MEDJUGORJE | POSTAGE STAMP HAS SMELL OF ROSES...????

MEDJUGORJE SMELL OF ROSES AND CHEMOSENSORY DISORDER

 

..concerning the dubious apparitions at MEDJUGORJE we are told by the CHurch in its official proclamation that NOTHING SUPERNATURAL is occuring in regards apparitions at the place of MEDJUGORJE..

 

..yet we see many pundits refuse to listen to reason since the GOSPA has told us that we must live from the heart..or through the will without use of the intellect which is a mutually exclusive logical impossibility... for we need the use of reason to lead the heart  or the will into the right arena of faith in a prudent manner... this is called the gift of counsel or a supernatural aid to the reason and is a gift of the Holy Spirit....

 

yet at MEDJUGORJE we have people grasping for apparent supernatural events without ever looking at other possibilities...

 

 

..now most recently we have the scent of roses related to a postage stamp which has been issued out of MEDJUGORJE...which gives the faithful the wrong impression regarding MEDJUGORJE..that is this place is full of supernatural manifestations which of course has never been validated by the CHurch itself in one occaision which is telling...

 

..also if a person ever had such an experience of smelling roses at MEDJUGORJE...

 

..medical science has a plausible explanation and this would be called a smell and taste disorder related to chemosensory sensory perception dysfunction...

 

 

according to JOHNS HOPKINS Medical health library

 

"

The loss of the senses of smell (anosmia) and taste (ageusia) are the most common chemosensory disorders.

The reduced ability to smell (hyposmia) or to taste sweet, sour, bitter, or salty substances (hypogeusia) are also common.

In other disorders of the chemosenses, odors, tastes, or flavors may be misread or distorted, causing a person to detect an unpleasant odor or taste from something that is normally pleasant to taste or smell. These disorders are important because they can have a significant impact on quality of life and be a sign of underlying disease.
........
Abnormalities in taste and smell can accompany or indicate the existence of diseases or conditions, such as:

• Obesity
• Diabetes
• Hypertension
• Malnutrition
• Degenerative diseases of the nervous system, such as:
  
  • Parkinson's disease
  • Alzheimer's disease
  • Multiple sclerosis"
   
...so one may see through the use of REASON that when someone claims they haved smelled roses from a postage stamp or a religious artifact which coincidentally arrived from MEDJUGORJE there can be suitable explanation based in reality....if that stamp or artifact had not been impregnated artificially..

..yet the MEDJUGORJE pundits like the petulant children they are do not give up...when it comes to turning reality inside out in order to cause confusion within the CHURCH and by reaching up to God through disobedience they do not understand the necessity of God pushing us down through humility in order to be raised up through the triumph of Jesus who was himself pushed down in humility...

..in order for us to follow the divine master we must first allow ourselves to be pushed down in humility..and this can only be found through obedience to rightful Church authority...which at MEDJUGORJE may be found in the office of the Good Bishop..who has stated time and again that nothing supernatural is occurring which the CHurch has concurred with his statements...

 




..yet the pundits of MEDJUGORJE will not bow in humility..they will not follow Jesus in his way of the cross..when Jesus fell this symbolized in an anagogical sense the humanity of Jesus bowing under the harsh orders of God through humility and obedience..yet the pundits at MEDJUGORJE will not bow..and they will have nothing to do with humility or obedience..yet they want to feel all the beautiful fragrances and feel paradise within..yet they hate the cross of CHrist and they want nothing to do with it....we see from this exposition of their inward being that the spirituality they have drawn from Medjugorje is false.....and repugnant to the way of the Cross which Jesus has shown us.....

..& so friend in the Spirit of the Cross...judge wisely...and go with good counsel on the way of the Cross that Jesus has deigned for all his true lovers to follow...

..let us all judge ourselves according to the precepts of Holy Mother CHurch so that we may arrive together at heaven in unity....amen

MEDJUGORJE UPDATE | GOD IS NOT A BODY...

MEDJUGORJE... GOD IS NOT A BODY

 

...From the Summa Contra Gentiles of Thomas Aquinas we have Chapter 20- God is not a Body..

 

 

from his disputations we see how those people who believe that wisdom  dwells in the bodily refreshment of apparitions of those things which are divine..such are greatly deceived since God is not a body..God is a spirit and those who wish to love him with the naked intention of the total dispensation of their will would do well to seek God in SPIRIT and TRUTH..through obedience to the precepts of his CHurch and those agents which he has vested with his authority....

