John McGhie
(1867 — 1952)

John McGhie was a Scottish painter. Born near Lanark, Scotland in 1867, McGhie began his education at the Glasgow School of Art where he remained for one year before receiving a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy Schools. His time at the Royal Academy Schools in London under the tutelage of the late John Everett Millais proved to be both instructional and inspiring. Upon graduating from the RA Schools McGhie travelled to Paris to continue his artistic education at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. Whilst in France, the artist was witness to many vibrant and increasingly changeable artistic movements. The effect of his traditional British education combined with the ambitious, Impressionistic sway of France encouraged McGhie to explore a distinct style of representation upon his return to his native Scotland in 1904. Settling in the fishing village of Pittenweem on the Firth of Forth, McGhie began to represent the sea and landscapes around him. Life in the fishing village proved to be a source of great inspiration to the artist, who later began to capture the people and fishermen of his adopted home in his work.

McGhie was a celebrated seascape artist, and became known as an accomplished portraitist in the early 1910s. His work was widely exhibited in both Glasgow and London, and the artist first participated in a Royal Academy exhibition in 1911. McGhie enjoyed great success throughout his long career. His joy in, and talent for, painting the sea views and industrial people around him en plein air encouraged his artistic approach to develop considerably, his colour palette and swiftness of brushwork inspired by the changeable coastal scenery in which he revelled. The artist died in 1952.

Flannel wall important in quilt design

IMG_3287I taught myself about quilting by reading books and watching tutorials on the Internet.  One of the first and best tips I found was to dedicate a large part of one wall in my sewing room/studio to a flannel board of sorts, otherwise known as a flannel wall.  Who knew that the old teaching tool from elementary school would be my foundation tool for quilt design?!  Yet…fabric sticks to flannel so you can place fabric on the wall, stand back and decide if the colors, shapes, and design are working before you sew. Standing back at least 10 feet gives you good perspective.  And I continue to do this while I sew and piece a quilt.  Since I am often working with fabric pieces that have yet to be cut to the shape/size I want, the flannel board is a very abstract way to get a general idea of whether I like the direction I am going BEFORE I commit too many hours to a quilt creation.  Something as simple as putting random pieces of the fabric colors on the flannel and then stepping back, can tell you…YES, this is a go or WHOA…not so much.

The first picture heIMG_3101re is of the beginning stages of a tree quilt, figuring out whether or not the fabric for the water will work, is the angle what I want and what fabric to use for the next tree to be added.   The second picture in my blog is of the creation of another quilt when I was sorting out which way to go with my design.  I had an idea to use more random colors and pieces for a section but upon placing pieces on the design wall I saw it was too busy and not what I wanted.  The flannel wall saved this quilt!!  I shifted to a different design and the finished quilt is awesome.

The third picture is a mosaic quilt on the flannel wall in which the colors just didn’t work for me.  I ended up using all the piecIMG_2334es but making two different quilts, both of which are pleasing individually but not so much as one big quilt.  One of the fun aspects of contemporary quilting is the freedom to design in anyway you want, without the constraining squares or carefully followed patterns.

I also use the flannel wall extensively when working on custom quilts in which someone wants a quilt “sort of like….but with some different colors”.  In those situations I will often design the quilt fairly completely on the flannel wall and send photos.  It is easier to change some colors before final construction than learn that the colors in the middle are just not right.

Finally, I almost always put each quilt as a quilt top on the flannel wall for a day or two as I think about how to quilt it.  I am not a stipple all over kind of quilter but rather want to quilt stitch in ways that accentuate the design of the art quilt.

So for a few dollars and a few thumbtacks you can create a very important tool for quilt design.

The Dangers of Asbestos in Lungs

Posted on

The Dangers of Asbestos in Lungs, | An unusual number of deaths were reported worldwide from workers exposed to asbestos. Many of these people were men who were insulating buildings. Their lungs became filled with asbestos fibers, which caused them to be infected with the very rare cancer mesothelioma.

It is believed that mesothelioma can be prevented through the use of respirators, but that a lot of it will also be prevented through medical care. Prevention is often the only way to be certain that you are safe from this cancer.

Asbestos fibers are deadly when inhaled and they have been known to spread through the body if they reach the lungs. The deadly effects of asbestos are also well known.

Asbestos in Lungs

There are other ways in which a person could contract this fatal lung disease, but they are not quite as common. However, the dangers are still present.

For a long time now, it has been believed that asbestos in lungs will not cause mesothelioma. However, recently a group of researchers took a closer look at the cases of mesothelioma in former asbestos workers.

They found that these workers were much more likely to contract the disease than the general population. What was strange was that they had not been exposed to asbestos while working in an office or a factory. Their job was for personal protective equipment (PPE) such as body suits and respirators.

The conclusion was that it was the asbestos that they wore when they worked in an office. In their lungs, the asbestos fibers would find their way. Since the fibers could come into contact with other materials, they would become lodged in the lungs and grow.

Asbestos Siding Shingles – The Truth About Asbestos Shingles

Ifyou are thinking about the dangers of asbestos in lungs, you may want to consider the same precautions that you would if you were breathing asbestos dust. If you are a health professional, make sure that your patients are wearing PPE and that they are being properly ventilated. Once they have been properly cared for, don’t be afraid to ask them about their exposures to asbestos.

Instruct them on all of the techniques that they should be using when working around asbestos and do some workplace safety training. When you are not there for them, the workers will not understand what you mean by workplace safety training. However, the workers need to understand that they are at risk if they do not use proper safety equipment.

Don’t be afraid to say that there are dangers to asbestos in lungs. You may be asking how asbestos in lungs will cause mesothelioma and the answer is that it is in the air that the people breathe when they are exposed to asbestos. If the asbestos is inhaled, they will be exposed to the same effects as if they were being exposed to asbestos on the job.

Mesothelioma, the disease caused by asbestos exposure, can also be prevented. By following the guidelines that have been set forth by the government, you can be certain that you are safe from this cancer. No matter how many deaths the people who work in asbestos factories or offices have experienced, you can be assured that the government is doing everything in its power to protect the public.

Asbestos in lungs should be taken seriously. In a few cases it is possible that people have survived mesothelioma after their lungs had been riddled with asbestos fibers.

Cellulaze Brisbane & Gold Coast Qld

Book a consultation

Cellulaze Brisbane & Gold Coast Qld

“Cellulaze works on the underlying skin structure, proven to improve the appearance of cellulite and has achieved fantastic results for thousands of patients.”

Dr James Chen

Cellulite occurs in 90% of women, regardless of a healthy diet and regular exercise.

Ageing, hormones, genetics, slow metabolism, lack of physical activity and weight fluctuations can all play a part in the appearance of cellulite. These factors can cause skin to thin, connective bands under the skin to stiffen and fat cells to enlarge and unevenly push up into the skin. This causes dimpling and contour irregularity and creates the ‘orange-peel’ appearance. Cellulite is only normal fat beneath the skin and isn’t harmful. Because the fat pushes against connective tissue the skin surface appears bumpy and many women seek treatment for cosmetic reasons.

Other treatments for cellulite, such as massage, external energy devices, creams and lotions only seek to treat superficially and require daily or weekly applications with limited, inconsistent results. Cellulaze is the only treatment that works on the internal skin structure and is backed by years of clinical research.

