Did you know that your freezer is your best friend? If not, re-kindle that friendship! I love cooking in big batches and I buy a lot of foods in bulk. Consequently I normally cannot eat or use up all that I have before it starts to go bad. Your freezer can preserve foods for you so that you are not wasting it. I use large freezer friendly bags and wash them after each use. And I always put a small strip of masking tape on my bags and label the contents and date so I know exactly what I am pulling out or how long it needs to stay in there.
I have compiled a pretty large list of freezer friendly foods for you! I hope this helps you start your clean eating journey and helps you save some money, too!
Pre-Cooked Rice – I pre-cook large batches of brown rice to eat throughout the month. Whether I want something different for breakfast in the morning or if I am throwing a quick stir-fry dinner together, I have frozen single servings of rice available right in the freezer. I divide my rice into 1 cup and 2 cup bag servings. Simply take out and thaw!
Fruit and Berries – I LOVE freezing over ripe fruit and I always have bags of frozen fruit in my freezer! I pop some in my morning smoothies, snack on frozen grapes and make AMAZING banana soft serve “ice cream”! If you see a great buy on fruit, purchase extra. Let it get super ripe, wash and clean and simply place it in a freezer bag.
Fresh Herbs – Fresh herbs freeze very well! Simply place on a flat surface – like a sheet pan or a large plate – and then place in a bag. This is so helpful if you grow your own herbs!
Vegetables and scraps – There are several times I buy an entire box of vegetables and I may not use them all before they start to go bad. Most vegetables can easily be frozen – wash and cute prior to placing them in the freezer. You can even make your own one-skillet meals this way – chop stir fry veggies and freeze them with brown rice. You have a simple meal when you don’t have time to cook!
Also, save all of those vegetable scraps for homemade broth!
Baked Goods and Bread – Make double batches of waffles, pancakes, muffins, cookies, etc. and freeze them! This is great when you have guests over and you want to quickly thaw a few cookies. Or instead of purchasing freezer waffles, make extra ones in the morning, let them completely cool and store in a zip lock bag! Breakfast is served! TIP: Make sure your baked goods are COMPLETLY cooled down before placing in a container to freeze!
Citrus Rinds – Ever need zest for a recipe? Those frozen rinds of orange, lemon or lime will be right at your fingertips! Make sure you scrub the rinds, dry completely and then freeze!
Soups, Chili or Stews – This is my favorite freezer food! Normally I never have any extra to freeze but if I do I fill a zip-lock bag, squeeze all the air out and lay flat in the freezer. Perfect for lunches or dinners in a hurry!
Tomato Paste – I don’t always use the entire can of tomato paste so I spoon the paste into an ice cube tray. Just pop one out when you need it!
Wine – I’m not a huge wine drinker – maybe a glass once a week. But I do love cooking with it! I hate wasting wine so I will pour any un-used portion left into an ice cube tray and freeze! Pop them out and store in a zip lock bag and use the next time you are feeling adventurous in the kitchen!
This is my list of favorite freezer foods! I would LOVE to hear yours!

Fairfax County, Maryland has agreed to a $2 million dollar settlement from an unarmed man being shot and killed by police. In 2006, a Fairfax County police officer shot an unarmed man in front of his townhouse. The man was being arrested by a SWAT team for betting on football games when the officer claimed his gun accidently discharged and killed the man. The police officer was never charged with a crime, and the prosecutor’s office deemed it an accidental shooting.
This type of case here in Kentucky would be a civil right violation and negligence action. Such a case in Kentucky where a person was wrongfully shot and killed by a police officer would be a wrongful death lawsuit brought by the Estate of the deceased, where the Estate would be able to claim damages from the medical bills related to the shooting and the lost lifetime earning capacity of the deceased. Additionally, if the decedent had a wife or children, then there would be a claim for loss of consortium by such family members.
In Kentucky, in wrongful death suits, the damages that can be sought will likely reach over a million dollars due to the claim for a lifetime of lost wages.

