同學會(7):李登輝:A person’s wisdom yields patience.: 明智的人,緩於發怒,寬恕愆尤,引以為榮。Proverbs 19:11



李登輝 1923~2020「台灣民主先生」:旺盛的求知欲和悲天憫人之心。使台灣成為一個偉大的國家。「寬恕人的過失便是自己的榮耀」


90年代末,李登輝總統將卸任。他他有一大願望,就是希望能到台大的生命科學院去學基因科學。
他也希望去當傳教士。
當然,這些心願都未了,然而很能表現其旺盛的求知欲和悲天憫人之心。


KJV

The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

11 A person’s wisdom yields patience;
    it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.


箴言:Chapter 19
11明智的人,緩於發怒,寬恕愆尤,引以為榮。



今天是登輝的96歲生日,首先要感謝各界的關心與祝福,還有眾多親友的陪伴,聖經箴言十九章11節:「人有見識就不輕易發怒,寬恕人的過失便是自己的榮耀」。 
 登輝也在今天與陳水扁先生會面了,特別感謝他及致中遠從高雄前來問候,也感謝他帶來了他的攝影集。

 有人問登輝今年的生日願望是什麼?面對亞太的新形勢及兩岸的不穩定,登輝期望「能召喚台灣所有可團結的力量,捐棄成見,拋開藍綠,合而為民、協同為國,使台灣成為一個偉大的國家。」

Caodaism (VietnameseĐạo Cao ĐàiChữ nôm: 道高臺) is a monotheistic syncretic religion officially established in the city of Tây Ninh in southern Vietnam in 1926. 

In the nineteenth century, Spiritism became established in Europe. The likes of Madam BlavatskyAllan Kardec and Victor Hugo championed new religious possibilities. In Vietnam, the age-old traditions of Asian divination and mediumship began to mix with the new traditions of European Spiritism.
To highlight this objective of unity, there is a representation of the Divine Covenant of The Third Amnesty (The Third Alliance) inside every Cao Đài Temple. This Covenant between Heaven and Earth is written and presented to humanity by the Venerable Saints – Victor HugoSun Yat Sen and Trạng Trình Nguyễn Bỉnh Khiêm. Their mission is said to guide humanity into the way of the Third Amnesty. The Covenant is written in French: "Dieu et Humanité Amour et Justice; and in Chinese: 天上天下 博愛公平. This translates into English as: "God and Humanity [for] Love and Justice."[17]



Because reading is its own special kind of magic.
