She has written sixteen books, among these poetry chapbooks, playscripts, journals and books not specifically non-fiction but concerning topics such as ufos, the supernatural and mysticism. However, she regards each instance of unexplained phenomena as separate and does not necessarily equate the two fields of inquiry. She is particularly interested in the similarity between the lore of the supernatural, sorcery and the history of ufology.

One of the 10 commandments shows what storge love can look like: Real-life examples include parents toward children, siblings, spouses, and sometimes very close friendships. Built on a familiarity between people, the emphasis of storge is on devotion and intimacy that develops over time. Longer-lasting, it goes beyond an initial infatuation or attraction. This is the type of care that exists between family members, friends, or companions. And, he adds that they are displayed to others at their deepest and most meaningful level when they grow out of a love for God first. Lewis makes the point that all of them can, and often do, intertwine. He used translations from ancient Greek, because he knew that language had a large range of words to define what love can mean. Based on a set of radio talks he’d done two years earlier, the book presents and then explores the notion that humans are able to feel different kinds of love, depending on the situations and relationships involved. The phrase The Four Loves came from the title of a 1960 book penned by C.S. They vary in degree of intimacy and intensity, but all are meant to encourage and edify. One Christian writer found four words in particular, from ancient Greek, that capture the essence of several types of love we are capable of showing. Scripture provides many examples of how we can express devotion to each other. ![]() 5/13/2023 0 Comments Virgin soul by judy juanita![]() "The boys' story has been written," she said of the tales told of the men who were involved in the Panther movement.

It’s not an unreasonable worldview to have.īut when you get past the wide swathes of history and focus on the personal, you find the horrible truth - Nazis were human, living lives that involved other humans, most notably family and most significantly children, grandchildren, and further on, who live their lives long after the horrific reality of Nazi Germany has ceased to be the eternal present. It’s Germany that is so reviled in history, maybe deservedly, maybe not, but almost certainly because if they didn’t perfect evil, at the very least they certainly perfected the popular visualization of what it looks like and those images stay in the minds of generations of people all around the world, equating the German Nazi with the ultimate manifestation of organized evil on the earth. What is it like to be of the most despised nationality in modern history?
