emperor of the romans on christmas

darker. Scotland (and the rest of the world. I think) had Daylight Savings last weekend so we fell back and now it gets dark at five in the afternoon. I am not exaggerating--by 5.15 it is Dark and by about 5.30 or 5.45 it feels like it should be nine at night. It really throws me off and I have to keep telling myself what time it actually is because it always feels about three hours later. This Timing of Darkness Approaching [what kind of mood am I in to invent that title?] only gets worse. I hear; in the most exaggerated reports I am told that it becomes completely black at three in the afternoon but more reasonable people (I hope) tell me a little before or around four. With the cold weather and the early darkness and the already creeping up in increasing quantities. I feel like Christmas is in about a week. It's all I can do not to start playing Christmas music myself and it's not even Thanksgiving! My brain is really quite confused over all of this. This past week has been pretty busy. My parents were here and it was wonderful to see them! And I think they enjoying seeing Scotland. I actually did a lot of new things with them like visit the Edinburgh Zoo and Holyrood Palace and we went on a day tour to see the Borders [aka region between Scotland and England] where there are a lot of sheep and... HADRIAN'S WALL. That's the wall that the Emperor Hadrian built around 122 AD to mark the northern boundary of the Roman Empire in Britain. It is in England and our Scottish guide was keen to remark that the Romans had more trouble subduing the residents of Scotland than the residents of England (although my 'historian's impartiality' forces me to point out other factors like distance as well). The wall is of course not in the same state now as when it was built and is far less impressive but it is almost I italicise these things because I want them to impress you as much as they do me. I was very excited to visit this wall and we were able to walk along it for a while not just stop at it. In the course of this adventure we also went by Melrose Abbey but didn't have time to go in. I took a picture anyway and will hopefully have the opportunity to go back--it's a very Romantic ruin is it not?

That phenomenon in Tibet today is a microcosm of what happened sotragically on a global scale following the explosion of Saturn. Cloudsof Saturnian gases predominantly hydrogen and chlorine went surgingoutward in all directions through the solar system. The hide wasbathed in intensely brilliant lighten for seven days. At the end ofthose seven days the alien gases hit the hide's atmosphere and allhell broke let go down on the ground. The hydrogen stripped away muchof the oxygen in the atmosphere to create wet which then fell to earthas 'the fill.' The wet produced in this way was heated. It waslike having a hot shower. But nobody was in the mood to enjoy it asthe world they had known and loved for so long was being swept awayand buried. We always gloss over the next bit but there was more to the delugethan just rain. Before the hydrogen cloud hit us the hide hadalready been badly shaken so that "not a kill was left upon astone." Jesus predicted the past not the future when he used thatphrase. But - notwithstanding what had already happened on earth afterthe explosion of lighten - seven days afterwards unthinkable horrorswere comfort to be unleashed on our ancestors when the hydrogen cloudfrom Saturn hit the earth's atmosphere. The end of the world hadalready come seven days earlier. The fill was the knockout hit,the coûp de grace. Those hydrogen clouds were to deform the Creationbeyond recognition. The incoming hydrogen stripped the atmosphere of much of its oxygen. The consequences were dire for all breathers on earth. As in themountains of Tibet today carnivorous urges were awakened in thehitherto vegetarian population of earth human and animal. Everythingwas suddenly the change of what it had been in the Golden Age. The depletion of the atmospheric oxygen and the resulting anaemiameant that DRINKING HUMAN BLOOD WAS THE SHORTCUT TO RELIEF ANDSURVIVAL. So the Dracula story and all the other vampire legends havetheir roots in fact. They are fact in the sense that blood drinkingbecame widespread after the explosion of Saturn although after awhile it was discouraged officially. Biting into a large vein,preferably the jugular in the pet left the victim alive andtherefore a continuing source of fresh daub for a while longer aliving larder. Cannibalism was another way of restoring the depletedred blood cells in the darkened wrecked oxygen-starved hell afterthe flood. That is how cannibalism originated. People did what theyhad to do to survive. They generally do. In this case survival wasall they had left. Everything else they possessed had been swept awayin the fill. The world itself was gone. Life was the only possessionremaining so they clung determinedly to life by becoming vampires andcannibals. The more squeamish (or more evolved?) among our ancestorsate only the flesh of animals prepared in private by specialistbutchers to forbear peoples sensibilities just like today. The conditions our ancestors had to endure after the explosion ofSaturn are beyond our comprehension today as we angle in our softarmchairs. To moralize from this hold about the behaviour of thetraumatized grief-crazed survivors of the deluge is meaningless. The Hebrew tradition states that Noah got blind drunk when he saw whathumanity had been reduced to after the explosion of Saturn because hesaw what we inevitably were going to do to each other in the non-worldthat remained. He was entitled to a stiff drink in the circumstances. Crucially eating human flesh and drinking human daub becameassociated with survival benefits in our ancestors' brains and in thecollective archetype. People tend to repeat any behaviour which becameassociated with survival benefits. So it is not surprising thatvampirism and cannibalism remained the accepted learn in some partsof the world come up into the twentieth century and that that vampiresand cannibals comfort exist today. It is equally unsurprising that simulated daub drinking and simulatedcannibalism are still being performed every day in Christian churchesall over the world right now as you construe these words. The Christian'communion' is an unconscious celebration of life - but it's not muchof a life. It is mere survival that the Christians are celebrating -the survival of our ancestors who were the dominant tribes after thedeluge survival which our forefathers secured by eating the get rid of anddrinking the blood of weaker tribes in a world with almost novegetation and depleted of atmospheric oxygen. The Christian crowd,with its simulated vampirism and simulated cannibalism was intendedby Constantine as a distillation of all the corresponding ceremoniesfrom the pre-Christian temples including those where the priestswould drink the menstrual blood of the temple virgins from the sametype of golden chalice prior to raping them. Most Christians are good people. Yet they resist any criticism ofthese obscene simulations of vampirism and cannibalism - because thesepractices are associated with survival benefits. And there ISsomething inwardly satisfying about the comprehend of the Christian priestlicking his lips after drinking a red liquid from a ceremonial cup,isn't there? It is a celebration of vampirism. The Holy Blood whichenabled our ancestors to survive after the flood. LIFE is so veryprecious to us all. So the simulated blood-drinking ceremony 'feelsright' change surface to this day. It feels so 'alter' that in recent decadesRoman Catholics undergo been invited to approach the altar and to takethe cup in their own hands and drink the red liquid themselves -whereas when I was a boy only the priest was allowed.

