Molesting children

Protection and prayer are important

Why do British royals, holy rollers like cardinals, and Western political elites crave pedophilia so very much? Controversial David Icke explains; the may be too disturbing to countenance or accept.

Icke has been reporting on deceased Jimmy Savile's pedophilia, child trafficking, and procurement of hapless kids for years. Yet only now with the enormous BBC scandal is Icke being taken seriously. 

An episode of the "Liberty Tactics" show features Icke (davidicke.com) where he discloses not only royal pedophilia that involved Princess Diana, but child abductions from orphanages and care homes, necrophilia, and abuse of mentally and physically handicapped individuals.

The BBC's Savile is notorious in England for his horrific sex abuses

The accusations are so shocking that no right thinking person can take them seriously at first. But Icke goes deeper to implicate unseen forces inspiring this aberrant behavior that even involves killing children in rich, influential circles. These forces first inspire then enter or "possess" a person and thereby engage in the activity by proxy, ruining various lives along the way.

Did the rich and powerful not invite them in to gain such power? So is it not, in that sense and to that extent, also their karma for which they will also meet with the consequences? And when Hollywood starlets say an "Illuminati" group

Googoo-gaga. Mmmph, you smell so good, baby. You want to see GOD tonight?

Hypocritical homosexual haven the Vatican, corporate Capital of Catholicism, moves "age of consent" up from 12

I surrender. I didn't know he was 11.

(GSN) Pope Francis has announced an overhaul of the Vatican City [State] criminal code, with the age of consent raised and stiffer punishments for pedophiles within the city state. The Holy See also known as Vatican City’s equal age of consent is being raised from 12 to 18 following the announcement of an overhaul of the Catholic Church’s criminal code by Pope Francis. [Bishops, cardinals, and visiting priests have to have some limits. They can consort in nearby Rome if they don't like it.] More
 

[Zen Buddhist] Japan finally bans child porn

Hey, kids, want to see some anime?

Possession of child pornography has finally been made illegal in Japan, but paedophilic images in manga comic books remain legal.

Japan on Wednesday finally fell into line with other major developed countries and made the possession of child pornography illegal. But the sometimes graphic images of pedophilia in manga comic books remain legal.
 
The upper house of parliament voted overwhelmingly for a bill revising laws under which only the production and distribution of child pornography had been banned.
 

"Spornosexuality": men's devolution

The legislation cleared the lower house earlier this month.
 

Campaigners had long urged Japan to toughen its stance on child pornography, complaining it was a major source of the material for global markets.
 

The new legislation bans possession of photographs and videos depicting real children aged below 18, but it does not include drawings or digitally-created imagery. More

The Mist Trail in California's Yosemite National Park takes hikers upstream along the Merced River's tumble east toward the valley. The walk winds forward and back past several beautiful waterfalls, culminating at the top of the most impressive one of all, Nevada Falls.

 

This is the view from as close as one could get to the top of the falls without getting arrested. It shows the view down into Yosemite Valley and the path along which one walks to get to this awesome view.

India declares DOLPHINS "non-human persons"

Dolphins (Jesslee Cuizon/earthsky.org)

India’s Ministry of Environment and Forests has decided to forbid the keeping of captive dolphins for public entertainment anywhere in the country.

 

In a policy statement released Friday, the ministry advised state governments to reject any proposal to establish a dolphinarium “by any person / persons, organizations, government agencies, private or public enterprises that involves import, capture of cetacean species to establish for commercial entertainment, private or public exhibition and interaction purposes whatsoever.” Why?

Social dolphins (cutepictures.co)

“Whereas cetaceans in general are highly intelligent and sensitive, and various scientists who have researched dolphin behavior have suggested that the unusually high intelligence; as compared to other animals means that dolphins should be seen as ‘non-human persons’ and as such should have their own specific rights and is morally unacceptable to keep them captive for entertainment purpose,” the ministry said....

India and landlocked Nepal have an indigenous freshwater Ganges river dolphin.

 

(Jessa Gamble/lastwordonnothing.com)

[This] happened back in May and somehow escaped worldwide attention and the 24-hour media hoopla. The effort to re-categorize cetaceans (dolphins, whales, porpoises) as non-human persons has been gathering steam since a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2011, when a group of philosophers, conservationists, and animal behaviorists attempted to gather wide support for a Declaration of Rights for Cetaceans from the scientific community.

 

The Declaration for Dolphins

1. 

   The cetacea, evolving family (wiki)

   Every individual cetacean has the right to life.
2. No cetacean should be held in captivity or servitude; be subject to cruel treatment; or be removed from their natural environment.
3. All cetaceans have the right to freedom of movement and residence within their natural environment.
4. No cetacean is the property of any state, corporation, human group, or individual.
5. Cetaceans have the right to the protection of their natural environment.
6. Cetaceans have the right not to be subject to the disruption of their cultures.
7. The rights, freedoms, and norms set forth in this Declaration should be protected under international and domestic law.

Real "demon possession" in Indiana (video)

(CNN) Exorcisms over Skype? Evangelical Rev. Bob Larson insists that the exorcisms are real.