My GBS story started on October 5, 2009. I woke up to find my almost 2 month old barely able to breathe. We rushed him to Children's Hospital in Omaha and upon arrival he had stoped breathing altogether. They rushed him back and put a breathing mask on him to get him ready for a breathing tube to be put it. At first they had no idea what would have caused this, so they pumped him full of fluids and meds while they took blood and even did a spinal tap to try and get answers. Once they got him stable and up to the PICU the results came back -- Group B strep.
He was on a ventilator for 1 week in the PICU while getting so many different types of meds I lost count. He didn't even look like my little boy with all the fluids in him. It was the scariest thing I have ever gone through. He fought his way back and was released after another week on the recovery floor. Now he is happy and healthy, but we will never forget what he went through and thank God that we still have him with us. I wish people knew that GBS isn't just passed on to the baby at birth. They can get late-onset GBS as well. We took a parenting class when I was pregnant and we hardly discussed this illness. I just wish more information was out there about it so parents can be aware that it is a very deadly thing that a baby can catch later on in life, too.

The outlawing of Zero Hours Contracts in Aotearoa this April was big news for the Left and union movement abroad, with the result that Unite union activists were invited to speak at conferences and parliaments in Ireland, Britain and the USA last month.
In Ireland, I spoke to a cross party committee in the Dail, where TDs and activists from Sinn Fein, the Anti Austerity Alliance and People Before Profit considered how Irish unions could turn to the Left, in the wake of the decimation of Ireland’s neoliberal Labour Party and its replacement in may working class areas by socialist and radical MPs.
In the North of Ireland, myself and Mike Treen were present during the Assembly elections, which saw the election of two Marxist MLAs in the heartlands of the struggle- Derry and West Belfast. Zero hours are a plague on the working poor in both parts of Ireland- it was great to see the rise of a socialist alternative to the politics of Green and Orange win representation for a working class that feels communal politics has ignored their suffering.
First off, people abroad were very happy that a fighting union like Unite has successfully unionised the fast food industry and won some tangible victories there- in the USA, the SEIU union has been fighting for $15 and a Union for several years now, but now wants formal union recognition in these industries. The defeat of Zero Hours also raises new answers to the academic theorists who argue there is a new class- the Precariat, who cannot be organised. So, in this respect, many of these countries think the example of Unite in NZ is one worth repeating abroad.
Even though I have some strong disagreements with the Corbyn/McDonnell leadership of Labour on issues like the reformabilty of the EU, there is no doubt that the program they have to revitalise the union movement and take the fight to the Tories both inside and outside of parliament, is one that every radical should get behind. Many people in New Zealand ask the question- where is our Jeremy Corbyn? With the recent announcement on maintaining 90 day trial periods, I struggle to think it is Andrew Little.
In Ireland, this went a stage further. The Irish Labour Party has been practically wiped out, after betraying the massive mandate it got from Irish workers to stop austerity- instead, it joined a right wing coalition government and introduced brutal taxes on working people, including a hated Water Tax, which saw a massive movement explode onto the streets. Hundreds of thousands of people marched, not only mobilised by radical groups such as People Before Profit, the Anti Austerity Alliance or Sinn Fein, but also by five large trade unions that broke from the Labour Party stranglehold on action, mobilising workers through union channels in huge numbers.
The rise of a new Left in Ireland was not an overnight occurence. Marxists made a turn away from propaganda group campus rhythyms after the Battle of Seattle, instead concentrating on community activity in working class areas. In many working class areas in Ireland’s major cities, the socialist left have been active fighting attacks on working people for decades- fighting for housing, rent control, refugee and gay rights, and against Household, Bin and Water taxes. The result has been the election of dozens of councillors, 6 AAA-PBP TDs, and another dozen or so radical left independent TDs, as well as a bigger group of 30 or so Sinn Fein TDs.
One of the reasons why the Left in Irleand concentrated on community politics, was, in my mind, that any radical route in the unions was blocked by the Labour Party bureaucracy and its ideology of partnership. Gino Kenny, TD for working class Clondalkin, describes himself as a Shop Steward for his area, which has suffered severe economic deprivation. He famously flew the Palestinian flag on his election, which shows also a deep internationalism in the Irish working class with the suffering of people abroad.
