Dedications

The sudden olive branch extended to the Muslim community by US of A, confirms its desperation and confusion. Support Israel that is killing Muslims in Palestine; waged a war against Iraq, which is a Muslim country; fight against terror in Afghanistan killing innocent Muslims; plan to strike Iran for its nuclear plans, which is a Muslim nation and now camouflage with its melodramatic gesture to Muslims saying “Let’s make a fresh start”.

A fresh start of what Mr. Obama and what are you trying to tell the Muslim world? Are you accepting responsibility of USA for the mess in the Middle East and the world at large? If yes then the sincerity of USA needs to be applauded and commended. Unfortunately Mr. Obama the world will never trust US of A till the end of mankind. In the Iran – Iraq war you supported Iraq. When Iraq refused to play to your tunes later you waged a war against it for it occupation of Kuwait. Why not wage a war against Iran for its occupying islands of UAE, unfortunately there is not much oil to milk so you don’t see that as occupation. Why not wage a war against Israel for its occupation of Palestine or do you don’t see that, as if you dare to see it then Israel will blind the US of A forever as its economy is a prostitute in the hands of Jews. Why not wage a war against India or Pakistan as both are claiming parts of Kashmir to be theirs? Unfortunately you cannot with Pakistan as you are in bed with them and you need them in your fight against so called terrorism, as in the garb of funding the so called fight, you supply them with monetary assistance and arms to fight India, and claim to be friend of India. Are you blind to the atrocities in Europe against Muslims, where they are planning to ban building mosque minarets and ban women wearing veils. Just because US economy works on advertising with women as good as nude, have some respect to communities that live and honor the modesty of its women. What about religious profiling that is being carried out in US Airports after 9/11 under the pretext of security, and now you invite Muslims to US to fake peace.

USA’s dream of being a world power has failed as your military strength has been challenged right from the days of Vietnam to present day Afghanistan or Iraq. US may win a battle or two and has realized too late that it can never win a war. USA’s dream of being a financial power speaks for itself with the recent world crisis and meltdown. The day is not far when your dollar will be sold as toilet paper. Mr. Obama you are leading a nation of greed and deceit. If you can get your own citizens homeless with the subprime crisis, what assurance of protection are you giving the world? All of US divisive policies in the world have failed especially with the Muslim world. The world knows today that USA has puppeteered and orchestrated terrorism in the world. A very cheap gesture Mr. Obama now to play the religious card and this will not save the save the face of USA. By getting you a colored face or a black face as the President of US has not helped either.

You feared that the awareness of your father being a Muslim would disrupt your chances of being the President of US, that you went on record to claim that you are a Christian. Was it shameful to accept a Muslim Father? Even if you now proudly claim that your Father was Muslim and yell you are Barak ‘Hussein’ Obama will not convince the Muslim community, for that matter even if you become a Muslim it will not.

The recent (read ancient) problem of pedophile and philandering priests is a worse act than what Judas did by handing over Christ to be crucified. At least Christ was lucky that his ordeal was over in a day or two but the Catholic Church has been raped by priests over the decades. The undue advantage is the religion that has its HO operated out of the west has managed to cover up its atrocities, and will continue to do so, with its clout over governments that help to keep its dirty underbelly (literally under the belly) cloaked clean with its cassock attire and paraphernalia that the priests display during its religious rituals.

The Catholic Church is the fastest disintegrating body in Christianity and so to make to make up for its dwindling vocations; it has allowed the breakaway Anglican priests to join its gang. This in turn has created another problem as the Anglican priests are married and the Catholic priests have to live a life of celibacy. Doubt if abolishing celibacy would have any effect with the perverts that embrace a life of priesthood and most of them who treat the Church as a sucker, enjoy a comfortable life, fool the laity with their boring sermons, and sexually abuse innocents who are handled to their care to be imparted in doctrine in religious and moral values.

The Church who can show Jesus who was of Middle Eastern origins as a white man with blue eyes and make him look a poster pin up dude, can even go to any extent to cover this mess and as always it will succeed, starting with the Pope shedding some crocodile tears at a recent event to save the dastardly crocodiles in his fold. There have been cases of Popes in the past who have fathered kids, and some of the kids getting back into the gang of priesthood and few of them rising to powerful positions in the Church. Not that this does not happen with other religious orders and it’s priests, but the extent that the Catholic Church goes to cover it up with its money power is shameful.

It is no longer a case of one or few bad apples that can spoil the whole bunch, but the many in the bunch are rotten and spoilt and would bite the forbidden fruit. For the few who are dedicated my heart reaches out to them in solidarity of their faith and the great work they are doing, and I am amongst the fortunate to be a product of such Catholic Institutions and priests who have mentored and groomed me to what I am today. For the Church to clear this mess would take a long while and in the mean time there would be a spurt of self styled individuals who will start their own Churches. The Catholic Church will continue as usual racist with white men who would be at the helm of affairs as I doubt in my life I would see a black Pope. A Church, who could kill Galileo subjecting him to house arrest because he proved the earth was round, will continue killing the laity whose beliefs are unfortunately still connected through the priests.

A clear example of abuse of power is in one the Middle East countries where unfortunately it is a white man who is a bishop who belongs to a less known sect of a Roman Catholic missionary named Daniel Comboni. A new Church was commissioned in one of the governates of the country, whose majority of Catholics are from the Indian subcontinent and Far East, who know very little of Daniel Comboni, despite that the Church was named after Daniel Comboni, just because the Bishop belongs to the sect of Daniel Comboni. Couldn’t the church have a neutral name as Church of Christ, Sacred Heart, etc, or a named after a Saint from the subcontinent? The common Catholic laity expatriates mostly from Indian subcontinent who go to Middle East to earn a living, care a less after whom a Church is named, and there are priests or Bishops who would abuse their power. Ironically it is not even a priest from the Daniel Comboni sect who is the parish priest in the new Church.

Christ was definitely very lucky as there was only one Judas in his clan, but in our time we only have Judases that run the Church, and for the few genuinely religious priests in the Church my prayers would always be in their support, and for the victims of abuse and their families I join them in prayer pleading and begging God “Do not forgive them Father, for they know what they did, and what they are doing and what they will continue to do, Amen”.
