«ច្បាប់គឺអញ អញគឺច្បាប់!» (by Sam Vichea)


Last words on Youth and Political Change



Image: voa
“We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.”

-Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881) British politician and author.        

“The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.”
-Friedrich Nietzsche



“The duty of youth is to challenge corruption.”

-Kurt Cobain

“It is not possible for civilization to flow backwards while there is youth in the world. Youth may be headstrong, but it will advance it allotted length.”

-Helen Keller

Tears and not public admission of accountability come of their own accord to one who blames the victims for having engineered their own tragedies on that fateful evening at Koh Pich School of Vice
“In politics stupidity is not a handicap.”

-Napoleon Bonaparte

“Those who are too smart to engage in politics are punished by being governed by those who are dumber.”          

-Plato

Khmer Krom detained in Vietnam: SRP leader

24 May 2013
By Vong Sokheng
The Phnom Penh Post

The executive director of the Khmer Kampuchea Krom Association has asked Foreign Affairs Minister Hor Namhong to intervene on behalf of two Khmer Krom monks he says are missing after they and three others were arrested by Vietnamese authorities last Thursday.

In a letter to Namhong, Sam Rainsy Party Senator Thach Setha says Vietnamese authorities accused the two monks and three laymen of spying on Vietnam for the Khmer Kampuchea Krom Association and forced the monks to defrock.

One of the monks and the laymen were released the same day, after the monk, Ly Chenda, was badly beaten, says Setha. Setha believes the other monk is still being detained.

Vietnamese embassy spokesman Le Minh Ngoc and Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman Koy Kuong could not be reached.

Reading MARK -- Jesus Calls

For he had healed many, so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him. Whenever the impure spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.”

Background Notes

Recently, I discovered the sermons of my college pastor online. While at Georgetown University (1991-95), I, along with 10-20 other Georgetown friends, attended Fourth Presbyterian Church, a 10-15 minute drive from campus through the manicured estates of Northwest Washington, DC to the leafy suburban neighborhood of Bethesda in Maryland. 

We drank in the deep wisdom of our college director, Chuck Jacob (now a senior pastor at Knox Presbyterian in Ann Arbor, MI) and of Dr. Rob Norris on Sunday mornings (and at times, classes he taught during the week days). 

When I attended, the US Vice-President Dan Quayle and his family (and security detail), my Georgetown professor former UN Ambassador Jeanne Kirkpatrick, and many other well-known names from politics, academia and media, also attended. Dr. Norris' predecessor was then-chaplain of the US Senate, Dr. Richard Halverson.
 
All to say, if all of these accomplished people came Sunday after Sunday and benefited from Dr. Norris' sermons, maybe we too can find intellectual as well as spiritual nourishment from these talks? 

It does not take long before one is taken in by the profundity and the humor -- not to mention, the accent! -- of Dr. Norris's exposition.

(Complete Gospel of Mark)


The fame of Jesus spread not only throughout Galilee, but to the pagans, to the Gentiles [non-Jew]… All manner of people came to Jesus – those who were sick, those who wanted to see him executed – within all those conflicting needs – Jesus continues His mission, set by the Father… Jesus withdrew to rest to the wilderness… Christ is leading His people out of this dark age to the Promise Land… The Savior of the nations, not only the hope of Israel, but people will come from the East, from the West. -- Sermon
