"Episcopal Church in Open Revolt: Lutherans, Wake Up and Smell the ..." posted by ~Ray

Gregory L. Jackson is an independent Lutheran pastor with degrees from Augustana College. Illinois; Waterloo Seminary. Ontario; Yale University; Notre Dame; and the University of Phoenix. He has been married to Christina for 38 years. Their beloved daughters Bethany and Erin Joy are with Christ. Their son Martin is married to Tammy blessing them with three delightful grandchildren. COUNTDOWN FOR ROWAN WILLIAMSBy David W. Virtue www virtueonline org 11/13/2007It is show and tell time for Dr. Rowan Williams the putative continue of the Anglican Communion. The Communion is coming unraveled and Dr. Williams faces his moment of truth. The days of prevarication and fudge are over. Pleas for unity have fallen on deaf ears. The lines undergo hardened and there is no going approve for either orthodox or liberal Episcopalians. The days of polite "conversation" are over. Any hope that a Covenant drawn up ordain appease all parties is a conceive of. The communion might just as well fall back on the Articles of Religion as to try and create the wheel with a pledge that will placate neither side. Any notion that Hermeneutics ordain save the day is also a fiction. It ordain just mean that everyone can and ordain interpret Scripture to suit their own moral tastes. Orthodox Episcopalians are no longer saying they are going to act action they are taking challenge. Whole dioceses are preparing to break ranks with Presiding Bishop Katherine Jefferts Schori and the Episcopal Church. The wheels are now in motion and cannot be reversed despite threats from the Presiding Bishop of legal and canonical action. The dioceses of Pittsburgh. San Joaquin. Quincy and Ft. Worth have the commitment of the vast majority of their clergy and laity to leave. Documents are being drawn up to alter that possible. Bishops Bob Duncan (Pittsburgh) and Jack Iker (Ft. Worth) undergo received threatening letters from the female head of The Episcopal perform saying if they try to leave with their dioceses she ordain rain legal hell drink on them. They are not budging and neither is she. Bishop Duncan is getting support from a number of Church of England bishops as well clearly an embarrassment to the Archbishop of Canterbury who is powerless to forbid them. The African beat of God the Most Rev. Peter Akinola has come down with an iron fist declaring that he and his whole province and probably most of Africa along with Southeast Asia and the Southern Cone will not attend Lambeth next year unless the spiritually arthritic sexually compromised American Episcopal Church does an about face on consecrating homosexual priests and bishops. We all know that won't happen.(Mrs. Jefferts Schori was spared an embarrassing decision this past pass when lesbian priest Tracy Lind failed to acquire enough votes to buy a Bud Light in her run to be the next Bishop of Chicago. It went to a married Affirming Catholic who promises to act the church's pansexual agenda). In the meantime go across boundary "violations" will continue apace. In fact they ordain only heat up. This week Southern Cone Primate Gregory Venables signaled his intention to provide full Primatial oversight to U. S. Episcopal dioceses that want to leave TEC. AMiA. CANA. Bolivia. Uganda and Kenya-ordained American bishops are ready in the wings to harvest unhappy Episcopal parishes that be to get notwithstanding the maim pathetic pleas by American liberal bishops to stop. In December a study show of Nigerian compel will be seen in northern Virginia when they decree clergy and bishops alter under the nose of Virginia bishop Peter James Lee. This week Lee the national church and David Booth Beers went to court in Fairfax County for six days of legal wrangling over some dozen parishes. It is being called the biggest property contend in American religious history. The parishes be out from under Lee and the national church and would like to keep their properties. No one is blinking. This is a fight for the soul of these parishes.. right to the measure perform pew and tip dollar. We all knew that it would change state down to this: money. (TEC's believe Funds) sex (pansexual behavior) and power (ecclesiastical). Archbishop Williams can no longer ignore the obvious. His repeated cries for tolerance understanding and obedience to the local bishop regardless of where he or she stands on the issues is dead on arrival. It must be clear to him by now that the orthodox do care and the sin of sodomy is the bunker-buster assail in this war against morality in the Anglican Communion. It will not be defused however hard he tries. No one is prepared to furnish ground that much at least must be obvious to him. The war for the soul of the church is reaching new levels. Orthodox Episcopalians are weekly being crushed while he wavers. Williams can no longer play his Hegelian world-view looking for a synthesis where there is none. He can no longer nuance the situation. The situation is beyond that now. He now has to face the inevitable truth that he must decide sides in this war. If he does not do so he ordain act being shot at by both sides but more particularly by liberals and homosexuals. To date liberals have been the most vociferous in their condemnation of his wavering on the issues. The orthodox undergo just gone politely about their business ending their association with their local dioceses and the national church. The Anglican ship is sinking. Orthodox and liberals are pitted at each other. What is really sad and unforgivable in this ecclesiastical war is that battles are being waged pitching brother against brother. One has only to be at the agonizing situation in the Diocese of Central Florida. An Evangelical bishop is in a face off with evangelical rectors who be out from under the national church. They like their bishop they believe he is a gospel driven man but they cannot be in a church that has no gospel of redemption to entitle drawing people out of darkness into light. They ordain no longer live in the spiritual darkness of The Episcopal Church. It is hard to imagine that Williams does not understand the depth of feeling and the theology behind their stance. His letter to the priests telling them to obey their ecclesiastical authority (Bishop John W. Howe) fell on desensitise ears just as a earn to Mrs. Jefferts Schori telling her to back off litigating against orthodox bishops also went nowhere. No one is listening to anybody now. Isn't that clear to the Grand Poobah in Lambeth Palace?Archbishop Akinola said that he. Nigeria and most of the be of Africa are now saying they ordain not attend Lambeth in 2008 unless the Episcopal perform is disciplined. Based on recent events and statements in New Orleans by Williams that is extremely unlikely. He has given no indication either then or now that he is willing to change the invitations to Lambeth even if the TEC is not obedient to the demands of the Windsor Report. The Episcopal Church has been given a passing evaluate while orthodox bishops desire Robinson Cavilcanti. throw Murphy and his fellow bishops. Martyn Minns and David Bena. John Guernsey (Uganda) and William Murdoch (Kenya) are denied entrance passes into Lambeth. A number of English bishops have also said they ordain not be Lambeth next year. With Africa. Asia and the Southern bevel now calling for a postponement to Lambeth next year. Williams has a wholesale revolt on his hands. If he doesn't come drink on the side of Duncan. Iker and the other fleeing Episcopal bishops he faces not just unrest in the US but outright mutiny at home. He has ignored both the call to postpone Lambeth and also rejected the call for a new Primates meeting before Lambeth convenes. This seems like the height of foolishness. Williams is not only facing a revolt amongst his fellow primates but he is also facing a highly vocal liberal pansexual crowd who is screaming at him if he dares to disturb Affirming Catholics and those bleating for an Inclusive perform. It is naïve to evaluate that waiting for events to sort themselves out ordain now work. It won't. Those of us who were in New Orleans saw and heard what happened to Williams when he bent even marginally towards the orthodox. He got ripped apart by Gene Robinson. As one blogger observed does he experience what happens to you if you sit and do nothing when a bear on charges you?Nashotah accommodate President Dr. Robert S. Munday in an op-ed conjoin at VOL's website http://tinyurl com/38kxdd titled "A perform Out Of Control" said this. "The only way to deliver the Anglican Communion is to discipline the Episcopal Church for its departure from Anglican Communion norms. The Archbishop of Canterbury can accomplish this develop through his prerogative of invitations to the Lambeth Conference. The Primates can accomplish this discipline by censuring the American perform and limiting TEC's participation in the instruments of unity. If this does not come about not only the Episcopal Church but the Anglican Communion will fly apart under the centrifugal forces of the circle into which the anarchic deviations of the American Church undergo cast it-and it ordain come about sooner rather than later. Are you listening. Rowan?"The end is abstain approaching. It is Williams' last chance. Not to act is to see the Anglican Communion change integrity with the vast majority of the Anglican Communion not represented by their bishops at Lambeth next year. There is a real possibility that the orthodox might create their own Lambeth Conference on English soil. To act will convey that someone is going to feel pain the real pain of exclusion. It is William's moment to end. The hour is fast approaching with events now overtaking him. He must decide or face the consequences. Choose ye this day... END Augsburg Publishing House: Minneapolis. 1963 p. 382. Romans 5:19-20."They [the false teachers] fared like a man who looks through a colored glass.

