To you linguists what language family do you think each one belongs too. I dont think any of them belong to Sino-Tibetan, and I dont see how people think Korean and Japanese can be Austronesian while Vietnam is closer to Austronesian languages, and I also think Vietnam is more cculturally related to Austronesian than Korea or Japan, because I read that Korea is considered Austronesian because they think people came from eggs, like Austronesians, well the Vietnamese did too, so what language family do you think each one comes from

beliefs are just that. BELIEFS.

if someone believes something that makes them feel good/complete, then who are we to put them down for it?

i don't care if you worship God. i don't care if you worship nobody. i don't care if you worship a yellow-spotted venezualean tree frog. if it makes you happy, i'm not going to copy and paste some 1-million world article telling you that venezualean tree frogs are false creatures.

what's the point? it is not a competition or anything. just let people live, and butt out of their lives. do you agree?

A lot of poeple I've talked to say never to start that because you'll have a hard time with trasitioning them back to sleeping by themselves. My baby has been sleeping in the same bed as us since he was born and he's 9 months now. Almost everyone I've talked to said they did the same thing and there was no problem getting them to sleep by themselves. Who is against it, and why? Who is for it, and why?

I have a souvenir pocket knife, but I want to dull the blade, so it can't be dangerous. I don't have any interest in it ever being used as a knife. Any suggestions on how to do that? Would removing the blade and just keeping the commemorative casing be possible? Thank you for any help you can provide.

I am writing an essay about gun control, and I am stuck as to where to begin.

I am writing about how we don't need to change the gun control laws we have now, and how the laws we have now don't even work.

Please help!!

Does anyone know the name of the private train service in the US that uses older train tracks that haven't been used in years? It is not affiliated with Amtrak and I believe it only travels out west.

Or unwise?

And we have 3 children, whom I have cared for their entire lives, because I chose to stay home. Was that wise of him to let me make that decision or unwise because I was thinking of that for myself?

My daughter has a dentist appt. next week. We just found out that she is allergic to novacaine. She will need some work done fairly soon and was wondering what other alternative the dentist has to numb the area up?

Harley Davidson died and went to Heaven, and was boasting to God how he'd created the best Motor Bike in the world. God disagreed saying BMW's were a better designed bike! Harley said what do you know about design you created woman and look at the problems we have with them! AHEM ! says God " I think you'll find a lot more men are riding my creation than yours"!!!!!!

And just because there are so many, let's say from 2000 until present day.

Without a doubt I'll have to say "Flushed Away" is my favorite.
I could easily watch it without my four year old.
The Incredibles is a close second.

You?

Also I've asked the opposite end of this question before [ your least favorite, like fingers down a chalk board children's movie/tv show] and got some very heartfelt answers. Feel free to include those as well!

what would you do if the person you are with came to a realization that there is no god? would you try to convert him/her back if he/she was still a good person and didn't try to convert you? if so, what would you say to them? or would you just leave them and find someone else with your beliefs?
