3. YOU DONT GET ANY BENEFITS BY CREATING A KIN (SIGH)
Stop being such a troll. If like-minded people want to gather together and fellowship in a community-based game, let them.
It's a pity that you have been misled, Maldox.

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
A few wise words from Director James Cameron:
"Part of the titanic parable is of arrogance.
This big machine, this human system that is pushing forward with so much momentum that we couldn't turn and couldn't stop in time to avert a disaster. Within that human system onboard that ship, if you want to make it a micro-cosmos for the world, you have different classes...1st class, 2nd class, 3rd class, in our world right now, you've got developed nations and undeveloped nations, you've got the starving millions who will be most affected by the next ice berg that we hit, which is climate change.
We can see this ice berg ahead right now, but we can't turn because of the momentum of the system, political momentum, business momentum, there are too many people making money out of the the system, the way the system works right now, and those people have their hands on the labors of power and are not ready to let them go. Until they do, we are not be able to turn and miss that iceberg.
We're gonna hit it. When we hit it, the rich are still able to get their access to food,to arable land, to water and so on, it's gonna be the poor, the steerage that's gonna be impacted. It's the same as titanic.
I think that's why this story will always facinate people because it's a perfect little encapsulation of the world, in all social spectra. But until our lives are really put at risk, the moment of truth, we don't know what we will do.
And that's my final word..." ~James Cameron (Director of Titanic)

The sugar paper:
This is perhaps the easiest form of decoration (although it may be a bit pricier) as all one needs to do is to ask one's local pastry shop to print out your image using edible ink onto edible paper. Then upon completing the baking process, just stick this to the top.

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
On 15th April 1912, the Song "Nearer My God To Thee" was the final song played by the 8-member band as the Titanic sank.
All 8 musicians continued playing to keep the passengers calm for as long as they could, despite it became very obvious that the ship would eventually sink.
All members perished. All were recognized for their heroism.
Courage is not the absence of fear, it is in spite of it...
The 8 brave heroic musicians are:
Mr. Wallace Hartley Henry 33 Dewsbury, Yorkshire, England Violinist, BandLeader
Mr. W. Theodore Brailey Ronald 24 London, England Pianist
Mr. Roger Bricoux Marie 20 Cosne-sur-Loire, France Cellist
Mr. John Frederick Clarke Preston 30 Liverpool, Lancashire, England Bassist
Mr. John Hume Law "Jock" 21 Dumfries, Scotland Violinist
Mr. Georges Krins Alexandre 23 London, England Violinist
Mr. Percy Taylor Cornelius 32 London, England Cellist
Mr. John Woodward Wesley 32 Oxford, England Cellist
As the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic Event draws to a close,
we have published a special edition kin newsletter to commemorate this:
Peace and Love,
The Legion of Hope and Light Http://TheLegionOfHopeAndLight.guildlaunch.com
"Light will flood your hearts and you will understand the Hope that is given" ~Ephesians1:18
Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
Some clarification for future reference: While it is true that the Community Guidelines prohibit religious topics in the forum, faith-based kinships are allowed in the game. Consequently, such kinships are also entitled to use the forums to advertise and recruit new members. This is not a violation of rules so long as it does not exceed simple recruitment and the discussion of religious issues does not spill over into other, unrelated threads. So far, this thread has done neither and I would therefore kindly ask everyone who is not interested in participating in this kinship to simply ignore its recruitment call. Conversely, I would ask any willing participants in this thread to please refrain from engaging in controversial discussions that may arise. That's what the report button is for.

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
Mother's Day is coming, so we published a Special Mother's Day Edition Kin Newsletter:
Celine Dion's Song: Miracle (Tribute to Mothers and their children)
Lyrics:
"You're my life's one miracle
everything I've done that's good
and you break my heart with tenderness
and I confess it's true
I never knew a love like this 'til you
you're the reason I was born
now I finally know for sure
and I'm overwhelmed with happiness
so blessed to hold you close
the one that I love most
though the future has so much for you in store
who could ever love you more?
the nearest thing to heaven
you're my angel from above
only God creates such perfect love
when you smile at me, I cry
and to save your life I'd die
with a romance that is pure in heart
you are my dearest part
whatever it requires
I live for your desires
forget my own, your needs will come before
who could ever love you more?
there is nothing you could ever do
to make me stop loving you
and every breath I take
is always for your sake
you sleep inside my dreams and know for sure
who could ever love you more?"
Another Mother's Day Tribute Song: Ma Ma I Love You (By The Spice Girls)
Lyrics from the song:
"She used to be my only enemy and never let me be free
Catching me in places that I knew I shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the line
I didn't mean to be so bad
I never thought you would
Become the friend I never had
Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood (Mama)
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
You're my friend
I didn't want to hear it then but
I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you said and did was right for me
I had a lot of time to think about
About the way I used to be [harmony]
Never had a sense of my responsibility
Back then I didn't know why
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
All that you did was love
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
You're my friend, you're my friend
But now I'm sure I know why (I know why)
Why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your eyes
(See through your eyes)
All I can give you is love
(All I can give you is love)
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
Oh (you're my friend)
Ma Mama, oh (you're my friend)
Oh Ma Mama, oh
Oh Ma Mama, oh
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
Mama I love you, Mama I care
Mama I love you, Mama my friend
Me loving you, you loving me
A love that's true and guaranteed
Me loving you, me loving you
You loving me, you loving me
A love that's true, a love that's true
And guaranteed, so true
Me loving you, you loving me
A love that's true and guaranteed
Me loving you, me loving you
You loving me, you loving me
A love that's true, a love that's true
And guaranteed, so true"
On a side note, Ma Ma We LOVE You!

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
Our 19th Kin newsletter: It is about forgiveness and the power of love
John F Kennedy's Inspiring speech about landing on the Moon:
Forgiveness warms the heart and cools the pain...
Forgive all who have offended you, not for them, but for yourself...
Without forgiveness, life is governed by an endless cycle of resentment and retaliation...
We achieve inner health only through forgiveness - the forgiveness not only of others but also of ourselves...
"Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much." ~Oscar Wilde
"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." ~Mahatma Gandhi

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
On a side note, the reason we agree with what the great Mahatma Gandhi said about forgiveness is because it takes a lot of courage and strength to forgive someone, to say the words "I forgive you".
Therefore, the weak cannot forgive, only the strong can forgive.
"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." ~Mahatma Gandhi
Of all the human traits such as humility, hardworkingness, honor, and so on, the one we feel is ranked at number one is forgiveness. This is because we humans are not perfect, we make mistakes, so forgiveness is extremely important, especially in friendships and relationships.

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
We also feature articles from the Daily Bread too...
Kin Daily Bread (2nd June 2012) (Courtesy of www.odb.org): Kindness
"Kindness is a loving guide
That shows us how to live
A treasure which, the more we spend
The more we have to give."
If you are tempted to lose patience with another, stop and think how patient God has been with you.
How easily do we pass judgment on someone, assuming that we know all the facts about a situation? God’s Word sends us in a more charitable direction, instructing us to treat each other with kindness, humility, and patience (Col. 3:12).
"God loves you and has chosen you as his own special people. So be gentle, kind, humble, meek, and patient. " ~Colossians3:12
How much more loving we are when we bear with and forgive each other.
Let’s "treat others as we would like to be treated" (Luke 6:31), remembering that we don’t always know the burden they may be carrying.

Happy Father's Day!
5 tips of how to be a great dad:
1)Family First (Above all else)
2)Committed Marriage
3)High Moral Standard / Role Model
4)Good listener & supporter
5)Show Love
*group hug*
A heartwarming father's day video tribute:
Lyrics:
"From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms
I knew I'd meet death 'fore I'd let you meet harm
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be man enough?
Against wrong, choose right and be standin' up
From the hospital that first night
Took a hour just ta get the car seat in right
People drivin' all fast, got me kinda upset
Got you home safe, placed you in your basinette
That night I don't think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt
'Cause I know I loved you more than life itself
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord please
Let me be a good daddy, all he needs
Love, knowledge, discipline too
I pledge my life to you, uh
Just the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I
Five years old, bringing comedy
Everytime I look at you I think man a little me just like me
Wait an see gonna be tall makes me laugh 'cause
You got your dads ears an all
Sometimes I wonder, what you gonna be?
A General, a Doctor, maybe a MC
Haha, I wanna kiss you all the time
But I will test that butt when you cut outta line
Trudat uh uh uh why you do dat?
I try to be a tough dad, but you be makin' me laugh
Crazy joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy
I pledge to you, I will always do
Everything I can show you how to be a man
Dignity, integrity, honor an' I don't mind if you lose
Long as you came with it an' you can cry, ain't no shame it it
It didn't work out with me an your mom
But yo, push come to shove you was conceived in love
So if the world attacks, and you slide off track
Remember one fact, I got your back
Just the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I
It's a full time job to be a good dad
You got so much more stuff than I had
I gotta study just to keep with the changin' times
101 Dalmations on your CD-ROM
See me, I'm tryin to pretend I know
On my PC where that CD go
But yo, ain't nuthin' promised, one day I'll be gone
Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong
But just in case, it's my place to impart
One day some girl's gonna break your heart
And ooh ain't no pain like from the opposite sex
Gonna hurt bad, but don't take it out on the next son
Throughout life people will make you mad
Disrespect you and treat you bad
Let God deal with the things they do
'Cause hate in your heart will consume you too
Always tell the truth, say your prayers
Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears
You're living proof that dreams come true
I love you and I'm here for you, uh
Just the two of us
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I
Just the two of us, I'm always here for you
Whatever you need just call on me
Whatever you need I'll be there for anytime
You and I"

Re: Brandywine Christian Kinship Recruiting New Members
The secret to freedom is courage.
Courage is not the absence of fear, it is the resistance of fear.
Aung San Suu Kyi bravely stood for her people despite of her difficult circumstances.
She is brave and now she is free!
She has emerged victorious!
Congratulations!
Nobel Peace Prize Winner Aung San Suu Kyi (June 16th 2012 Speech):
"Pray on, then, pray on
This is your duty and your task.
To God the answering belongs
Yours is the simpler part, to ask"
Jesus told his disciples a story about how they should keep on praying & never give up" ~Luke 18:1
We may sometimes feel we’re like the persistent woman in Jesus’ parable recorded in Luke 18. She keeps coming to the judge, badgering him & trying to wear him down so he’ll give in. But we know that God is kinder & more powerful than the judge in Luke 18:5. We trust Him, for He is good, wise & sovereign.
"I will help this woman because she keeps on bothering me. If I don't help her, she will wear me out." ~Luke18:5
So we ask Him, "Our God, show your strength! Show us once again.” ~Psalms 68:28
And then we trust Him and wait.
"Let this be our prayer when we lose our way
Lead us to the place guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe "
~Celine Dion's The Prayer

Actually, religious content has always existed in gaming. Morrowind, Skyrim, Oblivion, and even Final Fantasy X involves religion of some kind. Let's not forget about all those Christian-based games out there, like Heaven (the game). Dungeons and Dragons mentions religion several times in their video games, I do know this much. I myself am a Christian, though I admit, I believe in the unification of all Christian denominations, not the separation. My character is low leveled in landroval, so... I may actually go and join.

A few weeks ago on October marked the day in 1979 when Mother Theresa received her Nobel Peace Prize.
Therefore, our newest kin newsletter is inspired from it:
