During the process of ‘exhuming’ various hidden Vatican files that relate to the various yet to be revealed sex offenders within the Catholic Church, members of the International Law Compliance Forum (ILCF) have stumbled across some rather interesting and indeed disturbing instances of the Vatican, and the now Pope Cardinal Ratzinger in particular, hiding information about cases of sex abuse and pedophilia within the Catholic Church.

After two weeks of electioneering, there are signs of desperation within the Australian Labor Party after the Australian public appears to begin to see through the ALP’s cheap and nasty tactics which began by the various factions within the party, and coup leader Gillard in particular, deposing Kevin Rudd as Prime Minister and by doing so in a particularly nasty fashion, so raising serious voter doubts and indeed more than a few ‘second thoughts’ about electing Gillard and her co-coup plotters as Australia’s Government on 21 August.

Sex workers forced to save the world from financial crises
Prostitution isn't the world's oldest profession without a reason.

CATHOLIC CHURCH OFFICIALS. ARREST AND INVESTIGATION WARRANTS LIKELY.
The International Law Compliance Forum (ILCF) has urged countries with instances of child-and sex abuse allegations to immediately begin proceedings against offenders and their protectors.












Hostages of Fortune
Superstition is just so much so much claptrap. Mumbo jumbo that has no place in the modern world, so scientists think. Why touch wood or throw spilt salt over your left shoulder when these actions serve no useful purpose? For many people, whatever science might say, there are more things in heaven and earth than we can possibly know, and it's better to be safe than sorry.












THE POPE. HE SHOULD GO AND GO NOW.
Ah yes, another week of religious upheavals within the catholic religion and how wonderful it is to see what can only be described as an unaccountable, greedy lot of pedophiles and their protectors go down in a screaming heap having to defend the indefensible and not making a very good job of it.












Lessons in Economy: My Debt is Bigger than Yours
Is it just me or have we really become a society where we don't have anything to brag about anymore, discussing our debts in the bar with our friends, the one with with bigger debt always wins the argument.

This week's 7 Top Stories in Sports

HIGHWAY ROBBERY. AUTHORS AND WRITERS RIPPED-OFF
It is so sad to see people with obvious talents being ripped-off by crooks, charlatans, dodgy individuals and companies and other forms of low-life who prey on individual lack of legal knowledge and weaknesses in terms of contracts and so-called marketing practices that often amount to nothing more than theft and, in the more extreme cases, fraud.












THE MIRACLE OF ISRAEL'S ECONOMIC DISINTEGRATION
In the past three days, I was fortunate enough to get the inside economic dope on Israel from two close women friends, Ada, who just returned from a trip there and Gemma, my long-time friend who visited me from Israel. What was uncanny is that both women told about the same stories.












GOD IS DEAD. HE IS NO MORE. HE IS KAPUT.
There is no such thing as church law, sharia law or any other religious law. The law of the land, Government law, or International law applies. Religious entities simply do not have the legal power or authority to create or apply laws.












What does an atheist do once he has lost faith in himself?
Even though I could be considered an atheist or agnostic, every once in a while talking about religion like it was some sort of a mental illness, I do believe faith is important in our lives, independent of whether you believe in god or anyone else. Simply the blind faith that causes wars, intolerance, the faith that says you are right and I am not, the faith that makes some people morons, that's the faith I do not get.

I would like to propose that religious beliefs be placed in the DSM as a category of mental illness for the following reasons

Twittering: I'm not that interesting
I've been listening about twitter for a while, and decided to give it a try... here's my insight on it












Land of the Lost
Beyonce, Paris and Nicole, on a routine exhibition, wore the largest sunglasses ever known. High and vapid, It struck their brain daft (insert screams here), and plunged them down to make them look real slow. To the Land of the Lost. To the Land of the Lost. To the Land of the Lost.

Slide Your Way To Success: Creative Workspaces for the Easily Amused

Creativity Requires Discipline

The "Coffee Lid Sip Hole Plug Stopper Starbucks Lid" or (C.L.S.H.P.S.S.L. for short)
In this high paced society it is nice to see that consumers aren't the only ones who are so wired that they can't even stop to think. Some of the most successful businesses are so fast passed with their product development that they forget to stop and actually ask if a product is necessary to develop. Starbucks has perhaps been partaking a little too much of their own product to slow down and realize that this little seemingly ingenious invention is nothing short of ridiculous.












I'm At MY Service!!!
Today businesses have implemented creative technology that actually makes you an employee minus all the benefits such as being paid or participating in the health plan. Furthermore, they have cleverly tricked you into thinking this is what you want by providing you with sub-par service for years. People are singing the praises of Self-Checkout technology and the words go something like, "CHA CHING!!! CHA CHING!!!" However, the grocery store wrote the lyrics.

Obama and the Liberal Personality
Party loyalty and personality. Where does Obama rank?












Finding joy and comfort after the death of a loved one
For most people death is something that invokes fear, sadness and the idea that life is over and they will never be the same. The idea of a loved one passing away is such a devastating idea that many talk about in hushed tones so as not to bring it on their family.












A Minority of One
I’m not on the Obama train. I’m close enough to the tracks that I can feel the whoosh of the train as it careens by me - my hair gets tousled, my clothes blow back - but onboard, I am not.












The Agnostic Pulpit: The Unmentionable Minority
Discrimination in the United States goes on.












Lessons from the Road: Never Trust a Man named Gator
My father liked to take us on car trips - always leaving at the godforsaken time of 4am - heading north, mostly, and landing, sometimes, in Canada. Pops liked that Canada had few restrictions on fireworks. Every July 4th we would leave the country and go to Canada so the old man could blow off a few rockets.












The United Nations - Time for Reform or Call in The Receivers

Using sex to sell products - are we taking things too far?

The Big Three and the Failure of Auto-eroticism
Chrysler, Ford and GM have run out of tricks. The sexy American automobile is now an over-powered, over-weight and over-priced old hag. And now they want 34 billion dollars worth of lipstick for their pig.












Sex, Sex, and more Sex!
Moreover, in the final analysis, it’s not so much sex that sells, but the promise or the allure of it. Advertisers and psychologists have been studying and examining sex in advertising for many years and know what to show and what not to show. The object is not so much to expose boobs, penises and pubic hair, but to create the impression the buyer is desirable if they buy the product.












Alms For The Love Of Ella
For many people, sexual intercourse is simply masturbation by proxy. One of the most ridiculous, and degrading euphemisms in American usage is, "making love", a reference to doing the Hokey Pokey. In the words of the famous song, "What's love got to do with it?"












Sex Sells Sex
