Okay, first of all, I would like to discuss the Da Vinci Code matter. I have heard and even believe so that the Da Vinci Code is an effort of still unknown forces fighting against the Christian Church, trying to weaken its structures. The purpose? Let's have a look at past events. The Mohammed sketches, the Alexander film, Troy. All seem to have one mission. To eliminate all signs of civilization, culture, tradition and religion. We should not let them achieve their goal, if this is their goal. Avoid letting yourself and especially the younger members of your family, look at this trash. It could be the Sionists, the antiChrist or just an atheist corporation behind it all. No matter, we have to protect values such as patriotism (and not nationalist, or racism), religiousness and above all our ethical values. The media present murder and raping as it is an everyday routine thing. It is not. We have to realise that and help other people realise it too.

Secondly, I would like to congragulate Mr. Patrick Ogunsoto, a great friend of mine and football player for Ergotelis FC and will probably join OFI Crete FC shortly, for being one of the few football players not afraid to openly declare their faith in the Catholic Church, in an Orthodox country. I still recall my suprise on looking at his car window sticker: I believe in the Catholic faith. He is a football (or as yankies call it, soccer) player that remembers to thank God first in his every minute of play, in his every goal scored. An example to all, Catholics and Orthodox.

Dear Armando,

At my church's Orthodox fellowship last night, we were discussing exactly this matter...it seems that Hollywood wants to destroy the Church and all organized Christianity because they have an agenda of of enforcing values that are contradictory to Christian values and morals.

A woman at my church says that she knew a very high ranking Hollywood executive who said that they were deliberately trying to impose sexuality on younger and younger persons...
(she said to take a look at the cartoon character of Snow White in the 1940's and her demure dress vs. the newer cartoon Snow White's dress)

It is demonic. It is spiritual warfare...and Hollywood and other country's medias could care less what health, mental, and social consequences and ramifications all this has on society.

That is why books like the DaVinci code exist...to undermine the strength and authority of organized Christian religion.

In Christ,
Alice

This all reminds me of an article I read on Spiritdaily yesterday...

After warning at LaSalette of major calamities such as storms that would shake whole cities, and mega-quakes, Mary had supposedly told seer Melanie Calvat in 1846, "Before this comes to pass, there will be a kind of false peace in the world. People will think of nothing but amusement."

I am not one to follow these things much, but this one is Church approved and sometimes it really hits home. That is all Hollywood is about - amusement. I guess free sex no matter the age is what they call amusement.

Even here in Greece, I see around me young childern aged 14+ thinking of nothing else than expensive goods and sex as being the most important things in life and you do see people that only attend Church just so that other people think highly of them. Even Greece which is a country where Church and State have not been seperated, yet you see bad examples of Christians just like in any other country of Europe and the States.

Of course talk about the antiChrist or the end of days might be a little too much, still we live times where even children innocence has been damaged by the society. It is just dissapointing.