  • Long lasting results in only one simple treatment
  • Proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite
  • Produces healthier looking skin

Cellulaze is the first effective, long-term solution for cellulite. Worldwide it has a very high success and patient satisfaction rate.

Cellulaze for effective and long-lasting cellulite treatment

Cellulaze is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses laser energy to reduce cellulite by restoring the normal structure of the skin and underlying connective tissue. A tiny fibre optic laser allows us to go gently under the skin through pinhole incisions and treat problems of the skin architecture.

Cellulaze disrupts trapped pockets of fat and releases fibrous bands that pull down on the skin, it stimulates collagen growth for thicker, more elastic and healthier looking skin. It is the only treatment that works on the structure of cellulite.

What to expect during your Cellulaze procedure

At Ashbury Cosmetics, we will first take the time to discuss your needs and concerns to determine if Cellulaze is the most appropriate treatment for you. We ensure you are fully informed before proceeding with any treatment.

  • Your physician will examine and mark the areas of cellulite to be treated
  • A few tiny incisions will be made, about the size of the tip of a pen (no stitches are required)
  • Local anaesthesia or numbing solution is applied
  • The Cellulaze laser fibre is threaded through a very small tube (or cannula) and inserted through the incision site

Your physician will use the SideLaze3D™ Cellulaze laser fibre to:

  • Level out bumps of fat
  • Treat dimples by releasing the fibrous bands that pull down on the skin
  • Stimulate collagen production to increase your skin’s depth and elasticity
  • The liquefied fat is gently pressed out

The entire procedure should only take about 1 – 2 hours.

Cellulaze is minimally invasive with minor side effects

Cellulaze has been thoroughly investigated to ensure safety and effective results. Clinical studies have shown that a single Cellulaze treatment improves the appearance of cellulite with few side effects. Research has also indicated Cellulaze improves skin quality and results in thicker, more elastic skin. Post-procedure, most people report feeling like they had a tough workout the day before and minor bruising. You will need to wear a compression garment for a few days to reduce swelling but you will be able to return to work the next day.

Revolutionary cellulite treatment Cellulaze is now available at Ashbury Cosmetics in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.

Ask The Council

What will you ask Spirit?

What is this Loving Relationship Trying to Teach Us?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Hornetto, who asks a question about a loving relationship that’s mutual in one deep sense, but not in another and he doesn’t know how to define this love. He says this relationship is a soul contract and he wonders what it has to teach the two of them.

The Council says when some people talk about a soul contract they think this is the person for the rest of my life. A soul contract can just be someone you meet, even if just for a little while, that comes into your life, you experience things together, you help each other through different experiences, and then the two of you move on to other relationships and other soul contracts. Some people create many different loves in their life and The Council says they are all soul contracts.

The Council says they see the relationship Hornetto is asking about is for a time. He’s not meant to be in this relationship for his entire lifetime. You’re there to help each other, challenge each other, bring up lessons for each other, and move within those lessons to find understanding. And when you don’t understand you begin to question yourself and you no longer need that person to help you heal or work through your lesson. This person came along to be a catalyst for you to face what you want to heal and to know you can do it yourself.

The Council asks Hornetto what he’s learned from this relationship. What are the up parts and the down parts? How does this relationship make you feel? What does it remind you of? What lessons can be in this relationship? When you part you can still work on these lessons.

Hornetto asks The Council how he can make the best choices for both himself and his partner and The Council says it’s not your place to make choices for another person. Go within your heart and choose for yourself. It’s not your place to force something to happen, but to just flow with the situation. The whole time you’re in this relationship be grateful for it and what it’s there to teach you. Be grateful you’re both there to help each other try to heal.

The Council repeats that this relationship was planned in spirit to be for a limited time. They say this can change, but for this change to occur Hornetto must work on the lessons the relationship is teaching him. When you learn to heal yourself the relationship will have a better way of healing and if you both want to stay together you’ll then be able to.

The Council closes by saying these two people are together to bring up the lessons they need, but begin with the lesson of abandonment and you’ll figure out the rest of your lessons in time.

Listen to the entire 5-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Hornetto and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask your own question.

Is Sensitivity to Showing My Skin Related to a Past Life?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eden, who says she’s quite self-conscious about showing her skin in public even though there’s nothing wrong with her skin. She asks if this is issue connected to a past life, and what she can do to work through it and heal it?

The Council says they see two past lives related to Eden’s difficulty exposing her skin. One life wasn’t too long ago where she was Amish and had to cover her skin. Eden never liked this and wanted a life where she was free from these restrictions and could dress differently.

There was also a life in the 1500s where you were part of a very large family with a mother and father who thought they were very religious and had many rules. In this lifetime one of the rules was that you couldn’t show your skin. These people believed the body was shameful and had to be covered.

The cell memories of these two past lives bring the fear you need to be covered up and the fear you can’t change your life, but these past lives are why you’ve come into your current lifetime. You can very slowly change this pattern. You have the freedom to wear shorter skirts and shirts with short sleeves.

One day you can go out without socks on. Go out with something where you can roll up your sleeves. It may be nerve-racking at first. You may not understand your fears and you may not think these things are helping, but you wanted the freedom to experience this fear again in your current lifetime and realize you have choices and you can change this pattern. Maybe start by just walking around your house or apartment with clothes that give more exposure to your skin and see how that feels. Then gradually you can work you way up to going outside and see how that feels.

As you get over the fear of exposing your skin you’ll have the freedom to enjoy the heat because you can dress the way you want.

Listen to the entire 5-minute audio recording of our session with The Council to hear all their guidance for Eden and the rest of us and let us know what you feel, or ask The Council your own question.

Making the Right Decision

How often do you make a decision and wonder if it was a good decision, or the right decision? Natalie writes that she recently made a life altering decision and she’d like The Council’s opinion on whether it will lead to a better, brighter future for her and her children. This post looks at The Council’s guidance for Natalie, which seems like good advice for anyone wondering if a decision is the ‘right’ decision.

“We feel there were many tiny little decisions made… and a life altering decision. Many believe that would be some huge decision that was made, but the tiniest decision you make can be life altering.

“But we would like to say here that she should relax, and enjoy, and live in the moment of her new decisions. We would like to stress that. “And so we believe that for a while this will be a very good move.

“Now we would also like to say (so that Natalie is not frightened when we say ‘for a while’) when you reach your goal or your dream, or have what you believe you wanted, and when you experience what you believe you wanted to experience… life would be very boring if that was it.

“There will always be a new desire, a new decision to make, a new path to travel on. And so while we see that her decisions were perfect for right now, she will have many experiences and then there will be more decisions.

“And so to try to say, ‘this is it…’ we would never say that. There is always more, and always more, and always more. And she will always have the guidance; if she pays attention and listens to the little voice, or the little gut instinct and the little bits of intuition she gets, she will constantly move forward.

“Movement on her part that was made right now, we see it as something she will enjoy.”

—The Council

Little Decisions Can Be Life Altering

Aside from The Council’s reassuring opinion that Natalie’s decision is a good one right now for her and her children, they make a few interesting points here that feel like good advice for almost anyone, starting with the idea that a little decision can be as life altering as a great big decision. If you want to change your life, it seems common to believe that really big decisions need to be made.

