We’d like to show the side of the world you don’t normally see on television.

On A Wing & A Prayer

The Power of prayer

Prayer can mean different things to different people. Let’s break it down to its basic principles. If you are praying then you are usually asking for assistance (help me) or guidance (show me) with something. This is when you feel that you either don’t have the means or capability to help yourself or see the forest for the trees.



This also means that you are asking someone outside of yourself, whether it is God or angels or ancestors. Prayer doesn’t… Continue

Origin & Survival of a species

The natural world is filled with thousands and thousands of species of animals and creatures that do not care about what their purpose on our planet is. The simplest and most basic concept that every life-form IS concerned with is…



1. SURVIVAL

That is all that any living being, sentient or stupid, is driven by. Life as we know it – animal or human – revolves around that simple Neanderthal principle. Add any meaning to that existence and you’re thinking like a… Continue

What if this IS Reality: Part 3

Now that we have proven that we are real, physical, and in a physical environment, let’s look at what is not physical. No, not what isn’t real.



The Facts – Non-physical:



You make something “good/bad” by giving your opinion about it.



Yes, you really are thinking that this is crap.

I think, therefore I am. We would like to think that that phrase in some weird way sums it up.

OK. How about … what you think, is real to you. But, what others… Continue

What if this IS Reality: Part 2

The Facts – Physical:



Your body is real and what you experience is real.



Yes, you really are reading these words on the screen. Remember, assume nothing.

You can feel the chair under you, you can see the screen with your eyes, and I’m sure it’s got an ozone kind of smell to it. You can go as far as tasting it to prove the next sense that you have. You can even hear the words spoken as you carry on with the physical experience.

What if this IS Reality

PART 1: INTRODUCTION



For the purpose of this exercise, let’s, by some stretch of the imagination, take it that this is reality. Let’s forget about what everyone thinks and assumes. In fact, let’s assume nothing.

Let’s not assume that there is an alternate reality. Let’s deal with what is.

Let’s not assume that the dream world is reality. Let’s just dream our dreams.

Let’s not assume that there are other dimensions beyond our imagination. Hell, let’s not use our… Continue

What I believe…

“Beliefs” definition (Oxford):

1. the feeling that something is real and true, trust, confidence.

2. something accepted as true, what one believes.

3. religion, something taught as part of this, Christian beliefs.



Now look at definition 1. I want a big red marker underlining and circling and starring the word “feeling”.



Adding to the world’s conflicts:

If we could ask you to think of a religious (not spiritual) belief that has not caused… Continue
