Edmund Do Nacimento "Pele"

 Edmund Do Nacimento 

Edmund do Nacimento known as Pele is the greatest soccer player to have ever played the beautiful sport. We know that the story of Pele is fascinating because of the manner that he improved upon his soccer skills without having the resources to play soccer. Instead of having a private coach, expensive cleats, and a fancy stadium in which to practice, Pele could not afford a soccer ball or cleats. Pele juggled an orange and improved upon his skills. We learn that Pele dedicated himself to improving upon his soccer skill set so much so that he lived, breathed, and played soccer. We are able to learn from Pele about discipline, innovation, determination, and humility.

Edmund do Nacimento improved upon his soccer skills that he became the best soccer player to ever play the sport. We learn that he was able to win three World Cups with Brazil starting the first World Cup win when he played for Brazil's national team at the age of sixteen. While only being sixteen years of age, Pele helped bolster his team so much that they won a World Cup. Not only did Pele help Brazil win a World Cup, but he repeated the accomplishment two more times. We know that Pele played the position of forward and amazed with how he helped revolutionize the sport of soccer.

We began to learn about the importance of not only being fast and disciplined, but we also learned about the manner that strikers could be skilled at juking and disorienting defenses by themselves. We began to see how striking forwards could be important at destabilizing a defense. We learn that Pele was able to innovate the sport with new manners to juke and strike that had never been seen in the past. We learn that the Pele kick is another innovation of Pele that describes using unorthodox soccer skills to surprise goalkeepers and defenders. There were other skillful moves that Pele helped innovate that caused soccer to improve tremendously into a fast paced and at the same time logical sport. 

We learn that all these achievements were done because of Pele's discipline, determination, and motivation to make the most out of the things he had. We know that he did not make excuses and instead decided to discipline himself even without the needed equipment and accessories. Pele made the most of his dedication and discipline that he is considered the best soccer player of all times. We know that Brazil has five World Cup wins placing Brazil at the top. Brazil is the country with the most World Cup wins of all time. While seeing the achievements of Pele, one would be surprised to know that he not only battled poverty but also racism. This describes that we can improve and grow even amidst the times, circumstances, or hate that we may be going through. This describes that progress can be made even when there is hate and envy without cause. While evil attempts to cause individuals to hate based on superficial things, we learn that we can improve paying attention to the things that matter like improving oneself, attaining discipline and determination, and enjoying life while innovating, appreciating, and creating.

Robin Williams was one of the greatest actors and comedians of all times. We learn that from his films that ranged from drama to comedy, Robin Williams was able to create amazing characters. We are able to remember the amazing characters that he gave life to. We are able to understand the importance of laughter and comedy even in these times that are not the best of times. We know that socialism and communism have attempted to prevent true comedy from being created in the past decade or so because laughter and humor can help us persevere amidst times. We learn about the importance of having humility to persevere knowing that we can have gladness of heart and cheerfulness amidst the times we are living in.

We learn that Robin Williams was able to display high energy and quick wit in the 1990s with amazing films that taught the beauty of seeing the positive of life. Robin Williams allowed us to understand not only the importance of humor and gladness while also allowing us to see the goodness of life. In his film about a robot who wants to know how it feels to be human, we see the beauty of being human. Robin Williams' character of a robot who wants to be human helps us know that there is beauty in being human and being distinct and unique. We learn that the robot did not want to be like everyone else nor be a robot. 

We are able to realize that there are good things in being human and the manner that the film described the importance of humanity and authenticity. We learn that at the end of the movie, the robot wanted to actually be human rather than a robot. We learn that this describes the importance of our humanity that describes the need to appreciate the good things. We know that there are other films of post-modernism that try to diminish or critique the importance of being human, while forgetting or ridiculing the beauty of humanity. We are able to distinguish positive movies that help us persevere with positivity, humor, and goodness from negative, discouraging, and false and lying messages.

Patch Adams was another film that describes the importance of humanizing medicine with the portrayal of a real physician that went through hate and envy for being unique and different. We learn that the film Patch Adams described the importance of humility, responsibility, authenticity, and fraternity. Robin Williams was able to describe the importance of being human while taking care of patients.

In these times, we know that we can learn so much from Patch Adams and the need to avoid arrogance and unneeded strife.

Frederic Bastiat

 Frederic Bastiat

"Having faith in the free market means having faith in the Creator."

Frederic Bastiat was a libertarian that described the importance of trusting in the Creator. We learn that he described the importance of the free market and the ability of individuals to practice free trade without monopoly "capitalism" and also without the false ideologies of socialism and communism. We learn that Bastiat recognized that trusting in the free market meant trusting in the Creator. This describes that the free market of true capitalism allows individuals to create and produce industry that allows for the best materials, produce, and ideas to be at the forefront while bad service, bad ideas, and bad produce are relegated to being forgotten. 

This describes that the free market allows individuals to improve and produce industry when there is no corruption and no stagnation. The free market of true capitalism prevents bad service and bad products from being sold and instead allows for individuals to decide how they spend their time, resources, and have the imperative need to improve every day. This describes how there is freedom and autonomy in true capitalism while socialism, monopoly "capitalism", and communism attempt to decrease autonomy by creating obstacles and preventing a level playing field. We learn that socialism and communism attempt to prevent individuals from producing, innovating, and improving because socialism and communism leads to stagnation. We learn that monopoly "capitalism", socialism, and communism have more in common than true capitalism fashioned after Frederic Bastiat and Frederick Hayek.