But The Council reminds you this isn’t the only way to change your life. It’s also possible tiny little decisions like following inspired hunches, instincts, and intuitions, can alter your life just as much as decisions that feels like really big ones.

Enjoy Living in the Moment of Your Decisions

The idea that it’s good to live in the moment has been around for a long time. Eckhart Tolle’s bestselling book, The Power of Now, has done a lot to popularize this idea in recent years. And an internet search for ‘live in the moment’ turns up lots of quotes from respected thinkers like Buddha, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thorough, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, Benjamin Franklin, and Albert Einstein. But it wasn’t immediately obvious what The Council meant by their suggestion that Natalie live in the moment of her new decisions.

You Will Always Have Guidance

When The Council says Natalie will always have guidance, we believe this is a good reminder for all of us. When you’re open to the idea there’s a spiritual part of you that’s always available to offer you helpful guidance when you pay attention to that little voice, or gut instinct, or intuitions that come to you; this guidance will help you with all your decisions.

There Will Always Be More

When there’s uncertainty about a decision, particularly one that feels like it will alter your life in a significant way, once the decision is made it can be tempting to hold on to the decision rather than face the uncertainty of letting it go and making a new decision. But The Council reminds Natalie and the rest of us to be open to new life experiences that inspire new desires, new decisions, and new paths in your life. And by paying attention to the guidance available from the larger spiritual part of you, you can relax and enjoy the forward movement that comes from your new decisions.

You are the Creator of Your Experience

After reflecting on The Council’s comments for Natalie, it feels like their suggestion to live in the moment of her new decisions combines the general idea of living in the moment, with the idea there will always be more to experience and more to decide. And when you live in the moment of these new experiences and decisions, this is where your spiritual guidance is most accessible to the human part of you.

But more than that, from the point of view of The Council’s #2 teaching (which is that you are the creator of the reality you experience), when you live in the moment of your new decisions, every moment becomes an opportunity to create a new decision to focus your attention in ways that adds to your well-being. We believe that makes this very practical advice for all of us.

Dear Daisy Dog: Our golden retriever Clyde was spitting up, so we took him to the veterinarian who diagnosed megaesophagus. The vet is doing more tests but for now is having us feed him on the stairs and then stand him up on his hind legs for 10 minutes after he eats. I know the name means “large esophagus,” but I’d appreciate more information about this disease.

Daisy Responds: The esophagus is the muscular tube connecting the mouth to the stomach. When the esophageal muscles are too weak to propel food to the stomach, food sits in the dilated, flaccid esophagus and may return to the mouth, where it’s spit out. This passive process, called regurgitation, is the most common sign of megaesophagus.

Regurgitation is very different from vomiting, an active process that involves retching and abdominal contractions. Vomited food is brought up from the stomach and duodenum, the first segment of the intestines.

Megaesophagus can be a primary disease or it may occur secondary to another condition, such as myasthenia gravis, Addison’s disease (hypoadrenocorticism) or hypothyroidism. If your veterinarian’s testing identifies an underlying disorder, treating it should help.

Nevertheless, management of megaesophagus includes feeding Clyde in a vertical position, with his spine perpendicular to the floor, and maintaining that posture for 10 to 30 minutes after the meal, so gravity helps move food to the stomach.

Many families make or purchase a Bailey chair to keep the dog comfortably upright. See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/megaesophagus/ for a photo and to join the canine megaesophagus support group.

Small, frequent meals usually help. Your veterinarian may have you experiment with different kinds and consistencies of food to determine what works best for Clyde.

Any food that gets inhaled into the lungs can cause aspiration pneumonia, a life-threatening condition. Call your veterinarian immediately if Clyde develops lethargy, breathing changes, coughing or other difficulties.

Answering Readers’ Questions…

Here are a list of questions from readers. I’m going to answer all of them over the next couple of days so if your on this list check back. I may not have time to get to everyone tonight, but I will come back and answer you.

The first question is from Tjuania:

Tjuania in Desoto, Texas

I was wondering, do you know if there will be any other investigations againse Sarah Palin, and do you know what she will be doing on November 4, 2009???? I hope she is in Alaska, somewhere figuring out whether or not she will be impeached????

I had written a couple of posts about Sarah Palin just after the Republican convention when there were just inklings of her ethics trouble, mostly in the tabloids. I actually called in Palin-gate because the term trouper-gate hadn’t been coined yet and I figured every corrupt political event has to have a gate on the end of it because of Watergate. But anyway, her chart indicated that if she handled the investigation with arrogance and lying more skeletons were going to shake lose out of her closet. If she would have been amenable and somewhat modest, this would have blown over for her. But she has a lot of enemies up there (from her chart) and by being cocky and whipping crowds up as she has, she’s going to get some serious karmic retribution. Now, it won’t be before the election. It will happen over the next couple of years. She has Neptune conjuncting her sun and that can give you a certain glamour but it also causes delusion. It can also increase your psychic ability if you happen to be of that persuasion. But alas Sarah is not. This again is a karmic outer planet. And it is making some bad aspects to her chart. If you search the site you’ll find 2 articles about trouper gate (search Sarah Palin) in the tarot reading, which is probably the one you read, it said she would have an ethics violation but it wouldn’t be criminal. But her astrology (which is a much longer time frame I was looking at) showed that she won’t be out of the woods with just this one investigation and as I said earlier if she handled the way she has been handling it, it was going to lead to big trouble and possible impeachment.

Now will she be impeached? I’ll ask the tarot, but sometimes when things are too far in the future the tarot gives a maybe, but we’ll see here…

And the answer is:

I have and have had a feeling that once this Neptune transit lifts off her sun she’s going to fade back into obscurity and this would make sense if she gets impeached. Neptune causes a lot of illusion, delusion and again glamour, all of which we are seeing in her case. If she had not abused her power and been a stand up gal, this transit would have ushered in the glamor, greater intuition and maybe so many opportunities she wouldn’t have known what to do with them, but she could have remained a player on the national stage. Alas, it seems, unlike what pundits and logic would dictate, she will be a super nova and burn out as fast as she has blasted into the scene.

She’s made a lot of her fellow politicians uncomfortable and there’s been some funny business it looks like with finances. Once she’s investigated their will be issues related to financial matters that are at the heart of her impeachment.

Noooo! Please, say it aint so! Will he a least hold his own during the last debate? Will the “Bradley” effect take place come Nov. 4?Please, say it aint so! About this last debate…I just hope he gets his policies across. Mccain/Palin need to have karma bit them in the butt!

Hi Curious,

I couldn’t agree more. I was surprised to see McCain “winning” according to the cards. But I think its more like the way Biden/Palin was a draw. McCain can’t really win at this point, he’s double digits behind Obama. But he can attack. And boy did it look like he was going to. So much so that Obama will not really be able to defend himself completely.

Hey if any of you who work closely with Obama can give him this message. McCain’s going to really be nasty. He’s going to throw stuff at Obama that we haven’t seen before. McCain is coming up as the devil card, meaning he’s going to be abusive.

I don’t think Obama has any idea how assaultive and aggressive McCain is going to be and this will throw him off a bit. Honestly though there isn’t much Obama will be able to do against this insanity, if he fights him, it won’t look good either. He’s just going to have to unwind the lies and mess McCain will make for the next couple of weeks after the debate. I think McCain may have some crazy surprise he’s going to throw at Obama. What that is? I don’t know. But it’s not going to be pretty.

