Time to embrace humanity

Human beings have never ever created anything but thoughts, dreams and illusions. Everything that history has shown in terms of human achievement has been discoveries or inventions, but on both cases using what God has created beforehand for our common good.

The merit of science and arts is not in how far we keep ourselves from our creator but on how close we are to Him. Science is not in dispute with reason and it is not a rejection of faith because science is the pursuing of knowledge, of answers to the unknown and therefore scientific research and study cannot stop before unfounded conclusions. Art in a similar way is not a display of arrogance or pride but of use of the gifts God has generously provided each and every one of us with His infinite love. Sciences and arts are therefore as close to God as we are and our achievements must be oriented towards common good and social justice, the former by the use of our knowledge, gifts and virtues to benefit our neighbor and the latter by preventing advantageous unfairness and the exploitation of our neighbor.
The world can hardly be changed because to alter it we would have to impose our own perception of common good destroying freedom and love and with them the absolute truth, separating us from our relationship with God.
We can change ourselves individually, reconciling our relationship with God by following the truth and love as taught by Jesus and the guidelines of His church, the body of Christ and the Holy Spirit, by embracing the holy Sacraments and following the Commandments of the Lord.
We can save our lives by opening our hearts to God, who loves us, individually and in our complete dignity, reserving one identity for each and every one of us. He has created humans to live in social gatherings and therefore common good is a main objective but from the individual and not from society. Social justice as the manifestation of common good can only depart from the individual.
Our lives have been invaded by a path to hell full of good intentions but imposing upon us forsaking God as the main condition to our existence, as if nothing would be for us after this life.
It’s important to observe how the agents of evil conspire persistently the same methodology of picking up on any weak theory or postulate and making it a law of deception a truth, relative to the convenience of the purpose negating reality as it is and creation altogether.
We can appreciate this today and throughout history, with the panic proposed by the theory of global warming or global economy or financial crisis or by loose statements like the theory of evolution and even the theory of relativity.
Humanity is persistently being challenged not by faith but by the obscurity of the absurd implanted by he forces of evil constantly proposing, as scientific achievement or artistic expression the negation of our own humanity and with it the negation of God, the Holy Trinity, Jesus, Virgin Mary, Saints, angels and even the miracles that have shown us the power of the divinity of God.
Let’s embrace humanity and reject all sort propositions obstructing our path to salvation of serving God before men and women.

When God is offended, should we become violent?

Our God is all love and truth, who asks from us humility and forgiveness. Our God is the only living God. He has the word of eternal life. Observing the process of the current protests in the Middle East and many other places in the world by the so called followers of Islam, presumably outraged because they do not like what is being presented in a film about their prophet; it is interesting to distinguish that factual truth, about what is missing in the whole staging of these protests and it is precisely, truth, love, humility and forgiveness and it is not precisely from the ignorant mobs perpetrating the assaults under the direction of their evil leaders, but from the ones supposedly protecting the basic and fundamental freedoms we all in the western civilization which is founded in Christianity, have for granted.

Common Good

It is often found commentaries that describe common good as extremes of anarchy, as expressions that on one end present a justification for system interference and on the other as an idea of omnipotence over the people who is typically labeled as mediocre and incapable of deciding on their own about their matters and circumstances. However, common good is divine a mandate we all have as individuals; to aim for and to work towards. It is what defines the relationship between science and reason, because a science where its object is to benefit only the self or to enhance the egos of the recipients is what defies reason and so it segregates itself from faith which is what make us creatures of God with dignity, identity and individuality because care exists for our neighbor and peer. Common good cannot be taking or confiscating from some to give to others or to pretend that by robbing from the ones that have to presumably give to the have not, the issue is fairly addressed. On the contra...

He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do

Gospel text ( Jn  6,1-15) :  Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, near Tiberias, and large crowds followed him because of the miraculous signs they saw when He healed the sick. So He went up into the hills and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. Then lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw the crowds that were coming to him and said to Philip, «Where shall we buy bread so that these people may  eat ?». He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do. Philip answered him, «Two hundred  silver coins would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a piece». Then one of Jesus' disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said, «There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?». Jesus said, «Make the people sit down». There was plenty of grass there so the people, about five thousand men, sat down to rest. Jesus then took the loaves, ga...
