Plain Facts Behind Conspiracies 

How the late Princess Diana is linked to Rothschild:

Note:
Two adjacent cells with the same color indicate marriage of two persons shown in these cells.
An upper cell is for a parent of a child in a lower cell.


Put simply, one (Mary Roche) of Princess Diana's aunts has a husband (Denis Berry) whose brother married a daughter (Rosemary) of the Rothschild family.

There are some people still looking for hidden truth in the deaths of two notable figures:

Update on the Deaths of Princess Diana Spencer and
Dodi Al-Fayed
By Alex Constantine 

After the death of the Princess of Wales in 1997, the press noted in passing that Adnan Khassoghi is the brother-in-law of Mohamed Al-Fayed, a former business partner of one El-Amira Atta, the father of the accused airline hijacker. Fayed was a veteran of the American Pinay Circle that recruited Adnan into its ranks. Back in 1953, GHW Bush, whose name would be linked to Khashoggi's in the Iran-contra affair, and Al Fayed were directors of the Singer Sewing Machine company. Both Bush and Al Fayed were therefore coevals of George de Mohrenschildt, a Nazi spy during WW II, according to FBI records, and later Lee Harvey Oswald's sponsor in the United States after he returned from the Soviet Union.

There is a strong possibility that Osama bin Laden got shocked by the mysterious deaths of Princess Diana and her Egyptian boyfriend, a Muslim.  This tragedy in Paris in 1997 must have made Osama  get resolute in attacking the US, his own choice of enemy, which stationed many American soldiers in Saudi Arabia in the war against Iraq in 1991.

President Clinton was responsible for the failure in preventing the 9/11 Terror.  But President G. W. Bush was responsible for the global financial crisis of 2008.

But President Barack Obama took on Osama bin Laden in 2011 and the American economy is now getting back to a right track under Oabama's administration.

So, there might have no commotions in the British royal family if one of their members should try to marry an African with a black skin.  Indeed, those incidents have almost become history, but something to be revealed might still remain: the JFK Assassination, the Persian Gulf War, the 9/11 Terror, and the 2008 Global Financial Crisis.

"Now there were seven brethren" - 100,000-Year Periodic Cooling

Tokyo Downtown

100,000-Year Periodic Cooling

It is raining around Tokyo today.

But other regions in Japan are suffering snow.  It is expected that this winter will bring more snow to Japan than in a usual year.

It is  said that when the end of the world is near, the spring and the autumn disappear and one year will have only summer and winter.  This really fits the situation we live.  The global warming has made the summer continue well into the autumn, thus making the autumn shorter.  But the winter comes suddenly without easing its coldness.


Put extremely, the earth could become an ice ball more easily than a scorching globe.  So, abundant CO2 now around us might be a good thing to prevent the earth from becoming a snowball earth.

***

Some Japanese scientists studying a trend of global temperature use ice in Antarctica.

They dug up an ice clump from a location 2503 meters below the surface of an ice sheet covering the Antarctic Continent.  It gives them information on global temperature and density of CO2 in the air over past 320,000 years.  Their findings are presented in the figure below:

http://polaris.nipr.ac.jp/~domef/home/japan/page2.html

In the above figure the blue line shows a trend of concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air.  The red line represents a transition of temperature.

The horizontal line on the bottom has a scale of depth from the surface of the ice sheet, ranging from 0 meters to 3000 meters.  The horizontal line on the upper side is a time scale, with descriptions from 10,000 years ago to 800,000 years ago and ? x 10,000 years ago.

It is clear that both the blue and the red lines show very similar trends.  In these 300,000 years, when the concentration of CO2 was high, temperature was also high.

However, 10,000 years ago the atmosphere temperature started to decline, while CO2 density started to increase so sharply above past levels very recently.  This is a situation which has never been observed.  So, Japanese scientists worry about new drastic phenomena expected to happen sooner or later, since for the first time in these 300,000 years the CO2 density and the global temperature have come to move to opposite directions to each other.  

Put simply, the large framework of the nature on the earth is moving toward global cooling.  But human civilization has produced so much CO2 delivered to the air, which has triggered the global warming.  Presently we might still live in an exquisite balance.  But the power of  global cooling might eventually overcome the energy for global warming.  Or global warming might be further intensified beyond restriction posed by the underlying cooling power.


