1. Crucifixion probably began in Persia in the 7th century BC. Alexander the Great used it throughout his campaigns. The Romans adopted it for slaves, rebels and criminals who were not Roman citizens (except for treason).

2. Strong’s word # 4716, the Greek “stauros,” means either pole or cross. But the cross was the device so widely used for centuries before the time of Christ, as well as in Roman times.

So why do JW insist that it’s important to believe that Christ died on a pole, not a cross? And why is the distinction so important to their religion?

(I do understand their argument about bowing down to crosses, etc., but that’s an entirely different issue than how Christ died.)

The hard drives on the server need to be defragged real bad but I don't want to bring the network to a standstill while I'm running disk defrag. Windows 2000 is the OS so I don't have the ability to set a tme for it to automatically start.

I'm not sure if I should take 90 West to 95 and take 95 south all the way to NYC, or if I should take 90 West to 84, then take 84 down to 91, and 91 to 95. The latter route looks like it is a bit straighter, but it may not be faster.

Sometimes i feel i may be overreacting, but correct me if i'm wrong. Why do i feel as if our relationship revolves around his son? He has a five year old and a sixteen year old daughter. He grew apart from his daughter because - to cut the long story short, he was young when they had her, they both (him/baby'smom) gave up custody to the bbymom's parents. So they grew apart. However, they're now trying to rebuild their relationship.But my major concern is, my fiance's almost obsession with his son. I love the kid - he's adorable, and i get on swell with him. But its just that the kid removed from the equation, my fiance changes and becomes disinterested in doing stuff together. I may be reading the signals wrong, but it seems scarry at times. Left alone just the two of us, he spends 95% of his time on his laptop, suggestions to do outdoor things or any other fun stuff is met with, i'm not feeling well or i'm too tired. He has slight sleep apnea, i understand but can't he at least try?

This is a rephrasing of a question I have already asked, as that one is running out of time and I still need more data. Just tell me what you think a soul is. If you think it is what is in a book, say which book, preferably with citation(as to the chapter or verse). If you have your own beleifs as to what it is, tell me about it. If you think it doesn't exist, put that down to. Thank you.

i have been told i have a abnormally large penis. it is around 13in. i have had plenty of girls just get up and leave after seeing it. i have had sex with only one girl because of this. i have been thinking about a penis reduction for the longest time. this has become a curse in my life and not a gift as most guys believe. i was wondering if there is anyone that knows about these type of surgeries. i open to hearing success and horror stories. thanks for the help

Are you proud to be straight? Straight sexual orientation people are not proud to be straight but gay people are often proud to be gay and it's because gay people fought to get a freedom, were discriminated against. Can I say the same thing when I talk about racism? White people more say "who cares about rare" (at least my friends who are Whites less care about racism) but is that because they don't have to care about it because they have never been taken away their freedom like a straight people?

I don't want to offend anyone but just want to know the truth.

I don't mean this to be sarcastic or insulting. I have noticed through my own expierences that most (not all, but almost) "Saved" Christians have been saved after some sort of tragedy, or failure or crisis in their life. Which I think is fantastic, please don't get me wrong, If Religion has one redeeming quality, it is, weather or not the religion is true, it does give people a foothold to recovery. My issue is that many of the "SAved people" I know dont take any resposibilty for their choices that put them in a situation to need be saved. Any or all of the people who have been affected by the person previous to being saved end up being targets for the self ritoue retoric that comes from the culprit being saved. I guess Im asking does being saved get you out of any accountabilty to the people you have hurt or damaged prior to being saved. Thats The feeling I get. This is not to agitae only to understand.

I live in Michigan and I have been pulled over once before and the officer asked to search the car, we were all perfectly sober and everything. Does the officer have any ability to search the car without my consent? What are my rights in Michigan if I get pulled over because most police just try to intimadate you to admitting things they have no idea about to begin with.