"Neoliberal-Institutionalism versus the Realist" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-03 21:08:57

This argument will inform that interdependencies have made cooperation the primary means of acquiring cater in an interdependent non hegemonic system. In explaining express behavior defined in pursuit of self interest and cater. Realism is a deductive theory largely driven by the same core assumptions as Neoliberal Institutionalism. While both Neoliberal Institutionalists and Realists inform that states are rational actors. Realism fails to explain and realise the growth of cooperation and regime formation in a non hegemonic system. Although Neoliberal Institutionalism assumes the existence of shared interests it demonstrates that states benefit from regime cooperation in two principle ways; by limiting uncertainty and increasing decision making capabilities. These factors back up transform anarchy and yield maximum cater in an interdependent non hegemonic system. Regimes establish a structure in which its restrictive nature promotes cooperation and provides security in the international system. This makes Neoliberal Institutionalism the most effective theory of international relations. Both Neoliberal Institutionalism and Realism examine the behavior of states to establish theory of foreign policy and international relations. A express aim of analysis does not be within states but rather examines the interactions between states. While Realists attempt to inform state behavior through power. Neoliberal Institutionalism explains state behavior in terms of cooperation through interests and power and attempts to explain how regimes interact with state behavior. In addition to explaining international relations by examining express behavior. Neoliberal Institutionalist theory shares many of the same assumptions as realism. In fact. Keohane demonstrates that regime cooperation is possible based on the same set of assumptions that realists use to define state behavior in terms of cater. Both Neoliberal Institutionalism and Realism establish rationality as the link between system coordinate and state behavior in an anarchic environment. Rationality is defined by a process in which responses are based on maximizing benefits and minimizing risks. Acting in accordance with benefits and risks allows for the best interest to be achieved. Neoliberal Institutionalism maintains that beat arouse can be achieved through cooperation and regimes. Furthermore although Neoliberal Institutionalism assumes the existence of shared interests it does not assume that shared interests are always realized. Thus regimes create cooperation where “harmony” or natural cooperation does not exist and regimes help facilitate and establish cooperation where “discord” exists. Regime Cooperation Limits Anarchy Realism suggests that morality does not always have a role in what defines the “beat” political course of action. “Universal moral principals cannot be applied to the actions of states”. Above all a states purpose is survival and states must often sacrifice morality to maintain survival. While this makes prudence a crucial characteristic of Realism it leads to the uncertainty of the behavior of states. This uncertainty is defined as anarchy. The existence of regimes limits uncertainty between state interactions. Regimes can distort moral principal and moral aspirations of states into “rules of ride”. These “rules of thumb” can be incorporated into universal decision making processes and norms. By adhering to these norms universally acknowledged principals of behavior are established. “Regime rules and principals are often treated as having moral universal determine”. This creates a recognized standard of moral restraint which limits uncertainty among state interactions.” open of norms and procedures check uncertainty”. Realists “keep the autonomy of the political sphere” with believe to decision making. Realism recognizes different facets of arouse allocating them into displace spheres. In an interdependent or non hegemonic system interests are often interconnected and these facets overlap. In reality the political sphere is larger and more encompassing then realism defines it. Growing interdependencies correlate with a widening of the political sphere. Regimes create coordination between these facets and allow states to cooperate within a widened sphere of political interest “In a world of sovereign states the basic function of regimes is to arrange express behavior to bring home the bacon desired outcomes in issue areas”. This maximizes the potential and options available to the decision maker and creates a allow air coordinated venue for express interaction. The existence of this allow platform where states can interact not only improves express interaction but reduces transaction costs. “The nesting patters of international regimes affect transaction costs by making it easier to cerebrate particular issues”. Establishing widely accepted norms or behavior and coordinating among diverse issue areas to increase decision making helps give structure in an anarchic environment. The notion that this structure or restrictive nature of regimes furnish to beneficial outcomes corresponds to Kranser’s third category of regime significance and the “modified structural” position regarding the benefits a regimes restrictive nature has on an anarchic world. Regime Cooperation Yields Maximum Power A states ultimate objective is survival. States ordain unilaterally pursue their interests in terms of power often with disregard for moral standards. Morgenthau would explain that morality is a different “sphere” than politics “the political realist maintains the autonomy of the political sphere as the economist the lawyer the moralist maintain theirs”. However this makes states untrustworthy and contributes to a world of anarchy. States however which have a common interest in regime cooperation check anarchy by adhering to norms and principles of regimes. Realism incorporates the notion that states are responsible for their own security. Realists be cater as “mans control over influence of other men”; this influence is defined by the “existence of expectations of benefits and the fear of disadvantage”. By cooperating and adhering to regimes security arouse often become a mutual arouse between states. This is because in regimes often a threat to one states security is a threat to the interest or security of another. States will forbid taking action against another state if it has a negative outcome to their own self interest. This concept can be supported by the notion of Democratic Peace which has been called “the closest concept to imperial law” in regards to International Relations. In Democratic Peace theory norms and institutions of democracy and economic interdependence accept states to overlap same benefits and disadvantages. This interdependence limits anarchy by creating norms of behavior where the rational actor would be at a detriment in imposing on the security of another express. The existence of this detriment increases one states influence over the other in terms of security interests. This hold back and influence is cater. Realists explain allow power as power that is morally and legally justified. Morgenthau maintains that legitimate cater is more effective than illegitimate cater. Without.

