1. Wedding at Cana

The wedding at Cana was the first of Jesus' miracles.

  It was the first public sign of Jesus' divine ability to bend the rules of nature, to change the course of events.

  Yet this miracle is somewhat strange, for a number of reasons.

  Firstly, it was unplanned by Jesus Himself. Secondly, it had not been sanctioned by God the Ruler of Universe.

  Thirdly, wine has the potential to make people inebriated.

  The plan for the Messiah - despite the fact that a stable among animals and their droppings had been chosen as birth venue, and less than salubrious conditions had reigned during the family's flight into Egypt - surely was for a more dignified setting than a group of rowdy wedding goers tipsy with wine. 

2. Mary knew of Jesus' Powers

It is obvious that Mary well knew that Jesus had miraculous powers.

  This meant that she would have seen Him practise and demonstrate divine power.

  We do not need the details, nor do we really need to know.

  This eyewitness account of John Chapter 2, verses 1 to 12, [1] shows what we need to know - the awesome and inspiring Power of God let loose in our world to the dismay of satan.

  The account further shows evidence of the immense love of Son for mother, of Jesus for Mary.

  It highlights the deep love of God the Father for Mary His chosen, when He accepted the recommendation of a woman over His own own Divine Plan and Will.

3. The Mishnah

Jesus had been delighted at the thought of the wedding. 

  According to the Mishnah, [2] the wedding would take place on a Wednesday if the bride was getting married for the first time.

  The wedding would be on a Thursday if the bride was a widow [Ket 1;1].

  The bridegroom and his friends made their way in procession to the bride's house.

  This was often done at night, when there would be a glowing torchlight procession.

  It is probable that there were speeches and expressions of goodwill before both bride and groom went in procession to the groom's house, where the wedding banquet was held. 

  There had in all likelihood been a religious ceremony, but no details are written in John's account. The feast itself could last up to week.

4. Plight of the couple

Mary the mother of Jesus was very involved in the serving of meals and the refreshments. 

  This seems to show a close link with the family of either the bride or groom.

  It is possible the wedding couple were not wealthy, and what had been hoped would be sufficient for the celebrations turned out to be woefully inadequate.

  Mary was informed by the servants of the plight of the couple.

  Perhaps the families hosting the wedding had already been told.

  As anyone who has taken part in assisting with the arrangements for a wedding will know, dismay would have reigned behind the scenes.

Mary, a determined woman who had faced down pregnancy as a single mother until her marriage, life as a refugee in Egypt and the nurturing and parenting of her extraordinary Son Jesus, had no problem making a decision.

  She spoke to Jesus, who was at the wedding in the company of His disciples.

  At this point in the Messiah's ministry, there were possibly five disciples at this stage; Andrew, Simon Peter, Philip, Nathanael and John.

It appears that embarrassment at the lack of refreshment aside, some commentators inform us that the situation was more severe; litigation was possible in such circumstances.

  Apparently the groom could be the recipient of a lawsuit from aggrieved relatives of the bride.

  Mary spoke to Jesus, expecting Him to remedy the situation. 

  He clearly told her that His appointed time to declare His Messianic status to the public had not yet come.

  Mary was not impressed. Anyone who knows that certain look that comes into a devoted mother's eye will realize that this Jewish gentlewoman knew Jesus could help - and expected Him to.

5. Quandary of Jesus

Jesus was in a quandary. He made clear to Mary the enormity of her request.

  She was calling on His powers to assist humble people, and by doing so, setting the whole Plan of God as promised in the Garden of Eden in motion - prematurely, at the will of a human - not as the directive of God.

  Jesus called Mary by the name God had used in the Garden when He made the promise of redemption to our ancestors at the Fall - He used the name 'woman'.

  God had foretold that He would put enmity between satan and the woman - Mary - and between satan's offspring and hers - in other words, Jesus.

