“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Dutch justice minister: prosecute sexual abuse indefinitely

The minister of justice has proposed upending the statute of limitations for sexual abuse of children following abuse scandals by Catholic clerics.

The statute of limitations for sexual abuse of children in the Netherlands should be suspended, justice minister Ernst Hirsch Ballin said on Saturday. He did so in response to the latest revelations of sexual abuse of young boys at the hands of Catholic clerics. Since NRC Handelsblad and RNW started investigating cases of sexual abuse at the hands of priests, thousands of victims have come forwards in the Netherlands.

Last week, the minister had already argued in parliament that criminal law should still apply even decades after the sexual abuse had taken place. The statute of limitations for sexual abuse in the Netherlands is currently 20 years after the victim turns 18.

Hirsch Ballin is not the only politician who wants to make sure the sexual abuse of minors doesn’t go unpunished. Frans Timmermans, the former deputy minister of European affairs and a Catholic himself, went on national television on Sunday to say suspects who are only now being identified should not be able to escape justice. The Catholic Church should not conduct its own inquiry, but leave this to others, Timmermans said. Finding out the truth, compensation for victims and punishing the guilty should be paramount in such an inquiry, the former minister said. He called for a “Truth Commission”, like the one introduced in South Africa after apartheid.

Hirsch Ballin’s proposal will not help in this respect. The prosecution of sexual abuse is now limited by the statute of limitations. If the minister’s proposal were written into law, it would only apply to future cases, a spokesperson for the ministry confirmed. It is not yet clear when Hirsch Ballin will introduce his proposal in parliament. Als daar al een meerderheid voor is, moeten we dat wel zeggen.

Five years ago, the government passed on an opportunity to lift the statute of limitations. When the law was being revised in 2005/6, the statute was only revoked for crimes carrying a possible life sentence, such as murder. For serious crimes that carry a sentence of ten years or more, the statute was extended to 20 years.

At the time, sexual abuse barely played a part in parliamentary debate. Donner did raise the question whether the statute of limitations needed to be revoked in cases severe sexual abuse, but he then claimed that it could lead to a selective prosecution of certain cases.