***

Japanese and American scientists resolved a question why a glacial age and an inter-glacial stage alternate with each other in a cycle of 100,000 years.  This phenomenon came to emerge about 800,000 years ago.  In other word, while the human species has been on evolution, he has experienced this circle of change in the global environment.

However, the level of an amount of sunlight the earth receives has changed in a cycle of 20,000 to 40,000 years.  There is a big discrepancy between the cycle of a glacial age and that of sunlight intensity.  The scientists found that it is caused by interaction between the air, ice sheets, and the earth's crust in their response to the cycle of sunlight intensity.

(Nature, Volume 500, Number 7461, pp 190–193, Insolation-driven 100,000-year glacial cycle and hysteresis of ice-sheet volume. by Ayako Abe-Ouchi＊, Fuyuki Saito, Kenji Kawamura, Maureen E. Raymo, Jun’ichi Okuno, Kunio Takahashi and Heinz Blatter)
http://www.aori.u-tokyo.ac.jp/research/news/2013/20130808.html


Most importantly this 100,000-year periodic global cooling is not influenced by CO2 density.  Therefore, the environment is still going to be cool regardless of an increase in CO2 concentration in the air or despite CO2-induced effect of global warming.

That is why winter is getting colder while summer is going hotter on the earth as observed today.

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.
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?
Mar 12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

"Peter continued knocking" - When the Sun Rises from the West

When the Sun Rises from the West

The Koran admits that Christ Jesus was a prophet who was expected to come back to the human world on the judgment day.

Prophets in Islam 

Jesus

God sent one of the highest-ranked prophets in Islam, Jesus, to the Children of Israel. The Quran makes it clear that Jesus was not divine nor did he have a share in God's divinity and rather spoke only of the worship of God. Jesus is called the Masihin Muslim belief. In Christianity, they believe that Jesus was crucified. Islam confirms that the Children of Israel wanted to kill Jesus by crucifying him on a cross, but God did not let this happen. Muslims believe that God raised Jesus to heaven (as in flying higher and higher, elevating) and saved Jesus from the Children of Israel, and then they crucified a man that was made to appear as Jesus. This is considered by Muslims as a miracle. Jesus will return to Earth near al-Qiyamah (Resurrection Day, Day of Judgement) to restore peace and rid the world of its evil, according to the sayings of Muhammad. The Quran also refers to this in Sura Maryam, when Jesus spoke out of his cradle "...peace be upon me the day I was born, the day I'll die, and the day I'll be raised back to life (again)!"

Muhammad 

Muhammad is important for sealing prophecy in Muslim belief and reinforcing the same faith that started with Adam. Muslims don't view Muhammad as the beginner of a new religion, but the Quran states that Muhammad simply preached the same religion as Adem (Adam), Ibrahim (Abraham), Nuh (Noah), Musa (Moses), Isa (Jesus) and all the other prophets, and continued the holy religion. Both Sunni Muslims and Shia Muslims follow Muhammad by following his sayings, what he had told them what to do and not to do, and emulating Muhammad is referred to as Sunnah. Shia Muslims in addition to following Muhammad's sayings, also give importance to his family (Ahl al-Bayt). Muhammad's cousin and son-in-law, Ali is seen as his successor, the first of The Twelve Imams by Shi'ites. Sunni Muslims and Shia Muslims agree on the personality of an eschatological figure; Muhammad al-Mahdi from the lineage of the Prophet Muhammad through his daughter Fatimah, the Mahdi will return before al-Qiyamah ( see: Islamic eschatology ) along with Jesus to rid the world of injustice.      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prophets_of_Islam 

But the Koran tells that the end of the world will be highlighted by the sun coming up from the west.

Islamic eschatology is the branch of Islamic scholarship that studies Yawm al-Qiyāmah (pronounced yome-ul-key-ah-mah; Arabic: يوم القيامة‎ "the Day of Resurrection") or Yawm ad-Dīn (pronounced yome-ud-dean; Arabic: يوم الدين‎ "the Day of Judgment"). This is believed to be the final assessment of humanity by Allah, with annihilation of all life, resurrection, and judgment. 