Could something in the community to the left of the Labour-Greens alliance emerge from the current crisis- prehaps concentrating on a burning issue for working people like the Zero Hours Campaign began. A working title could be Housing Action or Rent Control Now? There are hundreds of activists to the left of both Labour and the Greens who could be organised by such a campaign- and we could force the issue onto the agenda.
Waatea 5th Estate: Why is New Zealand in Iraq?
It is how communism can work, on a small scale level, as in community, communal etc. Communism is probably the definitive explanation of how the real enemy is actually “big” not really any one monetary system or other. We are running into more and more trouble as corporations and governments get bigger and bigger, leaving the general populace less and less able to do things for themselves.
It’s a shame that socialism-communism was hijacked by the former USSR. The concept is forever tarred by the brutal dictators of that benighted country.
Communism is a totalitarian political ideology that cannot survive without the suppression of the citizenry. It has failed utterly, and thankfully has, for the most part, been consigned to the dustbin of history.
Your simplistic views on the lessons of history are laughable.
You didn;t read my post properly, did you? I’m not talking about ‘in principle’, I’m talking about ‘in practice’.
What a tired old argument. Communism didn’t exactly assist moving countries towards democracy, did it?
I think it could be argued that communism did Cuba more good than harm, but more importantly I would ask if anyone at all has really helped any country towards real democracy.
Look at Chile, Vietnam, etc and weep.
Communism as a brand attached to the USSR, hardly describes China today.
What is more totalitarian than Capitalism.
Throwing around labels does little in describing a path to organisation or governance for the good of the many while preserving a humane level of rights for families and individuals encompassing all in society.
Socialism as a broad brush describes a path NZ was forced to follow after capitalism brought down the global economies early in the 20th century – and we did well to lift our population out of that mess created through the lack of socialism and social responsibility.
A strong move to establish more cooperative organisation can have many positive consequences for all.
A “Kiwi Alone” direction is not new and need reviving. Needless to say Corporate control has to be countered.
Black and white judgements on economic models will not lead us to deal with the current lack of social responsibility.
Joe Carolan is a very capable and principled man, and his article here shows he understands the mood of the working class. Perhaps it took a trip abroad to get him to see that things have changed dramatically, and that people everywhere are finally ready for struggle.
Socialism in New Zealand must be built around community activism, not the political formalism that we’ve been captive to for so long.
This requires leadership. But before the Left can rediscover the concept of “leadership”, we have to understand what leadership actually means. It is not about dogma or saviours, or charismatic figures, it is about day-to-day empowerment of ordinary people. It is about training and skills. It is about trusting people enough to delegate to them, and being tolerant enough of their failings to pick them up, dust them off, retrain them and trust them again. It is about recalibrating people’s expectations, away from learned-helplessness and whining dependency on “the Government”, and toward the notion that WE are the government, that the government is what we make it, and that all of us have a personal duty to rise up and build socialism where we live and work.
Obsession with Internationalism and Imperialism has for too long been an excuse for avoiding the hard yaka of community-building. But real human beings, real working class families are hurting and in pain NOW, and we, as Socialists, are the only people who can even begin to create the social networks and institutions required to alleviate their suffering. This must be done *before* we can toss out the government, not as a consequence of it. This is about taking back our power to make and unmake society as the people decide, not asking for permission from illegitimate corporate-appointed political apparatchiks.
All this we do, not from any moralistic do-gooder notions, but because we genuinely need the skills and resources locked up in the great reservoir of talent we call the Working Class. We do not give them dignity, rather, they confer their dignity on us by their choice to join in the struggle. The poor and the disadvantaged have all the abilities, strength, loyalty and commitment we need to swell our numbers and bring about real change. But this can only happen if we redefine “leadership” enough to reach out to them, support them, liberate their time, and train them up to fulfill the roles they choose for themselves.
