Even so Come

The current palestinian prime minister, Ismail Haniya, said last week he was willing to resign if it would end the crippling Western aid boycott against the administration. A future Palestinian national unity government will not agree to demands that it recognize Israel, the ruling Hamas faction has said. "It was not asked from the two Germanys to recognize each other, while the whole world recognized them. "Why should Palestine, which is not yet a state, recognize Israel?" he said, also citing as examples China and Taiwan.
(I would like to ask what difference it would make if Ismail did resign? Why would the palestinians need western aid? Why don’t the arab nations help them instead of just giving them guns? I ask how can Canada have a Quebec national government? I ask how can palistine “not yet a state” have a government that is recognized by anyone? How do you talk to someone who isn’t? True it is puzzling what passes for diplomacy in the world. Why does the world stand by and let china eradicate Tibet? Main land china is a legal identity as a nation? More to say on this topic later.)

A 1.5kg Alba white truffle, sold to a Hong Kong businessman for a record-breaking 125,000 euros ($160,000; £85,000). (I am going to take up truffle growing ! $10,000 per 100 grams !)

We are all aliens !

In July 2001, a mysterious red rain started falling over a large area of southern India. Dr Louis discovered that there were tiny biological cells present, but because they did not appear to contain DNA, the essential component of all life on Earth, he reasoned they must be alien life forms. It also raises the intriguing possibility that if life first originated on another planet then it must mean all Earth organisms, including humans, evolved from alien life.


The existing Marriage Act in South Africa defines a marriage as a "union between a man and a woman". South Africa's parliament has voted to legalize same-sex weddings The ruling African National Congress ordered all MPs to turn up and vote for the bill, despite the opposition of church and traditional leaders.

"The impression we got is that there is overwhelming opposition to this bill from people throughout South Africa," Cardinal Wilfrid Napier.( What ever happened to democracy, rule by majority? Government of the people for the people by the people ? I always wondered how women’s lib considered finally being able to smoke raised their level of liberty? Liberty to get cancer and etc ? ? Is homo behaviour really liberty? seems that they are responsible for all sorts of animal and even plant diseases that have never before been seen in humans ... )
Archbishop Desmond Tutu insisted with regard to increasing polarization between the West and Islam" One of our major conclusions is that the divide is not religious or cultural but political." "They are political causes: when people are poor, when people are hungry or humiliated. But religion is morally neutral."
(this is a MOST amazing statement by Tutu. “religion is morally neutral”. This is the single MOST astonishing statement ever made by man. WOW”)

“we need to fight and resist all forms of discrimination” Tutu ( what ever is wrong with discrimination? ? ? I use it all the time when I go to the store to buy something. Employers use it all the time to hire the right person for the job. I for one am glad that our universities do use discrimination when they pass out medical doctorates, oh sure I am not always happy with everything that they do but I am glad that not just anyone can decide to be a doctor!)
an Ottoman Palace on one bank of the Bosphorus, with a view on to a vast bridge linking East and West. "If we are to build bridges between civilizations, what better place to begin!" UN Secretary General Kofi Annan remarked in his opening address.
"As long as the Palestinians live under occupation, exposed to daily frustration and humiliation, and as long as Israelis are blown up in buses and in dance halls, so long will passions everywhere be inflamed."
(So all the world’s problems are political? Not monetary or just plain people’s own nature showing through in everything that we ever do? Why ever was Kofi in a palace? I do agree that we need to show leadership some regard But how much do they need? What does Kofi think is the solution? One government for the whole world? Wouldn’t that be nice, the UN becomes the official world government. Maybe then Kofi would apply to be the first Enpokoelmucho. That is a new term, like emperor is the kink of kinks an Enpokoelmucho is the emperor of all emperors.)

(We do need someone with the authority to make all these decisions for us. We can not handle it for ourselves. Even so come Lord Jesus ! ! ! )
