Please... no WAR ON CHRISTMAS bull**** this year!
O'Reilly: "[Y]ou're a moron ... [i]f you don't believe" the "secular progressive movement" is behind "war" on Christmas Summary: On The Radio Factor, Bill O'Reilly continued to warn of "a concentrated effort by the secular progressive movement to diminish any kind of spirituality in the public marketplace." O'Reilly was referring to the so-called "war" on Christmas, which he feels is part of a broader agenda to enact "secular progressive programs like legalization of narcotics, euthanasia, abortion at will, gay marriage." During the December 19, 2005 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, The Radio Factor, Bill O'Reilly continued to warn of "a concentrated effort by the secular progressive movement to diminish any kind of spirituality in the public marketplace," a movement he has previously claimed is behind the so-called "war" on Christmas. O'Reilly feels this "...
The Supplication For Forgiveness In The Name of God I begin, with all my respect, And all praise belongs to God, for my strength and maturity. I seek the forgiveness of God, our Lord and Creator, For all mankind and for the evils of my[soul’s] turmoil. I seek the forgiveness of God, motivator of the heavenly spheres in the darkness, For our failure to thank Him enough for His bounty. I seek the forgiveness of God, the Saviour of one who seeks His aid, Whenever he suffers misfortune or calamity. I seek the forgiveness of God, Forgiver of the sins of one Who comes to Him broken, humiliated and full of remorse. I seek the forgiveness of God, Concealer of the faults of The morally deficient, and their Savior from adversity. I seek the forgiveness of God for my secret thoughts and overt acts, For the fickleness of my heart and for the smile upon my face. I seek the forgiveness of God for my speech and my behavior, For my evil character, type and nature. I seek the forgiveness of God for my ...
The Shaumbra Symptoms Twelve Signs of Your Awakening Divinity 1. Body aches and pains, especially in the neck, shoulder and back. This is the result of intense changes at your DNA level as the "Christ seed" awakens within. This too shall pass. 2. Feeling of deep inner sadness for no apparent reason. You are releasing your past (this lifetime and others) and this causes the feeling of sadness. This is similar to the experience of moving from a house where you lived in for many, many years into a new house. As much as you want to move into the new house, there is a sadness of leaving behind the memories, energy and experiences of the old house. This too shall pass. 3. Crying for no apparent reason. Similar to #2 above. It's good and healthy to let the tears flow. It helps to release the old energy within. This too shall pass. 4. Sudden change in job or career. A very common symptom. As you change, things around you will change as well. Don't worry...
BUSH LIED?... REALLY? AND HE ADMITTED IT? (gasping for air... crawling towards door) Last week, President Bush unequivocally told a group of reporters that Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and Vice President Cheney would “remain with him until the end of his presidency, extending a job guarantee to two of the most-vilified members of his administration.” Bush said, “Both those men are doing fantastic jobs and I strongly support them.” Today, he announced Rumsfeld is resigning and being replaced by former CIA Director Robert Gates. At the press conference, Bush said that “the only way to answer that question, and get it on to another question, was to give you [the reporters] that answer.” Bush admitted that he had talked to Rumsfeld about resigning and was actively searching for his replacement at the time. Transcript: REPORTER: Last week you told us Secretary Rumsfeld would be staying on. Why is the timing right now, and how much does it have to do with the election results? BUSH: You an...

B"H Broken & Whole -------------- When you find the Infinite, where will you put it? In your broken vessel? It will not stay. In a new whole one? It will not fit. Let the heart be broken in bitterness for its confines. Let it be whole in the joy of a boundless soul. This is the secret that Man holds over the angels: Only the human heart can be broken and whole at once. A Daily Dose of Wisdom from the Rebbe -words and condensation by Tzvi Freeman
B"H On Computers ------------ What is new about the computer? You walk into a room and you see familiar machines: a typewriter, a tape recorder, a television, a telephone, audio speakers, of course a calculator --but none of these are new. Unseen, however, beneath the floors and behind the walls, are cables connecting all these machines to work together as one. There is digital technology that allows them to all speak the same language -thereby transforming them from many ordinary machines into a single powerful computer. Now, lets take your own life. You do business, you study, you eat, you talk --each activity seemingly irrelevant to the next. A mess of fragments. And such, too, is the native psyche of the human being: We have minds that understand one way, hearts that feels another --and what we do has often nothing to do with either of those. Take the technology of the computer and apply it in terms of your everyday life: Find a common meaning at which all these fragments conv...