I just want to say that McCain will appeal to his base in this debate. Those people who live in fear, are xenophobic, hipocritical and nasty, their going to love this new take no prisoners McCain.

I’m going to ask the tarot if this debate will effect McCain’s poll numbers:

Yes. We will see a rise in his numbers but mostly from the disaffected. It looks like those that will be attracted to this new side of McCain are very negative people. I’m being generous there, these people are very angry, confused, competitive, racist, hypocritical and have psychological problems. But there’s enough of them that it will make his numbers go up, so there you go.

Oh my Oh my !
So will Obama lose or win the election ?
Do you see clearer ?
Will he win the popular vote and lose the electoral one ?
Or will it be a landslide none the less ?

I asked the tarot if Obama would win by a landslide:

The answer, Maybe. But he’s going to have to work his butt off.

I’m worried that McCain is going to whip up the extreme racists in this country. I worry that Obama will win and someone will try to assassinate him before he’s sworn in. This is my greatest fear right now. I would blame the McCain campaign directly if this happened. This is the kind of fire and darkness McCain is stirring and will stir during the next debate. It is disgusting and very scary. I hope McCain gets it together and the other side of his personality takes over again and he reigns in this evil side. We’re going to see this evil side the next few weeks before the election. It’s sad that people actually will actually respond positively to this and like that in a leader. I guess that’s how Hitler won the election in Germany. I guess all McCain cares about is winning. He clearly has no ethics or scruples.

Hi Denise, Thank you again for all of your insights. You are really doing a therapist’s service trying to keep everyone from losing their minds! I have a philisophical question. You mentioned that you saw things progressing better with Obama than McCain… As new people, nations, and ideas are proposed and implemented, is it possible that choices could be made and the Dec 21-22 aspects could reflect a radical new approach instead of a destined Dow market implosion? I have to believe that we have the ability to alter both our fate and consequently destiny… I am praying for it everyday, for the highest good of the world. Thanks.

I am too, thank you for praying. Everyone should be right now.

You are right in that fate and destiny interact with free will which is why Einstein talked about different time streams. We literally create alternate futures depending on which way the Collective Unconscious (Jung’s term) shifts.

Right now we are truly on the precipice of choosing, hope, life, healing and upraised consciousness or fear, hatred, prejudice and the planets extinction. It really is that dramatic. I’ve been seeing these two time streams for the past 20 years. We’ve taken turns down each of these paths. But right now this next step is the one that jumps us off the cliff. If we make the wrong decision it may not be possible to save our world. Seriously. I am so worried.

I am ultimately an optomist and want to believe in the basic good of humanity. But I’m also old enough to see this isn’t always so. Fear and Love are equal forces, if they weren’t free will would have no meaning. If love always conquered all (like in the movies) then there would be no Pul Pot, no Hitler, Stalin, Jeffrey Dahmer, etc. And it would be easy to turn fear off and turn on the love we have for our family, friends and humanity on when it was needed. But this isn’t so.

Earth is a classroom with no supervision. We have teachers drop down every once in awhile but mostly we’re on our own to figure it out. I just pray there are enough of us who are spiritually evolved (meaning: compassionate, generous, loving, kind hearted, good spirited, helpful, polite, etc. not neccessarily religious) that we can make it across this threshold.

Often the 3 major Western religions have done more harm in the way of spiritual development than good. I’m not saying there aren’t very evolved and truly spiritual people who practice all religions, I’m saying that because these practices require a giving over of the self to a priest, rabbi, or imam instead of fostering a direct relationship to the divine, it encourages several infectious spiritual diseases. In the case of Christianity the idea that one can be forgiven for any and all sins by Christ and go to heaven just by believing in Christ takes away personal responsiblity which is why we see so much hypocracy among even the higher ups in the most radically judgemental churches. Basically, this is a form of spiritiual narcissism that fosters a sense of entitlement instead of what Christ meant to foster which was humanitarianism, compassion and love. I could go on, but it’s getting late and I have a lot to say about this subject matter, this is actually one of the main reasons why I wrote a 100,000 word speculative/spiritual fiction novel. I’ve posted the first chapter and will continue to discuss this and post the book.

Anyway, I’m going to turn in for the night and I’d love any feedback people might have about spirituality or religion. It would be nice to open up a real discussion about it rather then let it get relegated to the ultra right Christians vs. the Atheists. Not that there is anything wrong with either, but there is more to be said about all of this then is being represented by either side. Both have had the ear of the mainstream for a long time, it’s time to actually deconstruct all of it and move up another level.

One positive note to leave everyone on, we are in such a period of novelty and things are changing so fast that what seems horrible today will turn tomorrow. I can see Obama being sworn in as President. I can see it very clearly. But we all must work hard and not take this for granted. And once he wins, he better have the best secret service detail the world has ever known. That’s obvious. But now with McCain’s rhetoric, it’s going to be even more necessary.

Best wishes, blessings and good luck…

Here are the other questions I will answer tomorrow and the next day:

judy ann

With a active volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii causing severe air pollution and a bad real estate market here as well as everywhere else when would be the best time to sell a home And by the way your concern for others and your generosity are really wonderful judy

Then perhaps you are seeing gold being confiscated by governments like the US government has done in the past. People would be forced to use paper currencies and thus no legit market for gold.

I assume you see the same for all precious metals, silver, platinum, as well as precious metal mining stocks?

Thanks for your answer. Dont want to hog the show, but if you can answer these I’d be grateful. There are preduictions elsewhere that suggest that:

1) the elections might be stolen by fraud;

2) if this happens, there’s likely to be a huge riot of youth causing much loss of life.

What does the tarot say about the likelihoood of these two things happening?

Hi. I was wondering if McCain’s chart could cause a global depression how Rupert Murdoch’s chart, DOB: 3/11/31 interacts with the DOW since his company News Corp purchased it on 8/1/07, per the BBC news report. Might it be a collapse of just the DOW?
I was wondering how the Nasdaq chart might fair? It seems to holding up better against the Dow. Just looking for a glimmer of hope!

Denise, thank you so much for answering my questions. I’m going to be purchasing a 15-20 minute session in the next 2 or 3 weeks, but I was wondering if you could just answer yes or no on this question: Within 25 years will the technology/medical advancements exist that will enable perfect to near-perfect facial skin regeneration?

Thanks so much,

Oh hell, another one

Is the Greene Litigiousness Virus making the rounds lately? Here's another dimwit only too eager to don Patrick's crazy hat and leap into the fray.

A Canton man is suing Zondervan Publishing and a Tennessee-based publisher, claiming their versions of the Bible that refer to homosexuality as a sin violate his constitutional rights and have caused him emotional pain and mental instability.

Well, I'll certainly buy the mental instability bit, but I hardly think the courts are likely to agree that Zondervan's Bibles have caused it. Bradley LaShawn Fowler has apparently failed to notice that every translation of the Bible in existence vilifies gays, even the many millions of editions not published by Zondervan. There are sound condemnations to be made of the Bible regarding the suffering its teachings have caused many groups of people down the centuries — gays, Jews, atheists, women. But frivolous litigation addresses these issues not at all, and only invites more derision. I suspect Mr. Fowler (who's representing himself, which I'm sure will come as a knockout surprise) is destined to endure yet more "demoralization, chaos and bewilderment," especially when he finds out just how quickly this one gets thrown out.