Without them, we are nothing. With them, we can make a Political Revolution in New Zealand now. We don’t need a Bernie Sanders, Jeremy Corbyn or Andrew Little to save us. We can save ourselves.

the outlawing of zero hours contracts in aotearoa this april was big news for the left and union movement abroad, with the result that unite union activists were invited to speak at conferences and parliaments in ireland, britain and the usa last month.
in ireland, i spoke to a cross party committee in the dail, where tds and activists from sinn fein, the anti austerity alliance and people before profit considered how irish unions could turn to the left, in the wake of the decimation of ireland’s neoliberal labour party and its replacement in may working class areas by socialist and radical mps.
in the north of ireland, myself and mike treen were present during the assembly elections, which saw the election of two marxist mlas in the heartlands of the struggle- derry and west belfast. zero hours are a plague on the working poor in both parts of ireland- it was great to see the rise of a socialist alternative to the politics of green and orange win representation for a working class that feels communal politics has ignored their suffering.
first off, people abroad were very happy that a fighting union like unite has successfully unionised the fast food industry and won some tangible victories there- in the usa, the seiu union has been fighting for $15 and a union for several years now, but now wants formal union recognition in these industries. the defeat of zero hours also raises new answers to the academic theorists who argue there is a new class- the precariat, who cannot be organised. so, in this respect, many of these countries think the example of unite in nz is one worth repeating abroad.
even though i have some strong disagreements with the corbyn/mcdonnell leadership of labour on issues like the reformabilty of the eu, there is no doubt that the program they have to revitalise the union movement and take the fight to the tories both inside and outside of parliament, is one that every radical should get behind. many people in new zealand ask the question- where is our jeremy corbyn? with the recent announcement on maintaining 90 day trial periods, i struggle to think it is andrew little.
in ireland, this went a stage further. the irish labour party has been practically wiped out, after betraying the massive mandate it got from irish workers to stop austerity- instead, it joined a right wing coalition government and introduced brutal taxes on working people, including a hated water tax, which saw a massive movement explode onto the streets. hundreds of thousands of people marched, not only mobilised by radical groups such as people before profit, the anti austerity alliance or sinn fein, but also by five large trade unions that broke from the labour party stranglehold on action, mobilising workers through union channels in huge numbers.

WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration is opposed to even limited U.S. military intervention in Syria because it believes rebels fighting the Assad regime wouldn't support American interests if they were to seize power right now, Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, wrote to a congressman in a letter obtained by The Associated Press.
Effectively ruling out U.S. cruise missile attacks and other options that wouldn't require U.S. troops on the ground, Dempsey said the military is clearly capable of taking out Syrian President Bashar Assad's air force and shifting the balance of the Arab country's 2 1/2-year war back toward the armed opposition. But he said such an approach would plunge the United States deep into another war in the Arab world and offer no strategy for peace in a nation plagued by ethnic rivalries.

“Communities that thrive, do not get that way by idleness”, said keynote speaker Dr. Ralph Armstrong during the National Philanthropy Day (NPD) dinner celebration at San Juan Oaks on Wednesday, November 15, 2017. The event, which was attended by 300 people, recognized 42 outstanding nonprofit volunteers in San Benito County. This year, the NPD highlighted philanthropic health service members of the community who have dedicated their lives to the well-being of residents in our county.
Dr. Armstrong, an Obstetrician-Gynecologist in Hollister, touched on his reasons for giving back to the community where he works and lives. The Armstrong family arrived to Hollister in 2005, from Georgia, after their search for a small town with a good sense of community. As a child, Dr. Armstrong first became involved in volunteerism with the Boy Scouts of America. He said, “We were constantly doing service projects to help our community or were just involved in the organization’s leadership.” With his parents as examples of how to make a community a better place, Dr. Armstrong focused on helping people live healthy lives. He centered his profession around health care and has strongly stood behind many local organizations that were present over the years. Organizations like Emmaus House, Hollister Pregnancy Center, San Benito Health Foundation, Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital, Hazel Hawkins Hospital Foundation, and the Hazel Hawkins Auxiliary have all been platforms for Dr. Armstrong to give back to his community.
The people involved with nonprofit organizations in San Benito County understand, Dr. Armstrong shared, “the good feeling that you get when you give to our community —it is what makes our community great.” Dr. Armstrong ended by thanking all who contribute to these worthwhile organizations.

What Does Britain Do Better Than America?
Bet the Brits can't chant "U-S-A" as aggressively as we can!
Brits and ‘Murricans. Sure, they read different versions of Harry Potter, and they might never agree on what to call fried potato fragments—but both sides admit that sometimes, Brits do it better.
While many US residents would object to the implied premise of the question—i.e., that Britain does, in fact, do some things better than the US—others were happy to supply ponypatrol with a fair answer, even if the idea of across-the-board British superiority might ruffle their eagle feathers.
The Brits, of course, were largely too polite to brag on their own collective national behalf—which is yet another item on the list of things they do better than Team America.
Other novel points of pride might include the ability to greet a governor without giggling or their comprehension of the incomprehensible: cricket, parliament, tea (what even is that?!), and the Crown Jewels (non-euphemistic context).
But the biggest sources of bragging rights might be a little more obscure, as redditors showed in their responses to ponypatrol. Here are a few of the highlights.

It will happen today, tomorrow and the next day. In fact, a new study commissioned by a coalition of U.S. organizations says that on any given day, nearly one in 10 young male dropouts is in jail or juvenile detention, compared with one in 35 young male high school graduates. Another given: Male dropouts were 47 times more likely to be incarcerated than their peers of a similar age who had graduated from a four-year college, the report says.
The study, Consequences of Dropping Out of High School: Joblessness and Jailing for High School Dropouts and the High Cost for Taxpayers, paints a portrait of the employment, earnings, incarceration and parenting experiences of dropouts ages 16 to 24 and their better-educated peers. The study was conducted by researchers at Northeastern University and used census and other government data.
We're trying to show what it means to be a dropout in the 21st-century United States, said Andrew Sum, director of Northeastern's Center for Labor Market Studies. It's one of the country's costliest problems. The unemployment, the incarceration rates - its scary.
A coalition of civil rights and education groups commissioned the study as part of a push for new educational opportunities for the nation's 6.2 million high school dropouts.

Christian belief is largely a Greek mystery belief. The motifs of the Eucharist, the sonship of God, the Redeemer and baptism were traditional elements of ancient cults even before Christianity. The way the Jesus figure initiates his disciples into the Eucharistic ritual in the Eucharistic scene has parallels in traditional mystery cults, where the explication of the ritual act by the respective deity takes place.
The identification of the bread with the "body of Christ" corresponds to e.g. the ritual in the Eleusinian mysteries, in which the god Iakchos = Dionysos in the form of bread (= fruit of his mother Demeter identified with Dionysos) and wine (= from the original Thracian Dionyos cult) or an even stronger intoxication potion (according to Hofmann/Wasson LSD) is consumed by the believers, who thus participate in his divine transformation, and the ritual in the Attis cult, in which the god is consumed in the form of bread, also with the purpose of participation in the divine. In exactly this sense Ignatius of Antioch describes the Christian Eucharist as pharmacon athanasias, as medicine for immortality. (The authenticity and early dating of the Ignatius letters is by no means undisputed).
The theological expression for this dynamic is - related to the Christian idea of the Eucharist - ´transsubstantation´. Psychologically this is a variation of magical thinking: material and metaphysical are identified with each other or at least strongly associated. Thus the ancient oriental images of gods of polytheism were not only regarded by the faithful as images of the gods, but as their real manifestation, i.e. the gods were directly present in their images.
(1) The individual enters into a (at least subjectively felt) direct contact with the divine sphere by participating in the essence of a god (Dionysos). Participation means: The individual merges with the god in the process of his dying and his rebirth. Effect: The individual attains immortality.
(2) Concretely follows from this: the individual attains the guarantee for a happy life beyond. This stands in sharp contrast to the conditions of the exoteric religion, whose cultic observance enables the individual to lead a happy life in this world at most as an effect of the good will of the gods.
