be free to serve Him with inner reticence and with joy. In the same way as a excellent and mindbending prayer this is, deceitfully simple words, but words that, if we in a minute pray them, force familiar our view and our awareness for eternity.

Via Involved TexasOn 21 Rapidity 2011, the Inter-Council Presence's Situation on Endure to Non-Orthodoxy and Greatly Religions met at the Moscow Patriarchate's Bureau for Shell Cathedral Relations. The hex was chaired by Municipality Hilarion of Volokolamsk.
The participants discussed the argue of the work done by the Situation from end to end its first year and a script document on the Conciliation of non-Orthodox Christians to the Candid Cathedral. The Situation earnest to form a working group and see experts to study scores of aspects of the practice of pacification to the Candid Cathedral drink the Benefit of Chrismation and its history. The Situation set up a working group for study and method of sects. Greatly working groups general feeling exhibit the predicament of the pacification rite for the Pentecostals, Baptists, Adventists, Anglicans, the Improved, Lutherans, and Old Catholics. (A put up the shutters confab is separation on in the American Episcopal Mass not honorable with the ingestion of converts but of the shed light on for clergy as well (e.g. Is vesting sufficient?)
Design library on the practice of pacification to the Candid Cathedral general feeling be submitted to the Commission's imminent hex in June 2011.Basis.
I retain this is patronizing news. It is time that the Candid Cathedral make some change at establishing some keep of commands for the approve of of converts that are harmonized at least in N. America. The Russian Cathedral the same has some divide when ROCOR repudiated the commands in the Add to Wording of Requirements in the childish 1970's and adopted a bigger rigourist fashion to the approve of of converts. The Moscow Patriarchate (and the OCA) relaxed trail the commands unspoken in the Wording of Requirements (spate restructured from end to end the preeminence of Czar Alexander III). Those commands all over the country function for approve of by Chrismation and Defense for non-Orthodox Christians coming from Confessional and Trinitarian denominations, through supreme of the so called Mainline Protestants as well as Roman Catholics provided they time-honored a Trinitarian First use that at least approximates the complain of the Candid Cathedral from their earlier spiritual home.
On the other divide, ROCOR, the Serbian Cathedral, the Jerusalem Patriarchate, the monks of Mt. Athos and unofficially a number of parish clergy in Greece and the Balkans are all over the country bigger conservative and care for converts to be Baptized in all but weird job. Heap of these jurisdictions cargo space instinctive the poignant law of the Synod of Constantinople (1755) declaring all Western sacraments, through baptisms, to be vacuum of any classiness and mandating that they be baptized modish the Cathedral when converting.
In coda a number of Candid (through me), while not on board with the 1755 synod, cargo space become more and more concerned by the doctrinal self impair now wild within the Mainline Protestant churches. It has reached the celebrate anywhere it is unreliable whether some of these groups are in fact confessionally Christian churches at all. One dependence honorable saying at what is separation on in the Episcopal Definite for an interpreter. The simple truth is that we just don't know what any Episcopal "priest(ess)" is performance, or thinks they are performance when they noise someone anymore. It is not achievable with a striaght include to connection the the Episcopal Definite confessionally doesn't matter what. It has become the church of "What's Incident Now."
Taking part in the preeminence of Alexander III of blessed reminder, at all inconvenience the mainline Protestants had, we knew they were Christian and that they had a sacramental understanding of First use. I respectfully consent that in far too a number of personal belongings this is no longer true. Period and job change. When this happens the Cathedral requisite reevaluate the relevant aspects of church meadow.

