Our hope is that we could find individuals and families to &quot;adopt from a distance&quot; each child in his orphanage. You would get the child&#39;s name, age and picture. You would commit to writing to your child at least once every 1-3 months. Once a month would be best if you could, even if it were just a post card sometimes just letting them know you are thinking about them.&nbsp;</p><p>If you wanted, you could send them little surprises throughout the year every now and then such as crayons and coloring paper, a book or a small toy or even an article of clothing.&nbsp;</p><p>You could pray for your child by name every day. You could make a real difference in an orphaned child&#39;s life across the world by showing them love.&nbsp;</p><p>I need to know if there will be interest in participation in this before I start organizing it. Please let me know if you even think you MIGHT be interested in being part of this.&nbsp;</p><p><br />
God bless you all.<br />

	<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="" height="600" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/ckeditor/image/2034/c1a0febdfadfc9f07f50ddcace9452e2/jpg" width="487">&quot;While the religions of the world have a double origin&mdash;natural and revelatory&mdash;at any one time and among any one people there are to be found three distinct forms of religious devotion. And these three manifestations of the religious urge are: &quot;1. Primitive religion. The seminatural and instinctive urge to fear mysterious energies and worship superior forces, chiefly a religion of the physical nature, the religion of fear. &quot;2. The religion of civilization. The advancing religious concepts and practices of the civilizing races&mdash;the religion of the mind&mdash;the intellectual theology of the authority of established religious tradition. &quot;3. True religion&mdash;the religion of revelation. The revelation of supernatural values, a partial insight into eternal realities, a glimpse of the goodness and beauty of the infinite character of the Father in heaven&mdash;the religion of the spirit as demonstrated in human experience.</p>]]></description>

Religion influences social reconstruction directly because it spiritualizes and idealizes the individual citizen. Indirectly, cultural civilization is influenced by the attitude of these individual religionists as they become active and influential members of various social, moral, economic, and political groups. 99:3.3</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png"></p>]]></description>

<span style="color: rgb(42, 55, 68); font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;">Socrates believed that philosophy should achieve practical results for the greater well being of society. He strongly believed that human choice was motivated by the desire for happiness. He believed this could be achieved by truly knowing ourselves and the greater we know ourselves the greater the ability to make choices that will bring us the everlasting happiness we desire.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(42, 55, 68); font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;"><img alt="" height="113" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-02-Thick-Shadow.png" width="569"></span></p>]]></description>

And I personally think that if everyone has their own ideas, and they are not harmful to others -- why not just let them have those ideas, and not argue your own perspective so aggressively. As long as we all have our Spiritual roots plugged into the same Universal Father, why not let everyone have their own personal views of it all.</p><p>Privilege is won by those with self-control. Liberty without license is born in those who have mastered their own selfish desires. Freedom born of Power is only for those who have stripped themselves of their self-pride, and steadfastly refuse to use that power for their own self-enhancement. These freedoms born of personal self-control and unselfish desires foster a strong and peaceful civilization.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="113" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-02-Thick-Shadow.png" width="569"></p><p><span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Morontia Mota ~ #6</strong></span><br />

My brain, and body mind, cannot do more than they were created to do in my life. If I work hard, and pay attention, and have faith, I might just be able to develop all the potential that was given to me to use in life. Spiritually I learn each and every day about life and deep personal spiritual Values. I have free-will decision making power to make choices in my life. I can choose to cultivate deep Spiritual Values by using my personal experience in life. But there is no way my material brain, or body mind can be programmed with &lsquo;Personal Spiritual Experience&rsquo;, I have to live it, and feelingly experience my values to grow spiritually.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-07-Divider-Line.png"></div></div><div><div>&nbsp;</div></div><div><div><span style="color: #4B0082;"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><strong>Morontia Mota ~ #3</strong></span></span></div></div><div><div>&nbsp;</div></div><div><div>Inherent capacities cannot be exceeded; a pint can never hold a quart.

