Cleopatranwa: dis is one of d dumbest questions I ve ever come across! Talking of interception, who was d one dat was approached to intercede on behalf of d wedding that brought about Jesus's FIRST miracle? Believe it or not,Mary intercede's on behalf of anybody dat calls on her! she's d Mother of Christ, so therefore She merits d Honor n prayers! Even if u r not a Catholic, always call on her in any situation u find urself cuz she still listens to our plights and takes it to her Son Jesus Christ on our behalf! *Anybody dat doesn't believe dat Mother Mary is a means of gaining easy access to Christ is living in denial!
no offence but still on dis dumb topic quotes sciptures where Christ asked his fellowers known as christains to pray tru mary

Airhix: Some of us claim to know God to much , be very careful with Godly issues. (Airhix).

True apparitions, although rare, may be traced back even to Scripture. Both the Old & New Testaments contain accounts of angelic apparitions. In the New Testament, the Apostles (Peter, James & John) saw Moses and Elijah at the Transfiguration. We know that St. Paul also conversed directly with Christ after His Ascension. Since then, various apparitions of angels, saints, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and even Christ Himself have been reported. 

While it is true that most alleged apparitions are not approved by the Church, there are a number which have received the Church's approval - including a number of apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In fact, "the first Marian apparition" - as witnessed by St. James the Greater - may be traced all the way back to 40 A.D. More recently, a number Marian apparitions have occurred in which the Blessed Virgin made accurate productions and left indisputable proof of their authenticity (including miraculous images, healings, solar phenomena, etc.).

Perhaps the biggest difficulty with apparitions is determining whether or not they are truly of the supernatural - and not a figment of a "seer's" imagination or a "diabolical deception". To assist in this matter, the Church may employ a rigorous investigative process and advise the faithful whether or not a reported apparition is "worthy of belief". Even with this process, however, the Church does not guarantee that any apparition is genuine or require belief in any apparition. 

With regard to apparitions, the following should be kept in mind:

Most alleged apparitions are false.

There have been a "countless number" (many thousands) of reported apparitions. Very few receive recognition from the Bishop.

Apparitions may not add to the deposit of the faith, which was completed with the apostles.
mary had other kids apart from Jesus so y d title virgin? the bible states soley that Jesus is d way nd no one comes to d father except tru him, sorry to say but u reverend mary more than u even do to Jesus and his heavenly father, praises that needs to be given to the most high God is usually channeled to mary. its so so so sad

Friend please the bible is simpler than all dis ambigous and confusing words that u bring in here. its these ambigous words and confusing explanations that deter people from learning the bible.

there is only one true God, and his son Jesus............shallom.

Politics › Sudan's Bashir Arrives In Nigeria To Anger Of Rights Groups by calddon(op): 7:52am On Jul 15, 2013
ABUJA (Reuters) - Sudanese President Omar al-
Bashir arrived in Nigeria on Sunday for an African
Union summit on HIV/AIDS as his hosts chose to
ignore an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest
warrant against him.
Bashir, accused of masterminding genocide and
other atrocities during Sudan's Darfur conflict, which
has left some 200,000 people dead, in theory risks
arrest if he travels to one of the more than 120
states including Nigeria that have signed up to the
ICC.
He has been refused trips to Uganda, South Africa,
Malawi and Zambia in the past because of his
indictment. This is his first trip to West Africa since
the warrant was issued.
The African Union (AU) voted in 2009 not to
cooperate with the ICC indictments, saying they
would hamper efforts to end Sudan's multiple
conflicts. Bashir rejects the ICC charges.
"The Sudanese president came for an AU event and
the AU has taken a position on the ICC arrest order,
so Nigeria has not taken action different from the
AU stand," presidential spokesman Reuben Abati
said.
Human Rights Watch International Justice Program
director Elise Keppler said Nigeria had "the shameful
distinction of being the first West African country to
welcome ICC fugitive Sudanese President Sudan al-
Bashir".
"Al-Bashir is sought on the gravest crimes ... and
Nigeria's hosting is an affront to victims - he
belongs in custody," she said.
The main African Union summit this month had to
be moved to Ethiopia, which has not signed the ICC
statute, after Malawi, heavily dependent on Western
aid, refused to host Bashir.
Though initially welcomed by African leaders, the ICC
has been accused of exclusively targeting African
war criminals and failing to indict anyone from other
continents, a charge the ICC and its backers says is
unfair.

Crime › Two Children Kill Mother Over Witchcraft by calddon(op): 8:36am On Jul 08, 2013
Barely three weeks after a retired solder killed his wife with a machete in Edo State, two children have allegedly murdered their mother, Mrs Howo Ojeifo, at Lampese in Akoko-Edo Local Government Area of the state. The late Ojeifo, like the soldier’s wife, was killed with a machete by her children (names withheld), who accused her of witchcraft.