 

from the Summa Contra Gentiles

 

[2] Every body, being a continuum, is composite and has parts. But, as we have shown, God is not composite, and is, therefore, not a body.

 

[3] Again, everything possessed of quantity is in a certain manner in potency. For a continuum is potentially divisible to infinity, while numbers can be increased to infinity. But every body has quantity and is therefore in potency. But God is not in potency, being pure act, as has been shown. Therefore, God is not a body.

 

[9] Again, no infinite power is a power in a magnitude. But the power of the prime mover is an infinite power. Therefore, it is not in any magnitude. Therefore, God, Who is the prime mover, is neither a body nor a power in a body

 

[11] That the power of the first mover is infinite is proved thus. No finite power can move in an infinite time. But the power of the first mover moves in an infinite time because the first motion is endless. Therefore, the power of the prime mover is infinite. The first proposition is proved thus. If the finite power of some body moves in an infinite time, a part of that body, having a part of the power, will move in a shorter time; for the greater the power of a mover, the more it will be able to keep up its motion in a longer time. Thus, the aforementioned part will move in a finite time, and a greater part will be able to move in a longer time. Thus, as we add to the power of the mover, we shall always add to the time according to the same proportion. But after a certain addition has been made, the addition will reach the quantity of the whole or even exceed it. So, too, an addition of time will reach the quantity of time in which it moves the whole. But the time in which it moved the whole was said to be infinite. Therefore, a finite time will measure an infinite time—which is impossible

 

[30] No motion, furthermore, which is from a corporeal mover can be continuous and regular, because in local motion a corporeal mover moves by pulling and pushing. Now, what is pulled or pushed is not uniformly disposed towards its mover from the beginning to the end of the motion, since at times it will be nearer and at other times farther away. Thus, no body can move with a continuous and regular motion. But the first motion is continuous and regular, as is proved in Physics VIII [7]. Therefore, the mover of the first motion is not a body.

 

 

..these are just a few of the many arguments  Aquinas gives to show that God is  pure spirit not contained within any body...

 

..true it is easier for the human mind to construct through the imagination forms of God to aid one in directing their devotion to a particular attribute of God..or even to remind one of those we love such as a Mother or a Father figure..however if we are to love in a more chaste sense then we will abandon the notion that God is a body and that the refreshment one recevies from  spectres and apparitions only prove to put obstacles between  our being and the TRUTH and the secundum quid EVIDENCE of what  God is...

 

..by chasing apparitions we put barriers between ourselves and God ..yet many are deceived at MEDJUGORJE since they have not been educated correctly in the spirit...we must seek God in spirit and abide by the precepts of Holy Church.....

 

...in order to Love God we must Love in humility and Obedience and through poverty of spirit which is abnegation of the will...so that it is God doing the willing..and this is how we put off the old person and put on the new person in CHrist... amen

MEDJUGORJE | TEARS OF BLOOD???

MEDJUGORJE TEARS OF BLOOD...SUPERNATURAL OR STRESS HAEMOLACRIA??

...The physiologic phenomenon of weeping blood also known as Haemolacria maybe a symptom of a number of diseases or due to environmental factors or stress related which results from a hypermanic state that may induce an increased pressure within the nasal cavity...

...since the tear ducts are connected a back pressure in the nasal cavity may cause blood to spill out into the tear ducts thus producing the manifestation of tears of blood...

..so too this may be prognostic of Munchausen syndrome ..meaning such a phenomenon may be self-inflicted...there is reasonable evidence to draw this logical deduction since in the video we only see the man himself with a couple of other bystanders..away from the regular crowds...and so one could conclude that these others may be complicit to the act or accomplices...since it would be easy to stage this display in like manner...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=k0SzerGa0Mk

...after viewing the video it can be seen that a man of advanced age after traversing the steep climb  appears to collapse under his weight and we see that he is apparently weeping blood...before we can look to the supernatural we must say there appears in this case to be a logical cause...namely environmental factors such as the appreciated altitude coupled with the advanced age of the person..who knows what sort of concomitant ailments this man has...this would lead one to logically deduce that after a great deal of exertion traversing the incline his body succumbed to the rigours and he developed a severe nosebleed which led to the copious  effluviation of blood  from his eyes...

....here are a couple of medical documentations regarding haemolacria...