At the center of the mystery cult endeavor is a process that radically breaks up the conditions of exoteric polytheism: the individual is not confronted with a god whose grace he is at the mercy of, but shares in his identity. This ´mystery´ is packaged in a polytheistic concept, but is at the same time diametrically opposed to the basic principle of exoteric polytheism, which gapes between gods and humans an abyss that is unbridgeable for humans.
Thus also the type of the religion of salvation in which Christianity has one of its roots has emerged - the other root is Messianic Judaism. Through this mixing the mystery cult idea of participating in the power of the deity became weakened Christianity because the god in whose essence the believer participates is only the "son" of the main god on whose "grace" the believer remains dependent.
Maybe it is possible to package the concept of Christ into a "few words", but the difference to Platonism, which has no idea of a redeemer, is huge.
Platonism at the time of the council of Nicaea had a "Holy Trinity" expressed by Plotinus in his "Enneads".
I know but the difference still remains huge. The Nous is far from being a divine person to which one can attach his belief.
The most important part of the Christian Trinity, the Binity, was pressed into a formula after long, partly physically brutal arguments between Athanasians and Arianians in Nicaea. The Trinity is a product of the Hellenization of Christianity through the adaptation of Plotin's New Platonism (Plotin however was an opponent of Christianity). Inspired by Plato, Plotin taught the Absolute One (Hen), from which emanations gradually emerge downwards, first the Nous (reason, spirit), then the world soul and then last and least the material. Several Church Fathers, e.g. Ambrosius, Eusebius and Kyrill, had received Plotin, also with regard to their own trinity-theoretical speculations.
It is not difficult to recognize that the Hen can be assigned to God the Father, Nous to Christ and the world soul to the Holy Spirit, even if the classical Trinity concept deviates from the neoplatonic pattern. The Hen is the all-bringing, the Nous is the world-spanning reason (in the sense of the Logos = Christ in John´s gospel) and the world soul is the power which relates the divine (the Hen) with the material, thus inwardly vitalizing matter. The latter function corresponds roughly to that of the Holy Spirit, which of course does not, as with Plotin, permeate all material life, but is to be understood as the enlightening penetration of the divine into human consciousness.
So the difference is really huge.
No one is saying that Christianity is an exact copy of Platonism. The assertion is that Christianity incorporated and repackaged elements of Platonism, along with components of other existing and prior religions, Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Persian, etc, to formulate a separate belief. This combination was unique, but certainly not new.
The thing is that in order to spread their doctrine and to reach the higher and well-educated social strata in the Roman Empire, the early Christians had to integrate Greek philosopical approaches into their belief, otherwise that doctrine would have been considered too simple and inappropriate for an educated person.
This combination was unique, but certainly not new.
I think what is unique is in a way new, too. What distinguished Christianity from other religions (mystery or not) was the linear concept of history (adopted from Judaism which probably adopted it from Mazdaism) and the sacrifized "son of God" mediating between humans and the main god.
Such a combination was certainly new, except for Mazdaism which has also the concept of linear history and a redeemer, who is, however, by far not a central figure as is Jesus in Christianity.
Yes. I thought of Plotinus this morning. Mos relevant of the Neo-Platonists.
Greeks had true monarchs, who did consult their friends and were expected to, but did not need to consult elected councils, ever since Alexander and Diadochs. Long before Romans.
And Hellenism was invented by Jews. The writer of Maccabees, specifically.
How does it follow - "Catholicism, hence Christianity"?
Precisely which features of Orthodoxy show features of Roman paganism where it diverges from Greek paganism?
Greek society in the early centuries of Christianity was less democratic than Phalo says, but both the Hellenistic world and the Roman Empire had more democracy than chornedsnorkak says.
The Greek world in the classic age was composed of many hundreds of independent city states around the Mediterranean, almost all with a more or less republican government. Those republics ranged from oligarchic republics to Athenian type democracies and many cities changed their constitutions often. On the borders of the Greek world were a number of larger semi Greek states, many kingdoms like, for example, Macedon.
