With That being said, whats your Idea. With hispanics having the highest growing rate in the US.. right now. You would think they would know how to cater to their own people but not being able to start a business..
If you had the start up money what woudl you do?

The US Constitution gives us all freedom of religion...so why are we now being denied this right. A very few people find it offensive to see GOD anywhere...well many people left the other hemisphere due to religious persecution...so what now we too will be persecuted for displaying GOD in our lives...So let us who do want GOD displayed let it be so: put the sign of GOD for you on your car, front door, windows, or wherever...our forefathers faught for it and our service men are fighting for our freedoms as we sit at home in peace...so wave GOD to your hearts content...do you agree?

2 Nephi 5:21 says,

"And he had caused the cursing to come upon them, yea, even a sore cursing, because of their iniquity. For behold, they had hardened their hearts against him, and they had become like unto a flint; wherefore, as they were white, and exceedingly fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them."

I'll start off by saying I'm a 16 year old male. I haven't been diagnosed with depression or anxiety but I wouldn't doubt that I have it. I have never witnessed any death and have never seen a corpse in person. I'm certain I'm not a necrophile but I do get a strange thrill when I see real pictures of dead people. Just the thought of death fascinates me. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with the feeling of imminent death (I'm guessing those might be panic attacks). I don't think I'm clinically psychopathic but I wouldn't know if I'm crazy. I know there are millions of other people like me because there are thousands of death/black metal bands out there (that I really enjoy). What would cause this obsession?

2007-11-09 09:03:27 · 20 answers · asked by Joe 6 in Polls & Surveys

The Church accompanies its faithful from even before birth, through all the steps of life to death and beyond, with its prayers, rites, sacraments, preaching, teaching, and its love, faith and hope. All of life, and even death itself, are drawn into the realm of the life of the Church. Death is seen as evil in itself, and symbolic of all those forces which oppose God-given life and its fulfillment. Salvation and redemption are normally understood in Eastern Christianity in terms of sharing in Jesus Christ's victory over death, sin and evil through His crucifixion and His resurrection. The Orthodox Church has a very strong pro-life stand which in part expresses itself in opposition to doctrinaire advocacy of euthanasia.

Euthanasia is understood to be the view or practice which holds that a person has the right, and even the moral obligation, to end his or her life when it is considered to be - for whatever subjectively accepted reason "not worth living." Euthanasia advocates nearly always include in this assertion the right and duty of others, including medical personnel, to assist the person in fulfilling this purpose. Needless to say, the Orthodox Church rejects such a view, seeing such behavior as a form of suicide on the part of the individual, and a form of murder on a part of others who assist in this practice, both of which are seen as sins.

Thus the Orthodox Church, in the words of 1976 Christmas encyclical of former Archbishop Iakovos, considers "euthanasia and abortion, along with homosexuality ... a ... moral alienation." Modern medical practice, however, has affected another part of the Church's perspective. The Church does not expect that excessive and heroic means must be used at all costs to prolong dying, as has now become possible through technical medical advances. As current Orthodox theology expresses it:

"The Church distinguishes between euthanasia and the withholding of extraordinary means to prolong life. It affirms the sanctity of human life and man's God-given responsibility to preserve life. But it rejects an attitude which disregards the inevitability of physical death."

This means that the Church may even pray that terminally ill persons die, without insisting that they be subjected to unnecessary and extraordinary medical efforts. At the same time, the Church rejects as morally wrong any willed action on the part of an individual to cause his or her own death or the death of another, when it otherwise would not occur.

It seems to me that most religions - when you strip them of all the stuff that we imperfect beings have added - have the same basic truth. Surely If we could get rid of all the historical nonsense and social rules that constitute religion, and strip it back to a simple spirituality we'd all get along together with love?

An unknown compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion analysis of the compound gives mass percents of 31.57% C and 5.30% H. The molar mass is determined by measuring the freezing point depression of an aqueous solution. A freezing point of -5.20°C is recorded for a solution made by dissolving 10.56 g of the compound in 25.0 g water. Determine the empirical formula, molar mass, and molecular formula of the compound. Assume that the compound is a nonelectrolyte.

The place I bought it at just told me that I should replace my chain soon when I brought it in for a 60 day tune-up. As you could guess, I bought the bike not to long ago, and since then I've put around 200 miles on it. Everywhere I've found online suggests replacing your chain ever 200 miles, so changing it already seems premature. But that he told me it is getting bad has me a bit paranoid: Is something I'm doing putting unnecessary stress on it? Is something wrong with my cassette already that has him worried? Or is _he_ the one being paranoid?

I maintain my bike pretty well and I'm _pretty_ knowledgeable. But in the simplest terms, how do I know when my chain is getting bad?
