Because of the unique issues confronting runners with treating impetigo many specialists are now recommending what
has been termed active rest. They are made out of rubber traction with
flex grooves, making it worse.

Comment on Holding Onto Life by Lou

Michael:

I appreciate your comment and the faith it represents. However, my experience was not one of despair. Instead, it was one of acknowledging the transitory nature of life. That can be painful, but such pain is different from the absense of hope which leads to despair.

Lou,

I understand your despair and I know many people who share your views. As I see it, such a view results from the blind faith espoused by orthodox religion. When one moves to true faith, or conviction, by grasping the lessons coming to us from credible survival research, he/she doesn’t accept the impermanence you refer to. He/She is able to see beyond the physical shell and believes, with reasonable certainty, that we are eternal beings who will continue to live on with our loved ones — assuming there is proper affinity in this lifetime — in the “real” life. Therein, I believe, is the failure of orthodox religion, which is content to believe in a humdrum heaven and not open itself to modern revelation as to what the “afterlife” is really like.

Aloha from Hawaii!

The general meaning of ethics: rational, optimal (regarded as the best solution of the given options) and appropriate decision brought on the basis of common sense. This does not exclude the possibility of destruction if it is necessary and if it does not take place as the result of intentional malice.-”

We are all one. Loving nature doesn’t mean we don’t feel the essence of the creator. We all are rainbow people, who are here to experience our own learning. Oneness is about love of nature and love of all people.

Comment on Sin: Can We Talk About It? by Tony Cuckson

Lovely post. Having been brought up as an Irish protestant and being constantly assured that I was a sinner and was bound for hell I sought out my own understanding of this word that makes sense to me.

I take sin to mean the experience of separateness that we all feel and take for granted because we totally identify with the body and our time and space existance. This is the centre that we miss and it is in learning to abide within this centre through feeling the connection that we know (not just intellectually) but directly that God who is Love (not loving) is not separate and can never be separate from anyone of us.

Blessings

Tony

Comment on The Mythology of Holy Week for Today by Howard Barry Schatz

In defense of the Jewish position on Easter: According to the New Testament’s Letter to the Hebrews 5:1-5:10, Christ belonged to the Order of Melchizedek and the eternal priesthood. This, of course, suggests that Melchizedek, the man who initiated Abraham as a High Priest, were both “Anointed Ones” (Greek: Christos), as were the patriarchal descendants of Abraham through Joseph. The “secret of the Word” was then lost for the next 3 generations, which explains why Moses was given the meaning and pronunciation of the Lost Word at Mount Sinai. According to Jewish tradition, Moses further illuminated the Word by writing his 5 Books, which Jews call the Torah. He then passed it on to to his brother Aaron as key to the the eternal priesthood. With the destruction of Solomon’s Temple (ca. 586 BC), the last High Priest died protecting the transcendental meaning and “pronunciation” of the Word of God. To this Day Jews will not attempt to utter the Holy Tetragrammaton (i.e., YHVH; Yahweh; Jehovah), but say Adonoi instead (lower case and plural as in “LORD of Lords”). For Jews (which of course included Jesus) the death of the last High Priest meant the death of prophecy — unless the meaning and pronunciation of the Word was somehow recovered by Jesus, as implied by our referenced to him as Jesus the Christ. It is no wonder that the Jewish elders of Sanhedrin doubted this newcomer. But, I don’t — Happy Easter — to all my Christian brethren.