Kabbalah on Dreams DREAM STATES Life is but a dream. Literally, according to the Zohar! Kabbalah considers our physical world an illusion, a temporary residence, and not true reality. Our world of morning mochaccinos and evening rush hour traffic jams is just one of many dream worlds and dimensions that separate us from the ultimate reality. These other dimensions are accessible in a variety of ways, one of which is through the dream state. THE PURPOSE OF SLEEP When the sun is set and the stars spatter the heavens, part of our soul leaves our body. Even if we remain awake, part of the soul still departs, which is one reason why we begin to feel more tired and drained as night unfolds. During actual sleep, the Zohar explains that 59 of 60 parts of our soul have now left the body, leaving only 1/60 to sustain us physically. When the body is in slumber, the chains of physical existence are suddenly broken. The soul is now free to ascend to a high place in the spiritual atmosphere where it...
OLBERMANN HITS ANOTHER ONE OUT OF THE PARK! OLBERMANN: Yesterday at a fundraiser for an Arizona Congressman, Mr. Bush claimed, quote, "177 of the opposition party said 'You know, we don't think we ought to be listening to the conversations of terrorists." The hell they did. 177 Democrats opposed the President's seizure of another part of the Constitution*. Not even the White House press office could actually name a single Democrat who had ever said the government shouldn't be listening to the conversations of terrorists. President Bush hears… what he wants. Tuesday, at another fundraiser in California, he had said "Democrats take a law enforcement approach to terrorism. That means America will wait until we're attacked again before we respond." Mr. Bush fabricated that, too. And evidently he has begun to fancy himself as a mind-reader. "If you listen closely to some of the leaders of the Democratic Party," the President said at another ...

Falwell Says Faithful Fear Clinton More Than Devil The evangelical leader tells a conference that the New York senator will mobilize his base like no one else if she runs for president. By Peter Wallsten -- Times Staff Writer WASHINGTON — Nothing will motivate conservative evangelical Christians to vote Republican in the 2008 presidential election more than a Democratic nominee named Hillary Rodham Clinton — not even a run by the devil himself. That was the sentiment expressed by the Rev. Jerry Falwell, the longtime evangelical icon and founder of the once-powerful Moral Majority, during private remarks Friday to church pastors and activists as part of the Values Voter Summit hosted this weekend by the country's leading Christian conservatives. A recording of Falwell's comments was obtained by The Times, and his remarks were confirmed by eyewitnesses. "I certainly hope that Hillary is the candidate," Falwell said, according to the recording. "She has $300 million...
I Guess Cleopatra Isn't the Only Queen of Denial... Katherine Harris, that paragon of upright-judgment, is at it again, as many of you likely know. There's been much good written about her statement that the Seperation of Church and State is a lie. Check out Vince Isner of Faithful America for a particularly well-put response. Crossposted from Faithful America First it was Oral Roberts... then Robert Tilton...then Pat Robertson... Now it seems Florida Representative and candidate for Senate Katherine Harris(remember the hanging chad?)is now claiming to speak for God. Now listen up all you Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Unitarians, and other non-Christian U.S. citizens: If you are not electing Christians to represent you, you are simply legislating sin... according to Ms. Harris, that is. I suppose her most bizarre, off-the-wall comment is that GOD chooses our leaders... If this is true, then why did HER party go to such lengths to impeach one of "God's le...
Get REAL with sex education Anti-choice politicians in Congress continue to spend our tax dollars on unproven, ideological "abstinence-only" programs that hurt, rather than help, our young people. Our kids deserve better - and so do taxpayers. That's why pro-choice Americans have to take matters into their own hands. The Responsible Education About Life (REAL) Act would set up the first-ever federal sex education program in schools. Honest, realistic sex education is the best way to reduce the spread of STDs and prevent teen pregnancy. CLICK HERE TO SEND A MESSAGE TO YOUR CONGRESSPERSONS & SENATORS!
