You may be right on this. I have in mind the character of these two persons. Each was/is, from my point of view, a self-serving scoundrel.Agreed, but.
I suspect that King Herod had more real power than Drumpf, who appears to be a puppet of a multitude of masters.
Our RTs train people in various exercises they can practice to help when they are having problems. Perhaps he was given some of those techniques in hospital.He appeared to me to be taking a feed deep breathes, maybe a few breathing exercises.
True. Or maybe that's what he does to get grounded after walking up lots of stairs. He's overweight, out of shape. Lots of people would be more winded and even breathing heavy/ fast. He just took a few slow, subtle, deep breaths.Our RTs train people in various exercises they can practice to help when they are having problems.

WC2 offers a clear example of our failed democracy just as well.Trump offers a clear example of our failed democracy. He is much like king Herod.

My thread entitled "Let us think for ourselves and let us remain democrats" ... was met with this council censorship:
This is part and parcel of conspiracy theories. It belongs in the one thread devoted to such. Please be advised that any attempts to start further threads on the same generalized topic will be dealt with as violations of the Code.
So Frankly George ... as this post will probably be deleted before you can read it ...
Nothing to see here folks ... the Ban-ality of Evil conspiracy theory is that the great evils in history generally, and crimes against humanity in particular, were not executed by fanatics or sociopaths , but by ordinary people who accepted the premises of their state and therefore participated with the view that their actions were normal .
There is an appropriate place to discuss and argue mod decisions and this thread is not it. Please start a thread in WC2 News & Business as requested in my announcement. I shall leave this one here but do not continue the discussion further in this thread.

Yes, rest and immerse yourself in whatever nourishes you and renews your spirit. Please know I read most of what you post and find it always an inspiration. I believe you to be an exemplar of the teachings of Christ.Hi...
You may have noticed that very few persons respond to my posts. Not sure why. Suspect some do not like my position regarding the failure of democracy and the rise of corporate tyranny. In this I am encouraged by ancient and modern thinkers. These too were resisted and refused by the governing politicians and the populations conformed to their patterns of control.
For me the Cafe offers opportunity for the practice of language. I simply state my present perspective and have abandoned the struggle of right and wrong. You have probably noticed that I rarely support my thinking by appeal to the thinking of others. Rather I am a seeker of truth, which I do not possess. It beckons me and by faith I follow in its way.
One of my insights makes clear that few in the Cafe, as in the general population, want to know what is now unfolding. Carl Jung speaks of populations repressing their instinctual being. This repression produces what Jung calls “mass neurosis“; a psychological deterioration of human well being producing the ‘madness’ now in play.
It took me many years to grow into my maturity. The basic transition has been from anger to sorrow. How I wish folk would admit where the seductions of power have brought us - to the brink of catastrophe.
Maybe take a break for a bit. It always helps me to step away when conflict emerges and grows.
Peace be with you and yours...
George
My understanding of George’s words is that he suggests a break to Rita, not taking one himself.Yes, rest and immerse yourself in whatever nourishes you and renews your spirit.

Thanks. Either way, sounds like respite of some kind is a good idea.My understanding of George’s words is that he suggests a break to Rita, not taking one himself.
