Horrific scenes as British-born worshipper tears out both eyes in Mass with his BARE HANDS | Mail Online

Religion Vs. Common Sense

About a century or two ago, the Pope decided that all the Sikhs had to leave Italy. Naturally there was a big uproar from the Sikh community. So the Pope made a deal. He would have a religious debate with a member of the Sikh community.

If the Sikh won, the Sikhs could stay.

If the Pope won, the Sikhs would leave.

The Sikhs realized that they had no choice. So they picked a middle-aged man named Harbinder Singh to represent them. Harbinder asked for one condition to the debate - neither side would be allowed to talk.

The Pope agreed.

The day of the great debate came.

Harbinder Singh and the Pope sat opposite each other for a full minute.

Then the Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers.
Harbinder looked back at him and raised one finger.

The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head.
Harbinder pointed to the ground where he sat.

The Pope pulled out a wafer and a glass of wine.
Harbinder pulled out an apple.

The Pope stood up and said,
"I give up. This man is too Good. The Sikhs can stay."

An hour later, the cardinals were gathered around the Pope asking him what had happened.

The Pope said, "First I held up three fingers to represent the Holy Trinity.
He responded by holding up one finger to remind me that there was still One God common to both our religions.

Then, I waved my finger around me to show him that God was all around us.
He responded by pointing to the ground and showing that God was also right here with us.

Then,

I pulled out the wine and wafer to show that God absolves us from our sins.
He pulled out an apple to remind me of original sin.

He had an answer for everything. What could I do?"

Meanwhile, the Sikh community had crowded around Harbinder Singh.

"What happened?" they asked.

"Well," said Harbinder,

"First he said to me that the Sikhs had three days to get out of here.
I told him not one of us was leaving.

Then he told me that this whole city would be cleared of Sikhs.
I let him know that we were staying right here."

"Yes, and then???" asked the crowd.

"I don't know", said Harbinder,
"He took out his lunch, and I took out mine!"

On Critique & Hypocrisy

Crititque according to Wikipedia: "Critique is a method of disciplined, systematic analysis of a written or oral discourse. Critique is commonly understood as fault finding and negative judgement, but it can also involve merit recognition, and in the philosophical tradition it also means a methodical practice of doubt. The contemporary sense of critique has been largely influenced by the Enlightenment critique of prejudice and authority, which championed the emancipation and autonomy from religious and political authorities. Critique is an accepted format of written and oral debate."

Critique seems to me -in general life as I've witnessed- to be nothing more than one displaying negativity on that which said person never has undergone or experienced (with or without ability).

People think, people do, either one has a capacity to do that which gratifies and lives up to each person's expectation.

In comes someone who has criticism towards something that he/she dislikes.

If life consists of nothing more than getting up, going to work, have a drink or two, have kids, tend to your garden (if you're lucky to have one, if not to your common house plant), watch TV & going back to bed and feel disdain over all you may or may not have accomplished negativity is triggered towards someone/something not to one's liking.

If life consists of a daily struggle for survival your end justifies your means BUT criticism comes from another perspective towards the aformentioned person in that 'they have everything' and so have nothing to complain about.

If one is a public figure which upholds a standard and/or example (be it in music, movies, politics etc.), brutal, justified/unjustified critique is part of your everyday life from persons not in that position in that 'they have the 'freedom' to do anything' unknowing they camp with the same bullshit as the latter two.

Misconception (linking to jealousy and unhappiness) is a primary mover in any such cases. Meaning that, in every walk in life someone is displeased toward another about which way they do or say things.

The most important question (ever) is Why?

Life is made up of the most wonderful and horrible experiences. As such, to make the best out of either is to accomplish to a better end. Yet the need to contradict, revolt, and show contempt for anything that's not to one's liking is immeasurable. But to have gratitude, respect (if earned), and be graceful as an upstanding individual seems to be a hard and mostly forced quality.

Hypocrisy steps in.

Hypocrisy according to Wikipedia: "Hypocrisy is the state of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, ideals, thoughts, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy involves the deception of others and is thus a kind of lie.

And Jung on the General Hypocrisy of Man

"C. G. Jung a few times referred to the hypocrisy of people who are not aware of the dark or shadow-side of their nature.

Every individual needs revolution, inner division, overthrow of the existing order, and renewal, but not by forcing them upon his neighbors under the hypocritical cloak of Christian love or the sense of social responsibility or any of the other beautiful euphemisms for unconscious urges to personal power (Jung, 1966:5).

It is under all circumstances an advantage to be in full possession of one's personality, otherwise the repressed elements will only crop up as a hindrance elsewhere, not just at some unimportant point, but at the very spot where we are most sensitive. If people can be educated to see the shadow-side of their nature clearly, it may be hoped that they will also learn to understand and love their fellow men better. A little less hypocrisy and a little more self-knowledge can only have good results in respect for our neighbor; for we are all too prone to transfer to our fellows the injustice and violence we inflict upon our own natures (Jung, 1966:par. 28).

In New Paths in Psychology (1916) Jung pointedly referred to the "hypocritical pretenses of man".

Dream-analysis above all else mercilessly uncovers the lying morality and hypocritical pretences of man, showing him, for once, the other side of his character in the most vivid light (Jung, 1966:par. 437)."

Hypocrisy to me seems nothing more than vicarious living through someone else's belief systems (a sheep?) and -though having ability- keeps to his/herself for fear of being criticised(?).

Thus having nothing to show for and achievement is lacking yet being of opinion that 'if I had what they would have, I'd accomplish the same if not more...' is what the misguided hypocrite would live by so as to keep his/her pride intact. It runs deep, very deep. Daily interactions with the human animal is proof of that!

By and large, if unchecked I'd say everybody I cross nowadays is the most critical hypocrite (compulsive liar) that ever lived. Always stories and anecdotes about how 'they' are the ones doing it wrong. If heard too many times you start to wonder: Who are 'they'?

They are them, you, me, everyone. In everyone's eyes everyone's wrong... except yourself (and the one you're talking to to point this out who maybe agrees with you by nodding yet can't wait for you to shut up!); a masochistic tendency towards righteousness. So who's right? Same with religion. There are so many out there. Who's right?

For example, if your in a room of people and one table is talking about how they or 'some people' are wrong and the next table is saying the same, who are they talking about? I'll tell you, they're talking about each other!

It comes to the point where you have to decide if you want to be a hermit or join one of the many clans with innumerable opinions about 'them'. Of course, that is, if you were ever aware or noticed that this is how humans interact...

Being part of anything is ussually a lament song of a weak and unimaginative mind; the need to belong to something; anything. Being left out is a no no, having a will is even a greater 'sin'. Why...?

Conclusion: If you have critique it's probably because you're an hypocrite. Said flat out, you're an asshole. Remember what Dirt Harry said in The Dead Pool?: "Opinions are like assholes... everbody's got one." And in this case everybody is one too.

'Dr Death' Jack Kevorkian's artwork to go up for auction... including one painting where he used his own blood

He was nicknamed 'Dr Death' for helping dozens of people commit suicide in the 1990s and spent eight years in prison for second-degree murder.