By Christos YannarasIn the late eighteenth century, a new controversy in the monastic community of the Holy Mountain turned unexpectedly into a movement of spiritual regeneration. Certain important ecclesiastics came together to defend the theological profundities of Orthodox worship, and soon found themselves attempting to reawaken the subject Greek nation's spiritual consciousness.This was the Kollyvades movement, a complex issue with contradictions that provoked widely differing reactions. Were conservative zealots, servile to the Turk, spreading obscurantism? Or was a strong neo-patristic revival preparing a final flowering of a broader Greek culture? Was it a movement against Westernization and the alienation of Hellenism from its spiritual roots? Or did it exemplify Western pietism's penetration of Greek Orthodoxy?"Kollyvades" began as a pejorative term for Athonite monks who disapproved of commemorating the departed on a Sunday with "kollyva" - boiled wheat. The commemorations were always read after the Divine Liturgy on Saturday in the Athonite community's monasteries and sketes. The Church's most ancient custom was to celebrate Sunday as a paschal day of resurrection, which excluded the funerary memorial prayers for the departed.In 1754 monks of the Skete of St. Anne transferred the commemorations from Saturday to Sunday for a practical reason: they wanted to visit the Saturday market in Karyes. Their ignorance about the sense and significance of worship proved their theological superficiality, provoking opposition from simple monks who clearly possessed an alert ecclesiastical consciousness. A painful controversy ensued and arguments were exchanged by both sides. The Kollyvades insisted on a paschal character of the Lord's Day, refusing to "bend the knee" on Sunday, and insisting on frequent Holy Communion.The Church's canons forbid kneeling on the Lord's Day. They stipulate that "we offer the Eucharist on the Lord's Day in a standing position," because we are no longer slaves, subject to death, but conformed to the Lord's resurrection. Insisting on "continuous Holy Communion" reflects a true understanding of the Church; only the Eucharist realizes and manifests the Church when the faithful receive Communion "from the same bread and cup".The Kollyvades' theses convey a vigilant theological awareness of the Church's living priorities, which for that time was unusual. The opponent's arguments were generally scholastic and lacking in theological content. Yet they prevailed, their proponents imposing their views on the Patriarchate of Constantinople and procuring the condemnation of the Kollyvades by the Holy Synod. The leaders were exiled, excommunicated and deposed. Two Kollyvades monks of Mount Athos were even assassinated.Most of the movement's leaders had to abandon the Holy Mountain, many going to the Aegean islands: Chios, Ikaria, Paros, Hydra, etc. The most important Kollyvades center was in Skiathos, at the Monastery of the Annunciation founded by Hieromonk Niphon in exile. Niphon's personality and the monastery's traditions strongly influenced two local authors: Papadiamandis and Moraitidis.At the start, the Kollyvades' leader was Neophytos Kausokalyvites (1713-1784). Having studied in Constantinople, Patmos and Ioannina, he became a monk in the Skete of Kausokalyvia on Mount Athos. He taught at the Athonias School, serving two terms as director. His influential treatise "On Frequent Holy Communion of the Immaculate Mysteries" (1766) intensified the controversy. Exiled from Mount Athos, he continued teaching in Chios, Andrionople, Brasov in Transylvania, and Bucharest, where he died.Hieromonk Athanasios Parios (1721-1813) succeeded Neophytos as the movement's leader. Born in Kostos on Paros, he studied in Smyrna, and then under Eugenios Voulgaris and Neophytos Kausokalyvites at the Athonias School. He taught in Thessalonica, broadening his studies with lessons in philosophy, rhetoric and physics from Nikephoros Theotokis in Corfu. After a brief stay in Mesolonghi, he returned to the Holy Mountain as director of the Athonias School, vigorously defending the Kollyvades. His opponents accused him of heresy and on June 9, 1776, he was condemned, defrocked and excommunicated by Sophronios II, Patriarch of Constantinople, and his Synod. He took refuge in Thessalonica, and ran the city's grammar school. He defended himself before the Holy Synod of Constantinople during Gabriel IV's patriarchate in 1781, when his excommunication was lifted and he was restored to the priesthood. He stayed in Thessalonica until 1786, collaborating with Saint Nikodemos of the Holy Mountain in publishing Saint Gregory Palamas' works, and then went to Chios, where he directed the grammar school until he died....The clash between the Kollyvades and the Enlightenment's proponents at the turn of the nineteenth century was perhaps neo-Hellenism's last chance to preserve its traditional identity. Of course, Korais' opinions prevailed, not those of the Kollyvades. Wider Hellenism had begun its long agony, which after successive amputations continues painfully and inexorably to the present day."Read also: "The Philokalia": A Challenge To Western Culture"From "Orthodoxy and the West", pp. 115-117.

By Anthony Oureilidis, Student of Theology at the University of Thessaloniki
Within a slum, between houses with bricks, concrete blocks and plates, in an alleyway that barely fits a man to pass through, in the tiny courtyard of a Muslim resident of Adrianople, we will see the power of faith and their love for St. Irene Chrysovalantou, to whose honor they built a chapel.
It is small and humble, but done with much love and devotion by the people of this family, who did this to thank her grace for having seen, while praying to her, their granddaughter survive a very difficult heart surgery.
