Wik­iLeaks has pro­vided us all with a great deal of news of late. The video below pro­vide the back­ground story to the orga­ni­za­tion and while dis­turb­ing at times, is quite sim­ply a must watch. Julian Assange has been branded a trai­tor by world lead­ers who say the release of this infor­ma­tion endan­gers many lives. While that is true, is it […]

All who try to find in the New Tes­ta­ment the story of what hap­pened in Jesus’ life between the ages of 12 and 30 are inevitably sorely dis­ap­pointed.  Those years are not cov­ered.  Two promi­nent Catholic schol­ars at George­town Uni­ver­sity con­firm this in JESUS IN INDIA.

Werner Her­zog is one of my favorite direc­tors (Wheel of Time, Encoun­ters at the End of the World). His films have a way of draw­ing you into another real­ity through stun­ning visu­als and long shots that allow your eyes to mar­i­nate in the beauty of what­ever sub­ject he is shoot­ing. Cave of For­got­ten Dreams is his lat­est cre­ation released in Sep­tem­ber of 2010 — and it’s in 3D.

The fea­ture film “2012: Time for Change” presents an opti­mistic alter­na­tive to apoc­a­lyp­ti­cal doom and gloom. Directed by Emmy Award nom­i­nee Joao Amorim, the film fol­lows jour­nal­ist Daniel Pinch­beck, author of the best­selling 2012: The Return of Quet­zal­coatl, on a quest for a new par­a­digm that inte­grates the archaic wis­dom of tribal cul­tures with the sci­en­tific method. As con­scious agents […]
