Congratulations, You are Going to be No.1

(Two million people are expected to worship at this shrine during the first three days of the year, though it was ranked No. 9 among all the Japanese shrines in terms of the turnout for January 2008.

Congratulations, You are Going to be No.1


Now everybody is going to reach the final goal of Year 2008 as top runners.

Everybody on the earth is the number-one runner to finish in the 365-day (366-day, if you like) race all through the year of 2008.

So, congratulations, since we are on the same planet Earth, though it allows Japan to enjoy the first sunrise of 2009 ahead of any other major countries.

Nonetheless, we are going to hit the 0:00 A.M. of January 1, 2009 at the same time as the No.1 runners in the historical term.


January 1 for Japan

Yes, January 1 is the holiest day for Japan and the Japanese people.

So, please don’t bother Japanese on January 1.


Six Largest Religions in the World

There are largely two worlds on the earth in terms of religion.
The West: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam
The East: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Japanese Spirituality

Marxism and socialism belong to the West.

Japanese spirituality mainly consists of Japanese Buddhism and Shintoism.



Samuel P. Huntington

Mr. Huntington (April 18, 1927–December 24, 2008) was an American genius.

He was so, since he admitted the glory and the power of Japan in a manner no other professors, scholars, and pundits of America can simply do.

------------------------------------------------
Huntington expanded "The Clash of Civilizations?" to book length and published it as The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order in 1996. The article and the book posit that post–Cold War conflict would most frequently and violently occur because of cultural rather than ideological differences. That, whilst in the Cold War, conflict likely occurred between the Capitalist West and the Communist Bloc East, it now was most likely to occur between the world's major civilizations — identifying seven, and a possible eighth: (i) Western, (ii) Latin American, (iii) Islamic, (iv) Sinic (Chinese), (v) Hindu, (vi) Orthodox, (vii) Japanese, and (viii) the African. This cultural organization contrasts the contemporary world with the classical notion of sovereign states. To understand current and future conflict, cultural rifts must be understood, and culture — rather than the State — must be accepted as the locus of war. Thus, Western nations will lose predominance if they fail to recognize the irreconcilable nature of cultural tensions.

------------------------------------------------

Why are other professors, scholars, and pundits of America afraid of Japan subconsciously while genuine Judaists and Muslims are not?

This can be one of the themes for 2009, though even Samuel P. Huntington looks like an amateur for matters of Japan and the God.


Reviewing 2008

The most important theme for 2009 is not CO2 but agriculture, just like it was Wall Street but not the Beijing Olympic Games for 2008.

From the Tibet issue to the great earthquake in the southern China, and the Beijing Olympic Games, every greedy man and woman on Wall Street was planning to get big money from the Chinese economy.

Yet, that criminal scheme on the crude oil prices triggered the avalanche multiplication of the subprime loan-contaminated financial goods on Wall Street.

Indeed, the focus was not on China but Wall Street in 2008.

Mr. Barack Obama has become the Person of the Year; but it is rather a byproduct.

It is so, since good-natured and hard-working people of America found that Wall Street is not their friend but an enemy even if GM is not.

Analysis: Achieving long-term quiet

After a successful start to Operation Cast Lead, the question now is: What should the next stage be?
That depends on the goal. What do we want to achieve?
…
But if we do not consider this to be satisfactory, and want to destroy Hamas's entire military capability, and even to bring down its rule - as several ministers have suggested - then a wide-ranging ground operation that essentially conquers all or most of Gaza is necessary.

This is certainly possible from a military point of view, but involves a higher price and greater risk. The price is mainly in terms of casualties. The risk is increased uncertainty as regards the possibility of attaining the goal without running into further complications, including the escalation of fighting to additional fronts.
…
One of the most obvious problems of the Second Lebanon War was the confused definition of its goals, which were exaggerated at the start, changed frequently and were understood differently by various echelons.

It seems as though many of the lessons of the Second Lebanon War are now being successfully implemented. It is highly important that this central lesson, too - clear definition of the goal - is not neglected.

-----------------------------------------------------

Israel has to change its goal, since the God is not pleased.

As six million European Judaists were killed in Europe during WWII due to shameful unbelief, errors and transgression of Europeans, European nations today cannot blame Israel.

As the military super-power, the U.S., has been in a tie-up with Egypt and Saudi Arabia, no elite Arabs will blame the U.S. for its extreme support for Israel.

As Israel is equipped with F-16 jets and other high-tech weapons, including nuclear bombs, no Arabs think they can win in war against Israel.

However, the goal for Israel must not be to consolidate its national base through routinely one-side battles with neighboring Arabs for half a century or so more.

Its ultimate goal, namely carrying out Israel’s plan to fight the 100-Year-War for Re-Establishment of the New Judaist Kingdom to the end, must be probably reviewed, reconsidered, and altered, most probably, since the God is not pleased.

In that case, Israelis had better leave Jerusalem and Palestine again, but on their initiatives this time. They can leave it for New York and the U.S.

In that case, New York can be renamed New Jerusalem. The U.S. Constitution will be amended to include some pro-Judaism articles, such as “America will forever protect Judaists as well as Christians and Muslims in addition to other citizens.”

In this case, the Vatican should move to Jerusalem in Palestine with a Judaistic pope.

************************************

Now as I wrote this way, the God might not be so unpleased.

By the way, has any Judaist written a report on his/her uninterrupted family line or family history up to the present day since his or her ancestors departed Jerusalem in the first century heading for Europe?

Or put more graphically, can any Judaist living in Israel today display their family pedigree such as the one of the Imperial Family of Japan that has 125 emperors in it, though Benedictus XVI is the 265th Pope?

Indeed, Israelis and Judaists today had better try to be a core of American citizens in the 22nd century.

I will not be even surprised if the U.S. should be divided in the 22nd century in a religious term between the West and the East at the Mississippi River: the West for Japanese Buddhism and the East for Judaism.

Now Main Incident of 2008

(Mt. Fuji of this morning; click to enlarge)



Now Main Incident of 2008


Now in less than a week to the new year 2009, the history has claimed its status as a major player on the earth with a massive military movement around Israel, just like 2000 years ago.

The Christmas holiday of 2008 is now a memory of a long time ago. Here in Japan preparing for the New Year holidays, people are travelling back to their home towns, namely their birth places or their ancestors’ homes, in local provinces from Tokyo and other major cities through express ways, airlines, and Shinkansen Super-Express railroads.

Indeed, the holiday season is being ended in Europe and America, while Japan has in earnest started to prepare for them, with the end of Christmas.

In either case, the year 2008 is almost finished for people, but the true historic incident in 2008 has just begun around Israel.

