Cardinal Pell had created the Melbourne Response into institutionalised pedophilia in the '90s in Australia. It was a world first, but hamstrung by laws of the day, giving victims compensation without forcing them to trial. There was a backlash and a party which had included many who were known pedophiles and had deep bureaucratic connections had had Pell face decades of litigation which over time crept to accuse Pell of being a pedophile, and had him jailed on a false pretext for over a year. He had been convicted by the Victorian high court after the chief justice took the case saying they would be impartial, but they weren't. In the mean time, Pell had been 3rd in power within the Catholic church and had restructured church finances world wide to root out corruption. Recently, senior church members who allegedly leaked against Pell are facing charges of embezzlement. I see no evidence Catholicism is more prone to pedophilia than elsewhere, and I know there are tragic examples. But a deep state issue within Catholicism has seemed to be in the mix and on both sides, Catholics are standing up. Tony Abbott was the first conservative Catholic in Australia (It could be argued Joseph Lyons was Catholic too, but the UAP founder had been ALP first). Malcolm Turnbull is catholic too. Deep state division within Catholicism dates over a thousand years. It is not solely responsible for US deep state issues, but it does seem a contributor.
There used to be a 13th month. It spawned the idea of a blue moon which happens once a year. Robert Graves interpreted artwork from pre literacy Greece found that woman were the initial leaders of the Greeks, and they had three powerful gods, Hera, Aphrodite and Athena. They were a kind of trinity, where Hera, cow eyed, was the older who saw wrongs when others didn't realise she was watching. Aphrodite was a mature, desirable woman. Pallas Athene was the child goddess, whose wisdom was like a sharp pre teen girl. Over time, Queens would adopt a king for a year. At the end of the year, the blue moon, the king would be sacrificed and his blood and bones would be fertiliser. Later still, prisoners might be sacrificed for the king.
The thirteenth month has disappeared from our calendar but still exists as a blue moon, sometimes defined as the month of the year with two moons.
The Code of Hammurabi left off the number 13 for reasons now unknown.
Apollo 13 came too late to be foundational, but my, it was inspiring.
The knights Templar were screwed before French King Philip stole their assets by accusing them of heresies and then torturing them to confess, beginning Friday 13th. They had lost everything when Jerusalem fell after 150 years when the language spoken there had been French. Jerusalem fell after Jerusalem's king's daughter was kidnapped, and so the king the left the safety of a fortress and was slaughtered in battle. The Knights Templar had the timeless duty of guarding Jerusalem and her antiquities. The Holy Grail legend may have been resurrected to impugn the Knights? I feel the knights were victims of a deep state within Christianity. Part of the chaff masquerading as wheat.

Each person should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.
Were you a slave when you were called? Don’t let it trouble you—although if you can gain your freedom, do so. For the one who was a slave when called to faith in the Lord is the Lord’s freed person; similarly, the one who was free when called is Christ’s slave. You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings. Brothers and sisters, each person, as responsible to God, should remain in the situation they were in when God called them.
Concerning the Unmarried
Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is. Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a commitment? Do not look for a wife. But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this.
What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.
I would like you to be free from concern. An unmarried man is concerned about the Lord’s affairs—how he can please the Lord. But a married man is concerned about the affairs of this world—how he can please his wife— and his interests are divided. An unmarried woman or virgin is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: Her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit. But a married woman is concerned about the affairs of this world—how she can please her husband. I am saying this for your own good, not to restrict you, but that you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord.
If anyone is worried that he might not be acting honorably toward the virgin he is engaged to, and if his passions are too strong and he feels he ought to marry, he should do as he wants. He is not sinning. They should get married. But the man who has settled the matter in his own mind, who is under no compulsion but has control over his own will, and who has made up his mind not to marry the virgin—this man also does the right thing. So then, he who marries the virgin does right, but he who does not marry her does better.
A woman is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to marry anyone she wishes, but he must belong to the Lord. In my judgment, she is happier if she stays as she is—and I think that I too have the Spirit of God.

