Ghosts and life after death

Image
By Bishop Arthur Serratelli  Bishop Arthur Joseph Serratelli One of the most famous figures of all English literature is the ghost of Hamlet’s father. Three times he appears in Shakespeare’s play  The Tragedy of Hamlet ,  Prince of Denmark . He demands that his son settle accounts with his uncle who murdered the dead king. In Shakespeare’s  Macbeth ,  Julius Caesar  and  Richard III , ghosts also appear. From the 3rd century B.C.  Epic of Gilgamesh  through Homer, Virgil, Ovid, Shakespeare and Dickens, ghosts populated the pages of literature. They have appeared in films and even starred in their own TV show,  Ghost Hunters . Are ghosts merely fictional? Do they really exist?  First Lady Grace Coolidge said that she saw Abraham Lincoln’s ghost looking out the window of the Oval Office.

*"Palm Sunday" Is Not A Historical Event*

Image
_ Sir Divine Agyenim-Boateng Bassanio ._ "Palm Sunday" Is Not A Historical Event" The feast of Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus triumphant entry into Jerusalem the week before his passion and crucifixion. [Thus a week prior to the holy or Passion Week]. Some 450-500 years prior to Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem, the prophet Zachariah had prophesied the feast we celebrate today as Palm Sunday. He is noted to have said Rejoice greatly, Daughter of Zion, shout daughter of Jerusalem, see your king comes to you, Righteous and Victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey on a colt, the foal of a donkey.[Cf. Zachariah 9:9] For centuries, Christians have commemorated this feast day by waving branches of the palm tree as well as with liturgical procession and celebrations. To the ordinary Christian this gesture is a usual routine that occurs annually on every Palm Sunday, where we either bring or are given a palm frond while we sing and wave in a procession but it must be n...

THE GHANAIAN MEDIA; ANOTHER FORM OF TERRORISM?

Image
Until now, the media was a sword of democracy, a powerful tool that critically analyzed issues of national interest to help the masses make informed decisions. And, on the informational and educational front, the media was unbeatable!. But in recent days, the narrative has drastically changed, the 'ethics-less' and irresponsible journalism within the media circus is just unthinkable!. The media has proven irresponsible beyond measure. Since when did journalism become paid news, twisting of facts, sensational reporting, spewing false news and ultimately giving political dogs space to rant and bark?. It may seem rhetoric, but the fact sheets on this issue are clear on that. We have journeyed too far as a Nation to watch our fourth estate of the realm display these unimaginable defects. Until authorities take the necessary Democratic steps to sanitize the Ghanaian media, this age's Ghanaian media will just provide solutions to zero problems, place a program...