Indiana police and Department of Child Services investigated Ammons' paranormal claims.
 

Latoya Ammons, mother of possessed (IS)

A woman and three children claim to be possessed by demons. A 9-year-old boy walks backward up a wall in the presence of [two official eyewitnesses,] a family [Department of Child Services] case manager and [a registered] hospital nurse.

 

Gary police Capt. Charles Austin said it was the strangest story he had ever heard.

• Police recorded voice of unseen being on helmetcam

(Jan. 28, '14) Child services officers in the US witnessed a 9-y.-o. boy walk

backwards up a wall...possessed by demons, according to official documents

  
Officer Austin, a 36-year veteran of the Gary Police Department, said he initially thought Indianapolis resident Latoya Ammons and her family concocted an elaborate tale as a way to make money. But after several visits to their home and interviews with witnesses, Austin said simply, "I am a believer."

 

Siddhartha faced Mara (a "devil") and "demons" (yakkhas) under the Bodhi tree.

 

Not everyone involved with the family was inclined to believe its incredible story. And many readers will find Ammons' supernatural claims impossible to accept.

 

Inside haunted house (Gary Police Dept.)

But whatever the cause of the creepy occurrences that befell the family -- whether they were seized by a systematic delusion or demonic possession -- it led to one of the most unusual cases ever handled by the Department of Child Services (DCS). Many of the events are detailed in nearly 800 pages of official records obtained by The Indianapolis Star and recounted in more than a dozen interviews with police, DCS personnel, psychologists, family members, and a Catholic priest.

 

Brown Lady ghost (answers.com)

Ms. Ammons, who swears by her story, has been unusually open. While she spoke on condition her children not be interviewed or named, she signed releases letting The Star review medical, psychological, and official records that are not open to the public -- and that are not always flattering.

 

Furthermore, the family's story is made only more bizarre because it involves a DCS intervention, a string of psychological evaluations, a police investigation and, ultimately, a series of exorcisms. It's a tale, they say, that started with flies. More

"Goblins" in Buddhism
Dhr. Seven, Amber Larson, Wisdom Quarterly Wikipedia edit

Ancient Greece, and therefore what we call the "West," inherited its mythology from India

Ancient Greek "Pan"

A kumbhāṇḍa (Pāli kumbhaṇḍa) is one of a group of dwarfish, misshapen "spirits," shapeshifting goblins, gnomes, duendes, cretins, poltergeists, among the lesser earthbound forest entities of Buddhist cosmology and Indian mythology.
 
Kumbhāṇḍa was a dialectal form for "gourd," who may have gotten their name from being thought to resemble gourds in some way, for example in having big stomachs.
 
But kumbhāṇḍa can also be interpreted as "pot-egg" -- "pot" (kumbh ) and "egg" (aṇḍa), egg being a common euphemism for "testicle." These creatures were imagined as having testicles "as big as pots," much as salacious Pan is portrayed as constantly erect phallus.
 

Modern mythical American "Goatmen" (AM)

The terms kumbhāṇḍa and yakṣa ("demon," "ogre") are sometimes used for the same creatre, yakṣa (Pali, yakkha) in these cases is the more general term, including a variety of shapeshifting entities.
 
Kumbhāṇḍas are classed as earthlings subordinate to one of the Four Great Sky Kings (cāturmahārājikakāyika devas), namely the Regent Virūḷhaka, Guardian of the South. One of the chiefs of the kumbhāṇḍas is called Kumbhīra.

Cops flee Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Police Station after "goblin" emerges from suitcase dumped there by family

Goblin (kumbhanda, duende) drawing

A family from Nketa 7 suburb dumped its tenant's "goblin" at the Tshabalala Police Station, sending cops fleeing in different directions.

The incident occurred at about 8:00 pm on Wednesday. A family that claimed a lodger owned the goblin [kumbandha, duende] brought it to the station in a suitcase.

"We heard some screaming from the charge office and most officers who had knocked off rushed to see what was happening. At first everyone gathered around the suitcase, wanting to see what was inside," said a cop.

Real goblin/kumbhanda killed? (TW)

The officer said a traditional healer who had come with the family opened the suitcase and a weird looking creature jumped out of a bottle that was filled with blood.

"No one told anyone it was time to run. One minute, the charge office was full, the next, it was empty. I think some people went out through the windows because we could not all have fitted through the door. Fat cops and slim cops all ran for their lives screaming," said the cop. More

"Elves, Ghosts, Sea Monsters, and ETs in Iceland -- Investigation into the Invisible World"

Nagas, devas, dragons, and fairies (M9)

"Enquête Sur le Monde Invisible" is a documentary by French director Jean-Michel Roux. In Icelandic towns like Hafnarfjörður and Reykjavik, a large percentage of the population believe in devas (subtle unseen beings), elves, ghosts of the dearly departed, and other paranormal entities. In fact, many claim to have seen and interacted with them. And some even claim to engage in frequent contact with them. This rare documentary is the first outside look at the strange but seemingly common events that take place on this small and remote island country. Note the similarity with mysterious island nation Ireland and its wee people and extraterrestrials. Irish slaves, in fact, were brought to Iceland.
