Blogging Theology


The longer full episode (didn't watch): Islam and Bioethics - An Introduction with Prof Mohammed Ghaly Blogging Theology




This is great I think, nice brain food but not only that. I do think it can help people and help people develop in their own selves...I see it as congruent to or that is to say, compatible and agreeing with Islam and Islamic principles and understandings: The Religion of Tomorrow | Transcendent Naturalism #11 with Gregg Henriques and Jordan Hall John Vervaeke




Has some cursing etc. but it is more outrageous the lies the mainstream media peddles: 60 Minutes Pushes 100% War Propaganda! The Jimmy Dore Show




Didn't agree with Noam on quite a few things here but anyway: Noam Chomsky Interview 2023: UBI, AI, Media, Linguistics, Neoliberalism, Corbyn, Sanders, Anarchism Hugo Harvey




= Watched a video that has been removed. - I believe this might be a Patrick Lancaster video where he talks to a Japanese man fighting for Russia in Ukraine, unsure though.



Hmm, I should probably watch this sometime yet still: Bridging Behavioral Science & Government Policies for a Meaningful Work Experience | Voices John Vervaeke









Clare...may Allah bless, talk about a strong lady...



---------------Next day


Watched Another Armenian Genocide? Sheikh Imran Hosein



Watched some: Morning Wird and Scattered Thoughts Masjid Muhammad of Atlantic City, Inc.



Watched some Let's talk about some news (Live) The Duran




Made this Word document about Russia-Ukraine war with links...and some other things, talking with some friends on Facebook...







Really quite a good talk I would say trying to explain a lot of the principles of Islam...: What is Islam All About? - Mufti Menk Mufti Menk



Who Is Allah? - MIND BLOWING! One Islam Productions





Building that aforementioned document:


Watched some, I don't agree with, I do agree with some of the Youtube comments...I still like Taibbi and think he is a good guy, good person though - it's alright : Matt Taibbi on Putin the Apostate theAnalysis-news



Didn't watch all, have already watched, is a really great talk IMO and the way he delivers it and his voice etc., is pretty perfect in my opinion, is very good. It doesn't cover everything of course but it is only a little over an hour long...: Why is Ukraine the West's Fault? Featuring John Mearsheimer The University of Chicago




Didn't watch: The New Cold War | John Mearsheimer | Tom Switzer | CIS Centre for Independent Studies




Really really good and well done. - It would earn a passing grade in my college class for like a regular weekly type of assignment, I would want a little more for a final exam but yeah, it's good and well done in my view: USA & NATO responsible for Ukraine war, German & French public say in poll Geopolitical Economy Report



Searched for the duran (- looking for more documentation, in this case videos, to support what I am putting forth in my document....) :


This is a good one...supports my knowledge or "theory" of a U.S. global empire acting in an imperial way...is happening before our very eyes even....: US efforts to strangle China & reassert hegemony - Jeffrey Sachs, Alexander Mercouris & Glenn Diesen

The Duran



Building my document I put in various links to Duran videos....Here is that section of it :

This video for example and the situation in Niger (if you get good reliable sources that will tell the truth of the matter, one can start seeing the “neo-colonial” in plain sight and understand that oh yes, it is a “neo-colonial” system this is not some crazy conspiracy theory or something…: France desperate to hold on to Niger, and its uranium

I did watch some of this...is okay, I don't really like changing the environment (ecology) to suit our human wants and desires (I know quite a bit...I have took college classes...though I am forgetful.) though, that is what I didn't like...things can be fun and good and that's okay and all but life is a test and time is precious at the same time...we got a lot of blessings as-is living in a first world country...but yeah, I really like and did like playing in nature especially as a kid...: Navigating the Terrain of Movement and Meaning: A Conversation with John Vervaeke and Rafe Kelley John Vervaeke