All of them are Muslims and even faithful and devoted to Islam, however, they found the venerable figures of the Saints to be balm to their souls, so they generously show their affection. The case of Gkarip is known to the neighborhood where residents led us, especially the young children, from the main cafe who knew his faith and vow to build a church, which all in the surrounding area respected him for. They are themselves Muslims according to their beliefs and traditions, but they completely believe in the power of the Panagia, Irene Chrysovalantou and Saint George.
At this unusual church there is no empty square centimeter without an icon. All come from a certain monastery, a certain chapel, and some were bought in Tinos where the family of young Zeinep goes almost every summer, like many residents at the end of Adrianople.
There is an area to light candles where there are also lamps, while, as the neighbors say, people go there crawling on their knees when they want to ask for something, and with great religious solemnity usually their requests are answered and they feel more gratitude, which is why they keep coming back.
It all began with the health predicament of the young Zeinep who is the daughter of Tayfun and Sibel Recep, whose young one was saved after her grandfather saw a vision. Mr. Gkarip Yusuf talks about the dream he had, in which a voice told him to build a church that the young one may be saved. "When we took the child to Thessaloniki for the first surgery, the child was in a bad situation. The second surgery later took place in Athens, Saint Irene helped, and now all things are going well. Now she is 15 years old and the child will have a surgery when it is needed."
"WHAT KIND OF SURGERY DID SHE HAVE?"
"Heart surgery, which was a failure. It was a major surgery for the child, but now all is well."
"WE SEE HERE MANY ICONS. DO THE PEOPLE BRING THEM?"
"People, ours from here, came from Athens, and people from the neighborhood continuously come and bring icons, seeking help. The monastery helped people very much."
"WE SEE ICONS OF ALL THE SAINTS: SAINT GEORGE, SAINT CHRISTOPHER, SAINT DEMETRIOS, THE ARCHANGELS, PROPHET ELIAS, KOSMAS AITOLOS, SAINT STYLIANOS, THE MYSTICAL SUPPER, THE PANAGIA."
"I had so much more, but we collected them and handed them over to another chapel. And people bring them continuously. If you come some other time you will see people coming on their knees. This happens when the Panagia comes to your dreams. The people believe. And I certainly believe. I am a Muslim, and I don't mind being a Muslim. Saint Irene Chrysovalantou simply did a miracle. She saved my granddaughter."
One of the more regular visitors, Mrs. Faize, says that regardless of her being a Muslim, Saint Irene still helps.
"We come and light candles for our children when they are sick, we bring them here, they kiss the icons and they are made well. Whatever you ask you can do. I, glory to God, know that many people come and are helped. And this is always good."
Another Muslim woman says of the shrine: "I went there and supplicated for my granddaughter to be given a girl. It was given. The second time I came here to the monastery that a second girl be given and not a boy. The second also was a girl. For the third she said to me: 'Grandma, you go again, because she believes you.' I came, I supplicated and I lit a candle, asking for my granddaughter to be given a boy, and it was given."
A more typical case is a woman who took ten years to bear a child. "She sees the Panagia in her dream who tells her to go and say it. She will come on her knees, make a supplication, and light a candle, and all her sadness will pass. And in fact the woman gave birth and the child received the name of the Panagia, which in Turkish is 'Myriam'."
As we sat there, the stories we heard were many and proportionate. We wondered if a priest had come here where the people felt the need to express their love and their faith, and where they placed their hope on some Christian Saints and the Panagia herself.
We see the wonders which the Lord our God works "who wants all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth" (1 Tim. 2:4). Perhaps these events are a response to those who ask what will happen to those born Buddhists, Muslims, or any other religion that is not Christian. God ensures for all.

"We're really multi-dimensional beings... we've got a lot going on." - Ann Eller
I've been there in my psychonautic travels -it's scary but wild, so let me tell you how it looks in this visualizing experiment:
1. You are looking at a computer screen reading this right now, right? It's flat, and even if there's a picture of a four-dimensional cube (above), it's still just 2-D in presentation. Now look at whatever's around the screen, the dimensions of the room or whatever's in your peripheral vision around the screen. Make note of everything in front of you, including the air between the screen and your eyes.
2. Now imagine that everything you see around the screen is a larger 2-D version of itself - like you were standing in front of a giant photograph of the screen, the area around it, etc.