It began with rocket attacks by Hams in January 2008, totaling up to 3,000 humble missiles fired to the territory of Israel to date.

Now, the crude oil price crisis has settled down; the Wall Street debacle has taken a short breath; Mr. Barack Obama has been chosen as US President, and the 2008 Christmas is fading away; the time might come for the history.

It is so since Israel has been on campaign of the 100-Year-War for Independence or Re-Establishment of the Modern Kingdom of Judaists.

Gaza sends missiles, Israel sends money

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak was taken to task by other members of the government on Thursday over his decision to allow the bulk transfer of $25 million from the Palestinian Authority in Samaria to the Hamas regime in the Gaza Strip.
Other senior government ministers said the decision simply made no sense in light of escalating terrorist rocket fire from Gaza on communities in southern Israel.
Barak has come under harsh criticism for failing to order the kind of crushing military response he regularly threatens every time a barrage of rockets is fired from Gaza.

In related news, Israel's Channel 2 News reported on Wednesday that the Israeli air force has changed the flight paths of civilian passenger plane flying near the Gaza Strip for fear of anti-aircraft missiles believed to be in the possession of Gaza-based terrorists.

Israel's Ben Gurion International Airport lies only about 50 miles from Gaza, and planes leaving and arriving sometimes fly much closer.

The Biggest News in 2008

(Mt. Fuji and the Tokyo Tower of Yesterday)


The Biggest News in 2008


They reported that Mr. Kim Jong-Il, the top leader of North Korea is still ill in bed, losing the commanding power of the nation.

It was also reported that a female North Korean spy arrested in South Korea a few months ago tried to commit suicide in a prison yesterday or so, though her life has been saved.

It is said that North Korea of today somehow resembles the Empire of Japan during and before the Second World War.

In those days, the paradigm of samurai ethics still prevailed in Japan, especially within the Imperial Government and its Army and Navy.

One of gravely distorted features of the paradigm, as so degraded in decades before WWII, is that as samurai-spirited officers and officials are always prepared to die for the nation in a war or any emergency, the society must forgive their minor errors and transgressions.

However, if a samurai gets used to enjoying drinking, eating, and entertainment or a family life, he will surely lose in a battle and run away from the front for his life.

Mr. Kim Jong-Il seems to have enjoyed drinking, eating, and entertainment or a family life too much to command the nation on the quasi-war basis.

Yet, the biggest news in 2008 for Japan is that Ms. Megumi Yokota has not returned to her parents living around Tokyo, though she was forcibly and unlawfully abducted by North Korean spies decades ago, when she was a junior high school student, from a local town of the Japan's mainland facing the Sea of Japan.


(It is cold around Tokyo today. Nonetheless, the New Year holidays in Japan are going to start. As for me, nothing changes. Probably, I will watch NHK satellite TV programs or other cable TV channel programs more often than usual.

So, nothing changes around Tokyo.)

SECTION I: Japanese Obamas

There were two brothers who both assumed the Japanese premiership. The elder one, Nobuske Kishi, was Prime Minister of Japan between 1957 and 1960. (Former Prime Minister Mr. Shinzo Abe is a grandson of Nobuske Kishi.) The younger brother, Eisaku Sato, kept the prime mister post between 1964 and 1972; he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1974.

However, in the future we may have other two brothers the both of whom may take the position of the Japan’s Prime Minister.

KUNIO HATOYAMA (The Liberal Democratic Party)
Mr. Kunio Hatoyama became Minister of Justice of the Fukuda Cabinet in 2007. He was also chosen as Minister of Public Management, Home Affairs, Posts and Telecommunications of the current Aso Cabinet three months ago.

He graduated top of the class from the faculty of law, the University of Tokyo, to be a secretary of the notorious politician Kakuei Tanaka, the then Prime Minister of Japan.

Mr. Kunio Hatoyama is regarded as the strongest supporter for current Prime Minister Mr. Taro Aso, though they belong to different factions within the LDP.

Interestingly, Mr. Kunio Hatoyama once challenged Mr. Shintaro Ishihara in the Tokyo Metropolitan Gubernatorial Election in vain.

http://www.hatoyamakunio.org/


YUKIO HATOYAMA (The Democratic Party of Japan)
Mr. Yukio Hatoyama is one year older than his brother Mr. Kunio Hatoyama.

Their grandfather was one of Japanese Prime Ministers during unquiet times after WWII; and their father was an elite bureaucrat and politician, too.

Mr. Yukio Hatoyama is the actual founder of the Democratic Party of Japan, since he seems to have advantaged financial resources.

If the DPJ comes to power after the next general election, Mr. Yukio Hatoyama will take the second influential post in the possible Ozawa Cabinet, since he is now No.2 in the DPJ next to Mr. Ichiro Ozawa.

As Mr. Yukio Hatoyama once specialized in engineering in universities, he might become a unique type of prime ministers of Japan, if he should be able to get enough support among his colleagues and voters.

SECTION II: This Week’s Business Model

In the United States, an unprecedented economic recession has hit not only the financial sector and the automobile sector but also the media industry, including TV interests.

In Japan, the TV stations also face a financial slump, though publicly-funded NHK might have no such a sense of the crisis, since its announcers always deliver news in a bright voice as probably instructed technically.

When a government gives a broadcast license to a company or an organization, it must stipulate that a few hours a day of its broadcasting time must be assigned to other company or organization.

The 100% exclusive use of a specific radio frequency must be avoided.

Therefore, any TV station licensed for using a certain radio frequency should transfer, at least for a few hours of the day, to other party who would be allowed to use the identical frequency for their own service. Even public broadcasting companies, such as Japan’s NHK, should observe the rule.

This system would pave the way for more market-oriented competition in the media industry. What's more, it must also give a chance to a party trying to address pioneering challenges in the media market. Politically, the system might also contribute to enhancement of quality of democracy.

Even an NGO or a foreign company may be allowed to join this scheme. In that case, ABC, CNN, or BBC might be allowed to use the partially assigned time-slot to broadcast their own program in Japan, though just an hour or so, on an ordinary local TV channel of ground-based broadcasting. Audiences will of course view them for free, as many sponsors and their commercials will cover the costs.

*********************************************

Let me say one thing: Toyota’s yearly net profit after tax was more than one trillion yen ($11 billion) in each of past five years, assumedly resulting in $55 billion assets in total.

(http://moneyzine.jp/article/detail/69482/)

(http://www.gamenews.ne.jp/archives/2007/05/2223868300.html )

Now it is going to suffer a 150-billion-yen ($1.6 billion) operating loss as Toyota Group, as of March 2009.