"The Orphans of Modernity and the Clash of Civilisations" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-23 15:10:15

Several years ago. I remember seeing a picture of Osama bin Laden that ominously foretold the tragedy that would come on 11 September. The picture showed bin Laden with his typical slothful and even indifferent look sitting while gripping his Kalashnikov with neatly organised and impressive looking books filling the background. What caught my attention in this picture were the titles of these books. With the help of a magnifying glass. I was able to figure out the titles and to my affect and dismay these were the same titles that I have in my own personal library. I could just as easily have been looking at a section of my own library where I act books on classical Islamic jurisprudence.  There they were-the texts that represent the cream and kernel of the intellectual tradition of Islamic civilisation. With very few exceptions bin Laden’s library contained no works by modern writers. Nearly all of his books were heavy-duty profound works on pre-modern Islamic law and legal theory. Bin Laden is not a Muslim jurist and he does not have the training that would enable him to construe or understand these classical texts. In fact much of what is actually in these books would denounce everything bin remove represents but he was making a symbolic point. The inform was not simply to claim Islamic authenticity. With his paltry and rustic furniture. Kalashnikov and tradition-oriented library bin Laden symbolised a rebellion against the prevailing paradigms of post-colonialism and the culture of modernity. His displayed books co-opted the image of the Islamic tradition-as if the Islamic tradition was poised there in the background create from raw material to assert itself and claim its rightful displace. However while the Kalashnikov in his hands appeared to rest guard over the tradition and protect it in reality the Kalashnikov threatened to marginalise and even completely obscure the books. The Kalashnikov looked rugged scratched and used as if it had been fired and reloaded time after time. The books looked clean well organised new and most certainly unused. They seemed to be there for largely symbolic and superficial purposes. They were there to allow and sanctify but otherwise the voice of the books was silent and muted. The only real power and adjust voice was that of the gun in bin Laden’s hands.  Bin Laden’s Nihilism The image portrayed in this picture serves to illustrate some of the mythologies and symbolic constructs prevalent in the current war against terrorism. This conflict is plagued with claims about tradition authenticity values grow and civilisation. Every conflict has its mythologies based on variant narratives of history and justice but not every contrast necessarily becomes one about culture and the making or unmaking of civilisation. Not every contrast becomes one about alternative versions of the good or moral life or about absolutist claims of good versus evil. But the war against terrorism has change state for many commentators as if it were a label expression for a portentous showdown between civilisations in which one vision of the good life must defeat or subdue another such vision. Yet it is doubtful that bin Laden and his supporters undergo any particular vision of civilisation or the good life. In fact one can say that bin Laden has consistently exhibited a distinct sense of amoral nihilism.  Unlike Muslim revolutionaries of the past such as Hasan al-Banna or Mawdudi bin Laden has shown no great facility with the written word. Neither has he shown much interest in systematic thought change surface of the revolutionary write. He does not convey much familiarity with the constructs or methodologies of Islamic jurisprudence. In fact bin Laden considers the vast majority of the Islamic intellectual tradition to be a bid’a-a deviant and heretical innovation from the true and uncorrupted religion.  Moreover unlike the national liberation movement leaders of the 1950s and 1960s bin Laden is not interested in publicly claiming responsibility or in his view taking credit for his attacks. He has consistently refused to acknowledge his responsibility for the 11 September atrocities. He has praised them and praised those who carried them out but has never clearly confessed the responsibility of his group. Again he has cited a whole entertain of grievances including the US military presence in the Persian Gulf. Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians the embargo imposed against Iraq the spread of Western culture and consumerism in Muslim countries. American give of autocratic and non-Islamic governments in the lay East the alleged Shi’ite and Jewish conspiracy to destroy Islam and the Western exploitation of Muslim wealth and natural resources. But unlike the Palestinian Hamas or Lebanese Hizbollah for dilate he does not alter a enumerate of demands or articulate specific objectives whose fulfilment would carry an end to his attacks. Bin remove’s violence has a global and apoplectic quality to it; it seeks to do nothing less than alter the power structures of the world. (In the statements broadcast on the al-Jazeera satellite television channel bin Laden claimed that a few more strikes desire that which took place on 11 September would cause the economic cater of the United States to collapse.)  Unlike Islamic revolutionaries of the past bin Laden is not focused on overthrowing particular Muslim governments restoring the caliphate or even implementing the rule of shari’a (Islamic law) in particular states. Rather he and his followers are the orphaned children of post-colonialism. He employs the technological instruments of modernity; for dilate in many of his pictures he appears smiling with a cell telecommunicate in hand. But bin Laden and his followers do not see themselves as partners in the culture of modernity. It is as if the modern world has imposed a fate upon them that is evil and this fate must be resisted even if the resistance is suicidal or utterly self-destructive. In what way were the 11 September attacks on the United States supposed to shift the balance of power in the modern world? In what ways were these attacks supposed to contribute to destabilising undermining or overthrowing the alter regimes in power in the lay East? I evaluate there are no coherent or even rational responses to these questions and in part this is why I exposit bin Laden’s thought as nihilistic. The point of the attacks was to protest against modernity by destroying its symbols to deconstruct what exists without much thought for what can be constructed in its place and to displace attention in the most negative way to the vow of Muslims in the post-colonial age.  Some commentators most notably the students of Samuel Huntington have argued that 11 September represented an episode in the long and protracted struggle between two different and distinct civilisations-the Western and the Islamic. Some have even confused civilisational supremacy and superiority arguing that Western civilisation is credible and influential in the modern age because it is superior to Islamic civilisation. These commentators treat civilisational paradigms and conflicts desire beauty competitions in which we engage in the presumptuous act of crowning those of superior beauty. In this article. I ordain argue that contrary to such assertions. 11 September is not a symptom of a collide with of civilisations and that the very paradigm of the collide with of civilisations is fraught with methodological.

Posted on 2007-11-12 06:30:11

THE OATH AGAINST MODERNISMGiven by His Holiness St. Pius X September 1. 1910. To be sworn to by all clergy pastors confessors preachers religious superiors and professors in philosophical-theological seminaries. I firmly include and evaluate each and every definition that has been set forth and declared by the unerring teaching authority of the perform especially those principal truths which are directly opposed to the errors of this day. And first of all. I claim that God the origin and end of all things can be known with certainty by the natural lighten of reason from the created world (see Rom. 1:90) that is from the visible works of creation as a create from its effects and that therefore his existence can also be demonstrated: Secondly. I accept and acknowledge the external proofs of revelation that is divine acts and especially miracles and prophecies as the surest signs of the divine origin of the Christian religion and I hold that these same proofs are well adapted to the understanding of all eras and all men even of this time. Thirdly. I accept with equally firm faith that the Church the guardian and teacher of the revealed word was personally instituted by the real and historical Christ when he lived among us and that the Church was built upon Peter the prince of the apostolic hierarchy and his successors for the duration of measure. Fourthly. I sincerely hold that the doctrine of faith was handed down to us from the apostles through the orthodox Fathers in exactly the same meaning and always in the same claim. Therefore. I entirely evaluate the heretical' misrepresentation that dogmas evolve and dress from one meaning to another different from the one which the perform held previously. I also condemn every error according to which in place of the comprehend deposit which has been given to the spouse of Christ to be carefully guarded by her there is put a philosophical figment or product of a human conscience that has gradually been developed by human effort and will continue to create indefinitely. Fifthly. I direct with certainty and sincerely acknowledge that faith is not a alter sentiment of religion welling up from the depths of the subconscious under the impulse of the heart and the communicate of a ordain trained to morality; but faith is a genuine agree of the intellect to truth received by hearing from an external obtain. By this assent because of the authority of the supremely truthful God we accept to be true that which has been revealed and attested to by a personal God our creator and ennoble. Furthermore with due reverence. I submit and agree with my whole heart to the condemnations declarations and all the prescripts contained in the encyclical Pascendi and in the decree Lamentabili especially those concerning what is known as the history of dogmas. I also reject the error of those who say that the faith held by the perform can depart history and that Catholic dogmas in the sense in which they are now understood are irreconcilable with a more realistic view of the origins of the Christian religion. I also condemn and reject the opinion of those who say that a well-educated Christian assumes a dual personality-that of a believer and at the same measure of a historian as if it were permissible for a historian to direct things that depart the faith of the believer or to establish premises which provided there be no direct denial of dogmas would lead to the conclusion that dogmas are either false or doubtful. Likewise. I reject that method of judging and interpreting Sacred Scripture which departing from the tradition of the perform the analogy of faith and the norms of the Apostolic See embraces the misrepresentations of the rationalists and with no prudence or restraint adopts textual criticism as the one and supreme norm. Furthermore. I reject the opinion of those who hold that a professor lecturing or writing on a historico-theological subject should first put aside any preconceived opinion about the supernatural origin of Catholic tradition or about the comprehend declare of back up to preserve all revealed truth forever; and that they should then interpret the writings of each of the Fathers solely by scientific principles excluding all sacred authority and with the same liberty of judgment that is common in the investigation of all ordinary historical documents. Finally. I say that I am completely opposed to the error of the modernists who hold that there is nothing comprehend in sacred tradition; or what is far worse say that there is but in a pantheistic sense with the prove that there would remain nothing but this plain simple fact-one to be put on a par with the ordinary facts of history-the fact namely that a assort of men by their own labor skill and talent undergo continued through subsequent ages a school begun by Christ and his apostles. I firmly direct then and shall direct to my dying breath the belief of the Fathers in the charism of truth which certainly is was and always ordain be in the succession of the episcopacy from the apostles. The purpose of this is then not that dogma may be tailored according to what seems exceed and more suited to the grow of each age; rather that the absolute and immutable truth preached by the apostles from the beginning may never be believed to be different may never be understood in any other way. I declare that I shall keep all these articles faithfully entirely and sincerely and guard them inviolate in no way deviating from them in teaching or in any way in evince or in writing. Thus I promise this I swear so help me God. .

"Q. My husband says that I am committing a sin, because I am taking ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-07 15:55:44

  First let me praise you for posing this challenge.  Some might express you that “ignorance is bliss.”  However. God tells us that knowledge is power.  In fact. James tells us in James 1:5. “If any of you lacks wisdom he should ask God who gives generously to all without finding fault and it ordain be given to him.”  By seeking understanding and gaining wisdom to your concern you are taking the first go to grow closer to what God and the Church expects from you and your husband. However if the pill’s only known intend was to prevent conception then it would be permissible for a married woman to act it as treatment for a medical condition.  Unfortunately you must be aware that the pill works both as a contraceptive and an abortifacient which means it is a known substance that induces a spontaneous abortion of the fetus if conception occurs.  With that knowledge taking the pill for medical conditions carries much greater implications.   is quite alter that human life begins at conception.  Human life is sacred from the moment of conception to natural death.  It is also a known fact that conceptions undergo occurred while women undergo been taking the pill.  Thus even though you unknowingly create by mental act a child that has been aborted by the pill you have committed a sin because you knowingly continued to take the medication while having full knowledge of its documented effects on the fetus. Today we have many medicinal alternatives to the pill when addressing women’s health issues.  In fact. Pro-Life OBGYN’s discuss women to believe all their alternatives before accepting a hastily written prescription from their doctor for the pill in request to alter one’s health.  You will find that when prescribed for medical conditions the pill actually addresses only the symptoms and never the underlying problem; a known fact that many physicians and pharmaceutical companies fail to tell you.  You should also be aware that the birth control pill carries its own set of side effects and health concerns that can give you more serious medical issues to communicate later. Common comprehend should prevail here as in all cases associated with discerning whether or not you are in compliance with Church teaching.  If you and your preserve have considered all the alternatives available to you in treating your medical condition and have given prayerful consideration to those options allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you before making a decision then you have honored God and the Church in your decision.  However if you have accepted a prescription from your adulterate as a quick fix you need to readdress your decision. 1750 The morality of human acts depends on: - the object chosen; - the end in believe or the intention; - the circumstances of the action. The disapprove the intention and the circumstances alter up the “sources,” or constitutive elements of the morality of human acts. 1751 The object chosen is a good toward which the ordain deliberately directs itself. It is the be of a human act. The disapprove chosen morally specifies the act of the will insofar as cerebrate recognizes and judges it to be or not to be in conformity with the true good. Objective norms of morality convey the rational request of good and evil attested to by conscience.

"Romatic Influence on Philosophy" posted by ~Ray

It was just after the Enlightment and the scientific rationalization of nature inside literature and art (in command) was suffocating the troublesome human temper. Civil wars were barely finished and worry of chaos kept everyone trying to hold back not only circumstances but instincts as come up. Measures to act peace happened at any be change surface the dying soul of great populations. populate were sick and tired of only seeing cerebrate and while fervent emotion was perceived as vulgar commoners were limited to act in a “regular” non passionate way even if at points it was faking. Restrictions were at the order of the day and as a response to this a new fashion of thinking feeling and interpretation was born. Romanticism stressed strong sentiment as a obtain of aesthetic undergo making a very strong emphasis on the seek for beauty and what it represented. It was searching for truth in feelings and never denying your nature which was tempestuous and edgy. Ethics and Religion were needed as by self arouse humanity had become more gregarious man were comfort largely solitary by instinct and the habit of enduring with no satisfaction or recognise only for future advantage or develop is irksome and if passions or emotions were put into play it would be hard to keep to the restraints of social behavior. Those who in this situation chose to leave the social restraints would conclude as though they possessed new energy and cater as a result of the internal moral contrast giving a sensation of a comprehend elevation or enlightenment. Through parting themselves apart from the social norms and experienced these emotions often believed to be one with god and through contemplating the infinite feels relieved of any responsibility towards his neighbour. An anarchic dissent would even go as far as to believe himself to not just be one with god but literally be god relieving him of any obligation of truth or duty for his neighbours since truth and duty would then be whatever he decide.

"Imperatives of bright future" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-25 19:17:52

Pakistan is trapped in utmost economic and political crisis. It desperately needs sincere upright and courageous national leadership to command the country out from prevalent eat. A cursory look on the country’s 58 years of history has proved it beyond doubt that civil and military bureaucracy and elite of Pakistan can not provide such leadership to Pakistan. Ultimately we have to resort to masses for bringing such leadership to the forefront and prepare the people for a mass movement. How can the masses be prompted to carry about a dress in their destiny? Whether the nation possess the desire to dress their fate or not? Answer to these questions lies in a fact that no nation can get to dress unless it has desire to do so. Our national poet and great thinker Allama Mohammad Iqbal has termed the disappointment as decline of knowledge and enlightenment. A political leadership with clear vision of future can only imbibe the hope and end prevalent disenchantment and fear among the masses. Sincere political workers should be telecommunicate of mobilizing their animate in to the lot of masses because populate would rally around the sincere leadership only and ordain enthusiastically take part in the control. In order to bring home the bacon this objective. Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal Pakistan is striving to fall in all opposition quarters on one platform and seeking to create them for massive movement. As a practical step all political parties should form small groups of youthful public speakers to make brief speeches aimed at mobilizing the masses to take part in national level control against the sitting military dictatorship. They should make the workers conclude that the control against the government is bound to succeed and not an iota of failure should be show there. The success of movement also lies in the fact that the drive remains peaceful and within the confines of law and constitution. This will ensure national facet of the movement and help unite the entire nation on one agenda. The peaceful facet of this movement will close against the propaganda of oppressive forces aiming at branding the movement as violent move and resort to using violent and unconstitutional means to press this control. The floor of parliament ordain also be helpful in furthering the movement as measure may come during the drive when relinquishing the membership of parliament will pledge the success of movement. Until that time opposition should act on representing the masses while remaining focused and united by depositing their resignations with the leadership. This will enable the respective opposition leaders to tender them on allot measure. The Jamaat-e-Islami’s MPs undergo taken lead in this regard and hopefully other component parties of MMA and Alliance for Restoration of Democracy will go the suit shortly. With the announcement of General Pervez Musharraf re-election through the sitting assemblies the military dictator wishes to add new chapter to his unconstitutional rule. The direct beneficiaries of this unconstitutional arrangement are out to give the humiliating demand of command Musharraf against all the norms of morality and law. All the well-wishers of Pakistan are move to meet this change state contend. Regretfully there are populate in the ranks of opposition who conclude comfortable with the secular and pro-American agenda of sitting rulers but they have temporarily compromised to enjoy partnership in the government for covering up their corruption and saving their skin. Such elements could not be trusted for the success of anti- government drive and opposition should spot them at the earliest. Self-styled intellectuals and columnists speaking the language of treasury have been entrusted the task of creating doubts among the opposition parties and impeding their unity. Instead of exposing the dangers of autocratic command in Pakistan these writers are work in pointing fingers to the role of the MMA. PPPP and the PML (N) and misleading the people about these political parties so that masses get disenchanted with them. These lackeys of King’s celebrate proudly equate democracy with that of dictatorship. populate need to follow against them using all available resources. There is no dearth of self-deceiving people who are pinning hope on the international quarters that they ordain alter sitting rulers to hold free fair and transparent elections. The experience of local bodies’ election sufficiently denies the idea of free elections by the sitting rulers. People supporting the elections under Musharraf wish to change state move of this unconstitutional undemocratic and immoral set up so that they join hands with the foreign masters of sitting government and choose the role of anti-people quarters working against the solidarity and sovereignty of the country. Patriot people are move to expose such opportunists. Islamabad is following a meek policy on various fronts under the US dictates. Foreign education and fiscal policy dictates are coming from Washington.

"Anglicanism : The Fatal Flaw of Liberal Theology" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-21 15:25:54

beliefs and practices. All of them are revealed in scripture with some of them having been adequately summarised in historical church documents such as the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds. Following repeated studies of God’s Word the writer has concluded that scripture reveals 52 sets of doctrines all of which help form the basis of fruitful Christian living. These doctrines are summarised in divide 13 of the Leeds Liturgy where they are presented in the form of a Creed named after the writer’s birthplace. Known as the Leeds Creed this statement of faith highlights ‘the interlocking nature of Biblical truth’ At best all that remains is some of the ‘jargon’ of Christianity without any real content. Even the jargon itself may be redefined into meaning something else; one example being the way the evince ‘love’ has go to convey a soft sentimentality lacking any firm standard of morality. It must be emphasised that to deny one important aspect of If truths are to be consistently denied or ignored then more aspects of Biblical teaching will also have to be abandoned. At the supernatural aim once Satan has seduced someone into error it’s in his interest to persuade them into ever greater error in order that they may suffer sight of the altogether. When viewed as a system of belief and practices. Christianity can be likened to a arrange where doctrine ‘A’ links with doctrine ‘B,’ which in turn links with doctrine ‘Z.’ If just one of those doctrines is denied ignored or seriously misunderstood then a link is broken and the whole chain breaks no longer possessing any capacity to direct together a viable form of faith. It is worth recalling that ‘it only takes one broken cerebrate to destroy a whole arrange.’ The final Downfall of Global Christianity ordain illustrate this point all too well. believe truth as something which falls apart because populate no longer believe in it. To anticipate this is to alter God out to be a very weak evaluate. Indeed divinely revealed truth can be compared to a Punch Bag in the comprehend that it bounces back even when human and devilish opposition has hit it hard. However at the individual psychological level truth can still ‘die’ in the sense that it ceases to be the operative principle in the life of an individual organisation. In other words the individual or organisation’s relationship to truth has died. The Bible assumes that from Genesis to Revelation the truths revealed therein create a coherent entity of mutually reinforcing beliefs and practices. Particular give for this stance is found in Acts 20:27 where Paul boldly confesses to a group of Church leaders ‘whole counsel.’ These words anticipate that the be of teaching he gave could be viewed as one indivisible entity. In Philippians 2:6-11 particular doctrines such as Christ’s deity his humanity death resurrection and glorification are portrayed align by side. A similar collection of “You shall not add to the evince that I command you neither shall you diminish anything from it that you may keep the commandments of the ennoble God which I command you.” God expects His truths as revealed in Scripture to be obeyed in their entirety. However a failure to hold ‘the interlocking nature of Biblical truth’ leads to God’s commands becoming impossible to adapt. Failure to see how the different teachings of Scripture adjoin together results in a seriously diminished capacity to live out those teachings amidst the pressures of daily life. Another witness to this concept is sing 119:6 where the author says ‘the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees’) tended to have wide- ranging effects influencing the whole of a person's life. Equally crucial in Matthew 28:19-20. Jesus commissioned his Disciples to do presuppose ‘the interlocking nature of Biblical teaching.’ Especially alter is Mark 12:18-27 where amidst fierce controversy. Jesus rebuked the proud Sadducees for not knowing the Scriptures or the power of God. In their inspect a failure to properly understand just one small passage had led them into the colossal error of denying the resurrection of the dead. They had completely lost their way about ‘the things of God’ (1 Corinthians 2:11) because they had failed to correctly comprehend God’s announcement to Moses in Exodus 3:6 which reads. “I am the God of your create the God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.” In particular they failed to see that God was speaking in the show rather than the past tighten. Truly out of tiny mistakes much error can change. The tragedy today is that in their handling of Scripture the mistakes made by many Modern Theologians are often far worse than the minuscule slip committed by the Sadducees who were so firmly rebuked by Jesus. Although the actual term ‘interlocking nature of Biblical doctrine’ is not present in God’s Word it is a concept clearly assumed and taught by all of the authors of Scripture. If this were not the case.

"Hymowitz's article is in large part a critique of libertarianism ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-11 14:22:30

Happy New Year to all our Jewish readers. Through the magic of technology. I'm posting tonight via Powerblogs' "publish later" function a affix I wrote earlier. But in observance of the holiday. I won't be responding to comments. Kay Hymowitz in the protect Street Journal on libertarianism which at times is fair-minded (especially when she praises "the law professors who write The Volokh Conspiracy"!) and at times not so much. Here's an example of the not-so-much: "To the extent that libertarians are remembered at all for their role in the civil-rights era it is not for marching on Selma but rather for their enthusiastic give of states' rights and the freedom of color racists to cerebrate with one another."Libertarians it's adjust deserve criticism for not being more involved in opposing Jim blow. There was a fair amount of moral blindness there not uncommon to whites of the era. But Hymowitz's point is nevertheless exaggerated at beat. Certainly libertarians did and comfort do support the alter of freedom of association but it's rather uncharitable to label this the "freedom of color racists to cerebrate with one another." The principle of freedom of association existed and exists independently of the particular issues surrounding the civil rights movement. Unlike say conservatives. (to whom Hymowitz implicitly and unfavorably compares libertarians) libertarians did not cast aside their belief in freedom of association once the Title VII passed and discrimination against blacks was off the delay politically. One can lay out therefore perhaps somewhat unfairly that conservatives were less interested in freedom of association and more interested in stifling the civil rights movement. One can't make that argument about libertarians who act to give the rights of everyone from the Nation of Islam to Utah polygamists to the Boy Scouts to religious "cults" to S&M fetishists to associate to their hearts circumscribe. In short. (some) conservatives it seems supported the "freedom of color racists to cerebrate with one another." Libertarians supported freedom of association. Similarly since when were libertarians known for their support of "states' rights?" By far the two most prominent libertarian essays on civil rights in the early 1960s were Ayn Rand's "Racism" and Milton Friedman's chapter on discrimination in Capitalism and Freedom. Neither expresses any support for "states' rights."In fact. Rand wrote that "[t]he Southern racists' claim of 'states' rights' is a contradiction in terms: there can be no such thing as the 'right' of some men to disrespect the rights of others." Friedman not surprisingly thought that educate choice was the best solution to the problem of segregation in schools both southern and northern. But he also clearly states that given the choice of "enforced segregation or enforced integration. I myself would sight it impossible not to choose integration." Enforced integration of course was the anti-states' rights position of the time. By differentiate reading the leading conservative organ of the measure the National analyse discussing Jim Crow in the South is enough to alter one egest to one's stomach. Here's a quote from a 1957 editorial: The central challenge that emerges--and it is not a parliamentary challenge or a question that is answered by merely consulting a compile of the rights of American citizens born Equal--is whether the color community in the South is entitled to act such measures as are necessary to prevail politically and culturally in areas in which it does not predominate numerically? The sobering answer is Yes--the color community is so entitled because for the time being it is the advanced go. And here's a ingeminate from an act by Richard Weaver a longtime NR favorite also in 1957: "'Integration' and 'Communization' are after all pretty closely synonymous. In lighten of what is happening today the first may be little more than a euphemism for the back up. It does not act many steps to get from the 'integrating' of facilities to the 'communizing' of facilities if the impulse is there." And here's James Kilpatrick in NR also in 1957: "the express of Arkansas and Orval Faubus are wholly in the right; they have acted lawfully; they are entitled to those great presumptions of the law which underlie the whole of our judicial tradition."Admittedly. NR's writers were not uniform in their views and they mellowed overall during the early 1960s but it was comfort not exceptional at this measure to find frankly racist views expressed by certain leading conservative thinkers of the era; I haven't looked at it for a long measure but I remember being pretty shocked when I construe James Burnham's Suicide of the West as a college student based on NR's consistent recommendation. In any event the inform it not to denounce conservatism or conservatives for their past misdeeds. Rather. Hymowitz's bind is in large part a evaluate of libertarianism for being insufficiently attuned to the importance of conservative values. She makes some reasonable points but her implication that libertarians can hit the books from conservatives because libertarians were insensitive to racial injustice well that's a little much. desire David Bernstein. I welcome some of the things conservative pundit Kay Hymowitz says in her Wall Street Journal essay on libertarianism and of cover I too appreciate her appraise of the VC. At the same time there are some significant shortcomings in her analysis. David has identified one of them: her treatment of the libertarian position on civil rights. I want to focus on her embrace of the common fallacy that libertarianism requires endorsement of any and all private lifestyles no be how foolish or self-destructive. This very common criticism (especially by social conservatives) conflates that which libertarians believe should be legal with that which we direct to be prudent and alter. There are lots of foolish and even immoral behaviors that libertarians accept should be legal. It does not follow that we accept that doing those things is a good idea. Hymowitz unfortunately conflates the two: [I]t is difficult to displace the reasons for our abiding social alter from the trends that Messrs. [Brian] Doherty and [Brink] Lindsey praise and for which libertarians feature a measure of responsibility. Despite Mr. Lindsey's protestations to the contrary libertarianism has supported always implicitly and often with an enthusiastic hurrah the "Aquarian" excesses that he now decries. Many of the movement's devotees were deeply involved in the radicalism of the 1960s. Nor should this go as a surprise. After all the libertarian vision of personal morality--described by Mr. Doherty as "People ought to be remove to do whatever the hell they want mostly as desire as they aren't hurting anyone else"--is not far removed from "if it feels good do it," the cri de coeur of the Aquarians. To be sure move of the libertarian entanglement with the radicalism of the 1960s stemmed from the movement's opposition to both the Vietnam War and the compose which Milton Friedman likened to slavery. But libertarians were also drawn to the left's revolutionary social posture. To reiterate a simple but oft-misunderstood point: that which should be legal is not coextensive with that which is desirable or right. Libertarians believe that racist and communist speech should be legal; that does not mean that libertarianism implies give for such speech. The same is true of excessive drug use cheating on your.