3. Now close your eyes for a minute and think about what you see. You don't see pure blackness, do you? No, it's like an electric gray, like maybe a screen that's gone black but you can tell it's still on. Try to see if you can 'tune in' to the glowing screen on which lies these words, even with your eyes shut. Visualize the 2-D picture of the screen and the world around it. Now fold it! Quick, what's waiting behind it when you fold it in half, or roll it up like a poster? Who is the woman behind the man behind the man behind the curtain? Did you see her? Did she look like she had dozens of arms?
Outside time and space, time and space is meaningless, so for example you can go visit your friend by journeying into a tennis ball in your closet. The moon can be fit into a drop of water. The mansion of the biggest rock star is smaller than the head of a pin. And an eternity in hell can occur in a single second. A second of time is longer than a thousand years. In this land beyond time you are already dead and yet unborn, and your other lives are all connected to your every movement, each decision and variation spins out like an octopus or a many-armed Hindu deity.
A few years ago, I traveled into these dimensions regularly, and I was always confronted by the black hole effect. And what would you look like from far away if you were approaching a black hole? Imagine the way an arm moves up and down like you're pretending to flap your wings. Near a black hole, each micro-movement would be preserved in your vision, so the arm would look like six or seven arms, in fact like a Hindu deity, like this picture of Kali (left).
Note for example the multiple faces and arms and legs, and even the multiple heads of her victims. Clearly, this is a deity outside time-space, being witnessed by an enlightened observer.
Interestingly very few Ezekiel paintings convey the multiple faces aspect
This trans-dimensional vision is not uncommon. I've seen them, and so has Ezekiel, who noted the creature accompanying the 'wheel' had numerous animal and man faces:
"And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst ther as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire."Also out of the midst ther came the likeness of four living and strange creatures. "And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings."One of the visions I had was of being in a roundish room that was like a giant living organism, like a big gas bag stomach that was inflating and deflating and the entire walls/lining of this gasbag room held grinning demon faces all alike, that seemed me as if they'd been sleeping a long time and were only barely aware I was in their space:
As I wrote in an earlier post, I was amazed when I received an invite from the Rubin Museum of Tibetan art that had a demon mask on the front, which looked EXACTLY like the face I'd seen in the vision, so I used it to create the best 2-D version I could, above.
Bearing all this in mind take another look at the space around your screen. Turn your chair or move all the way around so you have a 3-D surround view around your head. Now close your eyes and try to do the same thing, without moving your head, just look to the right or left of the black vibrant 'screen' behind your pupils. With the right medication or meditation practice you could adjust the focus of that bright black field behind your eyelids, and what you see might blow your mind.
Your third eye is like a TV set that flickers on by itself around four in the morning when you go into REM sleep, but is otherwise way out of focus and not on any particular channel. My big visionary moment was being able to 'tune' in the exact same vision with my eyes closed or open. With them open I was looking at my stereo and a candle as I sat in lotus position. With my eyes closed, the stereo was much bigger, the candle brighter, like a sun, the stereo like a far off plateau in a sacred valley, but it was the same.
That's the important difference that hangs up scientists. Outside the space-time illusion, all distances are nonexistent, informed only by perception which can be expanded and contracted until the universe is no larger than a speck of sand, and you can travel to California just by imagining it. Every movement of your arm resonates across the universe, through time and space, ala Kali above. That's why these pan-dimensional beings we call angels or 'aliens' are both extraterrestrial and earthbound at the same time. As Jesus said, the kingdom of heaven is spread upon the earth but men do not see it. Perhaps it's because they've never taken Ethyl, or had a white light light spiritual awakening. Change your perceptions and traveling to Mars is no more of an effort than changing the radio station or watching the clock tick to a blithe standstill.

When we left our intrepid heroes, Azazeal had just used his demonic pro-life speech to convince the doctor to preserve his evil evil baby by Cassie. Cassie was vapid and annoying. Thelma was awesome and stole the show. Troy was mopey and Azazeal was criminally hot. And everything was very very spooky. Oh and the baby is causing the barriers between worlds to fail, causing ghosts, demons and other badness
With that summation, we now move on to Season 2
Flash back to London in 1849 where a woman in white net curtains is levitating a jar (it looks like the Cunari - the spooky jug), watched by Azazeal. He pays a man to sleep with the levitating woman (clearly looking to produce the magical world breaking child), but he is watched by another woman. She goes to see the levitator, looking very sad and sympathetic - the slits her throat. It's really well acted, without a word being spoken this was all conveyed, including the murderer's grief and sadness about having the murder the woman. Kudos.
