The Ego How to Kill the Ego   Modern psychology has told us we must feel good about ourselves and instructed us to reject the idea of guilt and sin. Sin is seen as religion's instrument for keeping people in line, making them dependent on an institution that should be relegated to the Dark Ages. In an age where man is elevated to being his own god, religion is seen as a sort of enslavement. Up with self! Down with guilt!   Self as the new god is worshiped at the expense of community and enthroned in a position of the utmost importance. Worship of self has contributed to the downfall of families and societal stability, with careers, social and financial gain and self fulfillment reigning supreme.   Divine love does not tolerate this elevated status of self, for the ego is the enemy of our communion with God. In an age of financial collapse, mortgage foreclosures and high unemployment, worship of self dooms us to a life of total loss.   We were created for communion with God and the

MESSAGE FROM PATRIARCH CYRILLIC TO ALEKSANDR DUGIN "Dear Alexander Gelyevich! I was deeply saddened to hear the news of his daughter's tragic death. Darya Aleksandrovna was known in Russia and beyond its borders as an active public figure, a brilliant journalist, and a gifted academic researcher. As a follower of her work, she, despite her youth, was able to achieve significant success in her field, receiving the gratitude and respect of her colleagues. During the days of tough trials, connected to the loss of loved ones, the words of Scripture are of comfort to us: "For if we live, to the Lord we live; if we die, to the Lord do we die." Fortunately, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord." (Romans 14:8) Merciful Father of Heaven and Earth, may He give rest to the soul of His recently deceased servant Darya in the dwellings of the righteous, grant her eternal memory. with my sincere condolences . Cyril, Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia."

The world's most dangerous philosopher and the world's most dangerous philosophy. What is so dangerous about Alexsandr Dugin's ideas that they would try to kill him (slaughtering his daughter)? Why? What is so deadly? Note that Bill Copeland hasn't bothered to watch the video, just read the paragraph introducing it, and like all shallow people of the feckless middle thinks he understands the content.  What is expose on the part of Copeland is an abysmal level of ignorance wrapped in a sea of pride.  Pride is the sin against the Holy Spirit, a resin impervious to Grace.  What Copeland offers is the "nice hippy Jesus" infamous of Village Voice fame. That article in the Village Voice in the 1960s was followed by the song "Jesus was a Capricorn" by Kris Kristofferson. Jesus was a Capricorn He ate organic food He believed in love and peace And never wore no shoes Long hair, beard and sandles And a funky bunch of friends Reckon we'd just nail hi

(Bond Note:  I've written many articles over the last thirty years carrying the same theme.  Clericalism is a curse, empowering evil and paralyzing the faithful who suddenly don't feel qualified to know and experience the truth.) Putting Off Royal Pretensions Clergy Must Be Loving, Caring, and Merciful Pastors Orthodoxy has traditionally avoided clericalism, yet in more recent times this very corruption of priestly service has entered the doors of the Orthodox Church. It has led some clergy to seek out, for personal gain, even the heavy burden of hierarchical service to Christ's Church. Motivated by their desire for princely honor, their sight is clouded so as to endanger not only their own souls, but the souls of the laity who are in need of humble, fatherly, pastoral care, and who will suffer under their "pastoral" guidance. This quest for honor has led many clergy to participate in a culture of abuse, where they even turn on one another in their sad attempt at

Daughter of Russian philosopher Alexander Dugin killed in car explosion 2 minutes ANKARA A car belonging to the daughter of famous Russian political scientist and philosopher Alexander Dugin exploded late Saturday in Moscow, according to media reports. Darya Dugina’s car exploded on Mozhayskoye highway around 9.45 p.m. local time, with witnesses claiming the blast rocked the vehicle in the middle of the road and scattered debris. Preliminary reports said she died instantly. The elder Dugin has arrived at the scene, according to a video on social media. There is no official confirmation or information on the cause of the explosion. It is unclear if the explosion was an assassination attempt targeting her father, who has been described as the “brain” of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Darya Dugina, like her father, was engaged in journalism, philosophy and political science.

 The Patriarch of Moscow, says, "if we learn to connect our religious beliefs to our daily life, to our agenda, and supply those beliefs as a priority, we will be very strong indeed - at the personal, family, and state level."  In America there is a growing drumbeat to shut Orthodox commentators and teaching who are "working in the culture" to teach the principles and theology that are virtually lost in the fallen western civilization. And this drumbeat is coming from "so-called" Orthodox people.  Those people need to listen to learn history and listen the Patriarch.  russian-faith.com Head of the Russian Church Urges Christians to 'Go Against the Mainstream' Sins of Modern Life & Liberalism (Interfax Religion) Aug 19, 2022 | 3-4 minutes Editor's Note : This article was generated by machine translation, so o
