The comment "all popes are business men" is not something I am going to address in length over live journal. I can say I have heard many aspects and sides on such opinions and reasons related to such statements and they are interesting for discussion. It is always good to question motives and decisions as they come and not wholly accept based on a prepackaged identity.

I overall give you props for all the info. you often share on your journal and feel it is important and necessary to know. Although, I have noticed quite often your need to accentuate the negative without a grasp or less interest on the positive aspects of certain issues. You are very smart to recognize the negative and attack that, I just hope that you are able to remain true and not loose sight of the chance of good in the world.

If I lead a life promoting peace and unity and touching millions of peoples lives, I would be happy to be called a "business woman." Heck, I would wear High heels and a suit everyday!

i do agree with you. and i hope that you touch people. and thanks for the criticism, i'm always open for that. but. it is a strategy i was trying out to maybe shed some light on the situation, hoping it would surprise some people. nothing more. i would like to open some eyes and that's the reason behind the negativity. it is just that which opened my eyes. i am forever a skeptic. and devoted to TRUTH. what we have is extreme marginalization and alienation taking place. people are being lied to and taken from. i really don't see what is so positive about that or what is going on right now throughout the world, so i'm not going to kid myself or anyone else about it. now. i do believe it would help to be LESS negative. you are right about that. but rainbows don't last as long as the storms. again, all i'm trying to do is open some eyes. maybe i should be more inspirational, but the current situation has me with my head in my hands. it hurts to know. so that is what comes out on my journal. i am sorry if i offended ( ... )
