I was reading the Catholic Register last month and of course China is again trying to control religion by appointing their own clergy. It doesn't work that way. "China has completed multiple unilateral appointments and the state continues to arrest clergy deemed loyal to Rome. ....No one can buy a Bible at a store. The crackdown is so severe that these purchases must be done in secret......In 2020, it was discovered that a text book used in Chinese schools, printed by the government- run University of Electronic Science and Technology Press, had Jesus stone a woman accused of adultery (John 8:3-11) instead of telling the crowd, ""He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone."" " Of course this isn't the only religion China wants to control. This is what Dictators do. They replace people in positions of power who are loyal to them only regardless of the lack of qualifications and they target the universities and every other democratic system. They try to control education. Since I am talking about education, I heard on the news that if international students are not allowed to return to Harvard, they can come here and complete their degrees at the University of Toronto. They will have Professors from both Harvard and U of T but their degree will be strictly Harvard. We cannot have imbeciles dictating to universities what can or cannot be taught. Students world wide have one mission and that is to learn and think logically. Of course that is a threat to the dictators. We live in dangerous times. We still have Putin trying to take over Ukraine and the President of Ukraine needs to succeed for all of us. Then we have the war in the Middle East. Hamas started this ugly and needless war and still refuses to release the hostages. In the mean time so many innocent people including children are suffering and dying. This needs to stop. There has to be a better way of getting each and every terrorist without killing so many innocent. We have free choice in democratic societies so be very careful whom you vote for in these days. There is obviously a pattern for dictators and if you are not mindful you will lose your freedom. Is that what any of us want. Well that is all for today. I have had a wonderful summer and I can't believe how much I have enjoyed my leisure time. Trying to sell my house has been a chore and my place is still staged and I miss my big tv. I even had a dream about my tv. My dream house in Niagara has had over 400 visitors and it should sell soon, so cross your fingers for me and or say a prayer so I can still have it. What do you think? I have so many plans.
