5. The new birth of reconciliation

reconciliation finds its launch initiative prevenient This love of the merciful love of God does not give up before the refusal of man, but reveals his boundless deep into the saving will of God . He came to meet us in the person of Jesus and has made possible what was not only to our strengths: our reconciliation with God ...

The foreseeing love of God comes before our conversion in chronological order and makes it possible.
When our way of thinking about converting this initiative would exclude God's prevenient, it runs the risk of sounding a conquest of man, something that falls within its capabilities, which is within the sound of his freedom as he has turned away from God, so he can return to him. God would be limited to forgive the one who repent, turn to him.
imagining things this way, we fall back again in a legalistic conception of sin, reduced to little more than a debt, that God can freely forgive. In this case the role of God becomes quite secondary: I take the initiative to repent, then he takes notice and forgive me. Not so: God has the absolute initiative and all the way before my return to him. Even aware of the seriousness of my sin is only in the light of God's word that enlightens me and calls me to repentance. It is his merciful love he can win the suggestion of sin in me and got me back to myself and say will return to my Father (Luke 15:18).
All this is accomplished in Christ who is our reconciliation and our peace.
He is the Good Shepherd who seeks the lost sheep. The Church gives message of love prevenient to encourage and support the repentant sinner on the way back to God

GateCon The first edition of Italy - the Italian event dedicated to Stargate

I receive from friends and gladly LevanteCon public.

"A million years ago in the sky is Ra, the Sun God Sealed and buried for ever, the gateway to the stars." This is written on the scroll found in 1928 in Egypt, adjacent to a big ring with no known function. A sentence and a discovery that opens the door, or rather a portal to a series of situations that will allow some humans to visit hundreds of unknown worlds and come into contact with many alien races. All thanks to the mysterious ring that is merely a portal to allow communication between different parts of the known universe.

With its numerous film and television productions, Stargate has managed to capture in a short time 'attention and hearts of many fans around the world, becoming a real reference point for modern science fiction. Popularity and success that fans are celebrating in a number of events coming together to share a common passion.

Even in Italy the passion per questa serie è tanta. Per venire incontro alla grande mole di fan italiani, e non solo, lo “Stargate Italian Fanclub” ( www.stargateitalia.it ), in collaborazione con la “Associazione Culturale Giulio Verne”, organizza la convention nazionale dedicata a Stargate, la “GateCon Italia”.

La “GateCon – la Manifestazione italiana dedicata a Stargate” è dunque il secondo grande evento fantascientifico, dopo la “Star Trek Convention”, della LevanteCon (Bari 3 aprile 2011). In questo grande contenitore sono approntate mostre, incontri con i fan, tavole rotonde, talk-show, giochi e tutta una serie di attività correlate.
È inoltre data particolare attenzione alla scenografia, sempre curata in ogni minimo dettaglio, per offrire all’appassionato una visione e una atmosfera più vicina a quella che si respira nei vari film e telefilm. Un  esempio per tutti è l’esclusivo Stargate, di oltre due metri di diametro , che fa bella mostra nella convention.
La GateCon Italia vuole quindi essere un portale, uno Stargate appunto, aperto a tutti i fan della serie, i “gaters”, affinché possano avere un punto d’incontro ricco di eventi ed attrattive legate a questa serie che in Italia conta diverse centinaia of fans. The GateCon Italy is organized annually by the "Stargate Italian Fanclub" in the sunny and warm city of Bari in the "LevanteCon - the Italian convention of Science Fiction and Comics."

4. Sin is evil in God

Psalm 50

We must not forget that sin is the evil of God because it is the wrong man. God is touched by evil man, because he wants the good of man.
When we speak of God's law, we must not think of a series of arbitrary commands with which he states his rule, but rather a series of signals about the way our human fulfillment. The commandments of God does not express so much his domain because its officials. Inside every commandment of God is writing this commandment: Be yourself. Carries out the possibilities of life that I gave you. I do not want much to you that your fullness of life and happiness. ...

