A friend of mine told me a few weeks ago that some people in his village got into serious difficulty. It was a couple with a young, one year old boy. The wife was unable to work due to some sickness she’d been having for a while. The husband just got a job after being unemployed for a long time.

Jesus – Prosperous or Poor?
by László Balogh
I hear of so many discussions and arguments about how to fix the world. Which way of governance, what type of economic system is the best? Conservative, liberal, capitalist, socialist? People can get very heated over these issues. We have seen all of these political and economic approaches in operation in the past, but somehow they all get shipwrecked on the way. There is always something that corrupts the process. Somehow we just don’t get them to work as they’re supposed to. Why is that?
PRO-THIS, ANTI-THAT

I find it more and more true that we live in an increasingly polarized world. There is so much division over almost every issue. There are artificially created boxes people are being put in depending on their views, opinions and beliefs.
GOD’S NOT DEAD
by László Balogh
For many people the greatest roadblock to finding faith is that they see no evidence of God. I have to say here, that of course there is evidence, but you have to do a little looking and searching. God is not popular in the mainstream media, so you won’t find anything there.
WHICH ROBOT?
by László Balogh
I’m pretty sure most of us are aware of the evolution of AI, and have seen some amazing displays of robotics before. It is also a much-loved theme of a number of sci-fi movies, which I actually enjoy watching. Some people are excited about the prospects AI can offer, but others rather differ. Will this technological advancement improve our lives, or will it eventually turn against us? Continue reading WHICH ROBOT?
WHO KILLED THE MAN?
by László Balogh
Every once in a while you encounter comments from people who don’t seem to understand the concept of God saving the world. To them God seems like an eccentric worship-crazed tyrant, who “will save you from his own wrath, if you believe in him”. And “he won’t throw you in hell if you bow down and worship him” – and such things.
BRAVE NEW “ME”

Please understand the strong sarcasm in the following short writing. But first, watch this video I posted here. It’s only about four minutes long.
GOD SHOULD HAVE INTERVENED
by László Balogh
Just recently I watched an interview with a Christian pastor. He was being asked some weighty questions and at one point the interviewer said he just couldn’t understand that something as horrible as the holocaust happened and God didn’t stop it. How can God allow such evil?
On Derren Brown’s “Miracles for sale”
by László Balogh
WHAT I AGREE WITH
A few days ago I watched “Miracles for Sale” by Derren Brown and I had a number of thoughts after that. Basically, Derren Brown exposed what was already exposed. It was not that necessary to make a profitable TV show out of this because any honest pastor could have told you that these things are happening in the church.
NOTHING NEW ABOUT THE NEW AGE

SUMMARY OF CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS
According to New Age philosophy, Christ is an inward state of awareness and divine being that can be accessed by each person. Christ is ultimately who we are, and our true nature is union with God. Christ is a nature we tap into in our purest, formless state of being. Christ consciousness is a state of realizing that one is as Christ was – unified with God. So, Jesus actually became Christ by realizing that he was God at his innermost core. Therefore we are all God, we just haven’t realized it yet.
