People must stand united against the scandal of hunger while avoiding food waste and irresponsible use of the world’s resources, Pope Francis has said.
People should “stop thinking that our daily actions do not have an impact on the lives of those who suffer from hunger firsthand,” he said in a video message launching a global campaign of prayer and action against hunger.
Organizsed by Caritas Internationalis, the Vatican-based federation of Catholic charities, a global “wave of prayer” was due to begin at noon today on the South Pacific island of Samoa and head west across the world’s time zones.
Pope Francis offered his blessing and support for the “One Human Family, Food For All” campaign in a video message released on the eve of the global launch.
With about one billion people still suffering from hunger today, “we cannot look the other way and pretend this does not exist”, he said in the message.
There is enough food in the world to feed everyone, he said, but only “if there is the will” to respect the “God-given rights of everyone to have access to adequate food”.
By sharing in Christian charity with those “who face numerous obstacles”, the Pope said, “we promote an authentic cooperation with the poor so that, through the fruits of their and our work, they can live a dignified life.”
Pope Francis invited all people to act “as one single human family, to give a voice to all of those who suffer silently from hunger, so that this voice becomes a roar which can shake the world.”
The Caritas campaign is also a way to invite people to pay attention to their own food choices, “which often lead to waste and a poor use of the resources available to us,” the pope said.
Caritas Internationalis invited its 164 member organisations and local churches to pray for an end to hunger and malnutrition, by acting on a local, national or global level against food waste and in favor of food access and security worldwide.
Caritas is urging Catholics to take a few moments at noon Dec. 10 to join the world in praying against hunger, and to engage in long-term action through raising awareness, advocacy, charitable work or other efforts supporting food security.
The right to food is part of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Food For All launch date of December 10 marks the UN’s Human Rights Day.
The Caritas campaign is calling on the United Nations to hold a session on the right to food at its 2015 General Assembly and is asking governments to guarantee the right to food in national legislation.
People can contact their local Caritas organization for more information or the campaign’s main site at Food.caritas.org.

"The Principle". Blockbuster New Science Movie.





Subject: The Principle: A Blockbuster Movie Coming to a Theater Near You!






Dear Friends,

Hello! This is Robert Sungenis, executive producer of the upcoming movie, The Principle, scheduled for theatrical release across the USA in Spring, 2014.

I am writing to invite you to see The Principle, but most of all, to help me get the message out to the rest of the world before its theatrical debut.

This movie has been three years in the making by the amazing crew of experts I know from Hollywood. (No, not everything that comes out of Hollywood is bad!)

Briefly, this will be one of the most astounding films you have ever seen, or ever will see. The material we present will simply rock your world unlike it’s ever been rocked before.

Not only do we have a shocking story to tell, we tell it with the best talent available in both the entertainment industry and modern academia, and we tell it with the best production quality available.

The attached PDF file [only a part of this given below] gives you a synopsis, with photo excerpts from our film, of the subject matter, the production personnel and the cast of characters in The Principle.

At the end of the PDF, I give you instructions on how you can help us succeed with our Internet campaign, which kicks off on Monday, December 9, 2013.

Together, let’s change the world!

I look forward to working with you.

That’s right. You heard it here first. Our 90-minute documentary, which we plan to put in theaters across the country in 2014, will show for the first time in history the shocking scientific evidence that nullifies the Copernican Principle – the modern belief that the Earth is neither unique nor inhabits a central place in the universe and that the human race has no more significance than star dust.

This is one of those movies you must see to believe. You have been told all your life by such icons as Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking and even Mr. Wizard, that the Earth is a mere speck of dust among the myriads of galaxies, lost in some remote corner of the universe with no rhyme or reason to its existence.

Well, we are about to change all that, and in a very dramatic way. I know that once you see the movie, the odds are that you will become a believer like me. For agnostics, not only will their lives begin to have much more meaning, they will understand the very purpose of their existence. For believers, everything will instantly make sense as they see the barrier between religion and science melt before their eyes.

Finally, I say with no exaggeration or special pleading (and for reasons I cannot explain to you right now) that your participation in this campaign is absolutely essential for the success of The Principle. So please, just take a few minutes out of your day and send this PDF to all the people you know, and ask them to send it to all the people they know.
Above all, you must go to The Principle’s Facebook and website and make your “clicks.” We are counting each “click,” and our success depends on your “clicks.”
