Okay so I have been having thoughts so I shall burden ya’ll with them.
1. Could Jesus… be considered a demigod/half blood?
2. If the religious fanatism of the Catholic/Christian movement hadn’t erased other religions to the point of calling them ‘Myths and Lore’… could an argument be done on behalf of Jesus’ conception being similar of that of Zeus’ previous known and preferred ways to conceived children?
3. The known oldest biblical texts in existence (the silver scrolls) are dated 700-650 BCE. Why is it that Christianism/Catholicism was allowed to continue to expand when at the same time in other parts of Europe and Africa (And possibly the early American cultures that no one know about but that possibly had their own deities) cultures had their own religions and gods that got erased and labeled as fake by Christianism/Catholicism?
4. Why does Christianism gets to erase other deities and proclaim theirs as the one true religion?
5. Like sure, we get the story of Jesus and what he did… but we also know of the stories of Perseus, Hercules, Jason, who were also sons of ‘gods’… what’s up with that?
6. The sumerian tablets (with their own mithology) predate the bible by about 3000 years. Why are those not deemed as real why call their content mythology?
7. I just want to know how Catholicism/Christianism managed to basically erase everything else and remain the one thing that’s considered ‘true’ faith.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk. If any of you have answers or thoughts that you might want to share. I am all ears (eyes).
What's something you would tell yourself, if you could, at age 15? 25? 35?
Describe your funniest medical case you've ever had.
Any of these, or none if you don't really want to. Just trying to help keep your mind off of everything else. 😎😊
My dear, this ask has been sitting in my inbox for exactly one year. Dreadful, isn’t it? My sincere apologies.
My perfect day starts off with rays of morning sun, a good, healthy breakfast, and a newspaper bringing no news. Maybe a light case (no murder), plenty of time to spend with my daughter, have lunch, and dinner with just the three of us.
I would tell myself at 15 that I needn’t to impress and please others in the hope they’d someday appreciate and love me. My 25 year old self should have known that there’s no need to rush and feel left behind in life. I should have known to take better care of myself and my family, without rushing off to seek the thrill and excitement in a desperate attempt to appease the never ending need for diversion. My 35 year old self should have been more observant and less afraid. Life and love were within reach, had I dare acknowledge and claim it.
My funniest medical case? Mmh. I have so many memorable experiences that I find it difficult to decide on the best one. And I must admit that I do not want to breach my patients’ confidentiality and privacy. Though, now that I think about it, each “funny” story does have a melancholy undertone to it… Patients who are afraid to talk to their doctor (or loved ones) and therefore refrain from telling me everything I need to know. Children who are so honest that they tell me everything I do not want to know, or ladies who mistake my medical interest for a lover’s pursuit. I hid myself in the toilets once just to avoid one particular persistent patient - I’m not proud of that.
🖤 Emancipation is a seductive facet of self—confidence, when you can do anything, and you know it. Women with this trait know how to enjoy life, be on top, shine and set their own rules. They don't care whether they are loved or poison is emitted into their backs, they prefer to listen only to their heart and have sweet power over it. Emancipation is freedom, life outside the framework, when you feel like a poet, not a poem, and you always choose yourself, because you are the trump card. ♥
Why do I always feel the need to get up from wherever I'm sitting and pace around the room as if I'm in a tv show hospital waiting room waiting for my nonexistent wife to give birth?
