 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Big Tuna> Yes I'd assumed you'd be up on the latest sea-food related regalia, and as usual you didn't disappoint. There's something deeply disturbing about that squid, possibly because it's wearing ice skates. |

Jan-11-12 | | cormier: <<<<<<<Why does the Pope have confidence in young people as builders of peace?>
Bishop Toso: Benedict XVI's confidence in young people is based above all on two motives: the first is that young people, in face of life and the great responsibilities of the human family, believe in the possibility of a profound transformation, of the renewal of institutions, and their enthusiasm can be the engine for positive change in our societies, even becoming witnesses and leaders, enabling adults to question themselves.> The second reason is that Benedict XVI believes in the capacity of young people to intercept God, to receive Him in the midst of human history as the One who can help humanity to come out of the dark tunnel in which it finds itself. In reality, the dark tunnels that cause despair are different, disallowing even the possibility of a more just world. They are tunnels represented by the food crisis, the financial crisis, the crisis of appropriating essential resources, the ecological crisis and, above all, the anthropological, ethical crisis.> How can young people help to create a more fraternal society?> Bishop Toso: As the Message for the World Day of Peace acknowledges, young people not only have the task to be involved in the educational process, but they have a mission -- Benedict XVI states clearly -- to stimulate, to be an example to adults and to one another.> Young people especially have a youthful and genuine intuition in regard to great values and they make every effort and commit themselves enthusiastically in the small daily things as well as those that are important: respect for the environment, the fight against corruption and illegality, the implementation of justice, and dignified and respectful treatment of persons in the field of the economy, in the field of finance. With their example, they have the possibility of offering models of what could be the construction of a new society, and new human relations based on the values of fraternity, solidarity and mutual gift -- values in which young people are particularly sensitive.> It is often said that today's young people are the first generation that think that their descendants will live in worse conditions of life. However, I sincerely believe that young people of the age of globalization wish and know that they can contribute to the construction of a better, more united and solidary humanity, the humanity that Jesus Christ inaugurated with his Incarnation.> |

 | | harrylime: Do you think I should change my handle in this place ? I admire Orson Welles greatly .. but being called <Harry> I'm sure people think I'm old and uncool.. I could go back to FAB4 ..lol |

Jan-12-12
 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Harry> I advise keeping the "Harry Lime" as your main posting account. Also, there's nothing wrong with being old and uncool. The entire membership of this website is old and uncool. All chess players are uncool, except to other chess players. Luckily, nobody comes here except other chess players. Also, people like the smiling Paul McCartney. |
