Heilung Genauer Definiert von M.N Hopkins
*Damit eine Heilung wahrhaftig und kraftvoll ist, genügt es nicht, nur den Körper zu behandeln. Man muss der Person auch helfen, eine Veränderung ihrer Emotionen und ihres Denkens auszulösen. Sobald dies geschehen ist, wird sich auch das Verhalten ändern. Denn die Außenwelt ist nichts anderes als ein Spiegelbild dessen, was tief im Körper jedes Menschen liegt. Denn wenn es viel Dunkelheit in den Geweben des Körpers gibt, wird es viel Dunkelheit in den äußeren Erscheinungsformen des Lebens einer Person geben - viele Probleme, Krankheiten, viel emotionale Schmerzen, etc. Als Heiler ... more »
Legalized murder
I note with horror that left-wing/liberal/progressive voices have been celebrating - yes, *celebrating* - the latest abortion legislation in New York state. It's clearly designed to preempt any threat to the Roe v. Wade decision by a newly conservative Supreme Court. However, in doing so, it goes to lengths never before seen from - and certainly never before tolerated by - any legislature in this country. “Today we are taking a giant step forward in the hard-fought battle to ensure a woman’s right to make her own decisions about her own personal health, including the ability to a... more »

No, China's J-16 Isn't a Stealth Fighter
*David Axe* *Security, Asia* State media exaggerates the fighter's radar-evading qualities Chinese air force J-16 fighters are getting a new paint job that can reduce the type's radar signature. The state-run *Global Times* newspaper *wrongly characterized* the newly-painted J-16s as "near stealth." That's inaccurate.

The nebula is a large supernova remnant, an expanding cloud born of the death explosion of a massive star. Light from the original supernova explosion likely reached Earth over 5,000 years ago. * Click image for larger size.* Also known as the Cygnus Loop, the Veil Nebula now spans nearly 3 degrees or about 6 times the diameter of the full Moon.

As children, our parents had dreams for us. They wanted us to do well in school, and to do whatever was necessary to reach our highest potential.

"From the moment when the machine first made its appearance it was clear to all thinking people that the need for human drudgery, and therefore to a great extent for human inequality, had disappeared.

But it was also clear that an all-round increase in wealth threatened the destruction - indeed, in some sense was the destruction - of a hierarchical society. The most obvious and perhaps the most important form of inequality would already ha... more »