In the Hellenistic age the mighty Persian Empire was conquered and large Macedonian-Greek kingdoms were founded in the former Achaemenid lands. The Hellenistic rulers founded Greek cities and imported Greek settlers to those cities spreading Greek culture hundreds and thousands of miles eastward, where it lasted for decades or centuries in some places, and for over a millennia in places that came to be part of the Roman Empire. Many of the new Greek cities in the Hellenistic kingdoms had a varying degree of self rule and republican and sometimes slightly democratic government.
As the Roman Republic and later Empire conquered more and more lands inhabited by non Latin and non Italian peoples, they created provinces. The tribal states or city states that existed in those provinces continued to exist under Roman rule, though the Romans sometimes combined small states into a single larger one, or divided large states into smaller ones. The hundreds of states in the Roman empire were encouraged by the Romans to adopt rather oligarchic but at least a little democratic republican governments, much like Rome itself.
So in the early Christian centuries, people in most parts of the Roman Empire were part of a civitas, a city state ruled by a council and magistrates elected by a varying percentage of the free men of the city state, and which was part of a Roman province which was part of the Roman Empire, ruled by a powerful but not legally or practically absolute emperor.
RE: Bertrand Russell - 1945 - The metaphysics of Plotinus begins with a Holy Trinity: The One, Spirit and Soul.
I know but the difference still remains huge.
The Nous is far from being a divine person to which one can attach his belief.
I disagree since the Platonist and the Stoic philosophers considered that this "Nous" to be - in part - a [personal] "Guardian spirit".
The Greeks referred to it as the "Daimon" and the Romans as the "Genius".
In fact if one reads this selection of quotes below one can see how the New Testament has used this philosophical/metaphysical concept.
Seneca is treated in the 4th century as a "secret Christian", and correspondence between him and Paul was circulated as genuine.
The concept of the indwelling Christian "Holy Spirit" seems to have its roots in Greek and Roman philosophical schools.

lowercased:
christian belief is largely a greek mystery belief. the motifs of the eucharist, the sonship of god, the redeemer and baptism were traditional elements of ancient cults even before christianity. the way the jesus figure initiates his disciples into the eucharistic ritual in the eucharistic scene has parallels in traditional mystery cults, where the explication of the ritual act by the respective deity takes place.
the identification of the bread with the "body of christ" corresponds to e.g. the ritual in the eleusinian mysteries, in which the god iakchos = dionysos in the form of bread (= fruit of his mother demeter identified with dionysos) and wine (= from the original thracian dionyos cult) or an even stronger intoxication potion (according to hofmann/wasson lsd) is consumed by the believers, who thus participate in his divine transformation, and the ritual in the attis cult, in which the god is consumed in the form of bread, also with the purpose of participation in the divine. in exactly this sense ignatius of antioch describes the christian eucharist as pharmacon athanasias, as medicine for immortality. (the authenticity and early dating of the ignatius letters is by no means undisputed).
the theological expression for this dynamic is - related to the christian idea of the eucharist - ´transsubstantation´. psychologically this is a variation of magical thinking: material and metaphysical are identified with each other or at least strongly associated. thus the ancient oriental images of gods of polytheism were not only regarded by the faithful as images of the gods, but as their real manifestation, i.e. the gods were directly present in their images.
(1) the individual enters into a (at least subjectively felt) direct contact with the divine sphere by participating in the essence of a god (dionysos). participation means: the individual merges with the god in the process of his dying and his rebirth. effect: the individual attains immortality.
