    What Does “Judge Not Lest You Be Judged” Really Mean? (Matthew 7:1) In Matthew 7, where it says, "Judge not," Jesus is talking, "lest ye be judged." And a lot of people will take that out of its context. Like, "Hey, we are not supposed to make judgments about people, or we're not supposed to differentiate between ideas." Then again, that has nothing to do with Jesus's words or...

    The Chilling Case Of Maureen Kelly, The Naked Hiker Who Vanished During A Spiritual Quest
    On June 9, 2013, 19-year-old Maureen Kelly went camping with her friends in southern Washington State. And that evening, a few hours before sunset, she told them she wanted to go on a spiritual quest. She stripped naked and left the Canyon Creek Campground wearing only a fanny pack.She told the group that she would be back by midnight, but she was never seen again. Although it had been a clear, warm day, that night, the temperatures dropped into the 40s. It was also the day after a new moon, and although she had packed a knife, compass, and matches, she had no flashlight.Skamania County Sheriffs DepartmentMaureen Kelly had been talking to her friends about taking a spiritual quest for months before she finally did it.The few leads that have been found have led to dead ends, and police have conflicting theories on what could have happened to her, and why. To this day, no trace of Maureen Kelly has ever been found.The Chilling Disappearance Of Maureen Kelly In Washington StateBorn on September 26, 1993, Maureen Leianuhea Kelly was raised by a single mother, Mapuana, in Vancouver, Washington. Known as Anu to her friends, she graduated from Lewis and Clark High School and was an aspiring singer and songwriter, often posting ukulele videos on YouTube.According to her friends, she had long talked about doing a spiritual quest in the woods. So when a group decided to go camping in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest near Mount St. Helens, she was eager to join.John Russell/FlickrMaureen Kelly disappeared in Gifford Pinchot National Forest in southern Washington State.So around 5 p.m. on June 9, 2013, Kelly stripped naked, tossed a knife, compass, and matches into a fanny pack, and walked out of the Canyon Creek Campground. No one tried to stop her. The day had been mild with highs in the 70s and sunny.The folks that she was with, they felt that this was something she needed to do, Skamania County Undersheriff Dave Cox told ABC News at the time.But as the night continued on, temperatures dropped to the 40s, cold enough for her to succumb to hypothermia without any clothes. And when Kelly still hadnt returned by midnight, her friends called the sheriffs department to report her missing.How The Naked Hiker Most Likely Met Her EndFamily PhotoMaureen Kelly was an aspiring singer and songwriter who often posted ukulele videos on YouTube.Investigators launched a search into Maureen Kellys disappearance on the morning of June 10.Several crews of investigators and volunteers were dispatched to look for Kelly, where they discovered a deep, unforgiving terrain filled with heavy timber and brush.After a day of searching, searchers found footprints that matched Kellys size and shape of her foot, and the trail led them to Forest Service 54 road. But when they hit the paved roads, her tracks suddenly stopped, and K9 units were unable to pick up a scent thereafter. Where she entered the creek is amazingly steep. Its called Canyon Creek Campground for a reason, said Sharon Ward of the Pacific Crest Search Dogs, a collective of volunteers dispatched to find Maureen Kelly. Its very, very steep. So how she got down there barefoot is a wonder. And how she came up out of the bottom is a wonder.KPTVThe Canyon Creek area of Gifford Pinchot National Forest where Maureen Kelly disappeared in June 2013.Whats more, Undersheriff Cox said, because theres so much underbrush, A searcher could literally walk right on top of somebody if theyre rolled under a log and never know it.Despite their best efforts, the search for Maureen Kelly turned up empty. The official search was suspended after just two days. It resumed briefly after her family and friends protested, but to no avail.To this day, police have not recovered Maureen Kelly or her remains. Nor did they find evidence of foul play or that she was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time. The most likely explanation, according to Cox, is that she succumbed to the elements the night of her initial disappearance, and most likely had her body scavenged by wildlife.But her family and friends have a different theory. According to her friend Yazmin, She may not want to be found.After learning about the strange disappearance of Maureen Kelly, read the bizarre story of Bryce Laspisa, who vanished without a trace while visiting his parents in California. Then, learn about the disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi, the 15-year-old daughter of a Vatican official who was suspected of being trafficked by the Catholic Church.The post The Chilling Case Of Maureen Kelly, The Naked Hiker Who Vanished During A Spiritual Quest appeared first on All That's Interesting.