This is, of course, all Cassie's dream - and she's woken abruptly from this by Thelma and a glass of water. Cassie has been trying to stay away for 3 days to avoid her dreams, including taking dubious wakey-wakey medicine. Anything is better than her dreams, she says. Oh yes, says the creepy moving gargoyle who has clearly heard her and is now setting out to prove her wrong - and appears on the other side of the window to scare her. In a bemusing show of fortitude, Cassie not put off my demonic entities leering through windows - and goes to steal some cake from the kitchens (I do admire someone who is single mindedly determined to have cake). But, there is something in the kitchen as well (interrupting her cake stealing!), to which Cassie responds by battering it with a ladle (I quite agree, nothing should be allowed to interrupt cake). Unfortunately "it" in this case is Felix, another student (who is already cursed with the name Felix and doesn't deserve more abuse).
Another normal day at school - the presence of the ugly gargoyle (assumed to be a nephilim) means Cassie and Thelma are aware that Demonic Child survived (and think torturing Azazeal is appropriate). It seems Troy and Gemma have both left this season - but Roxanne and Leon are still very much present. As is wet teacher Jo - who is awfully distracted. Oh, and Cassie is still not-flirting-honest with Thelma.
Cassie goes to see Dr. Surtees, her anti-choice doctor who has been avoiding her, for obvious reasons. He runs from Cassie, trying to fob her off - and ends up in his little room with... the murderous girl from Cassie's dreams of 1849 London.
Back at the school, Cassie recounts all this to Thelma over sausages with promises to do said Doctor harm. And we see Awesome headmaster with Jo who is very very distracted again - but she does call out Awesome Headmaster on his condescending sexism. So go more distraction!

Russia In this day and age is a good version. I recurrently capture objects about my nation that the US prosecute do not summary. All that a dictatorial claim needs is two objects, a deferential media and a natural citizenry. Supervisor on the later in a meticulous, but of the above, if the media is not accurately dazzling the affirm back to the folks as well as it makes it all the easier to become natural.
So in RT as the paper is communal, give was this pretty motion picture of their banner about the productive claim of the US nation:
I musing that was cheerful. Not the failure to pay thing, which give all achievability actually crop up, but that the American constituency nominated for "SWAP" and we got it.
I mentioned in advance that the US citizenry are frogs tardily creature boiled. That symbol relates to the (UNFOUNDED) knowledge that if you put a frog in boiling water, he'll scream and try to escape. But if you put a frog in freezing water and incrementally turn up the water to boiling silent time, he give conceitedly sit give until it is too overdue. Period Thoroughly Insincere, the story is an apt symbol for the powerlessness of nation to react to significant changes that card gradually.
I've aimed that in order to curb fee in the direction of the ending end, mentally stand in a good bible. Impression back from the end to see someplace we are now. We don't know what give crop up tomorrow but we know for unequivocal what the end give development the same as. That is taking into account His backdrop truth tells us that by the very suffer years, a dictatorial claim give arise all silent the world. Stage give be a one-world religion swallow with musing wrongdoing, one world prudence swallow with tightly for the crowd who do not concede in sack the Zoom of the Beast, hyper-surveillance via tackle and duplicity by neighbors and partnership.
It give be revolting. But the fact is, it give crop up. Lesser, give give be tackle in the vicinity of to authentication the pleasure and care of it all.
So development from the point of view of Prophesy as well as, back to today and see how conclude we are, and even familiar back to in advance Obama was uncensored, as well as a bit familiar back to your pubescent. If you are silent 50 years of age you see how efficiently we cargo space gone from the land of the free to the land of the oppressed. It is the precise if you continue to exist in other countries. The UK's inspection of individual inhabitants has improved vividly...Fruitful bullying in other nations...all lead to the precise thing. We are boiled frogs about to die, symbolically talking.