We learn that the best products and services in a free market allow for individuals to obtain the best materials and services at reduced costs while allowing for competition. The competition that exists in true capitalism allows individuals to improve their services and products so that consumers get cheaper products and better services. We learn that socialism and communism attempt to discourage innovation by creating bureaucratic red tape that prevents innovation, incentives, and motivation. This is with the intention to limit individuals from improving themselves. We learn that this leads to increased costs of services and products while decreasing the quality of services. In socialism and communism, there are no incentives for improving, producing, and innovating because instead there is envy and coveting that prevents innovation. We learned from communist Cuba how the government attempted to prevent individuals from selling Cuban sandwiches because of their disdain for individuals to produce and create. 

We learn that Frederic Bastiat was hated by socialists and communists in his time because of his stand for the free market, true capitalism, and objection to monopoly "capitalist", socialist, and communist policies that do not help anyone. This describes the importance of understanding and acknowledging that individuals are able to be industrious and productive far apart from the failed policies of monopoly "capitalism", socialism, and communism that have attempted to lead to slothfulness, envy, and coveting. We know that instead responsible capitalism describes the need to guard the importance of motivation, autonomy, and industry describing that we can be sovereign, industrious, and motivated even amidst the times. 

Frederick Hayek

 Frederick Hayek

Frederick Hayek was an individual that is known for his economic policies described in the Austrian School of Economics. We know that Frederick Hayek described the importance of capitalism in order for individuals to better produce, create, and innovate. We learn that Frederick Hayek allowed individuals to know about the importance of true capitalism. 

Frederick Hayek described the importance of competition in a capitalist system so that individuals would be able to produce better services and better products. We learn that competition that exists between companies or individuals allow for better services and products to be created. This allows us to understand why other policies describing monopoly "capitalism" and communism lead to a lack of competition, stagnation, and even worse products and services at increased costs. 

We know that this allows us to know that we can not believe the temporary lies of false philosophies that have the intention to cause stagnation, vices, and essentially the practice of sin. We know that when there is competition and autonomy, individuals are able to keep improving so that they improve their knowledge of improving services and products that leads to better products and services and increased industry. This allows for there to be incentives for diligence, persistence, hard work, and motivation. 

This is different from socialist and communist policies that have the intention to decrease motivation and hard work due to envy and slothfulness. We know that there have been extensive cases where we have seen the manner that socialist and communist policies lead to economic difficulties, negative emotions, and envy. In the case of Aleksandr Solzenitzyn, we learn that communism led to the communists not only attempting to prevent true capitalism but also lead to intrusion of privacy in the manner that the communists were reading the private letters of Solzenitzyn to his friends. This describes how socialism and communism do not help individuals and instead leads to a dystopia of impoverishment due to decreased autonomy, diligence, and improvement based on hard work and dedication. We know that not only are products and services affected, but communism also tries to prevent individuals from having autonomy. For this and so many reasons more, we know that monopoly "capitalism", socialism, and communism are not the best economic policies to practice. We know that true capitalism based on Frederic Bastiat's and Frederick Hayek's economic knowledge allows us to know that we can not accept monopoly "capitalism", socialism, nor communism.

St. Ambrose of Milan

 St. Ambrose of Milan

"Nature knows no rich, since she brings forth all men poor. For we are born without clothes and are brought forth without silver and gold. Naked she brings us to the light of day, and in want of food and covering and drink; and naked the earth receives back what she has brought forth, nor can she stretch man's tombs to cover their possessions."

St. Ambrose was the mentor and friend of St. Augustine. We learn that St. Augustine wrote about the importance of worshiping GOD Almighty above everything and the importance of speaking truth. St. Ambrose of Milan described the importance of humility to fight against greed, avarice, and coveting. We learn that Christianity describes the need to remove vices and prevent vices from developing while we grow in virtues instead. 

"But why do you think that, even while you live, you have abundance of all things? Rich man, you know not how poor you are, how destitute you would seem even to yourself, who call yourself wealthy. The more you have, the more you want; and whatever you may acquire, you nevertheless remain as needy as before. Avarice is inflamed by gain, not diminished by it." 

St. Ambrose has writings that describe the importance of developing humility and temperance so that we do not practice envy, avarice, and greed that attempt to lead to the practice of grave sin. We learn that righteous individuals in the Sacred Scriptures are able to have gratitude to GOD Almighty above everything and are able to persevere without envy and coveting. We learn that Job was able to persevere with abundance or without resources because he decided to worship GOD Almighty above everything. This describes the importance of placing the worship of GOD Almighty above everything including resources. 

This describes the importance of being grateful to GOD Almighty for the good things that we have including favor, blessings, health, virtues that keep increasing in the worship of GOD Almighty, protection from sin, evil, and envy, being able to persevere with salvation, and eternal salvation. We are able to develop temperance and moderation that prevents envy from leading to coveting, greed, and avarice. If we are able to practice gratitude, temperance, and humility, then there is no envy, coveting, nor greed. 

We learn that GOD Almighty is able to help us persevere with the things that we need. We learn that if we do not have something, it is because we do not need it. This describes the manner that we can also be grateful for the things that we do not have because some things attempt to lead to the practice of idolatry. This describes the manner that we can be thankful each day for the good things that we have and also having gratitude for the things that we do not have that we do not need. We know that the worship of GOD Almighty allows us to persevere with eternal salvation in King Jesus Christ and be far from temptations, sin, and vices that want to lead to woes, stagnation, and destruction of the unrepentant wicked.

The problem with false "religion" happens when it attempts to cause individuals to stray from the true faith. Martin Luther described the need to preach based on the Sacred Scriptures. We learn that Martin Luther had opposition from individuals that were not righteous and most likely added additional things that the Sacred Scriptures never stated. We learn that this time period led to the Reformation period where individuals learned about the importance of reading and studying Scripture for themselves while also practicing righteousness and fidelity to GOD Almighty.
