The capture (surrender ?) of self proclaimed appointed Son of God Pastor Apollo Quiboloy probably marks the end of era for self proclaimed Messiah, and gives meaning to Scriptures admonition of being wary of false prophets (or even false Messiah)
He is not God, and the alleged abuse, of children and women, profligacy need to be investigated among pastors, heads of churches. We had transactions with an alleged Bishop (with only 85 members) who owns two multi million peso condos in QC.
More discernment needed among the flock of their heads. There was a head of church involved in multi billion peso scam....(What happened?)
Should the same be addressed to other heads of Christian religion...?
When we reach the limit of our patience and understanding of justice by men, we look up to Divine intervention and justice.
1. We do not need to look very far as in neighboring second largest economy located in Asia which has made life difficult for our fisherman, driving them away from their traditional fishing grounds. What has happened to their country.
1. About 90% of their population is infected with Covid19;
2. Unknown number has died;
3/ Firms which used to do the manufacturing in the country are leaving in droves because of
1. Desertion of employees of their work due to pandemic
2. Anti big tech policies, anti business Communist Party
2. A number of employees we had who stole company money unexpectedly died.
3. The eldest daughter of a City Officer died after he stopped interments in an approved memorial park. A wealthy man was shot to death maybe due to a business scam. But he was known to have caused difficulties for the dead in a right of way squabble.
Some people take laws in to their hands for double cross. We were in effect scammed by a City Govt official for asking us for several millions but the paper he gave us was dishonored by another govt agency. Well he has brand new kidney. Isn't that Divine Justice
Why are there so many corruupt and bad officials abound, even if your mission is to do good
Avoiding dating scams. Professing love early on. Very few posts and pictures, Lady military personnel
Despite the huge number of PNP force, and more laws, we still see plenty of crimes being committed:
1. Scammers
2. Bike thieves
3. Motor vehicles scams
4. Investment scams
What could be the cause:
1. Higher standards of living, causing people to seek more get rich scheme
2. Growing poverty
3. Higher sophistication of perpetrators
4. Perception that it is acceptable - not many gets caught, and many leaders setting bad example
What ever the cause is, these occurrences must stop. Perhaps we lack value formation. Perhaps the church and the parents have failed into moulding children to be good. And avoid get rich quick scheme
A man defeated 3 experts: a professor, a sharpshooter and champion kayaker. Of course he cheated.
Featured at Discovery
How did he do it?
1. Defeating the professor
A 12 year old boy defeated a 50 year old mathematician from Oxford a South Korean, in a quiz with difficult questions. The boy was coached via hi frequency beeps One beep for A, two beeps for B, and three beeps for C. The frequency was at 17 K audible only to the twelve year old boy. The 50 year old professor is only good for 12 k sound. I could not hear that beep (being 67)
2. Defeating the sharpshooter
The man had rifle with laser. The challenge was to hit the balloons with black and white on top of the other. The sharpshooter would shoot black over white, the man white over black. Each balloon shot incorrectly meant 15 seconds penalty. The sharpshooter scored 45 seconds. The man 15 seconds. How did he do it. The laser penetrated over the white balloons and the man actually had to shoot away from the balloon. The laser from the gun burst the balloon, not the bullets. For the sharpshooter, he set up the balloons in such a way that they were close and the sharpshooter would make more mistake
3. Vs. the champion kayaker.
The kayaker did the 1 km rowing in 11 minutes +. The man did it in only 5 minutes. How, he waited for the tidal wall coming up the river and rowed with it. The tidal wall pushed him fast
Ruby Tuason, former staff of Sen. Jinggoy Estrada and social secretary of fmr president Erap Estrada has returned to the country to testify in connection with the PDAF anomaly. She is accused to have received a total of P242.775 million in connection with the P900 million Malampaya fund anomaly. Investigators believe that there are principals behind the receipt of the said amount. She is one of those who is accused in pork barrel scam and the P242.775 million is the biggest to have been received.
Tuason is charged before the Ombudsman in connection with the P10 billion PDAF scam involving Janet Lim Napoles, Ben Hur Luy, if we remember
In the TV interview today, she admitted having received the said amount in behalf of Sens. Estrada and Enrile
Our friends remarked and they are under BIR tax audit, that voluntary willful payment of taxes would have been the order of the day were it not for the PDAF and DAP events. It would have been tuwid na daan and many would be willing to pay their taxes promptly and faithfully. But not after PDAF. With the wanton wastage of the taxpayers money, with the plunder and stealing that is going on at the highest level (without the PNoys knowledge) we cant expect belligerence or revolt on the part of the taxpayers. Their agressiveness in tax collection should be matched with care and diligence how that money must be spent
When it is disaster time, many kind and compassionate individuals come out to help. It is a time for unscrupulous (or heartless individuals) to take advantage of others. Many donations do not reach the beneficiaries. Sending of donations to NGO are being scammed/diverted to private accounts. Some NGO or their accounts may be spurious.
In the 90s after the Pinatubo eruption, I was a reservist and I quit the reservist activities though how much it meant to me as a Filipino citizen because of what I saw.
l. The relief goods were being hijacked by people alleging they are LGU officials, paramilitary or what have you. This was not much of a problem. in the relief operations, we had security force.
2. The relief goods were pilfered. In many boxes supposed to be containing l44 units, most the boxes we opened contained only l00 pcs. (We put the items in plastic bags for distribution)
3. The relief goods we saw being received at the main receiving center could not be seen at the evacuation centers like army and navy blankets, the tents with gensets from Japan. Was there substitution or MFF term - switching?
4. The worse thing was that the men in uniform used the event for their petty corruption. The one day day operation became two days. But we spent for our lodging at the governor's resort. From what I heard, the attendance sheet we signed were used as vouchers for: board and lodging, patrol allowance and what have you. As to who got the allowances, do not ask me?