  It was foretold that Jesus would crush satan's head, and satan would strike his heel. [Genesis 3;15]. [3]

  And - down the line - so it happened. Satan struck the Messiah's heel with great force and hatred, bringing about His Suffering, Death and Resurrection.

  And Jesus calmly crushed satan's head - symbolizing his demonic power over humanity, earth and the demonic forces.

  Jesus further crushes satan's plan to condemn humanity to eternity in hell under satan's reign.

  This Jesus did by means of the Resurrection, by transfusion of divine life by means of the Eucharist, and by mass evangelisation as directed by Jesus [Acts 1;8]. [4]

6. Mary's Request

Events in the then future aside, Mary asked her Son to show compassion to struggling humanity who, in their hope of a happy wedding, were to have their future blighted by litigation and resultant untoward increase in poverty and humiliation.

  Jesus, having reminded her that His Time to proclaim Himself as Messiah had not yet been sanctioned by God the Father, bent to His mother's command to the servants to do whatever He told them.

  He was well aware of the desperate need of the wedding couple.

  He must have turned His thoughts to God the Father, Who ratified Mary's request.

  For the Son of God Who spoke with Moses and Elijah and Whose Face was always turned to His Father, He was about to make a never to be forgotten entrance on the world stage.

  He helped people at a celebration to get more tipsy than they already were.

7. The First Public Miracle

The first miracle of Jesus was done on extraordinary scale. 

  There were six stone water jars for purification, each able to hold twenty or thirty gallons.

  That equals 120 to 180 gallons of water, or 453 to 680 liters.

  The water the stone jars usually held was used for purification and the cleansing of utensils.

  Jesus directed the servants to fill the stone jars with water, which they did. 

  He then told them to draw some out, and take it to the master of the feast.

  When the master tasted the wine, he declared it the best of the wine of the evening.

And so Jesus' secret was out. He was not what many thought He seemed a Nazarene quietly going about His Life.

  He was much more - He was destined to rip the fabric of the old way of doing things, and institute new ways of behaviour forever.

8. Epic battle with satan had begun

And, as they went home, Jesus must have realized that the epic battle with satan, the then prince of earth, had begun without his volition.

  Perhaps Mary, knowing her Son, considered He needed a push to begin His public ministry.

  It is probable that she did not realize that in so doing, she paved the way to the completion of the prophecy that Simeon had made when Jesus was still a babe in arms.

  A sword was to pierce her soul, a suffering so great that God had given her forewarning through the prophet. [Luke 2;35]. [5]

As Jesus, Mary and the disciples trod down the streets after the banquet, heading for home, only Jesus might have fully understood the full import of His love for Mary, and compassion for the financially struggling wedding couple.

  He walked to His Crucifixion years sooner than had been planned; God's Plan had to be revisited; the future had entirely changed.

  Such is the power of a mother's love for her son; and for the son's love for his mother . . .

STUDIES SHOW SMOKING CAUSES DIABETES, ADVERSELY AFFECTS UNBORN BABIES, CAUSES HEART ATTACKS, BLINDNESS AND DEAFNESS

Smoking plays an important role in the development of diabetes; compared to non-smokers, current smokers have an increase in the occurrence of new onset diabetes. 
  According to new data published by Surgeon General Boris Lushniak, MD, MPH, diabetes is highlighted as one of the several diseases causally linked to smoking. [1]

Epidemiologic and Biological Evidence

The report includes a meta-analysis, which updates a 2007 systemic review. 
  The results were that, compared with nonsmokers, the smokers had a pooled risk for developing type 2 diabetes of 1.37.

  Compared with never-smokers, the relative risk for developing diabetes increased with smoking intensity from 1.14 for former smokers to 1.25 for light smokers [0-19 or 0-15 cigarettes/day in the various studies] to 1.54 for heavy smokers [>  15 or > 20]. [1]

The Surgeon General's Report provides several possible biologic mechanisms for the causal connection between smoking cigarettes and the development of type 2 diabetes. 