The time of the event is not specified, although there are major and minor signs which have been foretold to happen with Qiyamah at the end of time.[1][2] Many verses of Qur'anic Sura contain the motif of the impending Day of Resurrection.[3][4] 

The ninth sign is the rising of the sun from the West after a long night, which after midday will set again. According to Hadith: 

Abu Hurayrah states that the Messenger of Allah (swt) as said, “The Hour will not be established until the sun rises from the West and when the people see it they will have faith. But that will be (the time) when believing of the soul, that will have not believed before that time, will not benefit it.
—Ibn Maja, as-Sunan, vol. 2 p 1352-53[21] 

The final signs will be nafkhatu'l-ula, when the trumpet will be sounded for the first time, and which will result in the death of the remaining sinners. Then there will be a period of forty years. Then a second trumpet will sound to signal the resurrection. As written in the Qur'an:
The Trumpet will (just) be sounded, when all that are in the heavens and on earth will swoon, except such as it will please Allah (to exempt). Then will a second one be sounded, when, behold, they will be standing and looking on!
—Sura 39 (Az-Zumar), ayah 68[43] 

Finally, there will be no more injustice:
Surely God does not do injustice to the weight of an ant, and if it is a good deed He multiplies it and gives from Himself a great reward.
—Sura 4 An-Nisa, ayah 40[44]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_eschatology#Major_Events

Anyway the Koran handles the end of the world in a series of events:

Creation => End of the World => Resurrection => Judgment => Second Creation of Heaven/Hell

It is the rotten human world that is to be ended due to its blasphemy.  Pious people will be saved through this process.  But it will be a decisive and critical event even for righteous people if the human world comes to its end.

Or will believers have no compassion at all on sinners and servants of the Devil who are to be lost forever in the hell?  

Nonetheless we are not told by Christ Jesus to love the Devil which might be this human world itself, since Christ Jesus had to win this world and succeeded in doing so.

"give tribute to Caesar, or not?" - Tax to Pay to God

Tax to Pay to God

Some enemies of Christ Jesus came to Him.

They thought they were smart to find a way to trap Christ.  Christ never respected the Roman authority.  He would like to forbid Israelites to pay tax to the Roman emperor.  But Christ must be wiser.  He would try to avoid a danger of challenging the Roman rule of Judea and Jerusalem.  But if Christ agreed to pay a tax to the Roman authority in Jerusalem, those enemies could laugh at Christ for His submission to the worldly power while He was acting like a holy man.

Indeed Christ Jesus told them to pay a tax to the Roman emperor but also pay their lives to God, namely give up lives to God by dying.   In other word, the Roman emperor takes your money but the God takes your lives.  It implies that the enemies of Christ should be killed by God if they challenged Him.  So, the enemies must have felt fear.

"Render unto Caesar" is the beginning of a phrase attributed to Jesus in the synoptic gospels, which reads in full, "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's." 

This phrase has become a widely quoted summary of the relationship between Christianity and secular authority. The original message, coming in response to a question of whether it was lawful for Jews to pay taxes to Caesar, gives rise to multiple possible interpretations about the circumstances under which it is desirable for the Christian to submit to earthly authority. 

At his trial before Pontius Pilate, Jesus was accused of promoting resistance to Caesar's tax. 

Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate. And they began to accuse him, saying, "We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Christ/Messiah, a king." (Luke 23:1-4) 

The passage has been much discussed in the modern context of Christianity and politics, especially on the questions of separation of church and state and tax resistance.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Render_unto_Caesar

Therefore, there is no general rule concerning tax in this world in teachings by Christ Jesus.  Once Christ said to sell all the assets, get a toll, and give all the money to the poor before following Him.

A pious man would honestly pay tax and give his money to the poor.  Accordingly, a pious man cannot help but become poor for himself.

The point at issue is not Caesar, the Roman authority or any government.  But what is more important is for a man to be poor by giving him money to the poor, but he is not forbidden to pay tax as a duty so that taxation imposed on the poor would be rather light and small.

Another important thing is that our lives belong to God but not to ourselves, since we did not create them but God did.