It was gathered that she would have survived if she had not yielded to her daughter’s pressure to accompany her and her younger brother to the farm. But unknown to the woman, her two children, aged 25 and 20 respectively had plotted to kill her in the farm.

Sources told Daily Sun that the elder of the two assailants had been having issues with her mother who she accused of witchcraft and her inability to progress in life. She was, however, said to have apologised to her mother few days to the incident, pleading that she was misled into believing that her mother was responsible for her misfortune.

Unknown to the woman, the unsolicited apology was a decoy and on the fateful day, the suspect appealed to her mother to accompany her somewhere.

It was gathered that despite her mother’s explanation that she was busy with house chores, the suspect said she would wait until she was through and eventually talked her mother into abandoning the cassava she was peeling and accompanied her daughter to the farm.

Mrs Ojeifo was led through a bush path to the farm and midway; her son brought out a machete and started ‘cutting their mother’.

An eyewitness, who the suspects allegedly threatened to deal with if he reported what he had seen, was said to have rushed down to report to the community but before people could be mobilised to the scene, the children had killed their mother.

When contacted yesterday, Edo State Police Command Public Relations Officer, Moses Eguavoen confirmed the incident and said it happened on July 3 and that it was the former husband of the victim, Mr. Itowo who made a formal report to the police.

He said the suspects ran to Uzebba in Owan West council after committing the crime but that the covert intelligence of the police led to their arrest. “The case will soon be transferred to the state command for further investigation,” Eguavoen said.

Health › Bone Marrow Transplant 'frees Men Of HIV Drugs' by calddon(op): 10:24am On Jul 03, 2013
Two patients have been taken off their HIV drugs after
bone-marrow transplants seemed to clear the virus from
their bodies, doctors report.
One of the patients has spent nearly four months
without taking medication with no sign of the virus
returning.
The team at Brigham and Women's Hospital, in the US,
caution that it is far too soon to talk about a cure as the
virus could return at any point.
The findings were presented at the International Aids
Society Conference.
It is difficult to get rid of an HIV infection because it
hides inside human DNA, forming untouchable
"reservoirs" in body.
Anti-retroviral drugs keep the virus in check within the
bloodstream - but when the drugs stop, the virus comes
back.
HIV gone?
The two men, who have not been identified, had lived
with HIV for about 30 years.
They both developed a cancer, lymphoma, which
required a bone-marrow transplant.
Bone marrow is where new blood cells are made and it
is thought to be a major reservoir for HIV.
After the transplant, there was no detectable HIV in the
blood for two years in one patient and four in the other.
The pair came off their anti-retroviral drugs earlier this
year.
One has gone 15 weeks, and the other seven, since
stopping treatment, and no signs of the virus have been
detected so far.
Dr Timothy Henrich told the BBC the results were
exciting. But he added: "We have not demonstrated cure,
we're going to need longer follow-up.
"What we can say is if the virus does stay away for a
year or even two years after we stopped the treatment,
that the chances of the virus rebounding are going to be
extremely low.
"It's much too early at this point to use the C-word
[cure]."
It is thought that the transplanted bone marrow was
initially protected from infection by the course of anti-
retrovirals. Meanwhile the transplant also attacked the
remaining bone marrow, which was harbouring the virus.
However Dr Henrich cautioned that the virus could be
still be hiding inside brain tissue or the gastrointestinal
track.
"If [the] virus does return, it would suggest that these
other sites are an important reservoir of infectious virus
and new approaches to measuring the reservoir at
relevant sites will be needed to guide the development
of HIV curative strategies," he said.
Berlin patient
Timothy Brown, also known as the "Berlin patient" is
thought to be the first person cured of Aids. He had a
bone marrow transplant from a rare donor who was
resistant to HIV.
The two US cases both received bone marrow from
normal donors.
There was also a report of an HIV cure in a baby born in
Mississippi, US. She was treated with anti-retroviral
drugs at birth so it is thought the virus was cleared from
the body before reservoirs were established.
Dr Michael Brady, the medical director of the Terrence
Higgins Trust, said: "It is too early to know whether HIV
has been eradicated from these men's bodies or whether
it might return.
"However, the case suggests that what happened to
Timothy Brown, the Berlin Patient was perhaps not a
one-off.
"A bone marrow transplant is a complex and expensive
procedure, which comes with significant risks.
"For most people with HIV, it would be more dangerous
to undergo a transplant than to continue managing the
virus with daily medication.
"So while this is by no means a workable cure, it does
give researchers another signpost in the direction of
one."
The head of the Foundation for AIDS Research, Kevin
Frost, said: "These findings clearly provide important
new information that might well alter the current
thinking about HIV and gene therapy.
"While stem-cell transplantation is not a viable option
for people with HIV on a broad scale because of its
costs and complexity, these new cases could lead us to
new approaches to treating, and ultimately even
eradicating, HIV."
