  1. Jesus in China .

    Nah , just having a bit of fun , but I find the art work interesting ; the Chinese style of art depicting well known Christian subjects seems an interesting contrast . Wang Suda 1939 - 41 ; Jesus accused in front of Pilate . Prodigal Son Exorcism https://digital-exhibits.library.nd.edu/c9dfb1b9e1/chinese-catholic-themed-paintings-from-xinxiang-henan-province-1939-1941
  2. I just tried again ; it has a few lines of text and 5 images .... I removed a smilie in case that was it .... nope what are ; '' the marked tabs '' and how do I ''check their values '' ?
  3. about 4 hrs ago I tried to make a thread in Abrahamic forum about the difference between how we commonly perceive angels now and what we think they look like , comparing them to images constructed from Biblical accounts . It had several images in it ; I got the notice so went back and looked at the post box , some images didnt show so I removed them, but still would not post and had this red banner at the top . I will try again later
  4. site will not accept a post . what does this mean ? Something went wrong. Check the values provided on the marked tabs and try again
  5. The Wisdom of Mars

    I saw this many moons ago and liked it . But I missed the significance of the Martians ' how to live ' speech 10/10 !

    Even just 'generally ' I have stopped telling the younger generations how good I had it , its too sad ( for me ) to see the look on their faces . Lust a few examples of what I got ; Free University education - many have a debt hanging over their heads . Virtually unknown for young people to have high personal debts Abundance of cheap housing and good jobs . vehicles and fuel much cheaper ( compared to wages ) etc etc etc

    Mark Carney Candaian PM's visit to Oz and his an talk about 'middle powers' ... It could be the seed of a future alternative stance ... maybe ? We certainly need something ... anything ! .... different !
  10. Stranger things

    Of course, that was the case here , with the one concerned . A while back a woman I know left her kid at a friends house and went off to 'kill herself' ... as she told her little daughter .... who then told her minders , who then told authorities . They found her locked in her car , she went to psyche ward , they shot her up full of drugs and released her ... to continue 'caring' for her daughter .
  11. Stranger things

    I spent the day with his Mom .... she is holding up rather well considering - so far . She is still staying with one of her daughters and two women friends - thats probably for the best - one is being her 'secretary ' ( navigating communications with lawyers, mental health etc . the other is emotional support , cooking etc ) so she seems in good hands . I got a call from a younger guy I know that needed to talk as he said 'to someone not in the middle of it' . That means , that although I know the perpetrator's family and friend circle , I dont know the victim's . Thats not the case in the area ; many of the younger people know both and are all interconnected eg ; the victim's remaining two sisters are friends of the perpetrator's two sisters . So there is a lot of 'social shock ' going on out there . However , as it usually pans out IF I am 'emergency needed ' I am called upon and do my best to deliver , after that I am totally ignored and on my own . Thats okay I am used to it and prefer it , so now I am back in hermitage and relatively isolated 'out here ' , suits me fine at the moment - even the local store has a huge cloud of freaked out around it ( those two guys and one of their girl friends had been camped at the local camp ground next door to the shop for a couple of weeks before they moved further out into the wilderness , where 'it' happened . - so they were all well known there ) .

    .... when you get woken up by an early phone call one of those 'you better sit down for this ' ones . I tried to help the kid for years, on and off ; from when he was a toddler up to late 20s . The son of my closest female friend I have at the moment . He has been 'up and down' , last I saw him he didnt look good ... I got that flashing red light thing happening . I told his mum but she was overly mother defensive , claiming she thought he looked good . I said '' What ? We both KNOW he is not 'good' . '' she sad I knocked the bottom out of her world . .. sometimes one just cant get through to another . Anyway , it all broke loose last night . He killed his best friend with an ax at a local camp ground . Areas taped off by police , people totally freaked out , cops be everywhere soon , friend's 'axe murderer son' at large ..... HOOOO - BOY ! I better move into 'high support mode ' .
  13. Martial Arts

    Ahhhh ... I 'got ' Sinawali 14 this morning ! A little difficult ... until I took a break, and drummed it out on the djembe ... then it was only another 10 mins on the sticks . '
  14. It has got worse over the last few days ... from this end . Most of the time I cant open the site and when I do, everything takes so long, its not really worth coming here . ? Every other site I go to operates smooth and fast .
  15. Where is this old post

    By the way ... if you are looking for your glasses and hat .... you are wearing them .
  16. don't quite buy it

    Couple at dinner ; Woman ; '' Excuse me for a moment , I have to go the Ladies Room to ..... powder my nose .'' Man ; '' So ... going to use the toilet are you ? Why do women say that ?'' Woman ; '' Because, we are actually going in there to some lines of coke and we dont want to give you any .''
  17. What are you practising for?

