my first entry in the new blog

Hi everybody,

this is a blog for my english spoken friends all over the world. I am not a native english speaker, but I will try to write a good english, as much as I can.

For those who don't know me yet. My name is Markus and I am from Duesseldorf in germany. I am husband, a father, a son, a brother, a friend and so much more the people want me to be. In my free time I love to be with my family and when theres time, I love to play wii or xbox (sometimes with my familiy). ;-)

I was inspirated to write an english blog by Bianca who lives in Los Angeles. She is a very talented preacher and a very cute person. I don't really know how I become acquainted with her and I don't know her personally, but now I am reading her blog daily.

If you are interested, you find her here:

Bianca wrote nearly every day a question or a statement about the belief and other things in life what has to do with the Lord in her blog and so will I do in the hope that anybody read this anytime and gives her or his statment to this.

So my first question will be:

Is it possible to be a good human or to be a good servant for god, if I abuse children? Will god forgive those people who do criminal abuse of children?

These times in germany we heard every day another terrible new about that in the TV news. Preacher, priest, teacher and many more have done this. They abuse children. In the last twenty years, there are thousends of cases, they find out now. But why only now? If the roman catholic church know about this since years, why didn't they do anything?

In the meantime the most of the cases are barred, sadly.

I hope the wrongdoer receive one's just deserts. And I hope the children who are now adults find they're come to terms with that.

What do you think about that?

So, having said this,
Markus