  1. Wow, it's weird because I was just writing up a blog post on this kind of topic (though it's unfinished).

    In Canada, we don't have the absolute freedom of speech like in the United States, so there is some limitation in insulting speech that may not actually be libelous (resultant primarily due to the Reasonable Limits clause of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which in general I actually like having in place).

    Because of this, public protests of homosexuality in Canada was ruled illegal a few year back. Because this also applies to published works to a degree, I've been wondering how that applies to the Bible, Qur'an and Torah. Seems almost impossible to apply any such restrictions on a published work without those books getting grouped in.

    Obviously, though, I'd never sue over it, or worse yet, in a country where it's flagrantly frivilous.

  2. I support this. Although, the judge would probably rule "frivolous lawsuit" and award the defendants cash.

  3. My original reaction to this lawsuit was that it is indeed frivolous. And Zurahn, wow, I did not know that. It is actually illegal to protest homosexuality in Canada? Well, I disagree with that law merely on the grounds of freedom of speech. Countries should be striving for more freedom of speech, not less.

    But that being said, freedom of speech is not all encompassing, even in the US. So I started thinking about the kind of speech that is NOT protected. One cannot directly threaten another person with bodily harm. Such an act is illegal, as well as it should be. Also, I cannot use words to intentionally incite others to commit crimes. A fundamentalist Christian can say all day that he thinks homosexuals should be stoned to death but it is not illegal until he actually calls on others to do just that. If he says “listen to me everyone, today you need to do something. Each of you needs to go out and find someone that you know is a homosexual and kill him where he stands.” THAT would not be protected speech, nor should it be, even if it is religiously motivated. At least that is how I see the law; please correct me if I’m wrong.

    So now let’s take the following text:

    "If a man lies with a man as with a woman, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives." (Leviticus 20:13 NAB)

    If it said they were DESERVING of death or even that they SHOULD be put to death it might be able to skirt the laws but this is actually calling for an action, an action that is illegal in the US. Anyone that has read the bible knows there are numerous such passages that call for an illegal action on the part of the reader.

    I’m not saying that I think we should ban the bible or force them to edit it. But I do think it is an interesting point of discussion. Why can “Book A” not call for the murder of certain groups but “Book B” can? Is it merely because of how old the book is?

  4. Mudskipper: You support what, Mr. Fowler's Suit? Why?

    Bob: The Leviticus passages are ancient texts detailing Mosaic laws of the day. True, modern believers consider this to be the word of God and all, but you'd have a hard time making a case that this text could only be accurately interpreted as a specific call to action for a crime to be committed today. But it isn't just how old the book is: it's whether or not the speech in question can properly be considered to advocate "imminent lawless action." (See below.)

    Hate speech laws are so difficult to define. And they can often cut both ways. A few days ago Ed Brayton posted an article about a group of Catholics in Spain suing the organizers of a gay rights group, for promoting "hate speech" against them.

    Under American laws, the line between free speech and direct, illegal incitement is a tricky one. The "incitement test" has been fought over in a number of cases, and it's likely that the example you give ("Each of you needs to go out and find someone that you know is a homosexual and kill him where he stands.") may very well fall under unprotected speech in that it could be argued to represent (to quote the linked page) "subversive advocacy calculated to produce 'imminent lawless action' and which is likely to produce such action." Under this ruling, Brandenburg v. Ohio, the Leviticus passage would most likely not qualify.

  5. Bill C-250 passed in 2003 in Canada which added sexual orientation to the list of protected groups, equivocating protesting homosexuality to protesting blacks or women. While I understand how this could be perceived as getting out of hand to restrict, I generally agree with it. It rather objectively serves no purpose other than harm and by that token fall outside reasonable limits. But that's due to the structure of Canadian rights, under different structure, such restrictions could be considered more insidious.

    I'm actually surprised, though, about the US laws. I was unaware that saying for example, "You should kill _____ for _____" ('you' as in specific people, not merely suggesting a policy) would be illegal.

    As for the Leviticus texts, the dismissal of the passages as "oh that was then" I find in no way a legitimate defense. When there is a passage that is not part of a moral story, but rather a direct edict from God of, for example, if your child suggests worshipping another god, you must kill him. If the argument that it can be interpreted in any other way applies to that, then that applies to everything and the restriction of texts deemed meaningless. Whether that's positive or negative is another discussion altogether.

  6. Bob: what Martin said, mostly. In a published work, only the author is liable for asserted claims and threats, unless the court decides that the act of publishing causes a direct, present danger. Since the authors of works like the Bible are long dead, however, they are set aside in a category of literature very close to that of fiction novels. This is why things like Mein Kampf cannot be banned outright. Only works that cab proven to have been written recently with the express purpose of inciting violence can be banned, otherwise some of the recent atheist works (for instance) might be stopped because of "hate speech".

  7. Also, just to add that there are many ancient texts that talk about ancient beliefs. Some are even legal codes. But I wouldn't ban publishing them anymore than I would ban publishing information about how medieval instruments of torture were built.

    The issue with the Bible is that some people believe it's intended for them today--as present-day instructional material. However, that's not the Bible's fault. The author wasn't writing to them. And the publisher is just publishing some antiquated legal codes from the ancient Hebrews.

    If someone acts on this weirdness, or seriously advocates for acting on it in a way that seriously incites others to do so, it's really less that the book "told them" to do this, and more a matter of their warped perceptions. I read the Bible, and yes it says gays should be killed. But I don't see any cause to interpret it as a present-day mandate to action for me. If someone else does--is that the fault of the book or the delusional mind of the individual?

  8. Hey, Zurahn...
    I just read an interview over at Friendly Atheist with a Christian reverend who emphatically rejects the bible as literal, claiming that adherence to literalism amounts to belief in a dead god, and that in order for her faith in a living god to remain relevant (and tolerant of her own homosexuality) the stories are to be embraced as stories containing some modicum of wisdom, but not as rules in which to live your life by.

    This is how she rejects Leviticus and even admits to cherry picking.

    It's weird- but that's one theists reasoning.

  9. That's a very interesting point, Tracie, but I think I can still muster an argument. Would it be considered reasonable to think that any time The Bible was written as a legal codification, or anything other than divine instruction? If it was always written as "God's will" then it was intended for all people of all times.

    spajadigit, I've heard different responses to varying quality, but personally I don't really care what a person believes in The Bible (they could write their own and I'd consider it as valid). In terms of application of the law, though, I meant to state that I don't think the interpretation defense would be valid without undermining the law trying to be enforced.

    I'm just trying to put both sides out there. Obviously The Bible isn't going anywhere, nor would I seriously insist it does.

  10. Heck, you can even get people like Dennis Prager who insist that the Levitical laws weren't even enforced at the time.

    He thinks all these death penalty admonitions for various and sundry offenses were only there to highlight the seriousness and importance of God's commands, even though - despite their apparent "seriousness" - enforcing them wasn't considered all that important. Yeah, right.

    He claims to be an expert in Hebrew and seriously argues this. He claims there's "no evidence" anyone was ever put to death based on these laws, but I'm wondering what we should expect to find to convince him? A skeleton with a sign around its neck saying "killed for breaking the Sabbath"?