How should Toyota fire in haste so many workers in their plants, if those working in an irregular employment system belong to outside employment agencies or temporary agencies?

Toyota needs ability to launch a new business model. The auto company can venture into, for example, agriculture, forestry, fishery, or new energy development in addition to health care.

Toyota should contact any persons of good idea, including EEE Reporter.


(I heard voices, of a man and a bewitching woman, saying that it was going to take time more; but there is no time like the present. Indeed, better now than later, when hitting upon the idea of any good thing. So, I made a rare phone call somewhere. I may even send an e-mail, though it is business-related, since December in Japanese, "Shiwasu," means that even a master runs to make end meet before a new year comes.)



Mar 12:26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

The Two Gifts to Americans

The Two Gifts to Americans


Americans, historically, have received two gifts: the spirit of the Bible and the spirit of frontiers.

Based on these gifts, they could gain independence from the U.K. and Europe.

Based on these gifts, they could advance to the West, the Pacific Region, and further the Asian Continent.

Specifically, the Bible allowed for the Emancipation Proclamation and the establishment of the Obama Administration.

Specifically, the frontiers allowed for their engagement in Asia, even harboring the illusion of China.

And remarkably, America is now following the path of Alexander the Great, namely being on campaign in a region from Baghdad to Kabul.

The fall of the Roman Empire may be followed by the U.S. in the future; but, the fate of the Empire of Alexander the Great might be also followed by the U.S. in the near future.

If Americans do not make the best use of the spirit of both the Bible and the frontiers, they might be deprived of the glory realized by the spirit.

In that case, America will really fall like the Roman Empire and be doomed like the Empire of Alexander the Great in future, in my humble speculation.



(The Japanese National Diet will be prorogued until January 5, 2009. Japanese national lawmakers would, however, face strong requests from voters and tax payers for recovery of economy and enhancement of safety of the society. But, if I can take 10-day New Year holidays, I may visit Indonesia, Hawaii, and the Lincoln Memorial provided the God so wishes.)

Testimony on December 24, 2008

Testimony on December 24, 2008


Let me offer a scenario to apply to a prospective Q&A session with a future Judaistic Pope at the new Vatican in Jerusalem.

Q: Why and how did you accept the position of the Pope at the solicitation of the Vatican, though you are a Judaist?

A: It was simple. As they hesitated, I myself requested the position for the sake of mankind, although they still stick to their version of our communications as you put.

Q: Does your family tree go back to a certain Israelite of 2000 years ago? Can you name and attest all your ancestors up to the one in the era of Jesus Christ, like the Chapter 1 of Matthew?

A: Yes, I can.

Q: What about your view on St. Paul?

A: He is a Protestant. He does not need those other witnesses on Jesus, as a son of a man, since St. Paul has his own witness about the deity of Jesus. He himself is a church based on his own experiences with Jesus. In this context, from the beginning, Christianity included two parties: one for those who rely on the Gospels (St. Peter-Mark, St. Peter-Luke, St. Peter-Matthew, and St. Peter-John) and another for those who rely on their own gospel like St. Paul. The former is the Vatican and the latter is Protestantism. However, when they first established a church in ancient Rome, they had to cooperate as one.

Q: Is it absolutely necessary to be a Judaist, if not genuinely, to see God in Jesus?

A: Yes, it is. To see the God of Israel in Jesus, you have to be a Judaist, a descendant of ancient Israelites. And, the Old Testament claims that the God of Israel is God of Mankind. Therefore, as long as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam exist and until other superior religion should emerge with an absolute proof that God of Mankind has become the God of other tribe, in order to see God in Jesus you have to be a Judaist.

Q: Can the finding be expressed with words of any language mankind has today?

A: Yes. Mankind has a million ways of description and expression with a million adjectives and adverbs. You cannot tell what will happen to mankind, especially in terms of religion in a 4000-year period of time. Somebody will surely present his miracle report of finding God in a certain man someday so as to convince billions of people of his holy finding to launch a new authentic religion.

(By the way, as Mr. Masukawa, one of the three Japanese-national Nobel-Prize winning scientists of this year, proved decades ago, there are six types of quarks in this universe, but neither three nor four. Accordingly, more than one hundred types of atoms exist here and there to build a human body.)

Q: So, at least you have convinced all the leaders and executives of the Vatican of your ability and blessing in seeing God, right?

A: Yes.

Q: What did God of Mankind say to you, specifically?

A: He said I had to be a Pope at the Vatican moved to Jerusalem.

Q: So, you went to Rome and proved your holy ability and blessing to the leaders and executives of the Vatican to take up the holy seat of the Pope?

A: Yes.

Q: Is Jerusalem better than Rome?

A: Yes, since we have more Judaists here.

Q: Will you bless me on behalf of God of Mankind?

A: Read the Bible Jesus as a son of a man also read, for I do it preaching everywhere on the land of Palestine as a homeless missionary, since Jesus had no place to rest.

A: Thank you sir. Thank you. God bless you!

**************************************************

Anyway, now it is around the noon of December 24, 2008, here around Tokyo.

So, that is all for today.



(Music does not necessarily improve humanity of mankind.

However, they reported that Ever Holy Jesus sang a hymn with His Disciples. Indeed, Vatican means "VATES CINARI" (a prophet sings).

DO NOT JUDGE A MAN

(In the vicinity of a Grand Shrine which once faced the Tokyo Bay deeply getting inland 2000 years ago as seagulls even today vist it sometimes)



DO NOT JUDGE A MAN


No foreigners or strangers can feel a divine atmosphere in a precinct of any shintoism shrine in Japan.

Even no Chinese and no Koreans can share the sense of purity of his or her soul that Japanese people feel when entering a Shinto shrine.

Only Japanese know this sense. But it is not easy to have foreigners understand it through words and letters based on any skills or logic of language.

The main stream of the Japanese races consists of those who can feel this catharsis and purification of their own souls when entering a shinto shrine or a holy mountain.

Only those Japanese must be truly called "Nihon-Jin" or more specifically "Yamato-Minzoku" (the bona-fide Japanese tribe), though we have to admit other types of Japanese races for political correctness.

And, good or bad on words and deeds of bona-fide Japanese cannot be judged without knowing this unique spiritual structure.

Therefore we should not judge any Japanese, at least, on any written or even verbal witness.

Jesus Christ simply ordered not to judge anybody.


SECTION I: They are still arguing deity of Jesus

It is really nice to see that some Americans are still arguing the deity of Jesus Christ in earnest.