And the last thing we have to ponder is what it is: tax to God.

However, Christ Jesus benevolently told that we can accumulate wealth in Heaven.  So then, our tax must be subtracted from our wealth accumulated in Heaven.  We will surely see the bottom lines of our accounts in Heaven.  If we don't have enough assets in Heaven to meet a tax request by God, something terrible should happen.  We will lose a right to enter Heaven and receive an eternal life.

Do you have a coin on which the face of God is inscribed?

All the coins in Heaven must bear the image of Christ Jesus for this episode called "Render unto Caesar."

Render unto God!

Mar 12:15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
Mar 12:16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.

"Jesus was coming to Jerusalem" - How to Drive Out the Devil

The Only One Tramcar Line in Tokyo

How to Drive Out the Devil

The most important mission for followers of Christ Jesus is to drive out the Devil from minds of people.

But not all the people possessed by the Devil act strangely or dangerously.  Even in the mind of the calmest priest or layman the Devil penetrates.

Today the Pope seems to be able to handle the easiest case.

The nature of exorcism was the topic at last week's annual meeting of French Catholic exorcists according to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Paris. The Paris Archdiocesan Service told Rome's Zenet news agency that more than 30% of the people who request exorcisms have engaged in activities such as witchcraft.
During the meeting, the archdiocese outlined the profile of people who request the ritual. 

Among individuals who request exorcism, 31% engage in witchcraft, spiritualism or related activities, and 23% suffer pathological problems such as delirium, hallucinations, obsessions, anxiety crises, suicide attempts or visions. 

Eighteen percent suffer from family problems such as divorce or sexual abuse; 15% suffer from depression linked to loneliness, abortion, chronic unemployment, false guilt feelings, death tendencies or similar trends. Eighteen percent have religious problems such as possessions, pacts with the devil, curses and diabolical apparitions. Father Henri Caffart, the exorcist of France's Arras Diocese, told the SIR Catholic agency that more and more individuals come to ask for his help, "after having asked for help from sorcerers, gurus and visionaries," Zenet reported. 

And Father Maurice Bellot, exorcist of the Paris Archdiocese said "the more pagan the mentality, the greater the requests for exorcisms. They often ask me to exorcise them by telephone, or at least at home."

Dear Jane: It's true that J. P. II performed at least 2 exorcisms during his pontificate, that information is taken from a very serious french publication called "L'actualite religieuse dans le monde", that could be "Religious actualitty in the world"; on 1.984 that publication said that an exorcism was performed by his holyness on 1.982 and the other one on 1.984. This very same information is taken by a french journalist "Francois Dunois canette" in his book: "Les pretres exorcistes", 1.993, Editions Robert Laffont, S.A., Paris. That must be "The exorcist priests"

The young woman was brought to one of the Polish pontiff's weekly audiences in St Peter's Square in 2000 and started screaming, writhing on the floor and drooling.
The encounter is described in a new book by Father Gabriele Amorth, the exorcist for the diocese of Rome. 

As soon as she entered St Peter's Square, in front of the Vatican, her behaviour became bizarre. 

"When John Paul appeared, she began to wail. Ten people had to hold her down. She wanted to fling herself at the Pope. Her face was full of hate. She was drooling, uttering blasphemies. 

"Her body trembled. She was like a beast ready to attack," Father Amorth wrote in his book, The Last Exorcist – My Fight Against Satan, which was released on Tuesday. 

After the audience was over, the Pope reportedly asked to be taken to see the woman in his Popemobile. 

"Sabrina was in a trance. Her eyes were two white orbs. She was drooling and throwing her head backwards. As soon as she was brought close to the Pope she started yelling 'No, leave me alone!' The pope carried out an exorcism on the spot. He blessed her several times. And then he left," wrote Father Amorth, the founder and president of the International Association of Exorcists. 

But the exorcism did not work – when Sabrina was brought to see Father Amorth later that day, she was still possessed, according to Father Amorth. 

"She was very agitated. I started to exorcise her. But the Devil wanted to show that he was still in command. I started to pray and said 'Get out, foul spirit.' It replied 'You get out, priest'. I said 'Why are you in this woman? Answer in the name of Christ'. The spirit answered 'You must all worship me because I am the strongest. I am God.'"
Father Amorth claimed that the young woman then got up from her chair and proceeded to walk up the wall behind him "as if it was the most natural thing in the world. She walked against every law of gravity." 