    Just goes to show you can convince yourself of anything if you really want to.

Unfortunately the answer is, no.

Reasons I dislike movement trackers when it comes to tracking calories.

  1. Why are we tracking calories burned? So you can make up for the food you ate? That’s incredibly unhealthy mentally and physically. When you work with a qualified nutritionist they will take into account your movement based upon formulas that have been tested and proven through years of studies. Are they 100% accurate, no but they are close and that’s why you need a good coach, they will adjust the calories as needed based upon your biofeedback and metrics.
  2. They are very inaccurate. Studies show the best tracker to be Apple Watch and that is 20% inaccurate assuming that you wear it perfectly. All the time, during every workout and all of your movement. Apple even has a disclaimer that tells us HIIT workouts can’t be accurately tracked. The worst is the fitbit which was off by 27-93%. Facepalm
  3. I touched on this in #1 – it really bothers me when I hear people saying “how many calories did you burn during your workout” NOBODY KNOWS. Who Cares? Are you working out purely to burn calories?
  4. Unpopular truth- if you are working out with the main objective of burning calories good chance you will never reach your goals or get the body you want. When you train for the purpose of getting stronger, playing a sport, enjoying your time, perfecting a craft- the body you want comes along with the joy of the activity.
  5. METs – metabolic equivalent you often see METS on cardio machines. We do a formula that is MET X bw in KG to find how many calories you would burn per hour then go from there. Nutrition professionals have METs broken down into each specific sport and activity by output and intensity.

I do like movement trackers to encourage more activity. To increase steps walked, to remind people that they are sitting too much, to create friendly competition between peers. For that purpose they are awesome.

Things to strongly consider

  • Fitbit was off by 27-93%
  • Apple Watch was off by 20%
  • Stanford did a study comparing the devices to a direct calorimeter which measures oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange
  • Machines at the gym and peloton are way off as well. METS are pretty accurate, they are the gold standard for research studies. Peloton gives us the total watts used which can be converted into METS and the formula they use is off by 100-330 calories on average.

When it comes to heart rate these trackers are much more accurate.

What is a Tankless Water Heater?

During the holiday season when your house is swarmed with houseguests, you’d need a nice hot shower to soothe your nerves. But before you can relax peacefully in your bathroom, you have to wait in line behind your cousins and in-laws. Then, when it’s finally your turn, the big tank runs out of hot water. You have to wait for it to fill up with enough hot water again. During times like these, a tankless water heater would be a blessing.

tankless water heater

Tankless water heaters, or demand-type or instantaneous water heaters, provide hot water only when it’s needed, instead of continually heating water stored in a tank. It doesn’t produce the energy losses associated with standard tankless heaters, thus conserving natural gas and money on bills. A tankless water heater looks like a box, about the size of a suitcase, and is usually mounted on the wall.

How It Works

To know how a tankless heater works, it’s important to understand how a standard tank heater operates. A traditional heater system heats water in a large tank. The tank continually heats water to maintain a constant temperature. In short, it keeps the water hot even when it’s not being used, and it’s called standby heat loss.

Tankless water heater works to prevent standby heat loss. You don’t need running water all the time, so it works to heat water only as you need it – that’s why it’s called a demand type water heater. This makes it more energy efficient.

When opening a hot water tap, such as a shower or faucet, or starting the washing machine or dishwasher, cold water travels through a pipe into the unit. The tankless water heater recognizes the need for hot water and starts the heating the water using either a gas burner or electric element. It calculates how much heat the burners must produce to deliver water at the desired temperature by identifying the temperature of the incoming water. As a result, it delivers hot water that’s just right to your liking. When you turn off the faucet, the tankless water heater also turns off.

To generate heat, a tankless water heater uses a powerful heat exchanger to raise the temperature. It’s a device that transfers heat from one source to another, and in this case, it transfers heat from the gas-fired burner or electric coils to the water that comes out of your faucet.

Usually, a tankless water heater can provide hot water at a rate of 2-5 gallons per minute. Gas-fired tankless water heaters can produce higher flow rates than electric ones. Also, even the largest, gas-fired models can’t supply enough hot water for simultaneous use inside a large household. For instance, when someone’s taking a bath, and another person is using the dishwasher, you may stretch tankless water to its limit. If you have a large home, you can install two or more tankless water heaters. You may also install separate tankless water heaters connected to your appliances that use a lot of hot water, such as your washing machine or dishwasher.

Types of Tankless Water Heaters

Tankless water systems come in three varieties: point-of-use water heaters, whole-house heaters, and hybrid heaters.

  • Point-of-use water heaters – small water heaters that are installed near an area, room, or appliance that needs hot water. Because it’s small, it can be installed under a cabinet or a closet and be placed closer to your outlet to avoid water loss due to lag time.
  • Whole-house heaters – larger and more expensive water heaters that can operate more than one outlet at a time.
  • Hybrid heaters – combines the functions of a tank and tankless water heater. This can be installed using your existing water heater setup. It has a heat pump that pulls and heats surrounding air and expels cooler air back to the location it is installed.

Advantages and Disadvantages of a Tankless Water Heater

Having a tankless water heater has a lot of benefits, but it also has its drawbacks.

  • It can give instant hot water on demand. You’re not limited to how much your tank can hold; you can enjoy an endless supply of hot water in your home.
  • It’s more energy efficient as it produces no standby heat loss.
  • It lowers energy bills up to 20% as compared with using a standard tank water heater.
  • It lasts up to 20 years, which is twice as long as a tank-style unit.
  • It takes up less space and can be installed on virtually any wall in your home. Traditional water heaters need around 16 square feet of floor space.
  • It poses no possibility of flooding because of a ruptured tank.
  • Electric models don’t produce greenhouse gases.
  • It is usually operated by remote control for your convenience.

  • It costs twice to thrice the price of a tank water heater.
  • If you’re using a gas-fired heater, you may need a larger natural gas line to bring enough fuel to the unit.
  • Gas models need annual servicing, which gives you additional annual expenses.
  • Gas-fired heaters produce greenhouse gases.
  • Venting gas and propane units require stainless steel tubing, which is expensive.
  • Electric models need additional circuit and require a lot of energy.
  • Lag time may cause you to let cold water run while waiting for the hot water.

Coronavirus Fears Rock HBCU Campuses — Here’s How School Officials Are Working to Keep Students Safe

The novel coronavirus, officially known as COVID-19 (and as many online are calling “The Rona”), has sickened more than 1,200 people across the United States, and that number only stands to grow as the deadly pathogen continues to spread worldwide.

An estimated 32 Americans have already died from the infection, which originated in China late last year, and the World Health Organization on Wednesday, March 11 declared the outbreak a global pandemic.

Panic over the illness has forced several college campuses to take special precautions to protect its students, faculty and staff amid the crisis. Across the nation, here’s how some historically Black colleges and universities are responding to the outbreak:

Howard University

Howard University
HU moved to online learning this week amid growing concerns over the spread of the coronavirus. The move was first reported by student-run newspaper The Hilltop, and followed by an official statement from the university.

“Over the period of online instruction, we’ll also assess impacts of the change in instructional methodology, and status of the outbreak locally, during this time,” it read. “A status update will be provided to the campus community by March 25, 2020 to determine if any further extension of the implementation of online instruction will be warranted, as conditions evolve.”

