• You must be wondering what's the difference? Ask yourself how old is your church? That's one. The Second thing you ask yourself is are you loud or quiet when you worship at church. The third is do you even have a church? Some sects don't even have a church. The Jehovah's Witness doesn't even have a church (they say it's a gathering hall. lmao, it's a church).

    Do you take communion every service, my church does, other sects don't. They do so only every 2nd or 3rd Sunday. Many sects eat lunch after every morning service, mine doesn't. There's just so many differences.

    What version is your bible? If it's not King James Version, not the New, It has to be KJV, it's not even close to the actual bible. The other versions are just knock-offs from the Anglican/Episcopal Bibles. The KJV is a knock off from the Torah.

  • 5 Mind-Blowing Differences Between Sephardic & Ashkenazi Jews | Big Jewish Ideas
    2,901,996 views Nov 16, 2022 #Jewish #culture #people

    While about 93% of American Jews identify with Ashkenazi heritage, Israel and the globe are home to a diverse mix of Sephardic, Mizrahi, and other Jewish communities.

    Yet, media often presents an Ashkenormative image, overshadowing the reality that a significant number of Jews worldwide don't fit into this category.

    In North America, the major Jewish communities are Ashkenazi - with ties to countries like Germany, France, and Eastern Europe - and Sephardic, from Portugal and Spain. But that's just part of the story - globally, there exists a vibrant mosaic of other Jewish cultures, including Mizrahi Jews from the Middle East, Ethiopian Jews, and numerous others.

    Despite their unique languages, cuisines, and even some Jewish customs, all these groups share the core connection of Judaism and are part of a singular, global peoplehood.

  • "According to a recent Federal Reserve report, an international agreement reached in the 1990s mandates, need a new system banking regulations. These modifications aim to align national policies with globally established standards. Despite long-standing opposition from influential banking institutions, the proposed changes are expected to take effect by the end of the year. The reforms primarily focus on restricting banks' lending capabilities, ensuring they conform to universal guidelines. It is crucial for the Federal Reserve to have a strong leader who can resist pressure from powerful financial institutions and safeguard the stability of America's financial system."

    The integration of the international financial system has led to large, globally active firms operating within a system of national government and regulation. While there is no realistic prospect for a global banking regulator, the responsibility and authority for financial stability continue to rest with national or regional authorities. The challenge lies in effectively sharing oversight of these large firms among regulators. Varying forms of regulation across countries are reasonable, considering different economic circumstances, currencies, and levels of depth and development in banking and capital markets. Even between the United States and the European Union, legitimate differences exist within the broader convergence around minimum regulatory and supervisory standards developed at various forums.

    The financial crisis exposed vulnerabilities created by foreign banking operations, and the Basel Committee and national regulators were slow to respond to the expansion in scale and scope of the world’s largest banking organizations. Addressing these vulnerabilities requires thoughtful coordination and effective supervision of international activities by U.S. banking organizations.


    In summary, the Federal Reserve’s role in regulating international banking activities is critical, and strong leadership is essential to navigate the complexities of global financial systems and ensure stability.

  • A very nice message by Paramhansa Yogananda, written for Christmas in 1933.
    A Christmas Letter to Students, All Individuals, and All Nations

    Dear Friends:
    Let us decorate the growing Christmas Tree of Civilization with the flaming flags of all brother nations. Let us drown our differences and behold the branches of our National Life spreading out from the tree of one International Life. Let us demand that America, India, Germany, Russia, France, China, Japan, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, Mexico, Egypt, and all nations, learn to decorate their flags on the Christmas Tree of Brotherhood and celebrate the coming of the United Nations of the World through their awakening in Christ.

    Let all brother nations contribute their best to make a League of Hearts and a League of Wisdom in preparation for their coming Union. Let all nations consider themselves as Children of God, with different names only. May the love of nations be the twinkling lights with which to decorate the Christmas Tree of World Union.

    Let us obliterate the oddities of dogmatism and behold all religions as the branches of the One Tree of Truth. Let all sects celebrate around this One Christmas Tree of Universal Religion in the coming United States of the World.
    Let us behold the soft twigs of our temporary joy-loving senses, not projected away from, but joined together to the everlasting Christmas Tree of Divine Joy.
    May we all learn to climb up the Spinal Tree of Life and pass by the starry knots into the Infinite Kingdom of Christ.

