- A review of the types of sin, occasions of sin, and how to avoid sin through following the Ten Commandments.
- A discussion of the parable of the Prodigal Son focusing on representing the father, sons, and lesson of God offering forgiveness.
- An overview of the Sacraments of Healing including Penance/Confession which provides forgiveness, grace and strength, and Anointing of the Sick for the sick/dying.
Reflection
While some feel nervous about confession, confessing sins directly to God at home is not an option according to Catholic teaching. Confession to a priest is a sacrament instituted by Christ to obtain forgiveness for sins committed after baptism, and regular confession helps the penitent to examine their conscience and avoid sin in the future through the guidance of a priest and God's grace.
Hope
Saint Clare was an Italian noblewoman who was the first female follower of Saint Francis of Assisi. She founded the Poor Clare order of nuns and gave away her wealth to live in poverty and own nothing, trusting God to provide for her needs. When an attacking army approached her sick monastery, Saint Clare carried the Blessed Sacrament to the walls and prayed to Jesus for protection, causing the army to flee.
Faith
Padre Pio was a Capuchin priest known for his great faith in God. He received the stigmata and had gifts like prophecy, conversion, and miraculous cures through prayer. His works helped convert many people and build a hospital. However, he suffered greatly from the stigmata wounds and spiritual attacks by the devil. Despite this, he persevered in his love and faith in God as a model of faith.
Charity
1) After converting to Christianity at age 25, St. Francis of Assisi heard Jesus tell him to "rebuild my church, for it is falling to ruin" while praying in the ruined church of San Damiano.
2) Thinking this meant the physical church, St. Francis began repairing it by taking fabric from his father's shop to sell, angering his father.
3) When brought before the bishop, St. Francis stripped off his clothes and renounced his father, dedicating himself to serving God and the Catholic Church for the rest of his life through loving service.
Cardinal virtues
The document describes four cardinal virtues: prudence involves making right choices to follow Jesus, justice respects others' rights and avoids selfishness, temperance controls physical and emotional needs, and fortitude provides courage and inner peace to face danger and difficulties while fulfilling duties, as seen in Christian martyrs.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
