It is about getting better...

According to Peter Drucker,  as he wrote about management, the more is drawn nearer the Scriptures.   A manager/management writer has to be near the truth and the light.   For example, he said that one of the most elusive truth in a business is the P and L.  Depending on your accounting policy, you could always alter the bottom line.

Thus you have to find the truth and when you are nearer the truth, you become nearer the Light.  And the Light is the  Lord.

The Proverbs 6:23 says that the the commandment is the lamp and the law is the light.   Thus Peter Drucker and Proverbs are convergent.  There is a truth in commandments that correspond to the teaching of the Scriptures.

Jesus Declares I am the light of the world, the truth shall set you free John 8:25 -58

From the Gospel  of St Thomas  114 Sayings from Gospel of St Thomas (not in NT)

From Verse 61.6

5) Therefore I say: If someone becomes < like > (God), he will become full of light.
But if he becomes one, separated (from God), he will become full of darkness.

Verse 77:   Jesus says:
(1) “I am the light that is over all. I am the All. The All came forth out of me. And to me the All has come.”
(2) “Split a piece of wood — I am there.
(3) Lift the stone, and you will find me there.”


One of the interesting points in the Gospel of St Thomas is that the Kingdom of God is here at hand.   There is a divine light within all of us, we just  need to open our eyes.  We should restore earth nearer to the Kingdom of God.  That means a  lot  of Christian hard work to bring peace prosperity, lessen hardship, sickness, accidents, war and the like.  To help one another  as children of God

Which is better mortality or immortality?

It is about getting better...

Rizal Philippines

In our lives we are confronted with the question of death.  Thus diseases, Alzheimer, longevity and health are important concerns as we grow older. And this is the question addressed by Discovery Science  through the wormhole with Morgan Freeman   "Can you cheat death?"

There are methods that certainly does that:

1.  Stem cells.  We can regenerate our aging organs using embryonic stem cells.  However as we grow older, we get less and less of embryonic stem cells

2.  Discovery  of the ability of some sea creatures to regroup together even if they are cut, and /or regenerate by a Korean scientist.  We still have to find a way how this can be done or applied

3. Genetic re engineering.  Some of the genes can be spliced and re  ordered so that cancer, and other corruption of genes are corrected.  It has been done in pigs.

But what is better for the specie?  Immortality or Mortality  There is game simulation where the survival of mortals and immortals were compared.  The immortals initially won but later on the mortals got the better of the two because of their ability to get better healthier younger and stronger players in the field.  Why as individuals we want immortality, for the human race, mortality ensures the progress and winning of the human species.