    In this coming Christmas, we shall celebrate the coming of One Kingdom, One Religion, One Brotherhood, One Human Nationality, One Wisdom, One Ever-New Happiness, One Language, One Race, One Universal Law, One Freedom, contact of One God, and One Understanding for all human brothers.
    May this Christmas and New Year time fill you with the adamantine determination to improve yourself and others, as Christ would wish you to do, to usher in Paradise on Earth.

    Very sincerely yours,
    Swami Yogananda.

    In its 4.5 billion–year history, life on Earth has been almost erased at least half a dozen times; shattered by asteroid impacts, entombed in ice, smothered by methane, and torn apart by unfathomably powerful megavolcanoes.Every day we take most disasters in stride because they are expected on a planet that is never quiet.Scientists and journalists make the simplest of scientific concepts sound incredibly complicated. They have also set agendas that approximate the arguments for climate change and hope that you forget that it was once called global warming. The media is also banking on the ignorance of the populace when they try and blame earthquakes and volcanic activity on climate.Simple differences between climate, weather, geophysical studies, and seismology have been blurred in a way that there should be a new scientific nomenclature where we can lump it all together.

  • "The obvious differences apart, Karl Marx was no more a reliable prophet than was the Reverend Jim Jones. Karl Marx was a genius, an uncannily resourceful manipulator of world history who shoved everything he knew, thought, and devised into a Ouija board from whose movements he decocted universal laws. He had his following, during the late phases of the Industrial Revolution. But he was discredited by historical experience longer ago than the Wizard of Oz: and still, great grown people sit around, declare themselves to be Marxists, and make excuses for Gulag and Afghanistan."
    -William F. Buckley Jr.

  • World War II: The First Culture War - Robert Oulds
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPTOi3VKQ58
    The national cultures that determined victory and defeat in the Second World War are still with us today, this struggle, the greatest of all conflicts, is the ultimate crucible that tested to destruction peoples and their political systems. The global conflict of WWII, the bloodiest yet in human history, was as much a clash of cultures as it was a clash of arms. Different world visions collided as fiercely as the great armies which encountered each other on the battlefields of Europe, Asia, and Africa. The struggle of ideas was as vicious as the battle on, and below the waves as was the fight in the skies above. Indeed, the culture war and national differences drove the conflict and influenced where, when, why, and even how, the war was fought.

  • September 22, 1862 – Motivated by his growing concern for the inhumanity of slavery as well as practical political concerns, President Abraham Lincoln changes the course of the war and American history by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation. Announced a week after the nominal Union victory at the Battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg), this measure did not technically free any slaves, but it redefined the Union’s war aim from reunification to the abolition of slavery. The proclamation announced that all slaves in territory that was still in rebellion as of January 1, 1863, would be free. Lincoln used vacated congressional seats to determine the areas still in rebellion, as some parts of the South had already been recaptured and representatives returned to Congress under Union supervision. Since it freed slaves only in Rebel areas that were beyond Union occupation, the Emancipation Proclamation really freed no one. But the measure was still one of the most important acts in American history, as it meant slavery would end when those areas were recaptured. In addition, the proclamation effectively sabotaged Confederate attempts to secure recognition by foreign governments, especially Great Britain. When reunification was the goal of the North, foreigners could view the Confederates as freedom fighters being held against their will by the Union. But after the Emancipation Proclamation, the Southern cause was now viewed as the defense of slavery. The proclamation was a shrewd maneuver by Lincoln to brand the Confederate States as a slave nation and render foreign aid impossible. The measure was met by a good deal of opposition, because many Northerners were unwilling to fight for the freedom of blacks. But it spelled the death knell for slavery, and it had the effect on British opinion that Lincoln had desired. Antislavery Britain could no longer recognize the Confederacy, and Union sentiment swelled in Britain. With this measure, Lincoln effectively isolated the Confederacy and killed the institution that was the root of sectional differences.
