I recently read a question from a woman who is in a marriage that any sane person would abandon. She only stays married to her husband because God says that divorce is sinful. Her husband used to hit her and only stopped because he was sent to jail for it. He doesn’t care for their daughter at all. When she is working and he is supposed to be watching the child, he doesn’t feed her and doesn’t change her diaper. He calls her (the wife) worthless, even though she is the main breadwinner of the family. How can anyone believe in a god that would make this woman believe that she should stay with a man like this?

I've noticed on a lot of my questions and answers that people seem to be from all around the globe. I wanted people to tell me where they are from, and what they like about where they live. Me? I live in Portland, OR, USA. I love the mountains and coast being so close. I love the rain and everything being so green. I want to travel someday, but for now I'll live through you!

I've often heard that hadiths shouldn't be taken so seriously because of some of the fallacies mentioned in it and sorry to say, some things that just sound really wierd.

i.e. Sun setting in mud puddle.
i.e. Satan peeing in your ear when you fall asleep in prayer

If that is so, why not just ban them all together?

It seems like they are still quoted a good bit. Why? What benefit can be gotten from them?

and not what they look like. I got with this guy and I thought he was cute but when I go around to see him, the first thing I think of when I see him is....gross...and then I try to get past it. do you think I will just get used to it. What is wrong with going with somebody that your physically attracted to?

When I lived in Asia back in the 70's and 80's, I had a lot of time spent with Japanese friends. WWII being one of my favorite subjects, I tried to converse with people my own age about it. They seemed to know almost nothing at all. Their schoolbooks seemed to only have a half page that mentioned Pearl Harbor and the Japanese victory then fast forwarded to Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Japanese "retirement" from the war. No mention of the atrocities, the alliance with Hitler the madman or the fact that they had really been fighting the war since 1894, stirring up trouble in China. When they defeated the Russians in 1905, attacking before they declaired war (Hmmm), they annexed Korea shortly thereafter. They just kept gnawing away at China & building up island bastions until we began to notice in 33. They drummed up reasons for an out-and-out war by 37 and were absolutely merciless about it until we finally stopped them cold in 1945. Yet a modern Japanese seems to know nothing. Why?

In my german class, we are making presentations on technology today; and I don't know what to do! I've decided on two things: Graphic tablett and GPS navigator.
The only glitch is that there is no history on GPS navigator at all! Could someone please tell me a bit about GPS navigators, or suggest some technologies I could make my presentation on?

Thanks!
