The residential school system in Canada was arrogance of the most destructive kind. To believe that one culture, one system of beliefs, is greater than another and thereby attempt to assimilate one into the other is the epitome of hubris. The Greatest Love does not care what you believe so long as you act with … Continue reading Canada and the Treatment of Indigenous Peoples →

By first contact I mean the ability to communicate with a planet that has intelligent life. By intelligent life I mean life that is capable of establishing bidirectional communication with our World using some form of technology compatible with ours. It does not mean visiting that planet which could only happen much later. Bidirectional communications … Continue reading First Contact →

I believe that before we can reach for distant stars we must learn to love our World and each other. We must feel comfortable giving up our weapons of violence and mass destruction. Tearing down the walls that divide great nations and building up the love such nations so richly deserve to share. Only when … Continue reading Distant Stars →

In a later post I speak about how the act of reducing pain and suffering allows us to deepen and broaden our compassion and empathy. It is a primary means by which we reveal and evolve our love. But pain and suffering is not restricted to the human race. In terms of sheer numbers of … Continue reading Animal Rights →

I believe capital punishment is an aberration of love. Not only is life sacred but I believe the example of the heavens is clear: judgements that promote the betterment of all souls, even the most heinous, elevate our society and place it on a clearer path toward a higher love.

Suicide is not an aberration of love. Such a complex condition cannot be so easily labelled. I have contemplated suicide twice in my life. On the first occasion it was the love of The Greatest Love and the first message that saved me. And another time while experiencing a major depression after my second hospital … Continue reading Suicide →

When the pain and suffering becomes unbearable and medical professionals agree that no more can be done, I believe, the next steps require love. For love is more important than life itself and The Greatest Love does not expect us to cling to life at all costs. Love. Love of the patient in consultation with … Continue reading Euthanasia →

There is no consensus on when human life begins, despite numerous claims to the contrary. Scientific opinion differs with many scientists refusing to even enter the debate. I believe the question of what constitutes human life is more than our DNA. More than how many cells the developing being consists of. More than the stage … Continue reading Abortion and The Sixth Message →

I believe human life is sacred. And I believe The Greatest Love has delivered me a message that human love is also sacred. So when love conflicts with life how should we act? The question is pertinent to such issues as abortion and euthanasia which will be discussed later in this blog. In the interim … Continue reading Love or Life →
