“Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of Creation), before We clove them asunder? And We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe”? (21:30 Qura’n).

I bought some beads that had Chinese writing on them and I would like to find out what they say. I've always wanted to know what some of the Asian stuff says but never had a way of asking anyone. I'm 90% sure this is Chinese charters so if anyone could look at the links below and tell me what they say I'd be eternally grateful!

It could be personality wise or something dealing with your appearance. I know it is a frequently asked question, but I would like to know why.

Most of the time we think of us and whats good for us, at the time of our action. But we forget that the actions we do, effect others. And that the actions we do, or say ,mite hurt others. If we would just think before we acted.............

PS. first time, it was fun. hehe :)

It seems more believable to me that Jesus was simply a charismatic leader whose stories were continually exaggerated until the point of seeming god-like. Eventually, out of these stories grew an entire mythology to give people a way to explain the unexplainable and to try and convince people that they are accountable for their actions. Doesn't this seem like a more likely explanation then the son of god was on earth and then disappeared along with any evidence of the existence of god? Note: I do actually believe in god (in some form) because there is no real explanation for why there is something vs. nothing, but the whole literal mythologies (ie. the Bible, the Koran, etc.) around religion seem completely fabricated and intended more to teach moral lessons and philosophies then describe actual events. This same logic can be applied to the formation of basically any religion.

I have been sponsoring him & his family for about a year now, and would like some ideas on things they might like to hear about. Is it rude to tell him about my new house, since they don't have those kind of luxuries??

And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. - James 5:15-16

As most people know the minimum drinking age in America is 21. Problems related to drinking among the under twenty-one age group are actually worse here than in European countries that have no age limit imposed on drinking.
In France a boy can have wine with his parents and thinks nothing of it, in America the boy would feel privileged to get to consume alcohol and from that stems the idea of it being cool. On top of that there is the sense of being rebellious by drinking underage that most teens experience.
It's clear that the ban on underage drinking is ineffective, but to instantly remove the ban could have disastrous instant effects if mass numbers of young people go for the bottle.
So how do we find a happy medium that results in a lower number of alcohol related incidences among younger people while getting rid of a the flawed prohibition system the U.S. has tried for so long?

Long detailed answers would be much appreciated!
Thanks = )
