The Apocryphal Gospels

December 30, 2009 By: romeblogger Category: Rome

The apocryphal gospels are gospels written in the early centuries of Christianity (including canonical, but these were not subsequently accepted by The Catholic Orthodox Church). St. Irenaeus of Lyons proposed it in the late Second century and they have remained like that since then. The Catholic Church recognizes only the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John

The content, so much of the apocryphal gospels, as that of the canonical ones, is based on what the apostles heard, saw and said while they were walking with Jesus preaching their doctrines and then in the resurrection of the Son of God.

A very important aspect of the Apocryphal Gospels is the Gnostic Gospels. These gospels caused major problems for the Catholic religion, since they say we should find God within us. The Gnostics believed that all humans have a divine spark within us. It is said that through the meditation, prayer and knowledge just a few of us can develop this divine spark and become enlightened or prophets.

This search of God within us ignores completely that the church is God’s house. It also ignores the priests as God’s messengers. To the Gnostics only those who reached the state of enlightenment were genuine prophets. And of course they did not believe in the forgiveness of the priests. Forgiveness must come from repentance through a confession of our sins to ourselves: only this way we are conscious that we sin.

Within the Gnostic Gospels we also count on the gospels of Jesus Christ’s infancy and of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary. Then we also have the Gospels of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, also banned by the Catholic Church. And finally, we have many other gospels difficult to classify as the gospels of St. Peter, St. Mark, and even St. Judas.

If you want to visit the city of Christianity and learn more about the Gospels, you can not miss a visit to Rome. Rent Rome Apartments and enjoy your search for the Divine Truth.

Being gay without being gay

December 15, 2009 By: romeblogger Category: Rome

People say that being gay is fashionable. But is it possible that ones sexual orientation may just be a fad? It seems that the sexual openness and tolerance is increasing in our society. In most developed countries being gay is no longer a major problem. Many people, especially the young ones, come out of the closet without complexes or subterfuge. But what about the people who practice homosexual sex and declare themselves as straight? On the one hand, bisexuality is a trend that has increasingly gained new adherents. The sexual desire and the fact of fulfilling ones own sexual fantasies means that gay sex practices have become more frequent among non homosexuals.

Orgies, threesomes, swinging: anything is possible! Straight people are tired of boring sexual practices. Today, many women report having practiced homosexual sex or feeling attracted to other women, without being lesbians. It is not the same with the men, who don’t want to recognize that they would practice these kinds of sexual games if they had the opportunity.

The swingers clubs are an ideal place for having sex with persons of your same sex without feeling the social pressures. Here anything is permitted; including watching how your partner enjoys having sex with another man or woman while you stimulate yourself alone or with another person, regardless if he or she is male or female.

We all can give and receive equal pleasure from both genders. Because, if you think about it, who will better understand the benefits of our body than a person of our own sex? Many people, after having practiced gay sex for the first time are so pleasantly surprised that they want to repeat the experience. This is not incompatible with a straight life or with a straight couple. Just open your mind a bit and be led by your carnal instincts. If your partner is as tolerant as you, he or she will explore new worlds.

What about the orgies or the threesomes? It’s an exchange of pleasure where everyone gives and receives. Forget your complexes and your prejudices! Unleash your sexual appetite in the Italian capital of Rome. Rent apartments in Rome and give free rein to your imagination. There is a world of possibilities open to you!
