UPDATED: OHIO CONGRESSMAN TIM RYAN TEACHES NEW AGE MEDITATION TECHNIQUES OF "MINDFULNESS" TO CONGRESS AND SCHOOLCHILDREN

Tim Ryan, Democratic congressman from the rough and tumble Youngstown, Ohio area has had his book "A Mindful Nation" published by the foremost New Age publisher, Hay House, Inc., whose founder Louise Hay, is a new age teacher of "positive affirmations" as shown in:





His book promotes New Age meditation for schoolchildren and adults including his co-workers in Congress. As the videos show, this involves yoga. See article here: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-18563_162-57568552/ohio-congressmans-meditation-crusade/.

JEWISH VOICE INTERVIEWS JONATHAN CAHN

Decide for yourself if the nine omens given to ancient Israel are applicable to America. Are there universal principles that apply to America in particular as they did to Israel? Why not the rest of the world? If 2012 was to be the end of the world, why are we still here in 2013? Why aren't the New Testament warnings, and the warnings of Jesus Himself, of the signs of the end not more believable and applicable if Christians are living under the New Covenant, and Cahn is a Messianic Two Testament Yeshua believer?

    We are adding the applicable YouTube videos of Pagitt, Edelheit from Pagitt Radio on the "Progressive Radio" station (Love 105) in Minneapolis, for the world's edification and information to show the willingness of "Christian" and Jewish emergents to mesh their commonalities, if any, and if possible. The desire for these is "engagement" in an ecumenical sense to counter religious extremism in its varied forms, making "religion work through religious leaders who bring 'vision' to the text of Scripture", and "finding a new way of being religious", without giving up true Christianity and true Judaism as they interpret them, as heard here:
