we can obtain necessary data on any event through watching the Earth from

Religion: Instrument of Intolerance?

On Thursday, Pope John Paul II received Caucasus Muslim, Orthodox Christian
and Jewish religious leaders from Azerbaijan. The religious visitors came
under the auspices of returning the favor of a visit paid by the Pope in
2002. John Paul II greeted his guests in Russian saying, "May your visit
to the Pope of Rome be a symbol for the world, namely, may it show that tolerance
is possible, and is a value of civilization, which posits the premises for
a fuller and more solidaristic human, civil and social development." He told
them: "No one has the right to present or use religions as instrument of
intolerance, as a means of aggression, violence or death." JPII continued,
"On the contrary, their reciprocal friendship and esteem, if supported also
by the government leaders' commitment to tolerance, constitutes a rich resource
of authentic progress and peace. .... Together -- Muslims, Jews, Christians
-- we wish to address in the name of God and of civilization an appeal to
humanity to halt murderous violence and undertake the path of love and justice
for all." In a later statement a Vatican spokesman said that "during the
audience the religious leaders confirmed to the Pope their constant commitment
to collaborate with peace and to promote peaceful coexistence among the different
religions."

Peru Ado

An AFP brief from Lima Peru reported that that country's constitutional court
declared that a law prohibiting gay-sex in the military was unconstitutional
and "completely discriminatory". The court has thusly granted gays in the
military the freedom to have sex legally. Gays in the Peruvian armed forces
had been subject to expulsion or prison sentences if they engaged in homosexual
relations within or outside their barracks.

Romans 1:22-32 Professing themselves to be wise, they
became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image
made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping
things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts
of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature
more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God
gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural
use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving
the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men
with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that
recompence of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to
retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to
do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness,
fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder,
debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful,
proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without
understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable,
unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such
things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them
that do them.

around for [pagan] Christmas season pies. According to AP sources, EU
supermarkets are warning that supplies of the rendered pig-fat shortening

Devilish Ad

Pfizer Inc., maker of Viagra, has been ordered by the FDA to pull certain
TV ads for the product that fail to indicate the what the proper legal use
of the drug is and known risks associated with the product. The ads, termed
by Associated Press as "cheeky," portray a middle-aged couple looking in
the window of a lingerie store. The ad says "Remember that guy who used to
be called 'Wild Thing? ... The guy who wanted to spend the entire honeymoon
indoors?'' As the commercial proceeds, blue-colored horns come up out of
the man's head and the words "He's back" are written on his forehead. The
two horns then morph into the letter "V" of Viagra. Pfizer's Viagra Web site
has a headline "Get back to mischief" and shows a man with the blue horns.
The drug, used for treatment of erectile dysfunction, carries a host of warnings
and undesireable side-effects.

Food and Drug Administration regulatory review officer, Christine Hemler
Smith, informed Pfizer in a letter posted on the FDA's Web site: "The TV
ads omit the indication for the drug (namely, erectile dysfunction ) and
fail to provide information relating to the major side effects and
contraindications of the drug, as required." Smith continued, "The TV ads
claim that Viagra will provide a return to a previous level of sexual desire
and activity. ... FDA is not aware of substantial evidence or substantial
clinical experience demonstrating this benefit for patients who take Viagra."

Pfizer made $1.1 billion in sales to American men last year alone.

Notable Quotes & Quotable Notes

"From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, down to Trotsky
(Russia), Bela Kun (Hungary), Rosa Luxemburg (Germany) and Emma Goldman (USA),
this world-wide conspiracy [communism] for the overthrow of
civilization and for the reconstruction of society on the basis of arrested
development, of envious malevolence, and impossible equality, has been steadily
growing. It played . . . a definitely recognizable part in the tragedy
of the French Revolution. It has been the mainspring of every subversive
movement, during the Nineteenth Century; and now, at last, this band of
extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe
and America have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads and
have become practically the undisputed masters of that enormous empire."
- (ILLUSTRATED SUNDAY HERALD, February 8, 1920, quoting Winston Churchill
about the Bolsheviks in Russia)

"Socialism was originated by Jews[Judaism]; and today Jews play a
leading role in its spread and interpretation." - ( Martin A. Meyer,
Jew and Non-Jew pamphlet published by the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations.)

"Certainly we find a strong Jewish participation throughout the socialist
movement which, from its inception up to the present day, has been largely
dominated by Jewish influence" - (Jewish Contributions to Civilizations
by Joseph Jacobs published by The Jewish Publication Society of America.)

"Jews have been prominently identified with the modern Socialist movement
from its very inception. ...The Socialist theory was regarded as an
application of the principles of democracy to the industrial organization
of society ... " - ( The Jewish Encyclopedia - 1905; under the heading
'Socialism.')

"If the final authority for the atheistic communist conspiracy could be
unmasked, it would be Satan." - (The late Dr. Bella V. Dodd who had been
an active member of the Communist Party, U.S.A., (CPUSA) since college and
by the mid-'40s had become a member of the party's inner circle leadership.
However, by 1950 she left the party and embraced Christianity.)