----------------------------------
…The only real argument that remains, is that Jesus was just a legend or myth. There is little likelihood that Jesus' claims are legend. There just wasn't enough time for any legendary development of the story to replace what really happened. For instance, we now know that the Gospels were written 30 to 50 years after the crucifixion of Jesus. More dramatically, we now date some of the early Christian creeds, proclaiming the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, to 3 to 10 years after His crucifixion. This includes Paul's letters to the Corinthians, Romans and Galatians. Finally, if Jesus' claim of deity was a myth, the early Jewish opponents of Christianity would surely have presented the fact that these claims never happened. Unlike modern skeptics, the Jewish rabbis never denied that Jesus made the claim that He was God. Instead, they called Him a liar, and tried Him for blasphemy.

Is Jesus God? The Only Answer
Is Jesus God? Once you have asked all your questions, weighed all the evidence, and tested all the arguments, you will ultimately be confronted with this question. In Mathew 16:15, Jesus put it this way, 'But who do you say that I am?' One of His disciples, Simon Peter, replied: 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' What is your reply?
http://www.allaboutjesuschrist.org/is-jesus-god-c.htm
----------------------------------

But, I will repeat here that you cannot prove if Jesus Christ is God or not based on the Gospels, since those holy books were intended not to be used as a proof of Jesus’ Deity, probably, very carefully.

The Bible was written, edited, and compiled so as not be used as a witness to Jesus being the God, though people say that Daniel prophesied Jesus would come to save Israel.

It is St. Peter who found his God or the God of Israel in Jesus.

The witness is the awe St. Peter was struck with.


SECTION II: How Witness was Relayed

Please check my drawing below, though it is still a draft version.

(Click to enlarge.)

In the above scheme, there are four persons who directly heard the witness from St. Peter. One of the four is Mark.

However, there must be some variations in St. Peter’s talk to these four of the first-level witnesses, which led to differences between the Book of St. Peter-Mark, the Book of St. Peter-Luke, the Book of St. Peter Matthew, and even the Book of St. Peter-John.


SECTION III: Why Pope Must be a Judaist

If you are not an Israelite, you cannot find the God in Jesus Christ, whether you live 2000 years ago or today.

If you are ancient Greeks or ancient Romans educated by ancient Greeks, you must feel frustrated not to be able to find God or any proof of Jesus’ deity in written witness on Jesus, say, even by St. Paul.

The proof is in the awe generated in St. Peter’s mind which could not be translated into words and letters in a manner that ancient Romans and Greeks could comprehend, since the awe was very Judaistic.

Therefore, you cannot get many believers by simply claiming that Jesus is God in the Gospels. Rather, ancient Romans and Greeks would have doubted sincerity of ancient Christians relying on poor logic and story-telling in proving the deity of Jesus.

In that case, wise Early Christians would abandon efforts to create a Gospel that could prove the deity of Jesus Christ so controversially or in vain.

Instead, they would claim that the deity of Jesus is only proved by direct inheritance of the secret through a face-to-face disclosure which started from St. Peter.

Therefore, the Vatican even today claims that Protestants cannot find God in Jesus if they only rely on the Gospels. In order to find God in Jesus, they must come to a Catholic church where a clergyman would give some portion of the proof of Jesus’ Diety through religious ceremony as instructed by the Vatican, the only successor of St. Peter and his witness on the deity of Jesus.

Yet, though the Vatican has this secret knowledge, it has no ability to find God in Jesus by itself, since it is no more Judaistic, while St. Peter’s awe in finding God in Jesus was only possible due to his being a Judaist, namely an Israelite 2000 years ago.

So, the Vatican and Popes in these centuries have been only masters of formality and knowledge but not honest performers of St. Peter’s awe.

In summary, for the Vatican to get the ability to feel the same holy awe as St. Peter did, it must have a Judaistic Pope.

And, a Judaistic Pope must live in Jerusalem, since other Judaists have already returned to Israel since 1948.

**************************************************

But, where have other Gospels based on witnesses of eleven Disciples except St. Peter gone?

There must have been situations where our Ever-Holy Jesus and, say, James alone were talking without St. Peter anywhere around to listen to their conversations.

Jesus might have said, "Look at the sky. Without it, there is no ground, since the Spirit, from the sky, gives existence to the ground on which we stand."

But, this precious teaching has not survived the history but vanished away, since James’ Gospel was searched and destroyed by evil forces in the first century.



(That is all for today, since a stupid Japanese comedian called “Morita” is now on a TV screen. Decades ago when he put on ordinary glasses but not sunglasses, he made his first or second TV appearance, as I happened to see it around Tokyo, to present poor performance of imitating mah-jong players speaking four different pseudo-languages. Nowadays, I seldom see his regular TV performance around the noon.

Anyway, strangers do not know glory of any legends temporarily hidden in the faintly glittering mist of night.

Joh 12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Choose a Judaist as a Pope

Choose a Judaist as a Pope


In Japan, they say that medical doctors do not like to work like a hero.

They are leaving difficult, public hospitals to get a bigger income in less responsible, private medical clinics.

As both the conservative NHK and Fuji TV stations presented feature programs on this issue, the situation must be truly grave.

Choose honest and clever nurses as a new type of medical doctors. Make them a kind of assistant medical doctors by giving some training to educate them further and certify them.


SECTION I: A Pope Must be a Judaist

Our Ever Holy Lord Jesus Christ was an Israelite.

The only source for the Four Books of the Gospels, namely St. Peter, was an Israelite.

Therefore, popes we should accept must be only honest descendants of ancient Israelites, namely Judaists.

Therefore, if a Pope is not a Judaist, we cannot admit his authority.

This must be the first step for the Reformation of the Vatican.

In order to facilitate this holy Reform, the Vatican should go back to Jerusalem.

It is so, because the most significant implication of the establishment of the nation Israel in 1948 is that it is preparation for the return of the Vatican and a Pope to Jerusalem.

It is already enough that followers of Ever-Holy Jesus Christ and St. Peter show respect to the Two in Rome. They must do so now in Jerusalem, on a permanent base.


So, the new Pope will confess that he can see what his Holy Lord Jesus is, especially because he, namely the new Pope, is a Judaist like St. Peter was an Israelite, marvelling: "How can the God of Israel, namely my God, incarnate in the form of a human being, that is Jesus!"

The new Pope must be a follower of Ever-Holy Jesus Christ as a descendant of Abraham just like St. Peter was 2000 years ago.


SECTION II: Wealth the Vatican Commands

The Vatican has deeper wisdom than those new comers to history, such as Rothschilds and Rockefellers in terms of creating, operating, accumulating, and hiding wealth.