  Smoking promotes central obesity, a risk factor for insulin resistance and diabetes. 
  This effect may be due to higher concentrations of cortisol and the differential effect of smoking on sex hormones, according to the data.

  Smoking increases inflammatory markers and oxidative stress, both implicated in insulin resistance development and abnormal metabolism of glucose. [1]

Studies have found functional nicotinic receptors on pancreatic beta and islet cells. 
  Nicotine could, at least in part, reduce insulin release via islet-cell receptors. Animal studies suggest prenatal [before birth, during or relating to pregnancy] or neonatal [relating to newborns] exposure to nicotine can cause beta-cell dysfunction and apoptosis [the death of cells] according to the report. [1]

Moms who smoke during pregnancy increase the risk of their children developing diabetes

The disease process that leads to the development of type 2 diabetes may start in the womb at the beginning of life. Fetal growth and birth weight are predictive of diabetes risk in later years. [2]

  Smoking during pregnancy affects fetal growth and often results in a baby of low birth weight.

  There is direct evidence that a woman who smokes during pregnancy increases the risk of her child developing type 2 diabetes later in life. [2]

  In the UK National Child Development Study, among the study participants who were diagnosed with diabetes by the age of 33 year, almost 60% had a mother who smoked during pregnancy.

  It was further found that the more a mother had smoked during pregnancy, the greater the risk of her child developing diabetes in later life. [2]

Overweight Risk

A study in Germany found that schoolchildren with a mother who smoked during pregnancy were significantly more likely to be overweight or obese than children whose mother did not smoke when pregnant. [2]

Damaged neurological systems

Smoking during pregnancy may damage the development of the central nervous system. 
  This results in outcomes such as reduced intellectual development in children. [2]

Cardiovascular Disease

  Smoking causes cardiovascular disease. Cigarette smoking is the most important preventable cause of premature death in the United States. Cigarette smokers have a higher risk of developing fatty buildup in arteries, several types of cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [lung problems]. 
  Atherosclerosis [buildup of fatty substances in the arteries] is a contributor to the high number of deaths from smoking. 
  Many studies show the evidence that cigarette smoking is a major cause of coronary heart disease, which leads to heart attack. [3]

Secondhand Smoke can cause heart disease and lung cancer

Those who surround smokers are also at risk. 
  Non-smokers who inhale the smoke from others' cigarettes [secondhand smoke] can develop heart disease and lung cancer. [4]

Smoking can cause strokes

Cigarette smoking causes about a two-fold increase in the risk of ischemic stroke and up to a four-fold increase in the risk of haemorrhagic stroke. 
  It has been linked to the buildup of fatty substances [atherosclerosis] in the carotid artery, the main neck artery supplying blood to the brain. 
  Also, nicotine raises blood pressure; carbon monoxide from smoking reduces the amount of oxygen your blood can carry to the brain; and cigarette smoke makes your blood thicker and more likely to clot. Smoking also promotes aneurysm formation.[5]

Smoking can cause cancer anywhere in the body

Cigarette smoking can cause cancer almost anywhere in the body.   Cigarette smoking causes cancers of the lung, mouth, nose, throat, voicebox [larynx], oesophagus, liver, bladder, kidney, pancreas, colon, rectum, cervix, stomach, blood and bone marrow [acute myeloid leukemia]. [6]

Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. In the United States, cigarette smoking is linked to about 90% of lung cancers.
  Using other tobacco products such as pipes or cigars also increase the lung cancer risk. 
  Tobacco smoke is a toxic mix of more than 7,000 chemicals. Many are poisons. 
  At least 70 are known to cause cancer in people or animals.

People who smoke cigarettes are 15 to 30 times more likely to get lung cancer or die from lung cancer than people who do not smoke.[6]

Smoking can lead to vision loss or blindness

Smoking can lead to vision loss. Studies show smoking increases the risk of age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy and Dry Eye syndrome. [7]

  Smoking causes blindness. [8]

Smoking causes hearing loss 

Research from the University of Manchester in the UK found that smoking and passive smoking [seconhand smoking] may increase the risk of hearing loss.