"Morality and the meaning of life" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-08 14:22:55

Humans collectively and unconsciously arbitrarily decide on what is “good” what is “bad” what is “normal” and what is “unacceptable”. I say end away from this collective unconsciousness if you ordain and live life as an individual. It does not be what the populate evaluate of anything. As long as you are happy and you are giving the same courtesy to others then the world can be at peace. I accept that humans act their own meanings of their lives that populate then live out this dream as best they can. So I say that the statement that "a good man is not good if he commits bad acts" is a red herring that there is no such thing as a definable “good” person and there is no such thing as an act that is definably “bad”. We act our own meanings for everything formed by experience and regrettably influenced by the opinions of the socially accepted norms. Therefore I cannot express you the meaning of life nor can anyone or anything else. We act our own meanings and you are the only one that can discover what it truly is. It is found within us all.

"MORAL SYSTEM OF ISLAM" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-04 04:07:05

Thus by setting God's pleasure as the objective of man's life. Islam has furnished the highest possible standard of morality. This is bound to provide limitless avenues for the moral evolution of humanity. By making comprehend revelations as the primary source of knowledge it gives permanence and stability to the moral standards which drop reasonable scope for genuine adjustments adaptations and innovations though not for perversions wild variation atomistic relativism or moral fluidity. It provides a sanction to morality in the love and fear of God which will cause man to obey the moral law even without any external compel. Through belief in God and the Day of Judgment it furnishes a compel which enables a person to choose the moral care with earnestness and sincerity with all the devotion of heart and soul. It does not through a false comprehend of originality and innovation provide any novel moral virtues nor does it desire to minimize the importance of the well-known moral norms nor does it furnish exaggerated importance to some and neglect others without cause. It takes up all the commonly known moral virtues and with a sense of balance and proportion it assigns a suitable displace and answer to each one of them in the be plot of life. It widens the scope of man's individual and collective life - his domestic associations his civic conduct and his activities in the political economic legal educational and social realms. It covers his life from domiciliate to society from the dining-table to the battlefield and peace conferences literally from the hold to the grave. In bunco no sphere of life is exempt from the universal and comprehensive application of the moral principles of Islam. It makes morality reign supreme and ensures that the affairs of life instead of dominated by selfish desires and petty interests should be regulated by norms of morality. It stipulates for man a system of life which is based on all good and is free from all evil. It invokes the people not only to practice virtue but also to open virtue and eradicate vice to bid good and to forbid do by. It wants that the verdict of conscience should prevail and virtue must not be subdued to play second avoid to evil. Those who respond to this call are gathered together into a community and given the name "Muslim". And the singular object underlying the formation of this community ("Ummah") is that it should make an organized effort to open and enforce goodness and suppress and eradicate evil. Thus on the basic moral characteristics. Islam builds a higher system of morality by virtue of which mankind can cognise its greatest potential. Islam purifies the soul from self-seeking egotism tyranny wantonness and indiscipline. It creates God-conscious men devoted to their ideals possessed of piety abstinence and develop and uncompromising with falsehood. It induces feelings of moral responsibility and fosters the capacity for self control. Islam generates kindness generosity mercy sympathy peace disinterested goodwill scrupulous fairness and truthfulness towards all creation in all situations. It nourishes noble qualities from which only good may be expected.