From my article on Quora
What do teachers and professors just "get" that other people don't?
To achieve in academia and ‘know’ things is not a process of thinking differently, although I know gifted individuals who do have a different process. Often, achieving in academia does not require being smart either, but persistent.
There are lots of ways of learning, but consider instead why someone does not learn. There are many distractions and many things people would rather do than look at something that is already known. In order to achieve study, one needs to sacrifice some of those things. If one is privileged they need to give up their toys. If one is underprivileged, they need to overcome their adversity.
Many people achieve well in academia, we are better now at delivering knowledge than we have ever been in history. But note, hand writing is declining. Old skills are declining as new ones are engaged. Forty years ago an office secretary would have shorthand, typing skills and filing knowledge. Nowadays an office secretary uses a word processor, spreadsheet, archiving data and responds to network email and chat. A street sweeper of forty years ago is gone, with janitorial needs done by fewer people employing automated service. Executives are more pervasive in activity.
Forty years ago, office ladies working in NSW schools had pupil record cards that tracked students of the school and were never seen except by review if something unusual happened (Student disappeared, was killed, committed a crime etc) A left wing government concerned with perception objected to boys cards being blue and girls cards being pink. So a government regulation went out that all pupil record cards would be white. But the ladies needed the colour cues to find cards quickly. They decided, in some circumstances, to put a coloured sticker on each card. Pink for girls and blue for boys. Today, the records are digital and gender is included. The illustration highlights the changing demands of academic needs of office ladies in schools.
A math teacher may be able to do sums and solve problems at speed with which students are surprised. It is because of experience and does not mean the student is slow. It takes time to digest academic food.
= =A daily column on what the ALP have as a policy, supported by a local member, and how it has 'helped' the local community. I'll stop if I cannot identify a policy. Feel free to make suggestions. Contact me on FB, not twitter. I have twitter, but never look at it.
Gabrielle Williams was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Carers and Volunteers, working with the Minister for Housing, Disability and Ageing and the Minister for Families and Children. Williams was given those titles when elected in 2014. It is difficult to find what value she has been to Dandenong, but clearly the ALP see her as the future. It takes about three to three and a half hours to catch a bus from Dandenong to the airport. By way of contrast, it takes an hour in the air to fly to Sydney. Dan Andrews has explicitly resisted improving the travel time. When the federal government offered an infrastructure spend, Dan Andrews opted to have a train journey which will probably be broken. It is almost as if Andrews hates the people of Melbourne. Does Williams feel the same?
For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
Old socialist Joe Biden, who has contributed nothing worthwhile to either of Obama's administrations is looking like being the idiot to campaign for Democrats. Hillary is failing fast, sinking on her own record. But the talent pool for US Democrats is very shallow.
The ABC is campaigning against Australia and cultural assets. The despicable Gosford Anglican got an enormous soap box on 7:30 report, which gushingly assured viewers that it was an ordinary Christian Church. It is a small church with an insular community that at any instance does not declare that it is dedicated to serving God. They worship fads that are strongly left wing political. For them , the issue is not border protection or saving lives from being drowned or dedicated to paying pirates, instead their issue is equity and they favour drowning poor people to achieve it. Or they favour taxation and wealth redistribution, if the ALP do it. Or they favour changing the Australian constitution to reflect privileges for race. The God I know and serve is not the same. I am not an authority, but the one I serve is different. The 7:30 report also gleefully declared a '$7 copayment for visiting a doctor,' dead. How about the copayments for public transport? University? School? Roads? Chanel 9 has entered the culture wars in defence of a dog, Hugo, slated for destruction after it's owner allowed it to walk the neighbourhood unleashed. It is a Pit Bull cross and quite ugly. If they really loved their dog, they would treat it better, not exploit it's life for media exposure.

1 Blessed are those whose ways are blameless,
who walk according to the law of the LORD.
2 Blessed are those who keep his statutes
and seek him with all their heart-
3 they do no wrong
but follow his ways.
4 You have laid down precepts
that are to be fully obeyed.
5 Oh, that my ways were steadfast
in obeying your decrees!
6 Then I would not be put to shame
when I consider all your commands.

as I learn your righteous laws.
8 I will obey your decrees;
do not utterly forsake me....

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.
Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?
January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)
