Creator Course 

If you are a woman who is awakening to the love within her heart, who is aching for the planet to be healed, who has a temple of intuitive knowledge, bliss, and hope rising through her, this blog is for you! The world is transitioning into a new paradigm where the Divine Feminine is honored as sacred alongside her Divine Masculine counterpart. The old systems are crumbling – political, economical, environmental, social, familial etc., to be replaced by the New Earth Paradigm. Thanks to the patriarchal era we have come to an understanding that violence, evil, and greed are, well, a bit dumb, to say it gracefully. Women by the hundreds of thousands are being called to the forefront across the globe – often through an invisible spiritual calling, a triggering event, or through birthing a starchild – to act as a sort of modern-day high priestess, or High-Healed Priestess, as I call us.

Transferring federal fiscal obligations to states left them unable to fund their responsibilities. Problems in badly underfunded schools were exacerbated by punitive measures for artificial evaluation. Ferguson is a prime example of the GOP approach toward educating young people in the nation.

A remembrance of Michael Brown, the slain teenager, highlights our country’s low regard for educating its youth. Despite great disadvantages, Brown earned his diploma nine days before he was killed. He was scheduled to being schooling at a vocational school specializing in air conditioning and heating just a short time after he was murdered.

Brown’s graduation photograph was taken almost four months before he…

ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS ON THE KILLING OF ANIMALS, IDEAL KOSHER PRACTICES, DIVERSE RELIGIOUS VIEWS, AND ATHEISTS ON VEGETARIANISM


theburningheart's avatarKone, Krusos, Kronos

The Garden of Man

“The blood is the life, and you shall not eat the life with the flesh.”

Deuteronomy 12:23-24

The Torah gives precise details on how animals are to be sacrificed

and slaughtered (shechita). According to Rabbis Shlomo Ephraim Luntschitz

and Abraham Isaac Kook the complexity of these laws were intended to

discourage the consumption of meat. Kashrut may also be designed to remind

Jews of the magnitude of the task undertaken in killing a living being.

Peter Singer Ethical considerations for Vegetarianism

“The case for vegetarianism is at its strongest when we see it as a moral protest against our use of animals as mere things, to be exploited for our convenience in whatever way makes them most cheaply available to us. Only the tiniest fraction of the tens of billions of farm animals slaughtered for food each year—the figure for the United States alone is nine billion—were treated…