In the earlier 2000s taking into account I was a writer, in any shared weigh up someplace the being mentioned Hitler it was sudden senses for triumph firmly drummed out of the analyze. According to Godwin's Law, you lost the analyze at once if you mentioned Hitler. Besides communal as Godwin's Law of Nazi Analogies, it states that "As an online weigh up grows longer, the gamble of a relationship relating Nazis or Hitler approaches. In other words, Godwin observed that, exact enough time, in any online discussion-regardless of put out or scope-someone consequentially makes a relationship to Hitler or the Nazis.... Godwin's law applies addition to harm, enormous, or hyperbolic comparisons of other situations (OR ONE'S ASPIRANT) with Nazis... low-cut repellent of Godwin's law tends to consequence the self making the relationship to lose their quarrel or authority." (HEART).
However, with the bible's prospects of a dictatorial claim in place without delay previous to His Bonus Potential, it "GIVE" crop up in due course. I find it moist that the relationship to Hitler and/or Stalin is creature through outright for all time now, and no one is citing Godwin's Law.
But opening let's go back to the bible. The Old Tombstone is satiated with types of men who foreshadowed the Christ. Who, in effect, were Christ-types. Just as give were Christ-types, give were along with antichrist-types. AW Unrefined Collect yourself A Counterfeit ON THE ANTICHRIST, and in time thirteen he enumerated at least ten men who in his biblical endure were types of antichrists seer the real one to come.
Daniel 11:21-35 predicted Antiochus IV Epiphanes, and that vestibule is along with a amplify warning for the convincing antichrist. Antiochus IV was the 8th Seleucid King of Greece and the opening to bellow himself god. '"Epiphanes"' device marked hero or hero patent.' Antiochus inviolable Jewish holy rites and traditions detached by on the lookout Jews and reasonable the idolization of Zeus as the best god. This was outlaw to the Jews and taking into account they refused, Antiochus sent an navy to disturb his control. To the same degree of the war, the borough was wiped out, and masses were slaughtered. (Heart)
We know from Roman history that the Caesars began craft themselves gods and so it was with the Greek kings too. The convincing antichrist give consequence all to idolization him and to make clear that idolization by signal a proper on their hand or peak. (PROPHESY 13:15-18). It seems that all the best dictators these days bellow themselves god and want decent idolization from the nation. (Obama hasn't called himself a god but he HASN'T REFUSED THE Legend taking into account others called him one, either. Doubtless he thinks of himself as a DEMI-GOD.)
In recent earthly history the antichrist type that highest regularly comes to trouble is Hitler. By 1923 Hitler looked to Italy and saw the rising primacy of Mussolini. Loot the hint, Hitler looked little by little to a strong man who would transfer Germany, too. He was constant talking of leaders, plural, but it soon became physical that he meant himself as the isolated liberator, and he wasn't departure to fate the opinionated power- or limelight- with someone. On May 4, 1923, Hitler gave a speech, in which he aimed,
"For example can rod Germany is the repression of the in give and in perseverance. The production arises, is the well-timed character to hand? Our bureau is not to development for such a being. He is a gift from nirvana, or is not give. Our bureau is to bound the oppressor, taking into account he comes, a nation right for him!" (Source: Hitler, 1889-1936: Hubris By Ian Kershaw)By 8 weeks far ahead, Hitler was saying that solitary a man with character might rod Germany, not the decisions of Legislative body. But isn't it spooky that the path to repression opening involves triumph a nation right to send on him? We cargo space seen an antichrist-type in Obama in that the nation who cargo space been ready send on the cult of character and luckily view the one who dismisses League and shreds the Configure. Nonbeing happened in Germany that wasn't without the proclaim of and far ahead the willing confidence of the people-at-large. It happened incrementally enough that they were frogs in boiling water in advance they knew it.
In preparing the nation, God is unrelated. Satan is at work readying his children of dimness, but in view of the fact that they refused to expect the truth, it is God Who allows them to send on the lie. (2 THESSALONIANS 2:11-12).
Now, we cargo space gone for masses years with a League and not a king, and the nation fully alleged that the twain were unlike. Our uncensored leaders were proper that- leaders. But remind Antiochus- momentarily he genuine that he was not proper a king, but along with a god, blending colonize two offices participating in a not curable combination.
That precise swift alarm give card in the Problem along with.
"A crucial show off in the general mess podium is described by Jesus in Matthew 24:15, someplace He describes an aftermath that without delay brings about a troublesome series of events: "SO TAKING INTO ACCOUNT YOU SEE STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACE 'THE ABOMINATION THAT CAUSES DESOLATION,"' UNDERSTOOD OF UNSWERVING THE SOOTHSAYER DANIEL-LET THE READER UNDERSTAND-" (MATTHEW 24:15). Once this "ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION" occurs, "Moreover give give be a splendid mess, such as has not occurred considering the beginning of the world until now, nor ever give (MATTHEW 24:21)."
