Wow. This is a very comprehensive list of links about Esperanto. Thanks for doing this. And thanks for including a link to the Esperanto Documentary "The Universal Language", too. Pauxleto

Comment on The Top 6 Things I Like About Life in Belarus by Arion's Home Administrator

Interesting…

In Belarus I have seen mostly sunflower seed based Halva…
I think I have tried the sesame based halva too, but I did not like the taste as much. The sunflower seed one is a bit more sweet which I like! =)

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for letting me know about the Norton flagging of my site. =)

I have been confident that HALVA is a sesame seed product-NOT SUNFLOWER (as is the middle-eastern food tahine). The etymology of halva (at least partial) is the arabic word for sweet: halwa.

Comment on Why Esperanto? by mankso

Surely the 7 points of the Prague Manifesto:
http://lingvo.org
should feature prominently somewhere here,
as a modern rationale for Esperanto?

Comment on Why Not English? by Arion's Home Administrator

I agree completely, and I do cover that on another of the pages here. For this page I was concentrating on covering the linguistic reasons.

My Esperanto pages do need a complete reorganization. I really need to figure that out someday.

Thanks for stopping by!

Comment on Why Not English? by Ronald Glossop

For me a main argument for Esperanto and against English is a moral one. It is unfair (unjust) for some individuals to be able to use their native language in international settings while others must use a second or third language. No one chooses where to be born or what language will be their native language. It is a matter of luck, and those who are lucky have a special obligation to level the playing field. As Albert Schweitzer said, “Good fortune obligates.”

Comment on Theological Humanism? A solution to the divide? by ssiverling

Greetings,

Yes, I do think modern christianity has lost it’s way. They care more about buildings and fundraising campaigns then they do about people. Personally, I think pastor’s all pastors ought to be lay pastors.
