<br>
Wham! BAM!! The Queen said it. The Queen did it. So that's how it is.<br>
<br>

Realizing that all events in life (including the news, politics, religion, work, school, and friendships) can be related to the Queen of the day whether that is the Queen of Swords (a.k.a. Tessa Alvarado in the 2000-2001 US TV season), the Queen of Heaven, the Queen of England, the Queen of Fitness, or even the Queen's family.....this blog begins.IRamat2http://www.blogger.com/profile/06456998440891244758noreply@blogger.comBlogger63125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177803.post-4239542197443174022018-02-21T23:08:00.000-08:002018-02-21T23:35:32.774-08:00The Queen and everlasting lifeOnce again it has been quite some time since I last posted. Sorry for that my dear readers. My life has progressed as always. Annoying people on the internet continue, but as compared to 2004, I can control that through tools hat the internet has developed.

I spoke to the Archbishop of Santa Fe, Michael J, Sheehan, a few weeks ago and he told me that even if a person cannot remember beyond the current moment, they can and should go to confession with a priest if only to ask for the graces of a good confession.

I just looked at the stats for this site. The most readers come from Russia. They are followed closely by the United States, and then there is a tie between Germany and South Korea. I looked up Russian Queens. After I got past the music group QUEEN, the first entry was about Catherine, Queen of Russia. That is, Grand Duchess Catherine Pavlovna (Екатерина Павловна) of Russia.

Well that has not changed. Because of my blowup with my Mormon friend, I want to add that I am NOT Queen of Anti-Mormonism. (In fact, I do not see anything wrong with the faith. It is not for me, but that does not mean it is fine for another person and I will stand up for that person to the bitter end so he or she can be LDS if IRamat2http://www.blogger.com/profile/06456998440891244758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177803.post-78450327501590607202012-07-15T18:09:00.003-07:002014-07-27T08:00:03.263-07:00Magic and MysticismJust FYI, in my definition of mysticism, it does not refer to magic. Again that is because the literary version of magic is ritual without faith. Illusionists are hard working people who use the word "magic," but they are not doing anything mystical, they are doing a good job of distracting people in order to change something on stage.
Also, for me, the word "mystic" refers to a person not to a IRamat2http://www.blogger.com/profile/06456998440891244758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177803.post-85847939315835310032012-07-15T18:03:00.000-07:002014-07-27T07:59:11.385-07:00Harry Potter and Mormon MysticismI have been doing some studying and talking with another friend to try and figure out why my Mormon friend blew up at me recently when I mentioned as an example of mysticism that Joseph Smith was a mystic. You can read MY definition of the meaning of mystic in the previous post.

To continue following my line of thought with this post, you first have to assume that Christian Mysticism is real and not to be confused with Jewish Mysticism or mysticism in other religions such as Hindu mysticism. To follow my reasoing, you have to agree that a mystic really is somoene who encounters the Divine in a IRamat2http://www.blogger.com/profile/06456998440891244758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177803.post-35071617650572242572012-07-13T15:14:00.002-07:002012-07-13T15:14:20.658-07:00Avery's songThere is a new song about Avery available for download.

Sadly, she passed away one week after I discovered her. Her name is Avery Canahuati and today is the 6-month anniversary of her birth (she passed on April 20, 2012). Avery had Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) which causes one to lose all muscular function. In infants, it has also been known as Werdnig-Hoffman disease.

We know that Imelda Marcos, though not the Queen of the Philippines, had over a 100 pairs of shoes in her closet. The Queen of Swords was only supposed to wear one pair of high heeled boots, but anybody who paid attention to the show could see that the stunt doubles wore flat-soled boots for their scenes.

It looks like it would be good for those who want to receive the graces of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, but have great trouble recalling the recent past, including any sins committed.

Before the 19th century, Christians had a greater appreciation of God in nature. That is, pan-en-theism (God in nature) not pantheism (or nature as God).
