The Fortune-Teller

By Thomas Moore

Down in the valley come meet me to-night,
And I'll tell you your fortune truly
As ever 'twas told, by the new-moon's light,
To a young maiden, shining as newly.

But, for the world, let no one be nigh,
Lest haply the stars should deceive me,
Such secrets between you and me and the sky
Should never go farther, believe me.

If at that hour the heavens be not dim,
My science shall call up before you
A male apparition -- the image of him
Whose destiny 'tis to adore you.

And if to that phantom you'll be kind,
So fondly around you he'll hover,
You'll hardly, my dear, any difference find
'Twixt him and a true living lover.

Down at your feet, in the pale moonlight,
He'll kneel, with a warmth of devotion --
An ardour, of which such an innocent sprite
You'd scarcely believe had a notion.

What other thoughts and events may arise,
As in destiny's book I've not seen them,
Must only be left to the stars and your eyes
To settle, ere morning, between them. 

NOW. Was Jesus Circumcised? 

YES, Because he was a Jew. 

WHY? Because the Bible SAYS SO. God basically says, "Circumcise your 8-day-old babies and those of your slaves to make a covenant with me." 

Here's the source: Here's the Source.

Here's what "covenant" means in the Bible: 

cov·e·nant [kúvvənənt]
n (plural cov·e·nants)
1.  solemn agreement: a solemn agreement that is binding on all parties  

4.  bible mutual promises of God and Israelites: in the Bible, the promises that were made between God and the Israelites, who agreed to worship no other gods 
~Encarta ® World English Dictionary

GOD BRIBES HIS PEOPLE. 

God bribes his people 

with promises of land 

in exchange for 

full-time monotheistic worship

and the forfeiting of their foreskins.

Sir Thomas Moore has felt the death

That one day will come upon me,

And on that day with my last breath, 

I will recite a song of thee.

Suicide Magnets

It's weird how there are points on the earth where suicide becomes unusually frequent. I'd like to see some kind of over-head chart depicting this.

Aokigaharao, Japan

Its popularity for suicides is due in some part to the novel Kuroi Jukai (黒い樹海, lit. Black Sea of Trees^?), which ends with the lovers of the novel committing suicide in the forest. Since the 1950s, more than 500 people have lost their lives in the forest, mostly suicides,^[3] with approximately 30 counted yearly.^[4] In 2002, 78 bodies were found within the forest, replacing the previous record of 73 in 1998.^[5] The high rate of suicide has led officials to place signs in the forest, urging those who have gone there in order to commit suicide to seek help and not kill themselves. The annual search, consisting of a small army of police, volunteers and attendant journalists, began in 1970.^[6]

 

Is it impolite to compare the Japanese to lemmings?

 

 

 

 

 No, not like that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Japanese people are cute like lemmings.

 

 

 

 

The Luminous Veil, Toronto

Main article: Luminous Veil

Designed by architect Derek Revington and engineers at Halcrow Yolles, and completed in 2003 at the cost of C$5.5 million^[6], the Luminous Veil consists of over 9,000 steel rods, 12.7 cm apart and 5m high, stretched to cantilevered girders to function as a suicide barrier.^[7] At the same time as the construction of the Luminous Veil, the bridge also underwent a renovation with the water proofing and concrete deteriorations being replaced. While awaiting approval of the barrier and during construction, which was subject to numerous delays, 48 to 60 suicides took place at the bridge.^[6][7] It received the 1999 Canadian Architect Award of Excellence.<sup>[8]


Um, yeah, thanks Wikipedia.</sup>
