Kid slaps his mother on live tv dr. phil

Lami ning bataa i bakoson. This child is obviously spoiled and is not disciplined enough.

"Spare the rod, spoil the child."

Please also do not generalize the Lim Family, as there are two Lim Families in Valencia. The current Lim side that the current mayor, Concepcion Lim is part of, and the other Lim Family that Dr. Guido Lim is, who is a close family friend, is part of.

Thanks Lorenzo, you're too kind.


Glace, I think Lorenzo is but I'm not, I'm the exception to the family of nurses, doctors and seamen. I am an accountant turned realtor...but hardcore gardener. 

unya ra, I'll put together pics of my garden then i'll post a link. Its not as fabulous as some professional gardens, backyard garden lang ning ako, but what I do have, mamulak man sad. 

hahaha! we'll be waiting to see more pictures of your garden. Good to see another person with a green thumb!

I love to teach, Glacier, and more, I love to help people.

Its good to give back to those who ask questions on a certain medical problem; this way they are better informed when they visit their physicians next time, or inquire about certain drugs that their physician did not tell them about.

Medical Students are called to inform the public. Knowledge is to be shared, not hoarded.
That is my view on this.


Lorenzo.

That is my voice, Glacier.

Ingna pood, "dili baja sila mo palit ug calcium channel blocker, ace inhibitor, thiazide diuretics! so ajaw pag worry dinha! ikaw ra man ma sakitan."

True tho.

PS. I take it you are in the medical field?

these days I catch myself telling my mom and my friends

"Sus, pasagdi na sila, dili na silay mobayad sa imong botox kung magka wrinkles ka tungod nila. Dli sad sila mopalit ug lunesta kung mawad-an ka ug tulog...ug ma high blood ka, dli bya sila manglibre ug lipitor" hehehe !

What a wise woman you are, my friend! Wise and beautiful (please accept my compliment, as God is kind to you in giving you beauty (brains and appearance). Your husband is lucky!

To comment to your post; that is true. I had to tell my girlfriend the same thing as she is a 1st year medical student and dealing with jealous individuals and giving her a hard time. I had to tell her "Don't worry about them, let them talk as much as they want, you have to focus on studies and getting good grades. They are jealous and talk ill about you because you are beyond their expectations; the envious soul will hate what it cannot compare to. Just focus."




Forward!

my liver adobo is only a can of pineapple and chicken liver, simmer for the next 30 minutes or until mauga gamay ang pineapple juice. I'll try the green peppers next time. :-)

Here is the biochemistry of the additives:

1. The green peppers adds the beta carotene to your Iron-rich liver(chicken), which is effective and healthy for the eyes, especially for your rods and cones (great for night vision!)

2. When you add the potatoes, its rich in starch and carbs, and will absorb the irony taste of the liver, thereby mitigating and appeasing the flavor, and adds in a richy sauce when the potatoe begins to cook and mash up.

3. I also add in onions, so as to add flavor.

~~

Additionals:

a. Black pepper
b. White pepper
c. a tad bit of curry powder (not so much, we're not going bombay mode here, ha ha)
d. a little bit of brown sugar (a teaspoon's worth)

then add in a little of soy sauce (not so much as it leads to excessive sodium reabsorption and increases pre-load; for those who are hypertensive and pre-hypertensive, this is a no-no!, lol!
Add a little bit of vinegar (or what i do, i use lemon juice! citrus flavor is great; plus a great source of ascorbic acid!)

And wala!

Enjoy!@~

How adorable is your little one! So cute!

To the members that have sent me emails on health topics, I will refrain from answer your pms personally, but rather, answer your questions via this thread. I will produce more videos that involves your medical questions as i have received over 20 pms regarding health questions. I thank you for your concern and thoughts in this, and to better serve everyone, it will be answered in this thread. I have sent all of you pms that have the link to this thread. So for those who are active 'readers' but not active 'posters', this thread is for you guys.



So, let us begin.



Bran

Lami lagi na 'te, pero daghang zamo na ug Sodium!
Maka highblood! Mo take na lang mo ug Captopril ug Lisinopril!

Hubag Bohol, these all refer to self love; ie, masturbation.

Asexual tendencies.

When I was in my late teens and early 20s, i will admit that i never looked into long term relationships, it was mostly for that time and for that purpose ra jud. You know when you are a young man, your judgement is 'whack' and not in the right place, and put priority on things that really don't matter.

