Cyrus, the Great prophesied as the bird of prey coming from the east summoned by God had been the subject of ironies. At least two cult leaders from the far east, Felix Manalo of the Philippines and Sun Myung Moon of Korea used the same bible passage in claiming they are the raptors anointed and summoned by God for a great purpose. This would only prove that even in death, Cyrus still causes a stir even as when he was still alive.

One of the most modern prevalent crimes would be identity theft. For instance, one would not know that his identity is being used for a crime that would need such identity in an authorized registry such as one being done by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) intended to legitimize something bogus. Hence, investigators noted that common people such as vendors are made corporate stockholders by criminals operating the POGO for money laundering even without their knowledge. But of course, there are some who do these things deliberately by portraying themselves as real Filipinos and legitimate businessmen in spite of the fact that they are assuming another identity by using falsified documents. But one can be so wrong in assuming that this is a modern crime.

Sumerian and Akkadian account of the hero Gilgamesh, is an epic poem of antiquity concerning the King of Uruk (not to be confused with Abraham’s Ur) culled from clay tablets from the library of Ashurbanipal (669-631 BC), the last king of the Assyrian empire. He is the son of an anunnaki (nephelim) and a human who is characterized as a mighty giant. As king, he had this lusty vice of taking the bride for himself on the day of the wedding and none of his subjects could stop him.

The recent arrest of Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy made a lot of allegations moot and academic as many of the claims of violations of human rights rested on the premise that he was no longer in the KOJC Compound.

As early as the Greek civilization in the west and the Chinese civilization in the east, the value of military training and education had been emphasized. In the earliest Peloponnesian war, Athens recognized the dominance of Sparta in military conflict because of its military readiness and caught up with the warlike city-state. Even in the Sino classic The Art of War, there is an account of court ladies being beheaded because they did not take military training seriously despite the protests of the emperor to which they belong.

When men have mutual respect for one another, they practice an honorable and virtuous behavior wherein they treat each other as equals. And for the fairer sex, the female, they show utmost respect wherein the ladies feel protected and valued. This manifest behavior is what is expected of cavaliers, the gentry, or in the native parlance, the maginoo.

Whether they would like him to go to oblivion or keep his name as a real challenge, the Medjugorje apparitions story may never be complete without the mention of the former priest, Tomislav Vlasic, who voluntarily like Judas took it upon himself to take care of the seers there.

Cabra Island in Lubang, Mindoro Occidental is small island which used to have a functional lighthouse for seafarers. With a length of 4.5 kms. (2.8 miles) and 2.9 kms. (1.8 miles) in its longest and widest sides. The lighthouse was built 600 meters from the sea from the western side of the island by the Spaniards in 1885 and is no longer functioning even during the time of the apparitions in 1966. The Spaniards named it Cabra because they saw a herd of goats there but during the time of the apparitions the island being small is also called by the visitors Cabra islet. The Cabra islet actually is a smaller island close to the island which some natives call Cabra also because it has the shape of a goat.

The reason why our great heroes used propaganda was because during that time although education was already well-established in the islands, we were still not free. Hence, Marcelo H. del Pilar, Graciano Lopez Jaena and even Jose P. Rizal pushed for the great propaganda movement through La Solidaridad. With propaganda people in Europe, more particularly Spain will take notice how the Indios are being oppressed by the Spaniards. Apparently, they the great propaganda movement was justified because the Filipinos at that time were not free.

Any good mother can relate to our article concerning the seven sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Although Our Lady did not actually experience what her Son Jesus Christ did, the vicarious experience of Our Lady as His Mother can never be discounted. With the merits of recollecting these sorrows as a supernatural promise concerning a devotion, we are presenting to you the seven sorrows that she had experienced which when meditated upon with the prayer of the Ave Maria for each sorrow, a certain merit is earned by each devout soul.

It seems that China is bent on making war with the Philippines.

On the premise that the Catholic Church is the Church founded by Jesus Christ and is therefore, a living church; I am writing here the feast days of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who up to this present time continues to be a messenger of the Holy Spirit to teach the complete Truth in the end of times through her many apparitions.
