http://parikramah.blogspot.com/2013/09/be-do-have-creative-imagination-faith.html
Sep 12, 2013. Be Do Have: Creativity, Faith, Works and Witnessing. The Biblical Jesus Christ reportedly said that the Kingdom of Heaven is already within those he speaks to. But he also said that the Kingdom of Heaven cannot be seen until one is born again. He also confirmed the ancient notion of the mission to establish the Kingdom of God on Earth. Being, Doing and Having (a thing) probably have little in common with one another, except the thing in itself. They are distinct mediums. That could appear c...

Feb 25, 2013. Identity and Learning: Worlds within worlds. Popular media and political parties seem to thrive on false dichotomies. Some are more transparent than others.

Is China's one-party system better than India's democracy at this stage of development? The purposes of any iteration have been looked at from four viewpoints:.
