I am surprised that the US state department acknowleged the offer from
Cuba, considering the 'offical' attitude towards that country.

All good Christians should ask him why?
With compassion,
Puma

|
| Yes where is VATICAN on that list? They could deliver several
ENDULIJANS perhaps without getting into financial trouble!
Puma

| Puma,
You're talking to yourself :-)
Would you please translate, ENDULIJANS, as there doesn't seem to be any
free web-based Turkish translators.
Thanks
Jared

| Hi Jared,

ENDULIJANS meansINDULGENCE ,in Latin it is INDULGENTIA...I am sure you

Hi Lazarhat,
Thanks for pointing it. Actually Tibet is under the rule of CHINA.
But TENZIN GYATSO, His holiness DALAI LAMA should have done a gesture
by sending something there...
As I always say all the HOLY PEOPLE are holy for themselves only.
You are completely right.And thanks for remind.
With compassion,
Puma

He did do an interview for the news concerning the disaster, but after
hearing it, all I could say was "why?" One is either motivated to action
by compassion itself or not, without worrying about "the big picture" to
which he seemed to be pointing. To point to pictures, "big", "little" or
otherwise is entirely missing the point.
There is only one picture. To describe it as big or little is
discrimination rather than discernment. STFU and allow action to
naturally occur and manifest itself as compassion. Otherwise you fall
into the trap of being Pope-ish, merely granting meaningless indulgences.

=============================
Hi Wade,
If we personly do not know any event then we have to believe it.You are
doing the samething by giving a list of CATOLIC ORG.But!!!!
Regret to inform you that I have more reasons to believe ASSOCIATED
PRESS then a CATOLIC ORG.
Because in its history VATICAN always cheated to its poor
believers.Even they issued INDULGENCIAS To sell the keys of HEAVENS
That is how MARTEN LUTHER started in WITTENBERG. Recently his holiness
POPE did the same thing ,He said if people gathered in berlin all their
sins were going to be forgiven .
So I can not belive these holy people even His holiness Dalai Lama
did not sent any peny to the victims of NEW ORLEANS.
Almost all holy people are same in their characters...Thats how they
got these holiness...Not telling the truth
With compassion,
Puma