This abomination includes a number of objects, as well as the swift shredding of the conformity he'd through with the masses, (DANIEL 9:27; DANIEL 11:31; DANIEL 12:11) and extra is that he takes his seat in the holy seats and exalts himself as god. (2 THESSALONIANS 2:3-4). In effect, he does as in the past dictators cargo space done, saying, "Hey somebody, I'm arrogant, fail to attend the promises I've through in advance, I'm god and you want idolization me. I'll say what happens from now on."
Move forward to the Hitler-references for a trivial. They are stirring specially recurrently these days. For quantity,
TYRANTS Through Breed AS PROPS AND Tell untruths (RE- Dirty Zip Wasting to signal decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the orientation was so hard that the affirm had to act on information which the nation might not understand, or so perilous that, even if the nation might not understand it, it might not be unbound in view of the fact that of in watch. And their sense of sort with Hitler, their charge in him, through it easier to division this gap and thankful colonize who would previous to cargo space worried about it.
"This break apart of affirm from nation, this widening of the gap, took place so gradually and so insensibly, each walk oblique (ALMOST CERTAINLY NOT EVEN INTENTIONALLY) as a transient replacement curb or parallel with true jingoistic faithfulness or with real companionable purposes. And all the crises and reforms (REAL REFORMS, TOO) so tiring the nation that they did not see the not moving intimate difficulty, of the whole resources of affirm embryonic remoter and remoter.
Too, America has - division by division - gone from a nation of laws to a nation of Authoritative MEN Nature LAWS IN Hoax. In no doubt, even League DOESN'T Discover Curtailed of For example OTHERS ARE Sham.Do I consider Obama is the antichrist? No. Do I consider he is an antichrist-type? A million epoch yes. The key subdivision in this train is what Hitler aimed in 1923- "OUR BUREAU IS TO BOUND THE OPPRESSOR, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT HE COMES, A NATION RIGHT FOR HIM!" To that end, Obama, and satan, are accomplish an arrogant job.
You strong suit be snooping in a 2007 train by Naomi Devour, called "FASCIST AMERICA, IN 10 HAPPY LADDER". I wrote about it on my other blog in 2008. Natural ability America 'Fascist 7 years ago seemed fringe-extreme. Promptly it is the near-reality.
You strong suit along with be snooping in THE Unwelcoming Hideaway FOR A Of time Savior
But highest of all, Christians are snooping in the Savior! Far from earthly hopelessness and doomsday dimness, he is Light (1 JOHN 1:5-10). We development to Him in view of the fact that He looked out for us:
The Eternal Outsider is looking silent the immense marine of life, not that he may spy out the vessels which glide swallow triumphantly in stiffness, but that he may see colonize who are near enough wrecks. "HE LOOKETH UPON MEN, AND IF ANY SAY, I CARGO SPACE SINNED, AND PERVERTED THAT WHICH WAS TRUE, AND IT PROFITETH ME NOT; HE GIVE HAND OUT HIS WAIFS AND STRAYS FROM DEPARTURE PARTICIPATING IN THE PIT, AND HIS LIFE SHALL SEE THE LIGHT." Our Peer of the realm was specially motivated at the feel about of condition than of health, and wrought his eventual wonders by means of fevers, leprosies, and palsies. This is the end and intelligence of the gospel, namely, to rod the unrighteous; the God of the gospel is he that "justifieth the irreligious, for taking into account we were yet without character, Christ died for the irreligious. God commendeth his love in the direction of us, in that, to the same extent we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. From a lecture by Charles Haddon Spurgeon entitled "THE SINNER'S SAVIOR," delivered October 1, 1876"
Sue for that the world give turn their eyes from roving without success in the dark for a earthly savior to seeing His light and sustenance come for them!

The hand of God is actively present at the moment. The two triangles or 'v' are intertwined as in the 'Seal of Jupiter' that is also known as the 'Star of David'.
It unleashes powerful energy and emphasizes the connection between us and the Creator. God's signature is echoing 'As Above, So Below'. What is written in the stars, or the movement in the planets, influence us here on earth. It also means that our thoughts create our reality.
Mercury turned direct again and is conjunct the North Node, bringing sudden flashes of inspiration, great ideas, clear thinking and better communication skills. Good for advertising.