Morehouse College
As of March 3, the all-male institution in Atlanta, Georgia, has canceled all faculty-led study-abroad programs until further notice. It has also nixed a Spring Tour that would’ve taken a group of students to Ghana and Senegal, out of an abundance of caution.

On Thursday, March 12, it was announced that the Atlanta University Center (which includes Morehouse, Spelman, Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse School of Medicine and Morris Brown College) would shut down its campuses after an extended spring break and move to online-only instruction.

“The community’s health and well being is our top priority at Morehouse and this is no exception,” the college said in a statement.

Spelman College
The all-women’s college, also in Atlanta, Georgia, said in a campus news release that it is closely monitoring “this fluid situation daily” and urged students to heed recommendations issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Georgia Department of Public Health.

Additionally, it’s requiring students to register their travel plans ahead of spring break, even for trips within the U.S.

Morgan State University
Ahead of the spring break holiday, the Maryland college has decided to cancel classes for the remainder of the week (March 11).

In a statement posted online, officials added: “Upon return from Spring Break on Monday, March 23 and for a period of at least two weeks, Morgan State will be suspending all in-class instruction and institute remote, online learning protocols for all students. At the end of the two-week period, on or about April 3, the University will reassess the implementation of remote class instruction.”

Florida A&M University

Florida A&M University
This week, the university announced that it will shift to remote classroom instruction for two weeks, starting March 23. The institution will remain operational and open for business during this time.

Hampton University
The Virginia college hasn’t moved to online-only instruction just yet, but is mandating that any students, faculty or staff who traveled internationally in the last two weeks self-quarantine for 14-days.

“Academic accommodations will be granted while you are quarantined,” the university said. “You should contact your professors immediately via email to coordinate make up work and assignments. Contact the Health Center via email for medical clearance before you return to campus.”

#56 The Wild Way Home by Sophie Kirtley

When Charlie’s longed-for brother is born with a serious heart condition, Charlie’s world is turned upside down. Upset and afraid, Charlie flees the hospital and makes for the ancient forest on the edge of town. There Charlie finds a boy floating face-down in the stream, injured, but alive. But when Charlie sets off back to the hospital to fetch help, it seems the forest has changed. It’s become a place as strange and wild as the boy dressed in deerskins. For Charlie has unwittingly fled into the Stone Age, with no way to help the boy or return to the present day. Or is there?

What follows is a wild, big-hearted adventure as Charlie and the Stone Age boy set out together to find what they have lost – their courage, their hope, their family and their way home.

Paperback | 242 pages

Publisher: Bloomsbury Children’s Books; 01 edition (1 July 2020)

Read: 20th July.

Target Audience: 9-12 year olds

This is currently one of Waterstones ‘books of July’. As soon as I saw it featured, I had to have it. These’s an adventure lurking within these pages.

This was easy to read and easy to get into.

I did feel for Charlie in this. Sometimes, it’s hard being a kid when you have all these emotions but you don’t know what to do with them. I would have run like Charlie, though probably not as far. This story was definitely a lesson for Charlie to learn and the adventure itself was heartwarming and unique.

I thought Charlie displayed great courage and bravery but also showed his vulnerable side.

Harby (Hartboy) was a wonderful character and it was such an interesting dynamic to meet a stone age boy. Their adventure proved that you really don’t have to speak the same language to connect.

Easy to visualise and I was enjoying the story so everything was clear.

This is the third book I’ve read today. It was such an enjoyable and absorbing book. I really loved the premise. I became quite fascinated while reading it and the characters were wonderful. It showed that while we can’t control everything, we can control how we act.

I thought this book was quite excellent. I really enjoyed the story, narrative, and characters. It gave me that warm and fuzzy book feeling.

Since the real estate bubble popped, many residents of Miami-Dade county may have been faced with foreclosure or a short sale and may wonder about the differences between the two. Both transactions can negatively impact the homeowner’s credit. Unfortunately, in recent years, it has been discovered that many short sales are being listed as foreclosures on credit reports, which can delay their economic recovery.

A short sale occurs when a homeowner who has negative equity finds a buyer to purchase the house for the current market value. The difference between the sales price and the amount owed on the loan is then usually forgiven. The bank works with the borrower and the seller and is an active participant in the process. A short sale requires bank approval before it can be completed. In a foreclosure, banks and homeowners do not work together. Homeowners sometimes cause damage to the property, and banks have additional fees and costs associated with repairs and other various expenses. The lender often loses more money in a foreclosure and the process takes longer.

A homeowner who does a short sale ordinarily would be eligible to buy a new home within a year or two. However, when a credit report shows foreclosure, that can delay the process significantly. The problem is, the credit reporting system does not have a code that distinguishes short sales from foreclosures. If borrowers cannot buy new homes, that can slow the economic recovery process.

Persons who are contemplating a short sale may benefit from a local attorney who can help ease the process. An attorney may be able to negotiate with both the bank and the buyer, and ensures that there is someone involved who is looking out for the seller’s best interests.

How To Partition Your Budget

The Best Way To Manage Your Money

Page 2 of 2

Make your partitions

In the old days (before high-speed internet), people used the envelope system. Cash would go into envelopes marked with different budget items (food, clothing, etc.), and that’s how much could be allotted.

This is an electronic era. When you connect your savings account to a tool like, it can read most expenses and put them into a category for you (e.g., groceries, petrol, dining out). Others you will have to identify from a drop-down list. Knowing what your discretionary income is will allow you to “fill the slots” with how much you have to spend in each category.

Mix it up

This is very important. The study shows that after time, your partitioning system will become a habit. Normally that would be good, but in this case you’ll pay less attention to what you’re doing. And if you pay less attention to your partitions, you’ll pay less attention to how much you’re consuming. Translation: Just like with physical exercise, you’ll get bored and want to quit.

So mix it up. Change the order of your wants. Set yourself a different financial goal (an expensive item you’d like to buy, for example). Set yourself a “stretch goal” of putting more in short-term savings.

This post on the book of Judges is the first of two on God’s sovereignty in times of chaos. Click here to see the second instalment, focussing on the book of Ruth.

Much of our experience of life feels chaotic and disjointed. We struggle to catch even small glimpses of an overarching purpose. We cannot read God’s mind, or directly observe his hand of providence at work (e.g. Isaiah 55:8-9). This is particularly true in times of war and its aftermath and, as in the case of the current COVID crisis, in times of widespread disease and its after-shocks.

The Bible is open about the hard truth about the world—and about our own hearts.

The Bible is open about these things. It tells us the hard truth about the world—and, more uncomfortably, about our own hearts. Israel’s history recorded in Judges is one such place where we are confronted with the dark reality of just how bad things can become. But in all this darkness, our unchanging God of holy love is never absent, and he is always at work to achieve his good purpose. In the book of Judges, we encounter God in Chaos.[1]

Faithful God, Adulterous People

The book of Joshua tells the good news of God fulfilling all his promises: the Israelites cross the Jordan; they are given victory over their enemies and receive their inheritance in the promised land (Genesis 12:1-3, 7 cf. Joshua 21:43-45).

