AFRICAN SNAILs

The African grant snails Archachatina species and Achatina species belong to the class Gastropoda; the largest class of Mollusks. The snail consists of two parts: the shell and soft part. The soft part consists of the head, foot and visceral mass but only the head and foot are edible.

The rearing of snail called Heliculture is derived from the English species of snail called Helix. The purposes of  Heliculture are;
   i) To demonstrate that snail rearing is possible in an urban area.
  ii) That it could provide a lucrative job for the people.
  iii) To highlight the nutritional, medicinal and other uses of snail.
 iv)Finally to encourage individuals or retirees wishing to have a goal at rearing snails either as a hobby or on commercial basis.

ABORTION, THE GREATEST WAR OF ALL TIME.

Our Society is sick, my dear Bretheren in the Lord, We are accommodating vices that were hitherto unknown to our ancestors. As we all know, ABORTION IS KILLING OF INNOCENT HUMAN LIFE. The unborn babies are human and innocent. There is more Scientific doubt that human life begins from conception. Abortion an abomination not only in the Christian Faith but also in Islam and our traditional religion. It is contrary to all that is best in our Culture which respect the eminent sacredness of human life. We shouldn't allow anybody to deceive us that abortion is a quick and easy way to get rid of any unwanted pregnancy, because these guide and easy solutions which apparently and spectarcularly beneficialy in the short term may in the long run be a proverbial trogans horse.
The foundamental reason why abortion is such a crime is because it is blasphemy in action. It refuse to recognised the sanctity of human life which is derived from God. In the new Catholic Catechism, "Human life is sacred because from its begining it involves the creative action of God who is its sole end".
We all know that whatever belongs to God is Sacred, such is human as the property of the creator. As the new Catholic Catechism makes it clear by saying that "No one can under any circumstances claim for himself the right direction to destroy an innocent human life.

WHEN WILL IT BE?

Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was to come, Jesus gave them this answer,' The coming of the kingdom of God does not admit of observation and there will be no one to say, "Look here! Look there!" For, you must know, the kingdom of God is among you.'
He said to the disciples, 'A time will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man and will not see it. They will say to you, "Look there!" or, "Look here!" Make no move; do not set off in pursuit; for as the lightning flashing from one part of heaven lights up other, so will be Son of Man when his day comes. But first he must suffer grievously and be rejected by this generation.'
Luke 17:20-25

ON JUDGEMENT DAY

Jesus said to his disciples: 'When the Son of Man comes in his glory, escorted by all the angels, then he will take his seat on his throne of glory. All the nations will be assembled before him and he will separate men one from another as the shepherd separates sheep from goats. He will place the sheep on his right hand and the goats on his left. Then the King will say to those on his right hand, "Come, you whom my Father has blessed, take for your heritage the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me drink; I was a stranger and you made me welcome; naked and you clothed me, sick and you visited me, in prison and you came to see me." Then the virtuous will say to him in reply, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you; or thirsty and give you drink?  When did we see you a stranger and make you welcome; naked and clothed you; sick or in prison and go to see you?
And the King will answer, "I tell you solemnly, in so far as you did this to one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it to me."
Next he will say to those on his left hand, "Go away from me, with your curse upon you, to the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you never gave me food; I was thirsty and you never gave me anything to drink; I was a stranger and you never made me welcome, naked and you never clothed me, sick and in prison and you never visited me." Then it will be their turn to ask, "Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty, a stranger or naked, sick or in prison, and did not come to your help?"
Then he will answer, "I tell you solemnly, in so far as you neglected to do this to one of the least of these, you neglected to do it to me."
And they will go away to eternal punishment, and the virtuous to eternal life.'
Mathew 25:31-46

OUR WORLD

The importance of Environmental Studies cannot be disputed. The need for sustainable development is a key to the future of the mankind. The degradation of our environment is linked to continuing problems of pollution, loss of forests, solid waste disposal, issues related to economic productivity, and national as well as ecological security. The increasing levels of global warming, the depletion of the ozone layer and a serious loss of biodiversity have also made everyone aware of the growing environmental concerns. The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, and the World Summit on Sustainable Development at Zoharbex in 2002, have drawn the attention of the people around the globe to the changing condition of our environment. It is clear that no citizen of the earth can afford to be ignorant of environmental issues. Environmental management has become a part of the health care sector. Managing environmental hazards and preventing possible disasters has become an urgent need.
Human beings have been interested in ecology since the beginning of civilization. Even our ancient scriptures have included practices and values related to environment conservation. It is now even more critical than ever before for mankind as a whole to have a clear understanding of environmental concerns and to follow sustainable development practices.
India is rich in biodiversity, which provides various resources for people; it is also the basis for biotechnological development. Thus far, only about 1.8 million living organisms have been described and named globally; still many more remain to be identified and described.  

THE TEN VIRGINS

The Bible story concerning TEN VIRGINS refers to all mankind. Jesus Christ make us know that one day, the world will end, Heaven and Earth with all that is will finish. Mankind will give account.