 “Its anatomical basis lies in the intimate connection of nose and eye via the lacrimal apparatus. An increase in pressure within the nasal cavity during epistaxis [nosebleeds] – for example, by pinching or blowing the nose, can cause retrograde flow of blood through the system and thus lead to bloody tears emerging from the ipsilateral eye. As our patient had longstanding perforation of both tympanic membranes, the blood in her nose was also able to travel retrograde via the auditory tube and middle ear into the external auditory canal. This led to the additional bleeding from the right ear”.

-Dr. M. Wiese 2003  Case study British Journal of Ophthamology

“In lack of a medical explanation for her condition, possible religious explanations have been posed. She could have an unknown disease that only she appears to be suffering from, but more skeptical views hypothesize that the case might be explained by the so called Munchausen syndrome by proxy, meaning her mother, seemingly the only one to witness her bleeding actually starting, is fabricating the story and somehow inducing the effect on the girl”.

-Rashida Khatoon (the girl who cries blood) National Geographic Documentary

“In the present case of bloody tears we could not detect any organic cause for haemolacria after complete local and systemic examination and through investigations. The presence of hysterical traits as confirmed by the consulting psychiatrist led us to label hysteria as a possible case’ of bloody tears in this case. [Other authors have] also reported cases of haemolacria in patients of hysteria but the mechanism of production of bloody tears in these patients remain obscure, so far”.

-Dr. B. Ahluwalia  Indian Journal of Ophthamology 1987 on a 15 year old girl who wept  blood

...As can be seen from the three Scientific citations above weeping blood can be linked to environmental factors which bring about an increase in pressure in the sinus cavity leading to backflow of blood into the eye through the tear duct...as well as psychologic factors such as hysteria or stress..or even someone using artificial machinations which aim to trick people into thinking that the subject is weeping tears....

..whatever is the case we must be ever vigilant and not jump to hasty conclusions since the phenomenon at MEDJUGORJE has already been censured by two successive local Bishops as well as the CDF and the ZADAR COMMISSION which stated it cannot be ascertained that anything supernatural is occurring regarding supposed apparitions....

MARIA DIVINE MERCY | ERRORS IN THE BOOK OF TRUTH??

MARIA DIVINE MERCY ERRORS IN THE BOOK OF TRUTH

 

..now we see as a direct consequence of  the libertine casual latitudinarian attitudes among Catholics ..and as a direct result of the Authority crisis in the Catholic Church we have many people fawning over uncredible private revelations....

 

..suffice to say it is not necessary to attempt to rout-out all the theological problems of MEDJUGORJE and her ilk....since common sense referenced against proper Catechetical direction tells us the problems are quite evident...yet like a wake of buzzards we see many such spurious spiritual manifestations circling the air above those hapless laity who are prone to acedia and strident self-admiration...

 

...consequently we see another spiritual medusa looming over the Horizon...

... i would just like to add this fact which i noticed after perusing the home site of Maria Divine Mercy...

 

 

DISCOUNT OFFER ON SALVATION????

 

...apparently the Good omnipotent God who through efficient causality, power and sight is able to move creation towards a good final cause through the economy of salvation...

 

..this same God cannot ensure that those who are moved to follow these messages do not have the sufficient funds to purchase the book...???????

 

..one can only be amused by the fact that the good all powerful God has a sale on his truth...

 

..this means that God's word is not sufficient in and of itself for he has to resort to a price-chop in order to get his important message for salvation through to his people....

 

..its as if God was guilty of the sin of simony..since simoniacal behaviour is characterized by exchanging supernatural treasures for wordly advantage and pecuniary benefit...for you cannot sell salvation..just as you cannot buy your soul....

 

..and therefore since God is not able to sin..since sin is defined loosely as a deficit in perfection that is due a thing if it acted according to its proper nature..God is wholly perfect so he cannot sin..he can only allow it as an abstraction of theodicy...

 

...this evidence shows that whoever is behind this scandal is in it for the money since a sale points to a barter & the insidious intentions at work here...

 

..such a person only wants to sell more books by lowering the price...

 

..God would never do this since scripture tells us salvation is FREE...

 

6] And he said to me: It is done. I am Alpha and Omega; the beginning and the end. To him that thirsteth, I will give of the fountain of the water of life, freely.

 

-Revelation 21:6 Douay Rheims

 

..this latest development proves beyond dispute this seer is false....

MEDJUGORJE | TAX INSPECTIONS.....