But where God proves faithful, the generation following Joshua grows increasingly complacent and unfaithful (Judges 2:1-15). The reason that God had rescued them from slavery in Egypt and given them the land, was so that they could worship and serve him there (e.g. Exodus 8:1; 9:1; 10:3 cf. Deuteronomy 4:1-14; 6:1-25 etc). But this is exactly what they fail to do. Rather than embracing their new life in the land of promise; becoming a light to the nations, the people of Israel compromise with the peoples they had failed to remove as God had commanded.

However, even this rebellion does not lie outside God’s sovereign direction. God hands them over to the consequences of their choices: the nations will remain to test his people and reveal what is in their hearts (Judges 2:20-3:6). In short, while God remains faithful to his covenant, Israel betrays his love. They intermarry with the nations and eagerly embrace their way of life. As Barry Webb puts it, ‘In becoming covenant-makers with the Canaanites they became covenant-breakers with the LORD who had brought them out of Egypt.’[2]

God’s people put themselves in thrall to idolatry. They first tolerate, then embrace the evil practices unheard of in Israel up to that point (e.g. Judges 19:30). Moral perverseness becomes, not just an occasional feature, but the essence, the unconscious norm, of their lifestyle. And yet the continued response of the LORD to his wayward people is one of grace (Judges 2:16-3:6). The pattern described in the narrative of Judges is as follows:

  • Israel serves the Lord
  • Israel falls into sin and idolatry
  • Israel is enslaved
  • Israel cries out to the Lord
  • God raises up a judge
  • Israel is delivered

Vortex of Evil

Despite repeated cycles of God’s discipline and mercy, the sin of the people not only repeats itself, but deteriorates with every successive generation:They turned back and became more corrupt than their fathers’ (Judges 2:19). There is no light at the end of the tunnel; only the darkness of moral chaos; ‘a downward spiral, a vortex in which Israel is drawn ever more deeply into the grip of the evil it has chosen.’[3] After the Samson narrative (13:1-16:21), no more Spirit-anointed Judges are raised up by God. Instead what we witness is the Lord handing Israel over to the lawless lives they have chosen, summarised with the repeated refrain:

In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit. (17:6; 21:25 cf. 18:1; 19:1)

Increasingly, corruption, violence and inter-tribal power plays, not only characterise their politics, but the treatment of the most vulnerable members of their communities (especially women). These come to a head in the closing events of the book (ch. 19-21), which have been aptly described as ‘texts of terror.’

Texts of Terror

A certain Levite of Ephraim takes a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah. Throughout this loveless narrative she is treated like his property. In a desperate attempt to escape her situation, the woman is unfaithful and returns to her father’s house. The Levite travels to her family home to take back what is his. The narrative focusses on the drinking and feasting of the two men, while she is effectively ignored and recedes into the background (19:1-10).

This woman has been shamefully used by all of the men in her life.

But the worst is yet to come. On their way back to the Levite’s home they seek shelter in Gibeah; where a gang of evil Benjaminites threaten to sexually assault the Levite. When the man sends out his concubine instead, she is brutally gang-raped and left for dead (19:18-26).

In the morning, when the Levite opens the front door to leave and sees her lying there, he appears completely unmoved. He tells her to get up and, when there is no response, simply lifts her onto his donkey and goes home (19:27-28). This woman has been shamefully used by all of the men in her life. The sad story continues even after her death:

The Levite took a knife, and taking hold of his concubine he divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces and sent them into all the areas of Israel. (19:29)

Webb writes:

This is the final, ultimate violation of the concubine’s personhood. She is denied even the dignity of burial. And a special horror is added by the lingering doubt about whether she was already dead or merely unconscious when the dismemberment took place. In any case the Levite would not care; he had no further use for her as a person—only as an object to inspire horror and bend others to his will. It is the most appalling abuse of a woman in Biblical literature and perhaps in any literature. But it has exactly the effect the Levite intended.

And all who saw it said, “Such a thing has never happened or been seen from the day the people of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt until this day; consider it, take counsel, and speak. (19:30).[4]

What follows is a blood-bath as the people of Israel seek terrible revenge on the people of Benjamin. Then other Israelite women are abducted and subjected to forced marriage to ensure that the tribe of Benjamin won’t die out (21:16-23). Webb writes:

What started with the rape of the concubine in Gibeah has led to the abduction (and effective rape) of four-hundred virgins in Jabesh-gilead … They have created a world in which right is wrong and wrong is right and landed the nation in complete moral bankruptcy.[5]

Judges ends with the now familiar and ominous chorus: ‘In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as they saw fit.’ (Ju 21:25)

What are these Accounts Doing in the Bible?

It’s safe to say that these are not the stories one might read to a first time inquirer of the Scriptures. But what is abundantly clear is that the Bible offers no escape from the dark realities of our broken and fallen world. Here is no spiritual opiate for the masses; as Karl Marx accused. Rather, in the brutal record of these events the Holy Spirit holds up a mirror to the human race that has turned its back on God; including his own people.

A society or culture in which ‘everyone does what is right in their own eyes’ is a world of chaos and cruelty, where justice fails.

What is the end-point of a society or culture in which ‘everyone does what is right in their own eyes’? It’s not a golden utopia of free love, limitless self-expression and creativity, but a world of chaos and cruelty, where justice fails. The narratives recorded in Judges belong to our world: a world full of revenge and violence, of misguided conflicts, war-crimes and the exploitation of those most vulnerable.

The Incomparable Grace of God

But even in these dark days, God is never absent. He is present in chaos (e.g. 20:1, 18-29). By withholding easy victory to the tribal alliance that sought disproportionate revenge on Benjamin (20:18-36), he hands the whole nation over to the consequences of their shared evil (20:18-28 cf. 20:29-48). God shows no favouritism and makes no deals with his people when they treat him like some false foreign god; as a kind of divine insurance policy in their ill-advised battles. Yet, by the close of the book, each of the tribes has been preserved in their own inheritance (21:24). God has not given up on his covenant with his people.

 God is in the chaos. His holy love meets human evil head-on, even turning it to his own good purposes. As difficult and distressing as they are for us to read, these texts of terror anticipate a final and far more shocking event: the shame and horror of the death of our perfect sinless Saviour on that ugly bloody cross. It is this event above all others that lays bare the utter darkness of our sin, and the unfathomable love and mercy of our good and holy God (e.g. Acts 2:22-25, 36-39; 1Peter 1:17-21; Hebrews 13:11-13). Henri Blocher wrote,

Evil is conquered as evil because God turns it back upon itself. He makes the supreme crime, the murder of the only righteous person, the very operation that abolishes sin…The secret and hidden wisdom of the Lord has caused to coincide the ignoble murder and the act of supreme love of the righteous for the unrighteous, the expiation, by his death in their place, of their sins.[6]

Judges ends with the news that ‘there is no king in Israel.’ But it has a sequel from the same time. In the book of Ruth, barely glowing coals begin to flicker into flame revealing God’s kindness and human kindness; and hope and a future in the most unpromising people living out desperate lives on the margins of society. This book ends with the promise of the Redeemer-King to come.

The expiation; that is the complete removal of our sin from us, is accomplished through the propitiation accomplished by Jesus’ death. That is, on the cross Christ takes the place of sinners, and absorbs in himself the full force of God’s wrath against our sin (e.g. 1John 2:2). In this way, God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.’ (2Cor 5:21)