This fullness of life and happiness is only realized in the love of God and neighbor. Now. God is wounded by human sin, because sin hurts the man he loves. He is wounded in his love, not in his honor.
But sin affects God not only disappoints because its love. God wants to weave a personal relationship with the man of love and life for man is everything: true fullness of life and joy. But sin is a rejection of this life-giving. The man, loved by God, free of charge, refuses to filial love the Father who so loved for him to give his only Son (Jn 3:16).
This is the most profound and mysterious reality of sin, which can only be understood in the light of faith. This refusal is the soul of sin in opposition to the body of sin which is the verifiable destruction of humanity that it produces. Sin is a disease that arises from human freedom and express themselves in a no This free love of God no (mortal sin) separates man from God that is the source of life and happiness. Esso è di sua natura qualcosa di definitivo e irreparabile. Soltanto Dio può riallacciare le relazioni di vita e colmare l’abisso che il peccato ha scavato tra l’uomo e lui. E quando avviene la riconciliazione non si tratta di un generico aggiustamento di rapporti: è un atto di amore ancora più grande, generoso e gratuito di quello con cui Dio ci ha creato. La riconciliazione è una nuova nascita che fa di noi delle creature nuove.

The first real project of NASA spacecraft.

The lack of funds or goals did not stop some of NASA's dream big. Two engineers Johnson Spaceflight Center, Mark Holderman and Edward Henderson, have designed a new type of spacecraft, called the Nautilus X MMSEV.

Nautilus X MMSEV NASA is an acronym which stands for Universal Non-Atmospheric Transport Intended for lengthy United States X-ploration Multi-Mission Space Exploration Vehicle.

The complete structure is here.

The Nautilus X would be able to hold a crew of six members for missions of up to two years in duration. Would be built in orbit low earth orbit. The vehicle would consist of a number of habitable modules, solar panels, propulsion modules variabili con il tipo di missione, bracci di intervento esterno, punti di attracco per navicelle spaziali di tipo Orion o commerciali del tipo SpaceX Dragon , moduli per la discesa a destinazione e soprattutto una centrifuga per la simulazione di gravità parziale, realizzata con una struttura gonfiabile a forma di ciambella che potrebbe essere inizialmente testata nella Stazione Spaziale Internazionale. Vi sarebbero inoltre moduli logistici, un sistema di protezione dalle radiazioni, una serra idroponica, ganci d’attracco per i moduli di atterraggio e veicoli per attività extraveicolare ( EVA pods ).

La missione inaugurale del Nautilus X si svolgerebbe al Punto L1 di Lagrange, dove gravità terrestre e lunare si elidono. Il Nautilus X potrebbe poi diventare una navetta di spola verso la luna, e un veicolo di minori dimensioni di tipo Orion o Dragon trasporterebbe l’equipaggio dalla Terra al Nautilus X. Successivamente il veicolo verrebbe utilizzato per effettuare un allunaggio con i moduli collegati, nell’ambito di missioni di esplorazione lunare o di un programma di permanenza. In seguito un modulo di propulsione più avanzato potrà essere collegato al Nautilus X, allo scopo di raggiungere Marte o gli Asteroidi. Il costo stimato da Holderman e Henderson si aggira intorno ai 3,7 miliardi di USD in poco più di cinque anni. Un prezzo proibitivo, ma largamente inferiore alle ordinarie spese militari degli USA.

3. Sin is an evil man

Prima di essere una disubbidienza e un’offesa a Dio, il peccato è il male dell’uomo, è un fallimento, una distruzione di ciò che rende uomo l’uomo. Il peccato è una realtà misteriosa che incide tragicamente sull’uomo. La terribilità del peccato è difficile da comprendere: è visibile del tutto solo alla luce della fede e della parola di Dio. Ma qualcosa della sua terribilità appare già anche a uno sguardo umano, se si considerano gli effetti devastanti che esso produce nel mondo dell’uomo. Basta pensare a tutte le guerre e gli odi che hanno insanguinato il mondo, a tutte le schiavitù del vizio, alla stupidità e alla irrazionalità personale e collettiva che hanno causato tante sofferenze note e ignote. La storia dell’uomo è un mattatoio!
Tutte queste forme di fallimento, di tragedia, di sofferenza, nascono in qualche modo dal peccato e sono legate al peccato. È quindi possibile scoprire un collegamento reale tra l’egoismo, la viltà, l’inerzia e la cupidigia dell’uomo e questi mali individuali e collettivi che sono la manifestazione inequivocabile del peccato. ...