MEDJUGORJE | You Have Made the Father's House a Den of Thieves...

 

11] And the people said: This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee. [12] And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the chairs of them that sold doves: [13] And he saith to them: It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves. [14] And there came to him the blind and the lame in the temple; and he healed them. [15] And the chief priests and scribes, seeing the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying: Hosanna to the son of David; were moved with indignation

 

Matthew 21:11-15  Douay Rheims

 

...in an angogical sense those who sell doves signifies those who sell the Holy Spirit in an unauthorized manner..as Aquinas says in his commentary on the Gospel of St John...

 

383 This can be understood mystically in three ways. First of all, the merchants signify those who sell or buy the things of the Church: for the oxen, sheep and doves signify the spiritual goods of the Church and the things connected with them. These goods have been consecrated and authenticated by the teachings of the apostles and doctors, signified by the oxen: “When there is an abundant harvest the strength of the ox is evident” (Prv 14:4); and by the blood of the martyrs, who are signified by the sheep: so it is said for them: “We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter” (Rom 8:36): and by the gifts of the Holy Spirit, signified by the doves, for as stated above, the Holy Spirit appeared in the form of a dove. Therefore, those who presume to sell the spiritual goods of the Church and the goods connected with them are selling the teachings of the apostles, the blood of the martyrs, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Tax inspections continue in Medjugorje

Bosnia & Herzegovina tax officials continued with inspections in Medjugorje this week and imposed fines of 40,700KM ($29,000, £17,000) for 25 misdemeanours on17 taxpayers who had operated unlawfully.

The mobile inspection team reviewed hotels, guest houses and appartments. In one guest house the owner was given a deadline by when guests should leave so that all rooms and the house could be sealed

In four inspections it was discoverd that the house owners were operating without authorisation issued by the competent authority.

Also caught up in the swoop were three unregistered workers and two business owners who were issued with decisions to suspend their business operations.

In the past four weeks, 191 inspections were carried out by the tax authorities, during and outside working hours, and 233 midemeanour warrants were issued that amounted to fines of 406,300KM ($290,000, £170,000) .

In the same period 35 premises were sealed, 35 undocumented workers discovered, and in 52 cases it was found that taxpayers did not have an authorised work permit.

Inspectors also clamped down on street sales in the area of Bijakovici and seized a quantity of goods including souvenirs, fruits, honey and alcohol. The seizure brought protest from some of the sellers and police accompanying the inspection team were called upon to intervene. One person was arrested.

According to the Bosnia Herzegovina Federal Offics of Statistics, the unemployment rate is currently 44%, based on the number of people actively looking for a job as a percentage of the labour force.

 

..it is sad to see that unemployment is so high yet this does not justify fraudulent behaviour..for the end never justifies the means..this only brings chaos...ending in the obvious neglect of our moral compass which God has sewn within our souls to guide us toward him so that we reach our final cause ...

 

..if justice is the perpetual and constant will to render to each person that which is their right..then we see at MEDJUGORJE God is not receiving his justdue..namely his Authority is being ignored through the local ORdinary and this flippant disdain for authority has spilled over into the civil marketplace...let us all examine ourselves with a view to justice and charity to all so that God is glorified on earth through our acts and our desires...so that we may become a praise of his Glory....amen

 

 

MEDJUGORJE | LIES & DISOBEDIENCE.....

MEDJUGORJE A FALSE AND COUNTERFEIT SPIRITUALITY

..the dubious spirituality attached to the MEDJUGORJE phenonmenon has as its efficient cause direct disobedience to Church Canons and direct precepts and proclamations of Church Agents...

..however people still flock to this unauthorized place owing to a collective hysteria which owing to pastoral directives of the Church has confused the laity into believing God has blessed the contempt of the seers and the promoters of this schismatic rale against Church norms and procedures for discerning private revelation....

..here is a video which may help those true lovers of God who wish to discern better the action of God in the mystical numinous dark light of faith..to which all authentic mystics are drawn to through grace and wish to be taken up and consumed in the beloved as sacred moths.. so the saying goes....

..in girim imus nocte et comsumimur igni...

we enter the circle at night and are consumed by fire

..that is by the night of faith we are consumed by the fire which consumes but never burns and like a cautery tempers our emotions so that we search God out in spirit and not in the flesh...

from the cloud of unknowing we have an exposition to those who wish to apprentice in the true mystical life