It is true that with time, a man wisens up, but not always. As I know there are men in their 40s and 50s that are still immature, pero for the most part, a man does learn through experience. Sometimes its best to go through the School of Hard Knocks (Life experience!).

Where there women in the past that i dated and had relationship with that could have been potential long term? Sure, there were. But the mindset that i had at that particular time in my life was not in the direction of settling down and long-term.

Its a lesson jud, bitaw. A strong and powerful life lesson.

my first bf, 2 months older than me in High School... we turned out as very good friends but we didn't work out as BF-GF even though ang ubang ka batch namo, happily married na karon ug naa nay mga anak. We're still in touch and he even helped with my wedding prep to my hubby.


my 2nd BF, 1 year older, ensakto kay preha mi ug birthday....matay, mao jud to pangmovie, kumpleto kaayo. pinangga kung pinangga...asa ka, flowers for no reason, hinatod kinuha, alaga kaayo, pero sobra ka possessive ug seloso....unya pa jud, sa pagpaningkamot, ni abot nalang ko ug 4th yr college, 1st year level pa japn sha. Among joint account, akoy tig sulod pero siya tig withdraw...peskot !  goodbye nimo Dodong, kuwang ug ambisyon, manapat pa jud !!!!


my old old suitor...I was 19, he was 53...to be fair, gwapo bya sad siya murag dagway ni harrison ford, abi sa mga taw nga 39 pa kuno kay kwartahan man, grabe pud mo work out..every week, padala ug 3 dozen roses, nailhan nagud sa LBC among balay. hahahah ! Mura bya sad ug maka develop, pero sa akong huna2, pagka sagwa oi, 49 pa bya akong Papa...aggeeeejara ! Human, ug mo gimik mi sa barkada, magselos ang pakno bisan sa mga pictures, hasta mga ig-agaw nako gi selosan.

Hoy !!! pahuway jud Lolo ! labad ra...wala pa gani nako sugta, naa nay K mag selos. gipanuhot pud ning usa...mao to goodbye nasad

my husband....6 yr gap. Maayo mo pailob sa akong ga kabuang, mosukol ug inom sa akong barkada ug sa akong pamilya. Responsable, ambisyoso (in a good way) pero mo andar sad ang pagka garaon. I feel very blessed jud. Nakita kog taw nga makasakay sa akong kaboang nga masakyan sad nako.


I think depende man siguro sa batasan sa babaye ug sa lalaki in question, dili man siguro sa age. Naa mga Fil-am couples akong nailhan nga tag 30 yrs gyud ilang gap pero malipayun man sad. going strong. Naa hinuon duol2 ug age gap, nagdivorce nuon kay wala nagsinabtanay.

Sauna, vocal jud ko kaayo kay sagwa bya sad, pero through the years nga naa sad ko mga pinay nailhan in those situations nga normal ra kaayo sila, their marriage is even better than kadtong dili sagwa tan-awa. It gave me a moment of pause.

Truly, it depends sa partners in question. 

In other words, age does not matter in the end. Diba? I myself can subscribe to the same situation as my current gf and I have only a small age gap. I love her mucho mas. I must admit. True love jud ni.

Thanks for your touching life lesson, Alc. Teaches all of us a lesson.

This is a verse that many of us should read and take into consideration.


it complements, "do unto others as you would have others do unto you." (Luke 6:31)





PEACE!

Of course! HIV infection is due to blood contact! Most common route for HIV spread is:

1. IV Drug abusers (sharing needles)
2. For homosexual men, it is anal intercourse, as the epithelial lining on the anus is quite thin, anal intercourse is the surest way to spread HIV amongst the homosexual male population (especially if they are practicing unprotected sex)
3. Blood transfusions (if the blood is not screened, not a concern in the United States, but is a concern for other nations)

Raquel, how long did it take for these radishes to grow? Something that we dont grow---its radishes, but its something that i love to put in soup! Thanks for giving me an idea!

That said, one has to read in between the lines when you read the bible. Or at least ask frequent questions when studying it. Its okay to ask questions, its okay to make remarks. Sige, peace to all!

One Love~~

I have a friend, 'te, she is a doctora from General Santos (sa mindanao) or as she refers to it as "GEN SAN". I always laugh whenever we talk because the first time i met her she knew i was bol-anon. How did she know?

She said to me, dodong bran, i can tell you are from BOHOL!
I asked her, how did you know?
She then said to me that if you were cebuano you would have sayd "Gyud, Siya, Kaayo"
but instead i used the 'J' kono. "Jyud, Sija, Kaajo"

She made a joke that cracked me up.