On one of my writings from the Urantia Book, the one saying that God was a loving God and not a wrathful God. Someone on my Posting wrote how little I know because I&#39;d probably not read Revelations which to them shows how God is a Wrathful God.</div></div><div><div>&nbsp;</div></div><div><div>It&#39;s hard for me to understand how anyone could envision a God that was Wrathful or hateful, or angry, or needing revenge... what a scary universe that would be! People don&#39;t want their fear fooled with... I guess some like it. Even when I was a kid, and knew nothing.. I never would have envisioned God as mean or something to fear.</div></div><div><div>&nbsp;</div></div><div><div>Just&nbsp;strange&nbsp;to&nbsp;me&nbsp;to&nbsp;be&nbsp;full&nbsp;of&nbsp;fear&nbsp;of&nbsp;God!!!&nbsp;A&nbsp;simple&nbsp;look&nbsp;up&nbsp;on&nbsp;one&nbsp;beautiful&nbsp;starry&nbsp;night&nbsp;will&nbsp;tell&nbsp;you&nbsp;that&nbsp;God&nbsp;has&nbsp;more&nbsp;on&nbsp;his&nbsp;mind&nbsp;then&nbsp;being&nbsp;vengeful&nbsp;and&nbsp;needing&nbsp;some&nbsp;sort&nbsp;of&nbsp;sacrifice&nbsp;to&nbsp;give&nbsp;us&nbsp;his&nbsp;love&nbsp;--&nbsp;or&nbsp;wrathful&nbsp;and&nbsp;to&nbsp;be&nbsp;feared.&nbsp;Look&nbsp;at&nbsp;all&nbsp;that&nbsp;glory&nbsp;he&#39;s&nbsp;created&nbsp;and&nbsp;tell&nbsp;me&nbsp;he&#39;s&nbsp;not&nbsp;totally&nbsp;loving&nbsp;and&nbsp;supportive.&nbsp;In&nbsp;the&nbsp;end,&nbsp;God&nbsp;is&nbsp;active&nbsp;Love.&nbsp;No&nbsp;wrath&nbsp;or&nbsp;anger&nbsp;in&nbsp;real&nbsp;Love.&nbsp;Do&nbsp;you&nbsp;feel&nbsp;that&nbsp;hate&nbsp;or&nbsp;wrath&nbsp;in&nbsp;your&nbsp;love?&nbsp;I&#39;d&nbsp;say&nbsp;not...&nbsp;just&nbsp;guessing&nbsp;:-)</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png"></div></div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><a href="http://forum.spiritualfamily.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&amp;t=2472&amp;sid=0f6dc32b595fc3922adc2fe6419be1d5"><img alt="" height="100" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/photos/thumbnail/3770/master/" style="float: left;" width="100"></a><span style="color: #0099ff;">2:6.6 41.4) The affectionate heavenly Father, whose spirit indwells his children on earth, is not a divided personality &mdash; one of justice and one of mercy &mdash; neither does it require a mediator to secure the Father&rsquo;s favor or forgiveness. Divine righteousness is not dominated by strict retributive justice; God as a father transcends God as a judge.</span></div><div><br />&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="36" src="http://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-arch-01.png" width="560"></div><div><span style="color: #0099ff;">2:6.7 (41.5) God is never wrathful, vengeful, or angry. It is true that wisdom does often restrain his love, while justice conditions his rejected mercy. His love of righteousness cannot help being exhibited as equal hatred for sin. The Father is not an inconsistent personality; the divine unity is perfect. In the Paradise Trinity there is absolute unity despite the eternal identities of the co-ordinates of God.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" height="111" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png" width="1000"></div>]]></description>

A doctrinal fetish will lead mortal man to betray himself into the clutches of bigotry, fanaticism, superstition, intolerance, and the most atrocious of barbarous cruelties. Modern respect for wisdom and truth is but the recent escape from the fetish-making tendency up to the higher levels of thinking and reasoning. Concerning the accumulated fetish writings which various religionists hold as sacred books, it is not only believed that what is in the book is true, but also that every truth is contained in the book. If one of these sacred books happens to speak of the earth as being flat, then, for long generations, otherwise sane men and women will refuse to accept positive evidence that the planet is round. 88:2.7 http://www.urantiabook.org/newbook/papers/p088.htm</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="https://spiritualfamily.net/images/Bars/Bar-00-break-c.png"></p>]]></description>
