I was talking to a coworker a couple days ago and we somehow got on the subject of the Pope, which precipitated an outburst from the coworker about how come Pope John Paul II didn't do anything about the child-molestation cases regarding Catholic priests here in the U.S.

My answer to him at that moment was that the bishops tried to coverup the incidents, but one would think that some type of news would have reached the Pontiff.

What do U think?

I was looking at a katakana table in Japanese and I thought I'd have a go at spelling my name (Gareth), but there doesn't seem to be a symbol for the 'ga' syllable. So what would I use instead?

As you know the EU have expanded their offices in Israel, and are now talking behind the scences to the Palastines and the Israelies. Nations are holding peace talks like never before and are urgently trying to find a way to find peace in the middle east, expecially between Israel and the Palastines. The peace talks are now being talked about more than ever now. I believe that they will be trying to find peace for awhile, maybe a few years and all of a sudden as things get worse with major wars, maybe between Israel Iran, the US, Russia. Iraq,and the world the antichrist will arise ouit of the blue with a solution to the middle east crisis, Israel and the world under a one world government. And I am here to tell you we may not have to wait more than 10 years for the antichrist, and if that is the case than the rapture is not too far away. Look up folks, you redemption draws nigh. Won't be long now, and we well be going home.

May I ask you the followers of Judeo-christian a prespective. What is you vision of god ? An old man sitting on his throne and rests like a lazy man on the 7th day ? A man who is Jesus who sits on his throne with the book of life on his right hand ?? So this means that god far away distance from us... So the question lies here, if he is damned far away from us, how come he knows what is in our heart ? how come is he all knowing ?? My conception of god is that God manifests in everything. The main reason why god let lucifer let go to do his evil job eventhough god can destroy lucifer easily is that God needs something evil so that it can be balanced with god. Juts like the concept of Ying and Yang. Darkness and Light, he needs it to sustain itself. Even lucifer is evil, the essence of god is in him. This is the fact. that's why at the end of the day on the day of judgement, every good soul or evil soul will return back to the one creator, nothing will exist except for the one entity.

Some things feel destined to be. Like we were lead to the perfect place at the perfect time. Like we are meant to meet or connect with someone, or have a "soul mate," or a predetermined life path. Some call it God's plan for us. But every day we make hundreds of both small and large decisions that affect the outcome and circumstances of our lives. So that implies that our thoughts and actions influence and change our life paths ... we are destined to become something, but if we choose another path it takes us somewhere else. If you believe in only destiny, why try to change, or make your life the way you want it? But, is there not an inevitable path we've been chosen to walk? How do we balance the two seemingly conflicting viewpoints?

Lets look at the main religions in the world today.

Christianity - Based in Jewish Prophesis in Books which promoted ethnic cleansing etc. Prophesied about a Messiah to save them. That Messiah comes and regularly refers to Old Testament laws etc. He himself said I came not to brake the laws but to fulfil them. So the great Christian Leader came to FULFILL the laws of genocide.
After his pasing/flight into heaven the Church brake up into factions Paul on Western Church side James with Eastern Orthodox teachings. And this hatred from 'Christian Leaders' have resulted in bloodshed against fellow Christians and non believers.

Islam - Founded by Muhammed. How accepted Old Testament and New Testament and fought battles against pagans when travelling around Arabia. He said let there be no division amongst beleivers. Yet guess what by second generation just as in Christianity an explosion of hatred for fellow believers brake into Sunni - Shi'a factions which continues to this day....