  The researchers calculated that smokers were 15.1% more likely to develop hearing loss, compared with passive smokers and non-smokers, while passive smokers were 28% more likely to develop hearing loss than non-smokers. [9]
  A 2011 study from NYU Langone Medical Center in New York, NY, found that children exposed to secondhand smoke have a higher risk of developing hearing loss in their teens. [9]

Smoking affects diet and nutrition

Smoking affects the tastebuds. Smokings supplies the brain with nicotine, altering and suppressing the smoker's ability to taste flavours. 

  The reduced oxygen supply from inhaling nicotine contributes to dulling of flavour recognition in the mouth. [10]

  Nicotine suppresses appetite because of its affects on the brain and the central nervous system. 

  Smoking irritates the nasal passages which can cause inflammation and impair the sense of smell. [10]

  

Is it morally right to smoke?

From a moral standpoint, everything we do which impacts upon the health, wellbeing and lives of others has a moral dimension.

  It is clear from factual evidence and studies that smoking not only impacts upon the individual smoking, but on others within [during pregnancy] and without [secondary smokers].

  Any action which leads to protracted self poisoning needs to be revisited.

  Any action which leads to illness and poisoning of others is morally to be avoided.

Smoking; Self-poisoning?

Smoking contains a host of ingredients. [11] These include

• Sewer gas [methane]
• Toilet cleaner [ammonia]
• Arsenic [used in rat poison]
• Carbon monoxide [also known as CO, an odourless, colourless poisonous gas]  [12]
• Nicotene [insecticide]
• Cadmium [batteries]
• Paint
• Toluene [industrial solvent]
• Stearic acid [candle wax]
• Butane [lighter fluid]
• Hexamine [barbecue lighter]
• Methanol [rocket fuel]
• Stearic acid [candle wax] 
• Acetone [nail polish remover] 
• Acetic acid [vinegar] 
• Cyanide [poison]
• DDT [banned insecticide]
• Lead [poisonous in high doses]
• Polonium [cancer-causing radioactive element] [11]

Cigarettes containe multiple chemicals - many similar to to substances found in toxic waste dumps. 

  The American Lung Association says that at least 69 of the chemicals found in cigarette smoke are known to cause cancer and that many are poisonous. [11]

Best advice for smoking?

DON'T.

DUBLIN; CELEBRATE THE EIGHTH AMENDMENT RALLY - MEET THE SUPPORTERS

DUBLIN IRELAND SAW SUNSHINE, MUSIC, DANCE 

AND A GRIM DETERMINATION TO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE SANCTITY OF UNBORN LIFE IN THIS LAND. MEET THE SUPPORTERS!

Ms Cora Sherlock

TD Mattie McGrath

Mrs Melissa Ohden

BREAKING NEWS DUBLIN; MELISSA OHDEN DECLARES, "IF IRELAND DOESN'T STAY PROTECTIVE OF UNBORN LIFE, WHO WILL?"

Mrs Melissa Ohden and Rev Catherine Whittle

THOUSANDS RALLIED FROM ALL OVER IRELAND AND FURTHER AFIELD TO STAND BEFORE DAIL EIREANN AND PLEDGE THEIR ALLEGIANCE THAT THE "EIGHTH AMENDMENT MUST STAY!" 

Melissa Ohden, Abortion Survivor
Mrs Melissa Ohden, courageous survivor of an horrendous failed abortion, addressed the cheering crowd. [1] 
  She told us that people everywhere are watching what is happening in this country, and declared 

"If Ireland doesn't stay protective 

of unborn life, WHO WILL?"

  Indeed! If Ireland, the land of saints and scholars, does not stand firm at this crucial time, the very stones would cry out in protest.