Primo compito del cristiano è acquisire per sé il senso della responsabilità, scoprendo il legame che unisce le sue scelte libere di uomo ai mali del mondo. E questo perché il peccato prende corpo nella realtà della mia vita e nella realtà del mondo.
Esso prende corpo nella psicologia dell’uomo, diventa l’insieme delle sue abitudini cattive, delle sue tendenze peccaminose, dei suoi desideri distruttivi, che diventano sempre più forti in seguito al peccato.
Ma prende corpo anche nelle strutture della società rendendole ingiuste e oppressive; prende corpo nei mezzi di comunicazione facendone strumento della menzogna e del disordine morale; prende corpo nei comportamenti negativi dei genitori, educatori... che con gli insegnamenti sbagliati e i cattivi esempi introducono elementi di deformazione e di disordine morale nell’animo dei figli e degli alunni, depositando in essi un seme di male che continuerà a germogliare per tutta la vita e forse sarà trasmesso ad altri ancora.
Il male prodotto dal peccato ci sfugge di mano e causa una spirale di disordine, di distruzioni e di sofferenze, che si allarga molto al di là di quanto pensavamo e volevamo. Se fossimo più abituati a riflettere sulle conseguenze of good and evil that our choices will produce in ourselves and in others, we would be much more responsible. If, for example, the bureaucrat, the politician, the doctor ... could see the suffering they cause to so many people with their absenteeism, their corruption, their individual and group selfishness, feel so much more serious than the weight of these attitudes that may not feel at all. What we lack is therefore the awareness of responsibility, which would allow us to see, first, the negativity of human sin, his burden of suffering and destruction.

2. Inadequate conceptions of sin

They say they no longer had the sense of sin, which is partly true. There's no sense of sin to the extent that there is no sense of God But even more upstream, there is no sense of shame because there is not enough sense of responsibility.
Our culture tends to hide the individual bonds of solidarity that bind their choices good and bad to the fate of himself and others. Political ideologies tend to persuade individuals and groups that the fault is always of others. It promises more and more and you do not have the courage to appeal to individual responsibility towards the general good. In a culture of non-responsibility, the predominantly legalistic conception of sin, handed down from catechesis than once, it loses all meaning and ends up falling. In the legalistic conception of sin is seen essentially as disobedience to God's law, so as a refusal to submit to his rule. In a world like ours where it enhances the freedom, obedience is no longer considered a virtue and thus disobey is not considered a bad thing, but a form of emancipation that makes man free, and gives him back his dignity. ...

the legalistic conception of sin, the violation of divine command offends our God and creates a debt against him: the debt of those who offend another and needs repair, or who has committed a crime and must be punished. Justice requires that the man should pay all his debt and expiate his guilt. But Christ has already paid for everyone. Just repent and acknowledge their debt because they shall be forgiven.
Alongside this legalistic conception of sin there is another - also inadequate - we call fatalistic. Sin would reduce the lag that exists and will always exist between the needs of God's holiness and insuperable limits of man, that this is in an incurable situation in respect of God's plan
Since this situation is insurmountable it is for God the opportunity to disclose all his mercy. According to this concept of sin, God does not take into account the sins of man, but simply remove his gaze from the hopeless misery of man. Man should only rely blindly on this without worrying too much mercy for his sins, because God will save him, although he remains a sinner.
This conception of sin is not the true Christian vision of the reality of sin. If sin is something so insignificant, you could not understand why Christ died on the cross to save us from sin.
Sin is disobedience to God, about God and God strikes But the man to understand the terrible seriousness of sin must begin to consider the reality of his human side, realizing that sin is an evil man.
