WORD-UP:
Thought For Today!
A Car or any other road worthy Vehicle is not so, without an ENGINE.
And an Engine that does not work as it should, is USELESS to the Car or Vehicle.
Therefore, a Car or any vehicle cannot be so identified, if it does not have an engine that works!
Without an ENGINE, that vehicle is just another piece of scrap metal.

What is Sufism?
Definition:
A Sufi is one who is a Lover Of Truth:
Therefore, in Sufism it is said that, "Those who are inclined towards the hereafter, cannot pay attention to the material world."
Likewise, those who are involved in the material world, cannot concern themselves with the hereafter.
But the Sufi, (because of Love' s jealousy), is unable to attend to either of these worlds."
And one who dies for the Love Of The Truth, dies a Sufi."
NOTE:
It is also said that SUFISM is the Philosophical or Ideological interpretation of Islam.

* Now in South Africa today, youths ride the roof of fast moving trains, dodging high voltage lines overhead, (hundreds have already died from shock, and other injuries sustained therefrom):

Brother Against Brother!
When the US invaded Iraq & Afghanistan, the Sunni sect of Islam was in danger of losing their privileged place in the internal politics in those countries. In Afghanistan it was the 'Pashtunes,' and in Iraq it was the Sunnis' under Saddam.
So now that the Shia majority has won more seats in the Iraqi Parliament, and is now the ruling majority sect in that country, much to the dis-appointment of the US administration in the White House.
The same could be said of Fatah & Hamas. Hamas is viewed a terrorist by the US & her allies. And Fatah is viewed as more moderate, and easier to manipulate.
So now that Fatah & Hamas elements are killing each other for power, this undermines the influence that the US and her allies could weave, under these circumstances.

*And The Hamas Party is the sole authority in the West of Gaza.

Could Pedophiles Be Cured?
In this culture (The USA), sexual intercourse with someone at age 16 years or younger, is punisherable under the law. In other cultures the age of a minor is sometimes 13-14-12- or even 11.
So if we confine our discourse to the USA's concept of a minor, then we would have to say that anyone with such desires (sexually), would have to restrain himself or herself from acting on those desires.
But restraint will not remove the desire for Older or Younger men or women sexually either! So by and large, society determines the age group, that is deemed mature enough for consensual sexual intercourse!

The Puerto Rican Day Parade Had 208 Arrests!
Yes, this year the Police arrested 208 participants or onlookers, at the above parade. This seem to be the usual trend in most mass parades in new York City.
What these individuals from every culture must realize, is that these parades are a reflection of the culture of the said region or country that these participants come from.
So when situations like this happens, it reflects BADLY upon those cultures or countries, that wanted to advertise or sell their cultural values via these parades.
So let us REMEMBER always, to be mindful of our conduct in public, and at these public parades or events.

Pakistani Cricket Coach Died From Natural Causes!
WORD-UP:
The BBC announced today that the Pakistani Cricket Coach that was assumed murdered via strangulation in his hotel room in Jamaica, was now contradicted by Scotland Yard's forensics.
It was found viz Xray scanning of the collar or neck bone, that the deceased was never strangled, because the bone was intact and has no signs of breakage. Thus ruling out the previous allegation of murder by strangulation, by the Jamaican Police authorities prior to this investigation.
It is now assumed that the cricket coach probably died from a heart attack, triggered from his diabetes!

The US Three Branches Of Government Seem To Have Lost The Original Intent!
WORD-UP:
Under the George W. Bush administration the three branches of the US government was made irrelevant. For example:
* George W. Bush was able to get his National Security people to wiretap telephones without the legislated procedure for a Court Order:
* His administration was able to appoint an Attorney General who was able to create A national Security Bill, that literally infringes upon all Americans' Civil Liberties/Civil Rights of The Freedom Of Information Act, Communication, and Confidentiality, with impunity:
* His appointed US Attorney General (Gonsales), was also able to manipulate and dismiss Federal Attorneys under some technicality, with a political intent behind that decision:
* The G W. Bush administration was also able to extricate foreign nationals under the guise of suspected terrorists, and bring them to the US facility at Gyantanamo Bay. Therein, hold these suspects for years, without giving them the right to consult with an attorney:
* George W. Bush was able to persuade, coerce, and fool the US House & Senate at making the case for war with Afghanistan and Iraq, with circumstantial, or little or no evidence to substantiate some nuclear or mass terrorist threat to the US and her allies:
In fact, George W. Bush was the first president to assume total dictatorship of the political administration in Washington DC, with the full co-operation of both houses and the American people.

Bacteria & Dormant Viruses Within The Human Body:
WORD-UP:
Do you know that the human body has certain bacteria that lies dormant. These bacteria can kill the host, if the climate external to the body becomes just right, to trigger that reaction.
Then, the bacteria becomes an internal killer immediately, to the body hosting it.
Our bodies have those viruses or bacteria:
* Remember HIV that causes AIDS:
* Remember EBOLA:
* Remember the FLU that killed millions during the first world War period:
Rest assured, that if our current climatic changes continue in the same pace, such bacteria or internal human viruses will eventually become our worst enemy from within us all:

WORD-UP:
I feel that religion has been the source of all mis-understanding about behavior, beliefs, sexuality, gender differences, attraction, and sexual preferences.
WHY?
Because ever since the birth of established or institutional religions, the promoters of those religious beliefs and doctrines, have used it to arbitrarily coerce, dictate, moralize, and legislate human behavior in all its' facets.

This group of hypocrites (The G-8 Summit), has made promises before, but has never really fezzed-up to any of them. Most claim because of States internal economic changes and realities, may have influenced their priorities.
However, George W. Bush & Tony Blair, will soon be out of office, and all those promises may never see fruition!