(2) concretely follows from this: the individual attains the guarantee for a happy life beyond. this stands in sharp contrast to the conditions of the exoteric religion, whose cultic observance enables the individual to lead a happy life in this world at most as an effect of the good will of the gods.
at the center of the mystery cult endeavor is a process that radically breaks up the conditions of exoteric polytheism: the individual is not confronted with a god whose grace he is at the mercy of, but shares in his identity. this ´mystery´ is packaged in a polytheistic concept, but is at the same time diametrically opposed to the basic principle of exoteric polytheism, which gapes between gods and humans an abyss that is unbridgeable for humans.
thus also the type of the religion of salvation in which christianity has one of its roots has emerged - the other root is messianic judaism. through this mixing the mystery cult idea of participating in the power of the deity became weakened christianity because the god in whose essence the believer participates is only the "son" of the main god on whose "grace" the believer remains dependent.
maybe it is possible to package the concept of christ into a "few words", but the difference to platonism, which has no idea of a redeemer, is huge.
platonism at the time of the council of nicaea had a "holy trinity" expressed by plotinus in his "enneads".
i know but the difference still remains huge. the nous is far from being a divine person to which one can attach his belief.
the most important part of the christian trinity, the binity, was pressed into a formula after long, partly physically brutal arguments between athanasians and arianians in nicaea. the trinity is a product of the hellenization of christianity through the adaptation of plotin's new platonism (plotin however was an opponent of christianity). inspired by plato, plotin taught the absolute one (hen), from which emanations gradually emerge downwards, first the nous (reason, spirit), then the world soul and then last and least the material. several church fathers, e.g. ambrosius, eusebius and kyrill, had received plotin, also with regard to their own trinity-theoretical speculations.
it is not difficult to recognize that the hen can be assigned to god the father, nous to christ and the world soul to the holy spirit, even if the classical trinity concept deviates from the neoplatonic pattern. the hen is the all-bringing, the nous is the world-spanning reason (in the sense of the logos = christ in john´s gospel) and the world soul is the power which relates the divine (the hen) with the material, thus inwardly vitalizing matter. the latter function corresponds roughly to that of the holy spirit, which of course does not, as with plotin, permeate all material life, but is to be understood as the enlightening penetration of the divine into human consciousness.
so the difference is really huge.
no one is saying that christianity is an exact copy of platonism. the assertion is that christianity incorporated and repackaged elements of platonism, along with components of other existing and prior religions, greek, roman, egyptian, persian, etc, to formulate a separate belief. this combination was unique, but certainly not new.
the thing is that in order to spread their doctrine and to reach the higher and well-educated social strata in the roman empire, the early christians had to integrate greek philosopical approaches into their belief, otherwise that doctrine would have been considered too simple and inappropriate for an educated person.
this combination was unique, but certainly not new.
i think what is unique is in a way new, too. what distinguished christianity from other religions (mystery or not) was the linear concept of history (adopted from judaism which probably adopted it from mazdaism) and the sacrifized "son of god" mediating between humans and the main god.
such a combination was certainly new, except for mazdaism which has also the concept of linear history and a redeemer, who is, however, by far not a central figure as is jesus in christianity.
yes. i thought of plotinus this morning. mos relevant of the neo-platonists.
greeks had true monarchs, who did consult their friends and were expected to, but did not need to consult elected councils, ever since alexander and diadochs. long before romans.
and hellenism was invented by jews. the writer of maccabees, specifically.
how does it follow - "catholicism, hence christianity"?
precisely which features of orthodoxy show features of roman paganism where it diverges from greek paganism?
greek society in the early centuries of christianity was less democratic than phalo says, but both the hellenistic world and the roman empire had more democracy than chornedsnorkak says.
the greek world in the classic age was composed of many hundreds of independent city states around the mediterranean, almost all with a more or less republican government. those republics ranged from oligarchic republics to athenian type democracies and many cities changed their constitutions often. on the borders of the greek world were a number of larger semi greek states, many kingdoms like, for example, macedon.
in the hellenistic age the mighty persian empire was conquered and large macedonian-greek kingdoms were founded in the former achaemenid lands. the hellenistic rulers founded greek cities and imported greek settlers to those cities spreading greek culture hundreds and thousands of miles eastward, where it lasted for decades or centuries in some places, and for over a millennia in places that came to be part of the roman empire. many of the new greek cities in the hellenistic kingdoms had a varying degree of self rule and republican and sometimes slightly democratic government.