It eventually took many sessions to cleanse her entirely of her demons, he said. "But I'm convinced that in some way the exorcism carried out by JPII left a trace in her."
The Pope had more success with an exorcism in the Vatican in March, 1982, when a young girl named Francesca Fabrizi was brought to him by the Bishop of Spoleto in Umbria. 

"She was writhing around on the floor, crying out. She became calm when the Pope said 'Tomorrow I will say mass for you'," Father Amorth wrote. She went on to live a normal life, getting married and having children. 

In his book, he also claimed the current Pope, Benedict XVI, performed an exorcism on two men possessed by the Devil at one of his weekly audiences in St Peter's Square in May 2009.

In contrast, Japanese people traditionally have seen spirits in various living things,  nonliving matters, and even in movement of a man, an animal, etc.

Even in one tiny stone some Japanese can feel existence of a spirit.  So, actually a mountain itself can be a holy spirit himself to some pious Japanese following shintoism.  There are some mountains in Japan which are shrines themselves.  As an example, for some faction of shinto religion, Mt. Fuji itself is a big shrine.  And these spirits are good spirits, though they can get angry at people for their wrongdoing.

But there is of course a concept of being possessed by an evil spirit in Japan.  To drive out such a harmful spirit, people once relied on shinto priests or Buddhist monks.  But nowadays, those poor people possessed by ill spirits are forcibly sent to mental hospitals.

Modern psychiatry could hold patients in a hospital or have them attend a hospital to prevent them from harming others or themselves.  But their method relying on medicine cannot cure those patients 100%, since the real root of the illness must be rooted in the spiritual sphere.

Without love, no complete therapy can be expected.

However, Christ Jesus preached just for a few years.

A chronology of Jesus typically has the date of the start of his ministry estimated at around 27-29 AD/CE and the end in the range 30-36 AD/CE.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ministry_of_Jesus 

Suppose that there is another Jesus today.  He is accompanied by some followers.  If They traveled, say, from Washington DC to New York in three years, They will meet so many people per day.  In this case, Christ has to perform one miracle at least every hour.  Then, 12 miracles per day for three years can total more than 13,000 miracles.

Of course, 2000 years ago not so many people lived between Galilee and Jerusalem.    

Tacitus declares that Jerusalem at its fall contained 600,000 persons; Josephus, that there were as many as 1,100,000 slain in the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70, along with 97,000 who were sold as slaves.   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Jewish_population_comparisons

However, we may assume that Christ Jesus performed one miracle at least every week.  Then in three years, he must have done 140 or so miracles.  The number of miracles listed in the above table is just 37.  It is almost one miracle per month, though the Bible said that there were many other miracles the Bible could not contain.

Joh 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. 

But the Four Gospels present Jesus' miracles in an overlapping way. Why could not they report very different miracles if the authors of the Gospels had chosen miracles to report independent of one another?

The answer might be that Christ Jesus had at least 11 close followers each of whom remembered miracles they saw and loved.  So, when one follower wrote down what Christ Jesus did for his own reference, he would surely choose miracles he had observed closely and he had been moved so much.  If all the sources of the Four Gospels had been one, it would be very reasonable that total only 37 miracles are mentioned in the Four Gospels in a strong overlapping manner.

But as there were 11 Disciples, we may assume that at least total 400 or so miracles Christ worked (11 x 37 = 407).   There may be still double counting.  So we can assume that the real number was one third of 400.  It is very roughly 140.  Then Christ Jesus performed miracles at least every week, four in months, 48 in a year, and 140 in three years of His mission.

Anyway, it seems to be sure that there was only one source for the Four Gospels, since the total number of Jesus' miracles reported there was just 37.  

But why one per week?  Was the band of Christ Jesus 2000 years ago mostly walking through desolate wilderness or paths?  It seems so, indeed.  But how could they feed themselves?  A mystery still remains.

By the way, there is a theory that the number 37 means a hexagram, God, and greatness.  Can this be a minor miracle?
