SPIRITUAL By Faith

Living by faith gives on the ability to reach their full potential, as you will operate under the credo that "anything is possible" as said and shown by the Lord. When you believe the sky is the limit, it expands your mind to achieve more, as you are without limits on how much you can accomplish. Having faith, is better than despair, as hope is a vital part of life that keeps ups going and in a good frame of mind.

Movie Review: Captain America

Title: Captain America

Year Of Release: 2011

Review Date: July 31, 2011

Rating: PG-13

Running time: 124 minutes

Box Office Gross: $170,272,000

Site Rating: 7 out of 10 stars



"Captain America" starring Chris Evans and Tommy Lee Jones, was an entertaining film. I saw it on its opening weekend and enjoyed the movie. It was nice going to a movie theatre and not being accosted by some Hollywood weirdness on celluloid.



"Captain America" (Evans) is the marvel comic turned film, about a superhero of the same name, who possesses massive strength and speed. He starts off as a young man wanting to join the army, but is repeatedly rejected for being too small and sickly. An experiment turns him into a strong man.



Chris Evans and Richard Armitage in Captain America

Former MI5 actor, Richard Armitage, went from "Lucas North" to assassin "Heinz Kruger" successfully taking on the role of another baddie. Stanley Tucci delivered a good performance, as did Tommy Lee Jones as the film's best comic relief.



Sadly, my allergy medication kicked in near the end of the film and its main side effect, drowsiness, did as well. I briefly fell asleep in the theatre (sleeping like it was nobody's business) whilst clutching my bag for about 10-15 minutes.



I woke up to see actor Samuel L. Jackson on screen and thought the theatre had begun showing another film. I was not amused that I missed the ending. However, I hadn't. If you watch the film, you'll see what I mean.

Movie Review: The Obama Deception

Title: The Obama Deception
Year Of Release: 2009
Review Date: July 31, 2011
Rating: PG
Running time: 102 minutes
Box Office Gross: N/A
Site Rating: 5 out of 10 stars
Full version of "The Obama Deception"
"The Obama Deception" is an interesting documentary about U.S. President, Barack Obama and his connection to the questionable Bilderberg Group, consisting of a consortium of the world's richest men and women, who discreetly meet every year, in a bid to dictate world finance. Like George W. Bush before him, President Obama has fawned over the greedy group, comprised of billionaires looking out for their bottom line and not the financial health of the general public. The film makes a number of interesting points.
President Obama made many promises on the campaign trail in 2008, only to break the majority of them when he took office. The Bilderberg Group and other wealthy campaign donors, are largely responsible for this irresponsible shift in position. Obama has tried to play both ends against the middle, deceiving one group (the poor and middle class) while appeasing another (the rich). As the phrase goes, one cannot stand on both sides of the issue.
The poster for "The Obama Deception" might be misleading to some, as the movie does not so much imply the president is an Uncle Tom, but reveals his agenda has now become that of Wall Street, mostly comprised of very wealthy white men.
The film also explores America and Britain's oligarchs and the role they have played in shaping world finance. The film accuses the rich of having President Kennedy assassinated, for philosophically breaking ties with them, in turning his attention in office to matters such as ending the war in Vietnam, civil rights for minorities, "cutting the Fed down to size," world peace and developing a space program.
The documentary contends Kennedy's assassination was a warning to all future presidents never to do this again, in a message of, "Do as you are told or die." The film states, "John F. Kennedy had enraged the entire elite network" as they thought he would be a "puppet" due to his "pro-Nazi father." However, he rebelled against the elite's wishes.
It's ironic, as Obama started his presidency much the same as Kennedy, even reminding me of him in some ways, but the current president made an abrupt turn one year after taking office. Many people noticed this and commented on it as well.
According to the film, Obama has become the most Wall Street president in U.S. history, with his appointment book reflecting this leaning. The film states, "It is the most extreme Wall Street administration we’ve ever had" and "no one else counts for anything else under Obama." It's a shame, because the president started off with good goals that have now become corrupted.

Christianity And Race Relations

Christianity and race relations go hand in hand. God loves all races and as Christians we should have the same values. There is no room for racism in the faith. Christianity was built on the principles of love, hope and unity in Christ, regardless of color. When people focus on color, it is as a means to divide, when the love of God unites us in the faith.

Atheists Sue Over Cross At September 11th Memorial Site

Construction workers praying at World Trade Center site
Angry atheists have sued over a cross at the September 11th memorial site in New York. For centuries, the cross has been a symbol of hope, love and redemption for billions of people and it is unkind that anyone would seek to attack such a positive gesture at a site of suffering.
New York needs to start anew with healing from the wounds created by the terrorist atrocity that took place in their world famous city. What better way than an age old symbol of new beginnings, love and forgiveness. With so much negativity in the world, it is sad that a group of atheists would seek to turn their time, money and attention to this, rather than devoting those energies to charity.

9/11 Cross: Bloomberg Defends Religious Displays at WTC Museum
Sun, Jul. 31 2011 02:22 PM EDT - In his weekly radio address, Bloomberg responded to a lawsuit filed by a group of atheists seeking to remove the WTC cross display from a memorial commemorating those who died in the Sept. 11 attacks.
While the New York City mayor said the atheists had a "right to sue," he explained why the inclusion of religious symbols at the 9/11 museum should be allowed. "A lot of people looked to religion for strength after the attack," said Bloomberg, who is named as one of the defendants in the suit filed by American Atheists...

Spotlight Saturday - Amy Whinehouse

Spotlight Saturday

 




The soulful sultry voice of brit born Amy Whinehouse has been stifled long before its time as the 27 year old, best known for her old school sound and amazing contralto vocals was found dead this afternoon 4:00 UK time, in her home in Camden, London.  The cause of her passing remains 'unexplained' however, it's no secret that the young singer had an ongoing history with drugs & alcohol.  Whinehouse gained popularity in the UK several years before she came on the scene in America with her second album titled, 'Back To Black' in 2006.  Ironically, it wasn't until 2007, with her hit song 'Rehab' that she rose to fame here in the states.  Besides being noted for her vocal abilities, Amy was the muse to fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld.  She wasn't just the beehive, eyeliner and tattoos, she was an amazing talent who had the ability to infuse jazz, r&b and soul into every song she sang.
