Making sign of the cross reminder to fight evil with good, Pope states |
Pay heed to the pontiff; he is a wise and holy man.
http://www.catholic.org/international/international_story.php?id=19380
VATICAN CITY (UCAN) - Every time Christians make the sign of the cross, they
remind themselves "not to oppose injustice with injustice, and violence with
violence," Pope Benedict XVI said as he opened Holy Week with Palm Sunday
celebrations.
Speaking to about 100,000 pilgrims from all continents at St. Peter's Square
in the Vatican, the pope insisted that Christians "can only overcome evil
with good, not with another evil."
"The new weapon that Christ puts in our hands is the cross - the sign of
reconciliation, the sign of love that is stronger than death," he told the
many young people who were present. They gathered on April 9 for
celebrations that marked the opening of Holy Week.

And never mind that he's a theocrat who thinks you should be forced to
obey his edicts.

If he'll pay heed to the right of anyone to believe as they choose, I'll
refrain from kicking his nads (assuming he's got any) around his ears. Fair
is fair, after all.

*Pay heed to the pontiff; he is a wise and holy man.
What has he done which can be qualified as "wise" and "holy"?
Besides, if you think he is such a great person, why don't you take him
as a model? Have you ever heard him say anything racist, intolerant?
Why do you keep sending these racist and intolerant postings then? Oh,
I know: because you're an hypocrite...

Even the cross icon was stolen from Egyptian mythology. According to
real history, the Ankh was used as a symbol of life in Egypt as early as
2500 years ago.

Although there is some resemblance between the Ankh and the Cross, the
Romans did not cruxify people on Ankhs. I think Ankle Vic is deluding
himself on this one.

It is standard Jesus Myther nonsense.
There are a limited number of basic geometrical shapes. You might as well
argue that the plus sign, the sign for a wrong answer, the letter "t", and
the axes of a mathematical graph are all dervived from the same Ankh.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

Yet despite the prohibitions of homosexuality as practiced within the
echelons of Roman imperial religious/political life--it didn't stop the Jews
betraying the autonomous, sovereign, common law and constitutional
religious/political rights of the State of Israel by handing Jesus (YHVS)
over to the Romans: "All things are lawful to me, but all things are not
profitable; all things are lawful to me, but I-I will not be under authority
by any; the meats are for the belly, and the belly for the meats.
And God both this and these shall make useless; and the body is not for
whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body; and God both the Lord
did raise, and us will raise up through His power. Have ye not known that
your bodies are members of Christ? having taken, then, the members of the
Christ, shall I make them members of an harlot? let it be not! have ye not
known that he who is joined to the harlot is one body? 'for they shall
be-saith He-the two for one flesh.' And he who is joined to the Lord is one
spirit; flee the whoredom; every sin-whatever a man may commit-is without
the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin."
[1 Corinthians 6:12-18]
We will continue to say no to all attempts at assimilation by those who
feign belief as symbolic theology and philosophy of religion drawn from
Pythagorean onomantick hymeneal mysticism--a denial of the hyponomic
character of the hypostatis (eg: The Great Controversy of the Ages; 12 x 6J
= 70J + 3(3²+1)/2 = 457 BCE + 70 weeks = 33 CE) and the personality of
Jesus (YHVS) Christ (The Desire of Ages).
And your denial of the autonomous, sovereign, common law and legislative
basis to the State of Israel.
Geza Vermes, a professor emeritus of Jewish studies says of this exalting
indulgences as repugnant immorality as the self-infatuation shown over the
present discourse by scholars on the 'Gospel of Judas', that "the precise
sum of 30 pieces of silver appears only in Matthew who, as customary, draws
on the Old Testament, here on two prophecies [Zechariah 11:13] and [Jeremiah
32:7-9] {ie. involving Hanameel: the grace that comes from God; gift of God;
Shallum: perfect; agreeable; Anatoth: answers or songs; afflictions;
Benjamin: son of the right hand} wholly irrelevant to the story of Jesus."
[Copyright and Courtesy 2006 The Australian newspaper 15-16 April 2006, p
23]
In this circumstance the promulgation of myths {eg: a pivot upon 30 pieces
of silver as [#43, #43, #9, #30 - Government without Coercion/ Be Chary of
War, #30, #34, #3, #2, #59] as the daemon Solomon - peaceable; perfect; one
who recompenses associated to 8 - 12 September shown below right} essential
to the continuance of symbolic theology and philosophy of religion are
promulgated as the denial of the hyponomic {ie. under law; subject to law}
character of the hypostatis and the personality of Jesus Christ who was
'paradidomai' handed over/betrayed, the 'sin' here is Pythagorean onomantick
hymeneal mysticism as a regime of religious/political governance--as
blasphemy against the name of God [Romans 2:24] and denial of the Jewish
State's Torah based {ie.
Telos ('achariyth) = Arch (re'shiyth) + c² whereby 22/7 as 3W1D ... [7 x 24
x 13 x 49 = 6J or 365.2425 x 293 years] ... 6,000 as 122J3W1D + 9(9²+1)/2 as
#369 with Septet #41 centric on 13-17 September 2001
This hypothetical notion as hyparktikos {ie. really or substantially} deals
with a dynamic contention of opposites expressed between the Roman Imperial
religious/political conception of hyponomos (under law; subject to law) and
its association to the hyponomic character of the hypostatis (eg: 12 x 6J =
70J + 3(3²+1)/2 = 457 BCE + 70 weeks = 33 CE) and the personality of Jesus
(YHVS) Christ.
And this is represented by the Tetragrammation ordering of the letters as
YHV associated with this Hyponomic Principle A-U-M {#341} as cabal {ie. the
secret schemes of a small group of plotters; an intrigue of forced
assimilation [Acts 4:23-27]} which conveys the Thesis {ie. Yod (#10) = A}
and Synthesis {ie. Vav (#6) = M} being as opposites, representing tension
and equilibrium. Where the Antithesis {ie. He (#5) = U} is then the midpoint
connecting the two. The fourth letter of the Tetragrammation, the He (#5),
is also [as Progression,] a point of [outer] tension."
} autonomous, sovereign, common law (viz. the traditional DAOIST/TORAH
(Pythagorean) A-U-M worldview of the religious/political Mysteries
associated to both the Tetragrammation of Number (Sephirot)) and legislative
right.
