At the center of everything 
Back to the creation community
Joy of existence and praise of God.

(Christian Däubner, 
Bibelauslegung zu Gen 1,28)

The COSMIC
development
of HUMAN BEING

The biggest question of all:
Why is there “Something” instead of “Nothing”?!
(English: "Why is there "Something"
rather than "Nothing"?)

(Robert Lawrence Kuhn,
Investmentbanker und promovierter Neurowissenschaftler)

The COSMIC

There are two ways to live your life:
Either as if nothing were a miracle,
or as if everything was a miracle.

(Albert Einstein)

Two things are infinite:
The universe and the human stupidity.
But with the universe
I'm not quite sure yet.

(Albert Einstein)

sustains life, be it so,
as if he had given the whole humanity

(Koran, Sure 5, Vers 32)

We are all

and you gave me something to eat?
I was a stranger and homeless,

BEING - 
the greatest adventure of NOTHING.

DEATH -

BEYOND “death”.

God′s conception of the world

Don't search OTHER,
but to surpass YOURSELF.

(Cicero)

God′s conception of the world

Who SAYS, 
that with MONEY EVERYTHING is possible,
just proves 
that he NEVER HAD any.

(Aristoteles Onassis, Schiffs-Millardär)

God′s conception of the world

When God saw, 
that the path is too LONG,
the mountain too STEEP 
and breathing became HARD,
he put his ARM 
about our mother and grandma
and said:
"COME HOME."

(Todesanzeige für Anna Hirschberg)

The COSMIC
development
of HUMAN BEING

The human body
consists of more atoms *[1028]
as there are stars
in the known universe there is *[1022]

*redaktionell von mir hinzugefügt]
(Werner Braun, 1951-2006, deutscher Aphoristiker)

The COSMIC
development
of HUMAN BEING

ABUNDANCE (is)
the actual definition of salvation history:
The mind of the merely calculating person will forever find it absurd,
that God is in incomprehensible self-waste
not just a universe,
but spent himself,
to lead the speck of human dust to salvation.

Only the lover
can understand the folly of a love,
for the waste law,
Abundance is the only thing that is sufficient.

(Von mir redaktionell geringfügig umgestellter Text aus:
Prof. Josef Ratzinger - späterer Papst Benedikt 16te,
Einführung ins Christentum, (c) 1977, S.217)

The COSMIC
development
of HUMAN BEING

My religion
consists in my humble admiration
an unlimited spiritual power,
which shows itself in even the smallest things,
that we with our frail
and weak minds can grasp.

The deep, emotional conviction
of the presence of a spiritual intelligence,
which opens in the incomprehensible universe,
forms my idea of ​​God.

(Albert Einstein)

The COSMIC
development
of HUMAN BEING

The proud man forgets
that he and the earth
are just a tiny particle in the cosmos.

(Otto Baumgartner-Amstad)

Life=Love

The only important thing in life
are the traces of love
that we leave behind
when we go away.

(Albert Schweitzer)

Life=Love

Love has nothing to do with getting, but rather with what you want to GIVE: namely EVERYTHING.

(Katherine Hepburn, amerikanische Schauspielerin)

The TEACHING profession

He who taught his students the ABC,
has accomplished a greater deed
than the general who fought a battle.

(Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, 1646 - 1716)

Humans and ANIMALS

People have responsibility,
not power.

(Indianische Weisheit)

Humans and ANIMALS

All creatures on earth
feel like we do,
all creatures strive for happiness
like us.
All creatures on earth love,
suffer and die
like us,
therefore they are, equal to us, works of the Almighty Creator
- our brothers.

(Franz von Assisi)

Humans and ANIMALS

I believe that little dogs also go to heaven and that every creature has an immortal soul.

(Martin Luther)

Humans and ANIMALS

The unnecessary slaughter, killing, beating and cruel treatment of animals is a great sin.

God will also have compassion on him.

relative to the size of the world population,
murders became less common,
rapes as well
and robberies too.

Burglaries (currently a major cause for concern in Germany) have declined particularly sharply on a global scale. The same applies to car thefts.

Dear Skinhead !
I writeto you in very simple words.
So that You UNDERSTAND:

I want to tell You something:
if You hit a poor dog,
You don?t show how STRONG You are,
You only show Your feebleness
and STUPIDITY.
Because his broken had
does not salve Your PROBLEMS.

If You want to be strong,
You must Yourself namely
You must fight against your own feebleness.
You must realize.
In Your shaven cranium
there is brain indeed.
Then use your brain
- not the RIOTSTICK.

Your brain needs a DIED
as does Your BELLY.
Then try it once
by TALKING orREADING.
And ask Yourself,
WHY Your life exists
of nothing but SHIT.

Plainly - READING are SEVERITY:
MEDITATION is evan more SEVERITY.
That is harder work than screaming
as "shit - Negroes"
or "messy - Jew."
screaming is quite simple.
offending and hating
practically ANYBODY is able to do.

It does not matter to me
if You walk around with Your SHAVEN head
and your BOOTS.
on my account you can
tape ARTICHOKES on the cranium tape
and tattoos on your arse.

But ONE things however NOT matters.
I want you to respect yourself.
Your DIGNITY and Your BRAIN.
So you also maybe learn
how to RESPECT OTHER people.

If You screame "messy Jew,"
You must first now,
what it is to be a Jew.
If You have it UNDERSTAND,
WHAT A Jew is,
then You can try,
You to ask,
how BEAUTIFUL it is,
if they put Your MOTHER, Your FATHER,
Your SISTER and youself
into the oven.

I considerabl worry about You.
And natural also about the HEADS,
You continual hit on.

I do just worry,
because the POWER,
if they have STUPED and MEAN people
on front of themselfs
always TWO THINGS.

They put You into the JUG,
and the jug is a
mightily clap on Your head.
or they USE You
as SLAVES.
Send You
SPANKING and SUFFERING and STANDING

You want you FREEDOM.
They let your head shoven,
however, understand finaly
that BRAIN is inside it.
INSIDE ther is power and power.