    How Did Frida Kahlo Die? Why The Renowned Artists Death Remains Shrouded In Mystery
    Hulton Archive/Getty ImagesTo this day, questions remains about how Frida Kahlo died. Though Kahlos official cause of death was pulmonary embolism, some are convinced that the real cause was covered up.Frida Kahlos personal style and distinct artwork have made her one of the most recognizable artists of the 20th century. Kahlos art deftly blended her personal reflections and her deepest insecurities with a vivid and surreal imagination. But tragically, Frida Kahlo died young on July 13, 1954, at the age of just 47.Frida Kahlos cause of death was officially listed as pulmonary embolism, but no autopsy was performed and some suspect she died from an overdose. As with many famous figures, conspiracy theories around Frida Kahlos death quickly accumulated, fascinating the public almost as much as her life.This is the true story of how Frida Kahlo died.Inside Frida Kahlos Celebrated CareerGetty ImagesA young Frida Kahlo as she paints one of her earliest pieces.Frida Kahlo was born as Magdalena Carmen Frieda Kahlo y Caldern on July 6, 1907. She had a comfortable upbringing in Mexico as the third of four daughters.Her mother, Matilde Caldern, was a devout Catholic of mixed Indigenous and Spanish heritage. Her father, Guillermo Kahlo, was a German immigrant. Frida Kahlo shared an incredibly close bond with her father who readily encouraged her creativity including her penchant for photography and gender-bending fashion.At six, Frida Kahlo was diagnosed with polio. The disease withered her right leg and stunted her right foot, but she still enjoyed a fairly active life through sports, until a terrible accident that occurred when she was 18.A bus collided with a streetcar and Kahlo was impaled by a steel handrail during the crash. The rail went straight through her body near her hip resulting in horrendous physical injuries. Her spine and pelvis were shattered.In her grueling recovery, she was unable to sit up straight for months and was required to wear a stabilizing corset made out of hard plaster.I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone, because I am the person I know best.Frida KahloAlthough she was eventually able to walk again, the severe injuries Kahlo sustained impacted her for the rest of her life. The physical and emotional toll of the accident heavily influenced her art.Other influences in Kahlos work include her mothers native background evident in the Indigenous elements infused within her paintings and her turbulent marriage with Diego Rivera, the famed Mexican muralist who was 20 years her senior.Wallace Marly/Hulton Archive/Getty ImagesFrida Kahlos tumultuous relationship with the famous Mexican muralist Diego Rivera influenced much of her art.Their famous relationship was strained by their strong personalities, rampant infidelities, and issues of infertility possibly a result of Kahlos extreme injuries. During their marriage, Kahlo had affairs with Leon Trotsky, Josephine Baker, and Georgia OKeefe.The couple met in 1928 and were married the next year. Though the two divorced in 1939, they reconciled and remarried in 1940 and remained together until Frida Kahlos death.During her life, Frida Kahlo produced an estimated 200 paintings using her distinct style of natural surrealism. Among her most esteemed works are The Two Fridas (1939), Self-Portrait With Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird (1940), and Broken Column (1944), all of which are self-portraits.The only reason I go on living is to paint and to love, she once said. Despite her fragile health, Kahlo produced incredible artwork and continued her involvement in political causes up until her death.How Did Frida Kahlo Die?Getty ImagesI dont paint dreams or nightmares, I paint my own reality, Kahlo said of her unique surrealist style.In 1953, Kahlos leg was amputated from the knee down due to complications from one of her countless surgeries. Her health worsened as she aged and Kahlos heavy use of pain medication and drinking habits didnt help.Kahlos health declined rapidly during her last days. Hints of her fading vitality are reflected in her final painting Self-Portrait Inside a Sunflower (1954) which lacks the meticulous brushstrokes that typically distinguish her work.Yet Kahlo remained active up until the end. A few days before her death, Kahlo mustered the strength to attend a rally in her wheelchair to protest the CIA-backed coup dtat against the democratically-elected Guatemalan President Jacobo rbenz. Shortly after the rally, on July 13, 1954, Kahlo died at the age of 47.How did Frida Kahlo die? Although a pulmonary embolism was listed as the official cause of Frida Kahlos death, suspicions remain. The lack of a proper autopsy and a rushed cremation created intense skepticism surrounding her true cause of death.Some suspect the artist actually died of a suicide from overdosing. The suicide theory is further fueled by a diary entry she wrote in which she confessed frustration over her deteriorating health, punctuated with a drawing of a black angel. The entry was dated a few days before her death:They amputated my leg six months ago, they have given me centuries of torture and at moments I almost lost my reason. I keep on waiting to kill myself. I hope the exit is joyful and I hope never to come back.Those who believe that suicide was the cause of Frida Kahlos death point to the fact that Kahlo, known for her immense zest for life, was struggling at the end.She was unable to paint as beforeshe was not able to hold her paintbrush steady enough or long enough to finish it. So she destroyed her own creation, and with it she took her own life, wrote playwright Odalys Nanin.The mystery of the cause of Kahlos death inspired Nanin who, as a queer Mexican artist, feels a kinship with Kahlo to write the play Frida: Stroke of Passion which premiered in February 2020. Nanins show centers around Kahlos eccentric life and the uncertainty of her death.I explored her pain, fears, and lovers, her fervor for Diego Rivera and her paintings. But most of all I revealed the cover-up behind her death, Nanin wrote of the play.Still, such theories remain only suspicions.After Frida Kahlos Death, Her Artistic Legacy Lives OnDan Brinzac/New York Post Archives /(c) NYP Holdings, Inc. via Getty ImagesI recommend her to you, not as a husband but as an enthusiastic admirer of her work, acid and tender, hard as steel and delicate and fine as a butterflys wing, Diego Rivera once wrote to a friend.Frida Kahlos bold surrealism conveyed her deepest insecurities including her inability to conceive a child, the paralyzing pain from her disability, and her queerness and was considered groundbreaking work. Perhaps this is why her work continues to resonate after her mysterious death.Kahlos enchanting artwork has also found its way into 21st-century pop culture. Her distinct style and unibrow, which she intentionally kept ungroomed to challenge perceptions of femininity, adorn various commercial items from serving plates to pillowcases. The 2002 film Frida starring Mexican actress Salma Hayek was an international box office success.IMDBThe 2002 film Frida starring Salma Hayek is just one of the many ways the artists life and work have been immortalized.The adoration Frida Kahlos work receives today is something that many artists deeply desire themselves. But when does adoration turn into commodification?The obsession around Kahlos image has spawned discussions around the artists legacy which some argue has been spun into an egregious form of capitalism a system that Kahlo opposed during her life.How Frida Kahlo died remains a mystery. But its clear that while alive, she created an impressive body of work, so uniquely her own, that will never be forgotten.After this look at how Frida Kahlo died, hear Frida Kahlos voice in what is believed to be the only known audio recording of her speaking. Then, see captivating photos of Frida Kahlos life.The post How Did Frida Kahlo Die? Why The Renowned Artists Death Remains Shrouded In Mystery appeared first on All That's Interesting.
