1)Varosha was systematically looted,both in 1974 when the Turkish Army captured it and then on an organised basis by the Turkish Army in the summer of 1975.There are detailed U.N. reports about this,as well as Guardian newspaper articles from the time so it's pointless arguing about it because there is no excuse whatsover....The whole situation with Varosha is absurd and signifies the stupidity and downright meanness and lack of goodwill which has so far spoiled any attempts to get progress on the Cyprus issue as a whole:Other examples are many and include the failure to open the Ledra St. and Limnitis checkpoints which would make life so much easier for everyone on both sides of the line,when we can already cross at half a dozen other places without any problems!!Whichever side of the line you are on you know I am right about these things.....
2)The so-called 'Sheikh' of Lefke is a well-known figure who has even been visited by Prince Charles,but as a serious researcher,I am very wary of people who build up their reputations- and money- by claiming to have 'special powers' etc!Genuine mystics do not seek fame and fortune because they are beyond such needs,like Andy Papadopulos who died in Stavrovouni recently(see last Sundays Cyprus mail magazine article)
3)Ufo's-I have a very open mind because the universe is beyond our humble understanding and to assume we are the only living beings seems very short-sighted.........
I have seen so many so-called psychics and mediums exposed as charlatans,like the Anglo-Cypriot woman in Nicosia the other week and they do a great deal of harm to persons such as myself and others like me who are striving to establish validity for a wider concept of reality among the world in general.I have also met many persons with what seem to be genuine abilities though and who have given me and others information which proved to be accurate and which they could not have guessed or known previously so I would ask you to be skeptical but open to new ideas...
4)People who are fanatical about things like politics and religion are usually the least spiritual in reality.....
I think that's enough to ponder on for now....
P.S. Iceman,nice to hear from you again and the reports about Varoshas strange goings-on are not just made-up!
they were trying to tell me it was a plane but it definately WASNT, if you'd of seen it theres no way you would of thought it was a plane!!!
get it?
secondly i never accused you of being a religious nut either