You cannot simply measure it based on figures on books, ledgers, and financial notes.
------------------------------------------------
19 April 2002
Worldly assets

• The Vatican Bank, Istituto per le Opere di Religione, manages £2bn of assets. It does not reveal its profits or dividends, which are paid directly to the Pope. It enjoys the status of a central bank and has a dealing room adorned with crucifixes and papal portraits where 20 traders work.
• Despite the Vatican's assets, including the art collection in the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel, it relies heavily on support from American dioceses.

• The Pope owns more than 1,000 apartments in Rome. The Vatican's property portfolio made a profit of 25.7bn lira in 1998, equivalent to about £10m at the time.

• The Vatican had a balance of 2.5bn lira in 1998, then worth about £1m. It had expenses of about 336bn lira (£106m) and income of about 338bn lira (£107m).
• The 2,500 officials of the Papal curia have a combined salary bill of 140bn lira (£44m).
• The 20,000 parishes in America had revenues of $7.5bn (£5.18bn) )in 2000, of which $6.5bn went to cover expenses and $1bn subsidised Catholic schools.
• In the 1980s the Vatican Bank was forced to pay $241m for its part in the collapse of Banco Ambrosiano. Roberto Calvi, who had been advising the Vatican over its dealings with the bank, was found hanging from a rope beneath Blackfriars Bridge.
• Cardinal Roger Mahony of Los Angeles, the man tipped to be the first American Pope, has been building a new cathedral for the past four years. The cost is now estimated at almost $200m.

In general, priests and clergymen do not mind befriending gangsters and Mafia members so long as they do not harass their churches or intimidate church members.

(Bad examples can be even found in Japanese churches.)

But, if priests and clergymen do not like to turn them to ordinary and harmless citizens due to issues involving big money, they are not followers of poor St. Peter at all.

So, salary of a priest or a clergyman must be zero.

Salary of a Pope must be zero.

Of course, there must be no house allowance.

It must be forbidden to enjoy a richer life than poor Israelite St. Peter had.

************************************************

What I want to emphasize is that the so-called Q Document (a postulated lost textual source for the four Gospels of the Bible) must be St. Peter himself.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_document

The four Gospels are actually four variations of St. Peter’s witness about words and deeds of his Holy Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, as the sole authority of the Gospels, the Vatican must be stationed in Jerusalem if not Galilee.

And, choose a Judaist as a new Pope, since only a Judaist can be a successor of St. Peter.

In the case, such a new Judaist Pope of the Vatican in this 21st century must be actually the "second bona-fide Pope in history, next to St. Peter."

That is all for today.

Mat 12:23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?

Mat 12:24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

Mat 12:25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:

Mat 12:26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?

Mat 12:27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.

Mat 12:28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.

Once I saw a nice Irish girl wearing a "One Million Volts"-lettered T-shirt. She had a nice boy friend, too.

They however looked like a kind of Germanic, though if they had confessed that they had marginally blood of ancient Romans, I would not have wondered.

Most of Japanese have also traits of southern Asians and northern Asians, each in himself or herself.



SECTION I: A Key to Success of the Vatican

Before Christianity was infiltrated into Europe, namely Germanic communities mainly in today’s France, Germany, and England, marriage was a matter between two families or clans.

A young man and a young woman expected to marry each other had no decisive right to say anything on their own marriage.

A young woman was obliged to move from her father’s mastery to her husband’s mastery through marriage.

This is a tradition of the Germanic society.

However, in the Roman Empire, marriage was a matter between a man and a woman. What is required for establishment of marriage is bipartite agreement between the two. Therefore, legal procedures and ceremonies were not necessary observed when a man and a woman married lawfully to be admitted by the society.

However around the 12th century, the mode of marriage changed clearly in Europe, namely Germanic communities mainly in today’s France, Germany, and England.

Through wider diffusion of Christianity, the mode of marriage was changed to be akin to that of the ancient Roman Empire.

Conversely, as Germanic women around the 12th century came to opt for individual-base marriage rather than family-relationship-base marriage, further infiltration of Christianity was driven into every corner of people’s life in Europe.

It is European women, a majority of whom have been Germanic, that allowed for the success of the Vatican in Europe due to the merit the religion had in terms of marriage.

(As for the Celtic people, I may like to deal with them later.)

Nonetheless, the Vatican had adopted a policy to be the sole master of each individual, rather than each family and clan; accordingly a marriage should be based on bipartite agreement between a man and a woman, which was so convenient for the Church.

Anyway, around the 12nd century with a new mode of marriage, the Germanic people, once regarded as barbarians living in the north of the Alps, started to step forward toward the contemporary success and glory of their civilization.



SECTION II: This Week’s Political Model

The issue is around the single-seat constituency system.

Suppose there are five constituencies and two parties A and B. From a region consisting of the five constituencies, five members of a legislative assembly are expected to be elected.

Yet, you may think one member from each constituency is rational even if the ratio of votes between two rivals is 51% to 49% in each constituency (since it is a tradition of Anglo-Saxons, isn’t it?).

The party A might win all the five constituencies with a margin of 51% to 49% in every constituency.

Or the party B might win in two constituencies by a margin of 51% to 49% in each, so Party A would have three lawmakers and Party B two, while the total votes in the region are shared by A and B as 51% and 49%. It looks indeed very reasonable.

However, it is risky. It includes a possibility of a drastic bias to happen to allow for a sweep by one party. One party can get all the five seats by accident or any uncertain factor, while the total votes in the region are shared almost evenly, say, by Party A and Party B with 52% and 48% of votes, respectively.

So, the multiple-seat constituency looks more stable and reliable to mirror a true state of voters’ choices.

For example, the Governor of Tokyo is an ex-LDP national lawmaker Mr. Shintaro Ishihara. But, the five members of the House of Councilors of the national Diet from Tokyo consist of two of the DPJ, one of the LDP, one of New Komeito Party, and one independent.

Now, my model is separation of representation of a constituency and representative’s voting discretion in a legislative assembly.

If you are a member of Party A and has been elected as the sole representative in a constituency with a voting margin of 51% to 49%, you can be surely a lawmaker representing the constituency but you are obliged to honestly reflect the choice of the voters of your constituency in your voting actions in the legislative assembly.

Specifically, you have to vote for a bill in favor of those who voted for you in a ratio of 51% but also for those who voted for your failed rival in 49%.

The share of the vote in an election must bind a representative in his/her legislative activities in the parliament or the congress.

If you are elected with the share of 99% in a certain constituency, you can act 99% for your own party; but you must also act 1% for supporters of your failed rival through your voting activities in the legislative assembly.

I call this system the separation of representation of a constituency and representative’s voting discretion in a legislative assembly.

Even President Mr. Barack Obama must act 48% for the Republicans as he represents the whole United States of America and the whole united citizens of America.

Another View on History


Now a VOA radio broadcast is telling that China is going to send its navy ships to the sea area off Somalia, though the country has kept its military forces mainly inside its own region.

There are some concerns among Japanese patriots about the Chinese military expansion bolstered by the Communism and the Sinocentrism.

The elite of the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese Government can most probably accept reality of the world and the Japanese supremacy; but the Chinese military would not do so until its capability is finally tested.

The New York Times must realize that there were two enemies for the Chinese people during WWII: the Imperial Army of Japan and the Chinese troops of both the Chinese National Party and the Chinese Communist Party, since China was at a civil war which was expanded to involve the Imperial Army of Japan in 1930's.


SECTION I: Carloman

A history textbook in Japan refers to an elder brother of Pepin III, King of the Franks, as an example of infiltration of Christianity into Europe.

-----------------------
Carloman (between 706 and 716[1] – 17 August[2] 754) was the eldest son of Charles Martel, major domo or mayor of the palace and duke of the Franks, and his wife Chrotrud. On Charles' death (741), Carloman and his brother Pippin the Short succeeded to their father's legal positions, Carloman in Austrasia, and Pippin in Neustria. He was a member of the family later called the Carolingians and it can be argued that he was instrumental in consolidating their power at the expense of the ruling Merovingian kings of the Franks. He withdrew from public life in 747 to take up the monastic habit.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carloman,_Mayor_of_the_Palace
------------------------

While his younger brother was busy building the Carolingian dynasty, Carloman left his status as the ruler of "what was called Austrasia, roughly what is now Germany" to go and live in a monastery called Monte Cassino in Italy.

His younger brother Pepin III is more focused on in a history textbook;
-------------------------
His rule, while not as great as either his father's or son's, was historically important and of great benefit to the Franks as a people. It can certainly be argued that Pepin's assumption of the crown, and the title of Patrician of Rome, were harbingers of his son's imperial coronation which is usually seen as the founding of the Holy Roman Empire. He certainly made the Carolingians de jure what his father had made them de facto—the ruling dynasty of the Franks and the foremost power of Europe. While not known as a great general, he was undefeated during his lifetime.
-------------------------

Yet, a son of Pepin III, Charlemagne or Charles the Great, is still respected today in both France and Germany as a great king or an emperor of their ancestors.

-------------------------
By bestowing the Imperial crown upon Charlemagne, the Pope arrogated to himself "the right to appoint ... the Emperor of the Romans, ... establishing the imperial crown as his own personal gift but simultaneously granting himself implicit superiority over the Emperor whom he had created.". And "because the Byzantines had proved so unsatisfactory from every point of view—political, military and doctrinal—he would select a westerner: the one man who by his wisdom and statesmanship and the vastness of his dominions ... stood out head and shoulders above his contemporaries.".

The title of emperor remained in his family for years to come, however, as brothers fought over who had the supremacy in the Frankish state. The papacy itself never forgot the title nor abandoned the right to bestow it. When the family of Charles ceased to produce worthy heirs, the pope gladly crowned whichever Italian magnate could best protect him from his local enemies. This devolution led, as could have been expected, to the dormancy of the title for almost forty years (924-962). Finally, in 962, in a radically different Europe from Charlemagne's, a new Roman Emperor was crowned in Rome by a grateful pope. This emperor, Otto the Great, brought the title into the hands the kings of Germany for almost a millennium, for it was to become the Holy Roman Empire, a true imperial successor to Charles, if not Augustus.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlemagne
---------------------------

If two strong brothers are engaged in a life-and-death struggle, no royal house could stand long.

The modern European Civilization has been thus deeply influenced by a religious decision made in the 8th century by an elder brother of a king who became the father of an emperor whose success had led to the glory of contemporary Europe as an extension of the Roman Empire, though through the dark era of WWI and WWII.

It is so glorious that even Adolf Hitler must have dreamed of his coming coronation as emperor of Europe authorized by a Pope.

Finally, there was at least one man who opted for a Christian life rather than a king of Europe 1250 years ago.

American Christianity of course owes this historical incident, since Christianity might have not been fully developed in Europe but only subsisted as a minor urban religion in Europe without wider diffusion to farmers and other ordinary people unless one possible king of Europe had abandoned his worldly ambition.

SECTION II: JAPANESE OBAMAS

It is true there is nobody in Japan that can match Caroline of New York.

YUKO OBUCHI (The Liberal Democratic Party)
Ms. Obuchi is a daughter of a former Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi who died of a fatal disease during his term of the Japanese premiership in 2000 when she was working in a TV broadcasting company.

Now she is the youngest state minister of Japan after WWII as she inherited the electoral regional base of her late father so as to be elected as a national lawmaker.

She emphasized in a recent interview that the LDP has lost confidence of the people. "Without relations of trust between the party and the people, no politics can work," she said.

She might become the second female Minister of Defense of Japan in the future.

http://www.obuchiyuko.com/greeting.php


MASAHISA SATO (The Liberal Democratic Party)
Mr. Sato, now a Japanese parliament member, was once stationed in southern Iraq as an officer of the Ground Self-Defense Force, though recently the Japanese Government has completely pulled out Japanese servicemen having been dispatched to Iraq for on-site aid to local people (and for actual support for U.S. military's noncombat activities) over land and in air.

The Japanese Iraqi-mission veteran, once so popular among Iraqi children, recently emphasized a need to take necessary measures against pirates, since it is a matter of national sovereignty rather than international contribution.

http://east.tegelog.jp/index.php?itemid=2105


KEIICHIRO ASAO (The Democratic Party of Japan)
Mr. Asao is one of the members of the National Diet of Japan who are promoting a policy of accepting 10 million immigrants.

In the context of the falling birthrate in Japan, some people want to keep the level of the Japan's population for various reasons even by adopting such a natioanl policy. Yet, most nationalists are against this kind of measures.

Mr. Asao is one of the typical elite lawmakers who graduated from the faculty of law, the University of Tokyo, and learnt in a grad school in America.

Though some such relatively young and elite politicians are spotted in both the LDP and the DPJ, compared with Mr. Barack Obama they still look like unfashionable public speakers probably due to the cultural difference between Japan and the U.S. even if they are selling an idea of welcoming 10 million immigrants to Japan.

Anyway, it may be in tune with an American diplomatic policy for Japan to accept 10 million immigrants mainly from Asia, including China, since the size of the Japanese market will be secured accordingly.