How a bol-anon spells Moon.
"M, O, O pa gajud, N dajon!"

hahahaha!

katawa ko jyud.

on that note, magluto sa ko panihapon for me and my dogs  mag share mi sa atay sa manok..luod naman ug maabtan pa ug ugma, so ilahon nalang nang sobra nako.

1 can pineapple + 1 lb chicken liver = Happy Ging2, Huck dog and Hardydog   

Yes, that is very true. And more the reason why this verse comes to mind.
Let us not give pearls to swine, meaning ani, don't give honors or mind those who you know will only talk ill about you. It is best not to give them honors, as they will denounce you as they will denounce the very fabric of faith that they are supposed to be in. Live and let live.

Or in contemporary terms; do with what you may, knowing that you do good and mean good for those around you, despite the ill others say about you. Mao ni ang meaning sa "sleeping at peace at night". Sound mind. Sound faith. Firm resolution.

~~

That said, make sure you add potatoes and green peppers to your chicken and chicken liver.
My dog (kaiser) loves chicken liver n beef liver galing. Cooked, that is. ha ha.

Thanks for your input, Alcyx

Actually, this biblical verse is a guiding light on moral decency. Something that this current generation is lacking.

I hope that clears it up; and no this biblical verse, to answer Ms Da Binsi, is not literally professing antagonism to dogs, but in symbolic to individuals that are crass, and talk ill to those of the faith.

I hope that helps.

God Bless.

Quote from: ms da binsi on April 26, 2010, 10:47:38 AM
you didnt get what i mean! why use these animals for symbols? if they are gods creations?

swine for backbiters? it is way too far of a symbol!

It is in symbolic reference, actually, considering the fact that dogs and swine (pigs) are considered unclean animals in Judaism and in the Old Testament. The contemporary Christian may no longer subscribe to the notion of the uncleanliness of dogs and swine, as Christ was considered as the purification of the Law. However, in all case and purposes, the refrence to Dogs and Swine is clearly indicating to backbiters, heresayers, and gossipers.

Swine is used because it refers to those who profess the faith, but at the minute will denounce the teachings and the faith that was given to them (a hypocrit believer).

Dogs and swine were Jewish terms of contempt for Gentiles. This saying may originally have derived from a Jewish Christian community opposed to preaching the gospel (what is holy, pearls) to Gentiles. In the light of Matthew 28:19 that can hardly be Matthew's meaning. He may have taken the saying as applying to a Christian dealing with an obstinately impenitent fellow Christian (Matthew 18:17).

4. Are there plans in building more businesses in downtown Valencia?

Jun, when are you going back to Valencia? Regads, ha!

Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, brotherly kindness [phileo], and in your brotherly kindness, love [agape]. (2 Peter 1:5-7)

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, because this is right. Honor your father and motherâ€"which is the first commandment with a promiseâ€"that it may go well with you and that you may have a long life in the land”

(Ephesians 6:1).

“Hear this, you elders; listen, all you inhabitants of the land. Has anything like this ever happened in your days or in the days of your ancestors? Tell your children about it, and let your children tell their children, and their children the next generation” (Joel 1:2-3).

“Now if anyone does not provide for his own relatives, and especially for his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever” (1 Timothy 5:8 ).

“Listen to your father who gave you life, and don’t despise your mother when she is old” (Proverbs 23:22).

“You are to rise in the presence of the elderly and honor the old… I am the Lord” (Leviticus 19:32).

“Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father, younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, and with all propriety…” (1 Timothy 5:1-2).

The individual that I am referring to is not my uncle, nor anyone in my family, but a family friend. This incident is ocurring now.

I am not happy in hearing these cases, and after reading your post, Palu-Palu, i am only more disheartened at the state of events in Valencia.

There must be an appraisal of events; after negative feedback.

Quote from: ms da binsi on April 26, 2010, 02:01:23 AM
What about the aged men? Does your bible say something about aged men?

Indeed, the Lord tells us in Titus Chapter 2.

“Older men are to be self-controlled, worthy of respect, sensible, and sound in faith, love, and endurance. In the same way, older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to much wine. [They are] to teach what is good” (Titus 2:2-3).

This is to be taken in symbolic reference, Ms Da Binsi, dogs and swine, is referring not to animals, but to wicked individuals.

Dogs in this case and swine are those who are backbiters, those who talk about other people behind their back, and continue and proliferate heresays and falsities. This verse tells us not to give honors to those who are wicked to us, as they will mitigate everything.

