    Churchill and Zelensky

    Churchill hated Hitler, Zelensky hates Putin. While Churchill hated Hitler long before he became Prime minister of the UK, Zelensky first tried to get a deal with Putin, but Putin did not want a deal, and the war escalated. When Hitler had won the war in France 1940, he made a peace offer to...

    The coming world dictator?

    This morning (CET) I did something I almost never do: I looked whether a man's name adds up to 666. Since the name of Jesus adds up to 888 in ancient Greek (medieval and modern Greek: 694, due to a rather insignificant change of letters), I am convinced that we should do such computation (Rev...

    South Korean decoration

    I got one, as I described in a post in the secular section. And I need advice whether it is better to give it back. The other post is primarily to get more information and advice from persons with more knowledge about South Korean politics, this post is primarily to get spiritual guidance in...

    South Korea coup - call for advice

    About 13 months ago, I got a letter of thanks and a small decoration, from the South Korean ministry of Unification, for attending a regular protest before the North Korean embassy in Berlin (every regular attendant got one). The letter was signed by the minister of unification. That minister...

    Bonhoeffer movie

    I came across over that theme by a news on German TV. And Wikipedia confirms that there is a movie about Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and this movie seems to distort what Bonhoeffer said and did. While the theological position of Bonhoeffer is complex (see the critical view, which (over-?) emphasizes...

    Abortion in USA - View from the outside

    I want to share some thoughts I got when viewing the discussion about the annulment of "Roe vs. Wade", and what I could hear in German media about the midterm elections battle. The general impression is: The debate about abortion ("pro life" / "pro choice") is much more heated in the US than in...

    All is new …

    I suppose I will be acquainted to the new design in a time (long or short?). But when I saw a long list of news at the top of the list, I read some them, thought: I've read them all, so I clicked off all them as read, until only the message »we have upgraded …« was left. Maybe I missed some news?

    50 Holocausts

    Uproar after Mahmoud Abbas in Berlin accuses Israel of ’50 Holocausts’ | Mahmoud Abbas – News Monkey 50 holocausts - well, you cannot kill fifty times one third of a people, you can do this only three times (or, with some imprecision, perhaps four times, but definitely not more). So "50...

    Healing?

    Joe Biden promised to heal the country, to be president of all Americans. But when I hear what he did after he became president, it seems he only served the interests of his voters. But since I am a foreigner who looks from the outside (Germany), I may have missed something. So my question is...

    Seaching for Cowper: My country, Lord

    There is a song by Danny Plett, a Canadian singer who lives in Germany. First I only new the German version, then found out it is a translation from English, and that part of the text stem from William Cowper. According to the sheet which contained the information, The first, second, and fourth...

    Astonishing

    This does not fit into any category here, I try to put it in a place where the mis-fit is minimal. I watched the inauguration today, and there was a prayer from the pastor of Kamala Harris. It ended with the word "... in the mighty name of our common faith. Amen." Now I'm familiar with the...

    An interesting list

    Look at this characterization of a personality: inappropritate self-esteem the wish to climb the social ladder at any cost disdain of people with lower status over-assessment of one*s wealth desire for success and respect ready to take revenge on persons or a system deprives him the opportunity...

    China won, USA lost

    The USA tried to make a free trade agreement with the Asian-Pacific region. Then came Trump, and according to his "America first" strategy, his plan ended in the waste-basket. If you compare countries to individuals, that (and the whole "America first" policy) meant the USA got egoistic. And...

    Suppose the election has been "stolen" ...

    I don't believe there was systematic fraud in the election, but, just for the sake of arguments, let us suppose there was fraud, and in reality Trump has won. What can we conclude from that? The fraud has not be done by the Democrats. If they had committed anything like that, they would also...

    Election fraud (attempt) seen in action

    Weeks ago, I posted that, since only one person (Trump) knows how there could be fraud in the election, Trump will be the only one who may commit fraud. Now we see how this fraud should be done: In one speech, Trump says (correctly, as even CNN says) that while Biden leads in Arizona, the...

    Another view at Kenosha

    I only saw videos in German media, so maybe someone with more information may correct me. I see a man (Blake) going to his car, followed by a policeman with a gun. I assume that the policemen did not force him to do so, so it looks that he stubbornly goes to his car, open the door, bows down...

    Trump supported by German Left

    Speakers of the German Party Die Linke ("The Left"), a party with historical roots in the ruling party of East Germany (SED), support the idea of reducing US troops in Germany. Some express the wish that not only a part, but all US troops should leave Germany, one spokeswoman said it would be...

    Does Trump plan a coud d'etat?

    Disturbing news from America in German TV. Protests against police brutality (esp. targeted at colored people), some peaceful, others rather riots and plundering - and a president who does not calm the feelings, but rather heats up the situation (at least according German TV). And he threatens...

    I stand all amazed

    I hope this is the right place to ask this question: After trying to sing the song named in the title, with both of us not sure about the melody, I went to youtube to find a video which helps to teach that song. I was embarassed that many (the majority in my search results) are linked to...