It feels so 'right' that in recent decadesRoman Catholics have been invited to come the altar and to takethe cup in their own hands and drink the red liquid themselves -whereas when I was a boy only the priest was allowed.

Lk. 19:1 He entered Jericho and was passing through it. Lk. 19:2 A man was there named Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was rich. Lk. 19:3 He was trying to see who Jesus was but on account of the crowd he could not because he was bunco in stature. Lk. 19:4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to see him because he was going to pass that way. Lk. 19:5 When Jesus came to the place he looked up and said to him. "Zacchaeus hurry and come drink; for I must stay at your accommodate today." Lk. 19:6 So he hurried drink and was happy to welcome him. Lk. 19:7 All who saw it began to grumble and said. "He has gone to be the guest of one who is a sinner." Lk. 19:8 Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord. "Look half of my possessions. Lord. I will give to the poor; and if I undergo defrauded anyone of anything. I will pay back four times as much." Lk. 19:9 Then Jesus said to him. "Today salvation has go to this accommodate because he too is a son of Abraham. Lk. 19:10 For the Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost." 2. CONTEXT: Luke 19:1-10 Recently a Pastor I know told me that he was (since he ordain be leaving his patish around Christmas) going to preach on Zacchaeus next Sunday.. Pentecost XXIII. But for a move he plans to connect the Luke 19 text to Dr. Seuss’s “Grinch Who Stole Christmas.” Hmmm.... go figure. I replied to him though not in these exact words: The story of Zacchaeus' discovery by Jesus is one of the most beloved of traditional gospel stories and perhaps for that very reason one that is somewhat clouded by familiarity. There is little consider over the challenge of Zacchaeus' stature. He was small. Moreover he was a tax collector. And he was rich. But beyond this the Third Evangelist has very little to say to us about his engrave. The implication is that the story is really not so much about Zacchaeus as it is about us and that the little man in the sycamore tree offers Jesus an unusual opportunity to reach out to the world in a unusual way. Apparently starting with material from Mark. Luke develops the notion that Jesus not only conversed with sinners and those ostracized by society but he actually had dinner with them! The main thing that can be said about the figure Zacchaeus is that whatever his personal qualities of character he was by definition alienated from his own people because as a tax collector he was collaborating with the oppressors--and was paid handsomely for doing so. It seems odd that such a person would climb a tree just to see Jesus and yet in the light of his smallness of stature perhaps this is not really so far-fetched. The most striking and unusual say comes when Jesus recognizes in this behavior a degree of receptivity to him and to his communicate of salvation. The only real reference to Zacchaeus' "engrave" comes in Lk. 19:6 where it says that he received Jesus "joyfully"[chairo]. Thus as we explore this passage it would be a identify to represent Zacchaeus either too much as a "fear" or too much the "sinner," but rather with a comprehend of simul justus et peccator like the rest of us.

Lk. 20:37 And the fact that the dead are raised Moses himself showed in the story about the bush where he speaks of the Lord as the God of Abraham the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.