It is essential when reading the bible, you read it in groups as well as with a theologist or those who are more profound in scriptural interpretation and message.

You asked a good question, and made a good point, however, this verse is to be taken symbolically.

Have you? How did you cope?

Curvy and brainy, what a great combo.

How men attract women through underwear
ABS-CBN

LONDON - Men only buy their own underpants when they are hoping to entice a potential partner into a relationship, according to a new survey.

The poll by British retailer Debenhams showed that men normally leave the purchasing of their underwear to their mothers until about the age of 19, relatively late when compared to women, who start buying their own knickers around 13.

Between the ages of 19 and 23, men tend to buy their own underwear, up to 31 pairs a year in the belief that wearing new underpants is an essential prerequisite to a relationship.

Buying declines gradually to zero between 23 and 33, because most men are in stable relationships and leave the shopping to their partners, unless they are still on the prowl.

"Our research shows that you can tell when a man is looking for a partner by the number of new underpants they buy for themselves," said Debenhams Head of Men's Accessories Buying, Rob Faucherand.

"If he buys more than 31 pairs every year then he's either still trying desperately to impress the woman in his life -- or else she's not The One," he said.

'Shop for me, baby'

However, Faucherand said that if your man seldom goes to the underwear section on his own, and instead assumes that you will choose for him, then you can be certain that your relationship is in a very stable phase.

The survey also reveals that underwear-buying among men picks up again briefly between the ages of 38 and 40, when some men are going through relationship break-ups and seeking new partners again.

The incidence of this new-found purchasing enthusiasm is short-lived however. It goes into a sharp decline and slumps to zero again at the age of 44 when men mostly find themselves in another stable relationship.

After 44, most men remain strangers to the underwear department for the rest of their lives, handing all responsibility for their underwear to women, Debenhams said.

"This is the one issue that feminism has never addressed," Faucherand said. "It's not who wears the pants in each household -- it's who has to buy them that counts."

This is to generalize that a particular man wears undergarments when he sleeps. There are exceptions to every rule.

Nice very nice indeed ,i do believe Ilongos are very good cook.My mom is from Iloilo,from the Muyco clan and she was one of the best cook i know.She was a Dietecian till she retired at Bohol Provincial Hospital.She is still around age 96 and she still do a bit of cooking.God bless her..

My very good friend, Albert, is from Pase City in Ilo-Ilo Province. He is a 1st year medical student and what we would do was cook together after exams. My specialty is Adobong Baka/ Adobong Manok (Valencianon style). His specialty was making Sinigang Baboy.

I notice that the Ilonggos are very fond of sabaw/ soups.

Ilonggos are very loving people, buutan and very loving. They are renowned as cooks, and very economically motivated people. Industrious.

Ilo-Ilo City for a time competed with Cebu City for the Title of "Queen City of the South".

Both cities have rather strong Spanish Influence. There is a strong Mestizo presence in Ilo-Ilo as well as Cebu.

More rice, please.

Pochero Ilonggo


Mouth-watering.

This dish is called LASWA


Yum!

This dish is called Linaga



PS. Ilonggos are master cooks. I can testify to this.

Yea, its kinda hard when your interest in one side of the spectrum and his is on the other side. Old Time Geezer Complex na (in reference to the older man).


For me, i dated a woman who was 12 years older back in 4th year college. It was a short-term relationship. She was into high-life things, materialistic, and very seductive in her appearance, and manner of talk. Ako, very silent and listen lang ko nija. I admit that we had a very active short-term relationship, but when it came to action, i felt as if she did not perform accordingly. I was left craving with her tired.

Now at that time I was 22; during the rising peak of male hypersexuality.

Age really does matter.

He that speaketh evil of his brother, and judgeth his brother, speaketh evil of the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge. There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?


Raising false reports.

Jesus the Christ~~ Who is True God and True Man. The WORD made Flesh.

God has chosen you to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.

Thanks Manay. Proper iconography of Christ the Savior having a beard is really substantiated considering it was custom for Jewish men at the time to done the bearded look. The Romans were the ones that fashioned a more clean-look appearance.

Great thread.

This trail is over 15 miles long (going one way).
Took me about an hour and 20 minutes going one way; about 2 hours and 40 minutes back and forth.
Took some sporadic pictures , it was so beautiful.



Cycling through a neighborhood.


So it begins....




Had to cross an intersection at the halfway mark.


the unpaven paths. love it.


Lets go downhill.