**********************************************

That is all for today.

The American magazine "Science" has chosen the study on the resetting of a cell as the No.1 scientific achievement of this year.

The study is based on the revolutionary work of Mr. Shinya Yamanaka, a Japanese medical scientist, on stem cells.

Another Japanese professor's study on superconductivity is also listed in the top 10 scientific feasts of 2008.

Without a fundamental and traditional cultural background of European Christianity, it is truly a wonder for Japanese to present such creative work to the world, isn't it?

Or the Japanese Buddhism that evolved as a state religion in earnest during the same period of deployment of European Christianity under the Carolingian dynasty must expect more fruits of Japanese intellectual work at the Nobel Prize level in the very 21st century, since the EEE Reporter blog was started in 2005 when a Pope from Poland was succeeded by another from Germany.

Mar 12:19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

Mar 12:20 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

Mar 12:21 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.

Mar 12:22 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.

Mar 12:23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

Mar 12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

Mar 12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

Money, Law, and God

(One Peaceful Day around Tokyo)

Money, Law, and God

The other day I purchased a pack of postal cards. The change was 400 yen ($4.44) which I gave a homeless man I happened to encounter on my routine way, though it was not a 130-yen Christmas confection.



SECTION I: A King in the Jungle

If you eat, drink, and have some fun for decades, you will indeed look like a whole man outwardly.

However, you have to accumulate knowledge and get skills to manipulate money and law through long experiences in society; and then you will really behave like a full-fledged member of society.

Yet, you are helpless in a situation like this: the bubble of the crude oil market, the Wall Street scandalous failure, and the emergence of an African American President without mentioning the 9/11 Terror attack and the White House’s decision on launching the Iraq War.

You are completely helpless though you may be master of eating, drinking, having a fun, and manipulating money and law.

This must be the starting point of your long journey for the fulfillment of your true-self and enlightenment of your good-soul.

Put simply if you can kill a lion with empty hands like a man-king in the jungle, you cannot be respected in the world that is making full efforts to address the bubble of the crude oil market, the Wall Street scandalous failure, and the emergence of an African American President without mentioning the 9/11 Terror attack and the White House’s decision on launching the Iraq War.

Give up being master of eating, drinking, having a fun, and manipulating money and law, but read the Gospels and follow Jesus Christ as a poor and humble man. Then, even a lion in the jungle will respect you more than the man-king in the jungle.



SECTION II: MONEY vs. HUMAN VALUE

Now we still live in the money-based economy.

But, people can produce, sell, buy, and consume goods, commodities, and services without money.

The evil of money is in its function of applying to anything in this world.

In theory, if you have 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (trillion times trillion) dollars, you can buy every land on this earth including those owned by the governments (in addition to the future right of use of the Antarctic Continent, the moon, and Mars).

You can also buy all the companies, businesses, firms, and shops on this earth.

You do not need any theory of economy, since now you know economics is a jargon of fools and the poor.

But, on the completion of your buying out the whole earth with money, the value of money will take a nosedive.

Indeed, money can lose its value. Money is not value itself. The value of money relies on the underlying value of lands, companies, goods, and commodities as well as services.

It is the potential of human beings, including wisdom and desire, and their activities that decide the value of money.

Put short, money is a secondary tool in the human society.

And any tool can be replaced by other, since mankind is smart.

As the money-based economy gets so dangerous nowadays, we have to think about the introduction of other tool that will replace money as a means used for convenience in the human world.

That is why I am predicting that mankind will live in the No-Money Economy in the 22nd century.

Money and value, this has been the greatest issue since the invention of money by mankind.

And, you have to learn every piece of wisdom of mankind to tackle this problem, starting with reading the Bible.



SECTION III: Mechanism of Economic Panic and Solutions

There is one unique economist in Japan. He simply argued that it is avarice and greed of the rich and the super-rich that give rise to economic depression.

Mr. Takuro Morinaga writes:
------------------------------------------------------
A financial panic is triggered when avarice of the super-rich, namely capitalists, has inflated to reach the surface of their business and economic activities. They come to hate to make others happy and rich. They come to like to see working people suffer so that they will not distribute wealth widely in the society. The super-rich, namely capitalists, only inflate their own incomes which they in turn invest in business to inflate it. Their company will grow, if smartly operated, to a conglomerate gaining global presence.

However, as they do not pass enough money to workers, namely consumers, the time will come eventually when no goods and services sell any more. Then, prices will collapse, leading to deflation and falling into a crisis.

Therefore the best solution against this kind of danger is to allow consumers to gain a means to buy goods and services. And, one effective measure is tax reduction for workers and consumers but not for businesses and the rich….

http://www.nikkeibp.co.jp/sj/2/column/o/164/index1.html
------------------------------------------------------

John Maynard Keynes also thought that the best measure a government should take when its revenue has decreased is not a tax increase but a tax decrease.

In order to promote this measure, however, the central bank of a nation must provide funds to a government for its execution of administrative and public services.

To produce value by spending the funds, the government needs wisdom to understand how much value the result of the spending will have in the society.

If a one-billion-dollar road constructed newly based on the funds directly provided by the central bank has added value of two billion dollars, the value system of money in the whole society is preserved or rather enhanced.

This well-known scheme must be applied to every micro activities of every citizen and consumer.

The government must invest funds directly provided by the central bank in the people.

The government must love the people by investing a State budget in them before the people feel to like loving the nation.

*****************************************************

That is all for today.

Don’t be a king in the jungle or NASDAQ.

Anyway, St. Peter said that Judas was a thief and betrayed Holy Lord Jesus for money.

But, my Ever-Holy Lord Jesus Christ cannot be such a fool as would be betrayed by a thief for money.

Probably, my Ever-Holy Lord Jesus Christ saved the life of St. Peter by preventing the attack from the Devil and restricting it only to the betrayal against Him.

If Judas had been ousted from the group of disciples before the Last Supper, Judas must have told the Roman Governor that even St. Peter was as dangerous as Jesus Christ.

Indeed, money made Judas a little more foolish, so that St. Peter could evade the possible arrest and death, or the following of his Holy Master to the crucifixion around Jerusalem; Categorically the chosen disciple St. Peter succeeded in carrying out his mission of allowing for the establishment of the Gospel Books.

In this way, the Devil failed in completely burying the story of Jesus Christ in the history, since the Book of St. Peter-Mark, the Book of St. Peter-Matthew, the Book of St. Peter-Luke, and the Book of St. Peter-John were surely delivered to the world.

Indeed, St. Peter, the Ever-Holy Lord died for you.

Please call your followers, the Vatican, back to Jerusalem, sir, St. Peter.

