How to Start Your Own Religion
Religions are all over the earth. We have book-based religions (such as Judaism, Christianity, Islam and cultic versions such as Mormonism, Armstrongism etc.), man-based (such as ideological belief systems, not necessarily claiming religious authority but perhaps a more mental reason – many self-help ideologies are centered around this) and others are nature-based. There are numerous sub-groups to these major groups.
What is it about religion that attracts us? Many of them are isolationist in nature. Christians don’t like Jews, and others don’t like Muslims. Some can’t stand buddhists – and on and on it goes. People drive one another to hate and division in the name of religion. They want to be “in the right”, and for them to be that they have to isolate people out of their “in club.”
Religion Was Supposed to Unite
Many believe religion was supposed to unite people, yet religions have caused the exact opposite to happen [Read more →]

Are Child Support Laws Equitable and Fair For Both Parents?
I know that this article as well as this subject is going to touch the chord of so many people both positive and negative, both mothers and fathers. I recently posed a question to both men and women and to my astonishment; both favored and concurred with it. So, what is it? Child support! Did you know that child support is determined on the income of the noncustodial parent? Yes, I’m sure most of you know that. However, do most of you agree that child support laws are antiquated and biased and needs to be changed?
If support payment is based on a noncustodial parent income, then what happens to the excess of the money that is received by the custodial parent once the child’s needs are taken care of? [Read more →]

European Royal Families, Current Leadership and Conspiracy Theories
Some believe that there are conspiracy theories afoot and that our current United States Leadership and many of the power elite families are indeed in it for themselves alone over what’s best for our nation. Many of these folks actually believe that these power elite families are an extension of the European Royal Families and there are highly involved in secret societies. Recently in an online conversation on the subject a gentleman of the conspiracy theory side of things quoted;
“Our current leadership is part of what I can only describe as an American continuation of the European Royal Families, extending favor and power to those within the common Familial groups.”
In many regards they in fact do hold many of the leadership positions, yet why is that? Well there are a few reasons; one, they have strong networks, two they are good at it and three they are highly intelligent you see? Any such group of people, or families operating in this fashion would have an edge over others [Read more →]

Christmas Gifts
It’s almost a custom these days to wish ‘Merry Christmas’ with Christmas gifts. The current tradition of giving gifts on Christmas came into popular practice following the Three Wise Men’s (Magi) gifts to baby Jesus. Gift-giving during Christmas is primal to the age-old tradition of Christmas, and this took larger proportions slowly through the years with the rise of consumerism. Now if you come to think of it, today’s Christmas is really impaired without those big boxes in colorful wrappers tied up with glistening ribbons and piled up at the foot of the Christmas evergreen, those red stockings chock-a-block with Santa’s givings, [Read more →]

Vintage Thanksgiving Decorations and Collectibles
Thanksgiving is an occasion everybody looks forward to. It is a special event when families reunite and friends get together for a meal representative of thankfulness for all the blessings that have come the whole year round. Comparatively, Thanksgiving does not tend to the same level of decorating as Halloween or Christmas, holidays for which decorating has become so much a part of the celebration, but there are still wonderful Thanksgiving decorations to make your home more festive. And some of my favorite decorations are Thanksgiving vintage collectibles.
Most Thanksgiving collectibles tend to revolve around the foods we eat during the season, whether used as images on paper items such as Thanksgiving postcards or [Read more →]

Recommendations For a Christmas Full of Great Music
It is without much room for doubt, safe to say that no other holiday (religious or secular), or day of the year or time of which has so much in the way of music dedicated to it; as does Christmas. This in a tradition that goes back through the centuries as far as the middle ages. However it was during the years of the reformation that a lot of the music connected to Christmas was banned as was the celebrating of Christmas itself. This being caused by the believe of those [Read more →]