    ........
  18. don't quite buy it

    and what is the cosmic lesson for people that wear cosmetics ?
  19. don't quite buy it

    YES ! I often tell people a dream is full of their own personal symbols interpreted in light of everything about themselves including 'intimate / inside ' knowledge ... how is someone else going to add that into the interpretive mix ? Tarot especially , I read publicly for years and did not use a 'prediction aspect' of it , I would look at and discuss the reading and if the person themselves felt to relate to anything in it to themselves , then we would talk about that . One classic example turns up here ... on the old now defunct Tarotfurum one person insisted ( and it caused rather a bother for some time - controversy ) that this card 6 of Cups 'happiness' - this persons interpretation ... obvious ! ; Child molesting ! ... everyone else was ... '' Its so obvious ; the evil little dwarf is offering the little girl some flowers , like they do ; flowers . sweets ... etc . and the man in the background is walking away allowing it to happen . '' Everyone was .... ummmmmm .... perhaps that is a highly personal interpretation from some personal experience ?'' No No she angrily insisted and went through all the parts of the image to back it up . people insisted it can not mean that . My contribution was ... well, it can ... for her ! In a reading I would give a general description ( that nearly all seem to agree on ) ; a ( badly drawn ) man offers the shorter woman some flowers - happiness . Now IF the querent starts saying .... that looks like a child molester (or whatever ) then that conversation can be had . The danger ( especially with a suggestively vulnerable querent ) is when crazies like that person do someone a reading ... the 6 of cups turns up and the reader goes ; '' OH-O ... its the child molesting card ! do you where your kids are that the moment ?'' Psycho analysis ? I spent about 4 hrs doing something like that with a fiend yesterday .. she has mammoth issues ( actually being a child abuse victim ) at one stage when she got cheeky and evasive and asked me what I was going 'to do about it ' ( jokingly ... it was a 'light ' session ) I said ''I am going to hammer the shit out of you with Socratic dialectic ! '' ''What's that ! ? '' '' I am going to keep asking you questions about what you say and your own answers are going to give you your own solutions . '' It probably should not be more than that . people who do not intend things lack a quantum leap of perennial healing . https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ That seems the consensus here .
  20. don't quite buy it

    All you people with problems ( like Apech oldbob and Coby ) have a problem because you point out other's problems .
  21. don't quite buy it

    Should she have ' turned the other cheek ' ? people that can not turn the other cheek , have fear of being called to explore the quantum matrix itself as an interface between transcendence and karma.
  22. don't quite buy it

    You would not have said that unless you have ...... ' fear of ....... psionic wave oscilations of quantum energy enobling the angelic inseprability of starfire . ( https://sebpearce.com/bullshit/ ) What lesson do I need to learn from this ? Come on man ... channel it !
  23. don't quite buy it

    I wonder what the 'cosmic lesson' is for people that do that ?
  24. don't quite buy it

    worse still is when some individual sets themselves up as such an adviser ... a sort of 'judgmental guru ' and also individuals adopting it to project out onto others ; 'would be Louise Hay's' ; to some unfortunate ; ''Oh, you stubbed your toe ? Why are you afraid of moving forward ? '' I want to shove their judgmental little faces in it ! I remember once , being in our amenities block , we were flooded in , I had a double middle ear infection - terrible and no medication . This New Age bitch walks in and asks what is wrong with me ( as I am obviously in a great deal of pain and hanging on to a sink to even be able to stand up ) I tell her , does she offer assistance , pain relief she might have at home ... any thing even remotely kind ? NO ; '' OH really ( and even in a smarmy , I am smart , look what I know about , voice ) ... what is it you dont want to hear then ?'' Me '' I will tell you what I dont want to hear , some inconsiderate new age, self appointed 'guru' scoring points on my pain and suffering so they can appear clever .' I read once where someone asked their Rabbi about this ; if an accident or sickness might carry a special message for you . The Rabbi said , of course it can , God works in all sorts of ways . The person protested a bit and explained some things , like I mentioned above . The Rabbi was ; '' Wait a minute , I didnt understand you , what I said was true but are you saying some people are interpreting the meaning and significance of these for others ? What ! That's outrageous ! How dare anyone try to interpret or give the meaning to someone else about God's particular and private dealings with them ! ' That is between you and God ! That isnt even the job of a Rabbi ! ''