Protect Life as opposed to Culture of Death
The 8th Amendment of Ireland strongly protects the unborn child.   The call often heard by prolifers is that women should have choice over their own bodies. 
Well, I agree wholeheartedly. 

The unborn woman within the woman should have the choice not to have her infant body tortured and brutally killed within the womb. 

  The world has been blessed to have Melissa Ohden in our midst. Yet every attempt was made to cruelly wrest her rights away from her when she lay defenceless and unborn in the womb. 
  Melissa cried out from the podium today, calling on Amnesty to support the Eighth Amendment in Ireland.

  "Amnesty was once a defender 

of human rights. Where were my rights 

when I was being slowly burned to death?"

  Melissa, survivor of the tortuous and cruel method of saline infusion abortion, told the crowd how she could have been left to die after the failed abortion. 
  Many babies have reportedly been abandoned after failed abortion, and died. They - tragically - are no longer with us.
  Melissa pointed to the fact that people can do such actions as an indicator that 
"This is what abortion has done to our world."
  The Eighth Amendment in Ireland is an important amendment to protect life, as opposed to a culture of death.

TD Mattie McGrath

TD Mattie McGrath with Rally Organizers

The crowd of thousands cheered Independent TD Mattie McGrath, Champion of the Unborn at the Rally.  
  He continues to show unwavering support for the right of the Unborn to life.

In November 2015, TD McGrath was quoted as saying that "Abortion interventions 

creating a climate of despair," 

Alleged News. [2]

  In the 2015 report, TD McGrath went on to say, "My major concern here is that in all the talk of removing the Eight, there has been a complete absence of any mechanism which proposes to even acknowledge the life of the unborn child at the constitutional level.
  The advocacy groups who are pushing this agenda such as Amnesty Ireland have betrayed a terrifying reluctance to even admit that this is a legitimate area of concern.
  There is a palpable sense that the whole debate is already being manipulated and dragged toward a pre-ordained end; that of unlimited abortion without any kind of legislative restraint.
  The fact that the most recent polls show an ever decreasing margin of support for this kind of approach is brushed aside as irrelevant.
  What is equally frightening however is the atmosphere of complete despair that is being generated by those ministers who have spoken out.
  There has been a total focus on abortion as the only viable option to a crisis pregnancy to the total exclusion of options like peri-natal care hospices or other support services.
  This is not the way to help women in crisis pregnancies; by telling them that ending the life of their child is the only way forward.
  To that extent the drive for removing the Eight Amendment represents a narrowing of 'choice' which is deeply ironic," concluded Deputy McGrath; Alleged News. [2]

Ms Heidi Crowter campaigns on behalf of Down's syndromers

Ms Heidi Crowter wows the crowd

Ms Heidi Crowter rallied the crowds with her inimitable style; her poise, charm and laughter won all as she campaigned for the right to life of those with Down's syndrome.
  Heidi, living a full and happy life with Down's syndrome, called for the Eighth Amendment in Ireland to be protected.
  Both Heidi and her mother spoke of the situation in the UK where over 90% of children with Down's syndrome are aborted, Alleged News. [3]
  In June 2015 an investigation into figures published by the Department of Health revealed the number of abortions carried out because babies were found to have Down's syndrome or other disabilities had increased by 34 per cent in just three years since 2011, Alleged News. [4]
  Heidi lives independently, works as a hairdresser and lives the truth; that Down's syndrome is not a 'serious disability' but a learning curve for the person with the diagnosis, and their family.

Ms Cora Sherlock

Ms Cora Sherlock, well known as an icon of the prolife movement in Ireland, spoke movingly as the crowds cheered her.
  "What we want to see happen after today is that politicians, the media and the public in general will really start to focus on the human side of the Eighth Amendment, the human lives that have been saved by the Eighth Amendment, because I think it's something that has been missing from the debate, and that's what today is all about," declared Cora.