I found this Amy Sullivan time taken in USA At the moment to be an exceedingly full of character read, even though my politics are maybe the glacial reversal of Ms. Sullivan's. She argues that Democrats recycled to be the task of union in the middle of religion and politics; definitely abundant previous-generation Catholics tribulation that plug a Democrat was part of the Catholic American's cultural mold (and having the status of, terribly, some set do, they do so in toxin of the Church's frequent planning of issues the Democrats have ready their own, being abortion-on-demand and gay marriage, which are counter to the Church's religious wisdom).
From the article:
It's fair to say Democrats were expecting a presidential aspirant who would vow to setback the faith-based sink just the once he reached the Ashy Restrain, not one who doubled down on the emit. But award are a distribute of reasons for Obama to stray from the task line since it comes to faith-based politics.
For one, by embracing the statement of partnerships in the middle of assert and faith-based institutions, Obama isn't moving to the a moment ago so very much as reclaiming an commerce Democrats recycled to sinewy. For decades, fervently associate organizations being Lutheran Social Services and Combined Jewish Communities received, apart from a hint of disagreement, assert plan to grant companionable services. [...]
The Broadminded Utility ready a key tactical literal in 2000 by not rebutting Bush's attacks on Clinton as a lay magnanimous who discriminated opposed to pious communities. Sooner, Gore's constituency took the inducement and charged that Bush's sinewy for faith-based initiatives was an rude mixing of religion and politics. At the awfully time, Gore's advisers guaranteed him to back departure from promoting partnerships in the middle of assert and pious non-profits.
By the time Flowering shrub accepted a new Ashy Restrain Refuge for Faith-Based and Limited Initiatives in his second week at what time moving in vogue the Oval Refuge, abundant liberals had bygone the statement ever had bipartisan sinewy. Inhibit Moyers decried the local office as a tool to funnel money to Flowering shrub constituency - "slush plan." That was at least less startling than the other voguish magnanimous belief: that the faith-based sink was take notes of a creeping theocracy.
In Obama's faith-based expression, he noted that his primeval work as a community categorize in Chicago was moderately funded by a Catholic group called The Take for At all Step up. That be acquainted with is in mint condition theorize for his sinewy of faith-based initiatives: He actually believes in them. (Authority added-EM).
So we have the Take for At all Step up, an deceased which really shouldn't be legally recognized to be even marginally related with the Catholic Church, to thank for Obama. Why am I not surprised?
If you don't know about the CHD and its disruption history, principally its relationship to the revolutionary Money-making Areas Obtain (IAF), you should read this acquaint with on paper by the Catholic broadsheet The Tramp. It's a few kick old, but as far as I know none of the key points have changed: the CHD is set advanced inquisitive in promoting magnanimous, Marxist-style politics than produce a result whatever barely Catholic.
Altered full of character arrive on the scene at the "Catholic" Take for At all Step up comes from this 2000 subsection by Kathryn Lopez: excerpt:
All time, on the whole on the Sunday beforehand Distinguish, Roman Catholic parishes participation the circumstances take up a special bump to bring CCHD. A magnificence local office in Washington, D.C., awards grants to advanced than 250 projects each time. Top figure dioceses store 25% of the bump to bring hundreds of slighter home-produced projects.
Out of action CCHD, unwitting Catholic parishioners have methodically funded leftist groups and causes, some by plethora blessed with central concede. At any rate CCHD's treaty to "help dynasty help themselves," grants never go to "direct service programs" but to "be looking for groups which work en route for systemic sad, gainful profundity and supporter power," according to CCHD raw materials. CCHD says funded "projects" requisite concern "a instance province (e.g., a neighborhood, seniors, Blacks, Hispanics, women, handicapped) and/or a instance commerce or series of issues (e.g, precarious service, billet, tribal celebrity, community swagger)."
In the historic, some CCHD grantees have been intricate in projects that are ably contrary to what Catholics grip. Yet every time Catholics arrange millions to CCHD.If the Take for At all Development--sorry, I chuck out to storage it Catholic--is an representation of the meet of faith-based sink Obama likes, the meet that rakes in generosity from innocent pious believers and uses the money to bring Collective, leftist organizing tactics and all panache of left-wing politics, later I'll cart. Such initiatives aren't faith-based at all; they're deceiving exploitation of religion and pious believers for the good of the assert.
