What this means is simply that I enjoy feeding off whatever emotions I can pull from someone the strongest
Love, hate, lust, it's all wonderful energy that I can absorb and use at my discretion
Now, being a psychic vampyre, I never thought a day would come that I would fall prey to one of the lesser parasites of the pagan world: the Body Snatcher
A less form of a psychic vampyre, the body snatcher has no shame and no common sense on whom makes good prey.
A Body Snatcher is a person with no real personality of their own, they tend to be loud and pull the things they know will amuse people from other's personalities and try to make themselves into someone else
When they see a life they covet they go after it, they always want more. The better boyfriend, the cute kids, anything that may seem to have meaning in life they will try to take from you, and they have no real passion for their own lives, because emotionally they cease to exist. I have been her prey, much to my surprise, but only for a single day. It was the ten month anniversary between my boy and I and when the moon moved into Scorpio, the day went to Hell in a Hand-basket with rabid scorpions on the side. It was not a pretty day for Scorpios in the Northern Hemisphere
So, my body snatcher, wifey dear, finally pushed the wrong button on my boyfriend's roomie and a talk was had.After discretely meeting at Starbucks we sat and talked about this parasite I, unfortunately, have brought into my social group here. Wifey Dear has been spreading a horrendous rumour that I'm boning my Buffalo Soldier, which I'm not. She told the roomie this first off, and then proceeded to make a large mistake
Now, you must understand that the roomie and I are cute from the same cloth, so should one of us tell the other that we're boning our seventeen year old friends, we keep it ourselves and laugh maniacally when it falls apart.
It's what we do, so when Wifey Dear to the roomie that I hated her and that I had paranoid delusions about the roomie and my boy hooking up and knocking me out of the picture, the roomie came to me
Also, it's worth mentioning that on Thanksgiving, Wifey Dear decided that she was going to sleep naked in the same bed as the boyfriend and myself, who were also naked
Before she had time to pass her drunk ass out, however, she ran downstairs, naked and wrapped
Miracles appear in a variety of faiths; from Buddhism to Christianity to the Hindu mystics of India
Often they are reported to encourage the faithful to remain steadfast in their belief
Generally, when an individual performs a miracle great deference and respect is shown to him or her
The miracle worker is considered to be above the common folk in a moral sense by virtue of his or her supernatural abilities.
There is, however, a dark side to the supernatural.
For example, in Voodoo it is said that some practitioners use their arts to turn people into zombies
If we accept that some miracles are possible, then perhaps these are, as well
How ethical is it to turn a person into a zombie? I would be inclined to think that this is an immoral use of power
Alternatively, how moral would it be to raise someone like Adolf Hitler from the dead? Again, I think such would be an immoral use of power.
From this it would seem that there are good miracles and evil miracles
Clearly, however, what makes a miracle good or bad is independent of its supernatural origins, since both types are inherently supernatural, yet they differ in their moral character
Evidently, when a miracle is performed it is not necessarily a good thing simply because it is a miracle
One must make a moral determination for every miracle performed, weighing the various moral facets of the case.
What does that really prove? That his powers come from God and are therefore good? Not necessarily
I can think of at least two other possible explanations for such a feat
1) His powers come from Satan or whatever name you wish to give to the Forces of Darkness
Or alternatively, 2) his powers are psychokinetic, that is, he is a natural psychic and his powers have nothing to do with God or Satan. Basically, we have three possible explanations: a supernatural good force, a supernatural evil force, or a supernatural ability that is inherently neutral in character
There may be other possible explanations, but these three suit the purposes of this article
In the absence of other data, we can't conclude one way or the other about what the true origins of the ability are
Supposedly he performed numerous miracles in the course of his life including walking across water, raising the dead, healing others, and even coming back from the dead himself
Have you ever headed off to your favorite restaurant to order your favorite dish, and when it came it wasn't as good as you remember? That sums up Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
The "dish" you wish, was as good if not better than the last time around
In this fourth installment in the series of movies, Dr Jones (Harrison Ford) has to race against Russian bad guys to find an alien artifact that may be used as a weapon if it gets into the wrong hands.
It also may be the key to the lost city of gold, which interests Jones the most
Along the way he has to mentor young Mutt (Shia Le - Beouf), rescue his old flame, Marion (Karen Allen), keep an eye on his old friend, Mac (Ray Winstone), who just may be a spy, and decipher the cryptic mutterings of Professor Oxley (John Hurt).
Set in the late 1950's, this movie manages to deal with the Roswell alien incident, the threat of the nuclear age and the Communist hysteria (Mc - Carthyism)
What the movie doesn't deal with is surprising the viewer with something new
Getting from point A to B has never been so lackluster
Sure there are a few laughs, and sure there are the fights and chases; but you have seen them all before
The real trouble is when you know that they are coming too
Harrison Ford is doing what he does best and you can't be disappointed with his performance
He and Le - Beouf have a good rapport as Le - Beouf plays the young kid with a chip on his shoulder and reminds Jones of himself when he was younger
Karen Allen is just as spunky as she was in Raiders back in 1981, but it is a shame that she isn't featured more otherwise