Mr. OBAMA, OIL, and PROTESTANTISM


Two crazy things have happened in 2008: Mr. Obama’s victory and the crude oil price surge.

But, a miracle around American Protestantism is yet to emerge.

Besides, Mr. Paulson is yet to visit Japan and make an apology for omissions and errors of U.S. Treasury Department on the Wall Street matters, though he has visited China 80 times or so.


SECTION I: "OIL MADE Mr. OBAMA WIN"

On the Minerals Management Service, The New York Times editorial read in this September:
---------------------------
The People the Bush administration brought to Washington to run the department had no interest in policing the oil, mining, and agricultural interests they were sworn to regulate and every interest in promoting industry’s (and their own) good fortunes….

It was confirmed in the Texas Watchdog site:
----------------------------
By Jennifer Peebles | Friday, September 12th, 2008

Sadly, our favorite bit of tawdriness in the scandal –- the one that involved a federal official snorting crystal meth off a toaster oven –- took place near the Mile High City, as best we can tell from reading the three special reports issued this week by the Interior Department’s inspector general. But the reports say officials with the federal Minerals Management Service were selling influence, cutting insider deals, getting freebies and meals and who-knows-what-else in the Bayou City.

Funny, that’s not what they were supposed to be doing. They were supposed to be collecting money from Big Oil on behalf of the taxpayers….

But aside from toaster ovens and insider deals, the goodies were flowing freely in Houston, according to the three investigative reports:
• Shell and Chevron reps bought meals and food for Smith in Houston.
• A Hess worker took an oil marketing specialist from Smith’s office and some of his co-workers to dinner at Houston’s downtown Flying Saucer restaurant in September 2003, costing $57.55.
• A male Hess employee often went out socially in Houston with a female oil marketing specialist, with him buying meals and drinks for her on four occasions, worth about $100.
• A male Shell rep bought two female oil marketing specialists dinner in Houston on Jan. 9, 2003.
• The same Shell rep bought dinner and drinks in Houston for another female oil marketing specialist and other workers in her office on Oct. 20, 2005.
• A Shell employee offered a free ticket to an Astros game to another male oil marketing specialist in summer 2006. The federal worker told the IG agents he turned down the ticket.
• Among the other social events put on by the oil company reps and attended by these federal workers was a tailgate at a Houston Texans NFL game, featuring free beer provided by Big Oil.

Ideally, IGs (are the consciences of their agencies. They’re there to stand up for propriety, following the law, following the rules and keeping an eye on the agency pocketbook. In reality, their effectiveness seems to vary from agency to agency. Some are true do-gooders who tell it like it is, and sometimes are penalized for it; some are longtime agency insiders who don’t seem to see very much wrong about how their agency conducts its business.

As as with all matters in the federal government, there can be politics involved, or at least the specter of politics being involved — in that the party in charge sometimes dismisses the IG’s findings as being politically motivated….

Yet the crazy oil price curve on a chart must have highly contributed to Mr. Obama’s victory, either.

The TrendLines Research also claims:
-------------------------------------------------
Our position continues that Crude Prices near the recent record of $134/Barrel were clearly not sustainable in the Global Economy. The concept of Demand Destruction has eluded most analysts and pundits. The main downward forcing on Crude Price will be Recession-related relief in what seemed be ever-rising average exploration-development-lift-overhead expenses. Upward forcing will come in the form of a return to the secular trend debasement of the USDollar as the much needed correction prevails. This will be exacerbated by an overwhelming USA Deficit & National Debt.

With a return to healthy Surplus Capacity, Marginal costs are irrelevant at this time. Albeit conventional fundamentals may indicate an eventual return to this Summer's peak prices in the medium term future, this pressure should in turn be counterbalanced by a return of the Demand Destruction realities that surfaced in 2006 & again in 2008.

When the immoral conducts and behaviors of oil-concerned federal officials and businesses were exposed and the crude oil prices surged like the Tower of Babel (before hedge funds realized the effect of the Demand Destruction), the silent majority of American voters must have become resolute in their determination to vote for Mr. Obama. To match these scandals around crude oil and keep themselves being sane, ordinary American voters desperately need an African American President in the White House, which has got the last push from every news report on Wall Street.

But, if oil prices get stabilized and parties concerned start to behave well, they may not need an African American President in the White House in and after 2012.

However, it does not exclude a speculation of Ms. Caroline Kennedy being elected as, say, U.S. Vice President in 2012.


SECTION II: A Japanese anti-Christian-Church Guy

It is very rare that Japanese people talk about Christianity.

Even Japanese Christians do not often talk about Christianity.

Besides, any talented and able youths in Japan seldom get interested in career-making in the "Christianity business," the business to make money and get social status by leveraging the religion Christianity.

They are not elite in any meaning in the Japanese society: professionals in the Christianity business, namely priests or clergymen.

This is a big social and cultural difference between Japan and the U.S.

However, ordinary citizens also seldom criticize Christianity and Christians in Japan. On the other hand, Japanese Christians do not seem to like professionals in the Buddhist communities, namely monks and a hierarchy, at all.

Now, I am intrigued to find one anti-Christian-church guy in the Japanese blog spheres:
-----------------------------------------------------
…
Therefore Christians who have no consciousness of being evil themselves and no doubt on their own being good and error-free have stooped to be a troop of hypocrites like Pharisees Jesus Christ despised so much.

Now, Christians have become the largest evil on the earth…

Their accumulated acts of attacking true good and truly good people have resulted in today’s Christian churches: the large-ever tower of ivory of hypocrites.

-----------------------------------------------------

Indeed, if poor Japanese people know how much assets and money Japanese priests, clergymen, and Christian churches have, they will simply understand that they are making religion business.

No one in Japan thinks that there is an honest follower of Jesus Christ in Christian churches in Japan, since people in churches seem to have a middle-class life.

I really think they, namely Japanese priests and clergymen, will be the last in understanding who and what Jesus Christ is in Japan.

That is why I am telling you that you have to read Holy Words EEE Reporter presents everyday at the end of this blog.

(Today, December 17, Jesus said not to accumulate wealth in this world, since it will not change your fate but be used by others eventually.)

That is all for today.

But remember that Mr. Barack Obama has not been riding on coattails of any significant forces of new types of American Protestants.

A true change in America must be carried out by somebody more associated with Protestantism than leveraged by the anger of voters at immoral conducts and behaviors of oil-concerned federal officials and businesses in addition to a crazy run-up of oil prices in 2008.

Luk 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:

Luk 12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

Luk 12:18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

Luk 12:19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

Luk 12:20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
