Graphology’s Great Advantage

Graphology seemed to outdo astrology, so I dedicated some time to studying graphology. But seemingly outdoing astrology with respect to assessments wasn’t my only reason for learning graphology. I had read another article on graphology. It was a very short article and only described an experiment of a psychologist. He wanted to see whether a […]

Astrology Invalid Because Requiring Determinism?

Some critics of astrology say that astrology must be invalid because astrology would require determinism instead of free will to be true in order to deliver valid results. Other critics demand that astrology must be empiric and mustn’t derive results from deliberating. I understand the latter argument very well and would prefer it this way, […]

Everything Forgiven or You’ll be Judged? (Part 7)

What would happen if God forgave everything? God can forgive everything. But would be the consequences if God’s mercy would in every possible case override justice?

The German Concept of the Sword

I did read somewhere on the Fighting Arts blog that nowadays everybody in the West knows what is a katana, but wonders what the heck is an epee. I can agree insofar as English isn’t my mother tongue, so I had to look up the word. An epee is ein Degen in German. Every child […]

The Spiritual Works of Mercy

The Seven Mercies are also known as the corporal works of mercy. Their standard list is given by Jesus in Chapter 25 of the Gospel of Matthew, in the famous sermon on the Last Judgment. The variant from Langenschwalbach/ Bad Schwalbach differs insofar as strangers instead of the homeless are sheltered. Langenschwalbach probably had no […]

Everything Forgiven or You’ll be Judged? (Part 6)

When talking about judgement, then this implies that punishment will follow. Hence to understand the purpose of punishment is important. Many Clerics and also many of those people, who comment on contemporary policies, have wet dreams about doing harm to other people. They vindicate their sadism by some sort of alleged justice. As actually should […]