Deep in. For a good 40 minutes, i could hear nothing besides the chirp of birds and rustling of trees.


the setting sun...gorgeous.

In the words of. FDR, "the only thing we have to fear, is fear itself."

Really its nothing but a cognitive adaptation to environmental stressors.
This concept of 'fear'.

Medical Reviews all day today. So much charts, so many cat scans, mri charts, and lab tests.
Seriously, im actually beginning to like the 'radiological' aspect of medicine.

I will not disclose names, for the sake of personal privacy, but I can assure you, Calle, that this is occurring.

Thank You guys.

as the saying goes,...

unconditionally in love. or drunk with love. which ever suits you.

Dear E_________________,



Do you remember the fun times in freshman year where donald, you and i would study in the basement of Walker Annex till the wee hours of the morning? Quite fun. ha?
So i heard that Donald had feelings for you, and you did not return his placations, and was disinclined to honor his request to a dinner date. I did find myself rather pitted in that situation considering the footsies that took place in those study reviews, ha ha ha. Bad girl, you are. bad girl.

Anyways, so i hear now you're doing well for yourself. Good to hear, the weather in D.C is quite warm and hospitable compared to the cold north of Allegheny, eh?

Send my regards to N, the next time you guys meet up.


Only the best,
L.

Dear L_________________,


Thanks for the warm message you sent me the other week. Didn't have the time to respond back and found myself rather in dismay due to work and cycling (a new hobby, ha). Must say that much has happened these past 2 years.
Good to hear that you're almost done law school; found a new man have you? I bet not as good.


Miss you bunches. Hugs n kisses,



Lorenzo.

Dear P__________________,


P, I am sorry for hurting your feelings. I was wretched in my actions and did not mean to make you cry. Forgive me.
I was drunk with passion and disregarded your feelings, a challenge that youth impedes on the mind of rationality and personal chivalry. I blame myself for the disregard i had on your feelings. You loved me, and i took advantage of that love.

For a while, P, i was hesitant to date because i felt bad in the hurt that i caused you. And did not want to exact the same feeling to any other woman as i did feel genuinely guilty.

You loved me with an honest love. And i gave you only 20%. Pitiful youth.

Please forgive me. It has been over 6 years since i last saw your face. And the image i have of you is your beautiful face rolling down tears. And your face emanated an image of the feeling of betrayal. I am so sorry.....



L,

Dear A_______________,


In winter of 2004, i would walk with you to the lounge, to the library,
have coffee and tea, if time allotted.

I liked you, A, but when i came back from winter break of 2004, and on january 2005, found out from donald that you  were dating another man, i was taken back. How could you not tell me that you found another man?

I never told you that i liked you, and was hurt to find out because i did like you..and was planning to tell you. However, never had the strength to profess the attraction i had to you...for fear of ruining the friendship. So i kept it inside.

I confess this now. Here.


Lorenzo

Dear R____________________,


You and i were so secretive. I don't think Lee or Tom ever knew that we were seeing each other in high school did they? Antics, antics...ha

How are you know? Do you remember my kisses?
as i guarantee you, i remember yours...



Lorenzo

Dear S L______________,


How are you? I was going over files today for work and then I stumbled on a picture of us two back in our youth.
I was brought to smile because of the realization how beautiful you looked in this picture, and the gaze that was on my face, oh years ago. I guess this was taken during our freshman year in college (some 6 years ago). Sharon, i hear now that you are in Baylor College of Medicine, as the last time we talked., I never really took your offer to visit you 2 years ago after my college graduation and after yours. Perhaps in the future, we can meet up in the old cafe shops that we used to go to,....as friends.

Ning abot man ka sa abril
ning bisita ka nako unja na lipay pood ko intawn
naka ingoon ka nako, when my eyes first laid on you on the arrival mat, "Hi darling.."
unja na hilom jud ko kai naka kujawan ko kai gwapa man jud ka ka kaajo

Ning adto ta, ning balik ta sa atong gi studyhan.
Bisan dili ta mo tingog kai mo study man jud ta, mo tanaw ko sa imung mata, sa imung nawong.
Maka hilom jud kai gwapa ka kaajo, da.

Naka hinumdum ko sa usang time, ning study ko sa deep sa gabii, alas tres sa buntag ba to..
gi prepare ka para nako ug cape, and gi tagaan pood ko daghang kisses..da!
Gi ignite man ko lagi. ha ha ha.

~~

Gimingaw ko nimo kaajo, baby cakes.
Gi mingaw ko sa ahong baji diri.

Your Love.
A.L.L Jr.

A tribute to you...~

Anberlin - A Day Late (Acoustic)

"A Day Late"

by: Bran Lorenzo





So soft your winter's lips had compressed upon the veil of my neck
and so smooht was the iresistable sensation of moist reverie
or should I feign disregard for something that was quite temptuous?

Many years ago, sweet winter lips touched on the breast of one who would dare
But why does an old love think of such tumult on years after?
I guess, i must confess that the fruit of youth
and intensity of passion culminates in mind
from time to time
leaving one to wonder and ponder on
the exquisite salutations of old

Lover to lover, kiss to kiss, bed to bed,
but I must confess, that you were my first, the one who was the attention
of an old lover's eye
but avast, such is time, such fleeting moment
wondering is nothing but a human notion and a human ordained right
so i take no harm in this
nor should you, for what was...and it remains so...a distant memory of the past.

You loved me so
I loved you then
The love of youth, some 5 years passed.

I smile at times. Regina.

I wish I'm half (even 3/4th) the man you envisioned me to be... but I know I'm not. Just enjoying the company (openess, friendliness and wisdom) of all the good people here at TB. And like you said Bene I feel just as blessed - and honored - to have met all y'all here.

As they saying goes, Father R, He works in them.

God Bless you, Father. You keep on shining God's Goodness in this forum. And HIS Truth.

Proverbs 15:33
The fear of the LORD is the instruction for wisdom, And before honor comes humility.

Quote from: benelynne on April 24, 2010, 09:43:51 AM
I've met some priests and pastors who have voluntarily confessed their past sinfulness and offer their present lives as testimony of how Christ has changed them. Regretfully, Fr. Skelton had to wait for this media barrage to come out in the open about his past. A forced confession has doubtful sincerity. Openness about one's past, especially for those who have dedicated themselves to the Gospel, is also submitting oneself to personal accountability about one's renewed life.

St. Paul in his epistles makes it a habit to open up about his depraved past as Saul, the persecutor of Christians, to drive his point of the need for man's salvation through Jesus Christ. Paul also proclaimed that we actually stand equal before God as sinners, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)

Christ himself said that he did not come for the good men, but for the bad: "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

I guess the media should stop hounding Fr. Skelton for interviews, but instead do their homework silently among those he has worked with or the youth he has surrounded himself with since he was ordained.

Needless to say, Christian faith is all about second chances. If this man is found out to have really straightened his ways, praise God! If not, he better face the music, not sing it!

Well written and well said, Tito Ben. Accountability and transparency is a must in any situation, even in most sacred of positions in human society. Forgiveness and second chances are one of the basis of Christian Faith and in the Christian Way of Life. If Skelton is truly repentant of his past sins, to God be Glory and Praise. For He is, indeed, a merciful and forgiving God. If not, then it would be best to prevent such horrific situations from occurring again.

It is hypocritical for some to debase Roman Catholic Ecclesiasy for the 1.7% of pedophiliac cases committed by clergy, when the same acts are prolific in Protestant Churches as high as 10%.

This is not a Catholic problem, but as what Father Roel tells us, a problem within the psyche of some individuals, those who have disturbing sexual fetish disorders. And should be dealt appropriately without attacking the Church itself.

1 Timoth 1:12-17
"I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service, though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent. But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,  and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. To the King of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

After going to Sunday Easter Mass.

There sits in silence in the abode of his halls,
in stark solid firm pretense.
There lays the ghost of one who would not let any in
And there the ghost sits unable to rise to eternity
Unable to vanquish his pride his iron weight his anchor in this valley.

Avast, poor ghost of some olden day
Know that no longer shall you port on the dock of day
Where can you go if not in the isle towards our march
Stay, oh stay, ever long and find your own
For as much as one can declare, freedom, more and so on.

So find yourself, old ghost of day, no longer shall you give recompense
or fill in basket of hearts of man, shall no longer suffer your sanctuary.

Retreat, for away from our bosom, for we must walk forward,
and no longer back.

You stay there on past days memory, unable to move forward, oh the misery.

Finally, at last. Liberty.

Even the light of the setting sun
cannot dim the sparkle of your smile that burns bright in my mind.

When power of the cold winds at evening there yonder brushes on my face,
still i push forward, knowing and encouraged of your return, of your smile most beautiful.

Where can I go from your smile, can I hide from it.
I think not, I know not any place.

So I will surrender to your goodness, kind and gentle one.
You who longs for me as I long for thee.

So says I, my soul.
