Christians, you accepted a new Testament and give it authority over the Old Testament. Mormons are not different. Why not accept the LDS Testament?

I'm trying to find a suitable Chinese female name for a character in one of my scripts. (for a movie that I hope to direct someday) I have settled on either Jun or Zhu. I looked these names up on "baby names" websites. According to one, "Jun" means truth. According to another website, "Zhu" means "bamboo." Yet another website says that "Zhu" means "pearl." (Me personally, I'm leaning on 'Zhu' for 'bamboo')
So I'm a little confused here. Could anyone clarify all the possible meanings of Zhu and Jun and if possible, include the Chinese character with each? And feel free to tell me which you think (Jun or Zhu) would sound best to Chinese AND Americans. Thanks.
(Yes, Mandarian names, if that makes any difference. Unless, by any chance, you know what Jun/Zhu means in the Xiang dialect, because this character is Hunanese.)

Perhaps a descendant of Q Victoria, and/or a Danish prince? I read about him in a hardback [1970s?] on minor royalty. When his wife complained to him about lack of money and suggested he write to the Queen, his full reply was "Offergottseck, Lilibet has her own family and her own worries"

What influences have you experienced, as role models, that helped set the course of your life? What lessons still stay with you?

why you do not believe in Mohammed? Muslims are like u...pray for only one God Allah with no partners. And Jesus has not said that he is the last Messenger.indeed, he said that a Messenger will come after him called Ahmed (Mohammed Is called also Ahmed in arabic).Mohammed, be pray upon him, has said that he was the last profet send to People. and that seems true after 1400 years since he was sent.

Are you litterally born of God & have His DNA within you?

1 John 3:9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, & he can't keep on sinning because he has been born of God.

Peter 1:23 For you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is through the living and abiding word of God.

spirituality is based on no books no savior and not even based on repenting its based soley on being one with the creator god and knowing all things in one self in ones life time. spirituality is also based on a way of life and not based on worship and prayer.

christianity is based on a book and based on a savior and repenting for crimes that one may never have commited to start with. christianity is based on dividation of person and family. it is also based on a relationship with jesus. (i am sure jesus doesnt feel the same about it either)

but heres the deal if christians really want to be spiritual then remove the books and the savior complex and listen to your own hearts and open your eyes to the world around you.

In 5th grade, it was some goofy, raunchy joke that had the chorus, "Rubber Mountains!" Yeah, we were pretty unbearable kids.....

My husband's cousin (female, VERY married, has a kid...) has been making comments about how she thinks I'm sexy, sex dreams she's had about me, and has admitted to me that she had an extramarital affair with one other girl already. She hasn't said whether she's lesbian or bi, and i don't really care, but her comments seem to come out of nowhere. I love her and she's a great friend, but I'm very committed to my marriage and i love my husband, faults and all, and i'll be honest, i'm just not into girls. I've told her this and she laughed like it didn't matter and she keeps on making her comments, etc... How do I get her to back off without losing her as a friend or causing controversy in my husband's family?

Do the past actions of Christians have any effect on Christians today, good or bad? Should they? How about Muslims, Neo-nazis, Native Americans etc... should they have any association with others in the same "group" past or present?

Every so often the KKK or neo-Nazis show up in town, to stage a rally. The question among many cultural and civic groups is, is whether it's better to leave them alone to their pathetic selves, or to get a large counter-demonstration put together to shout them down?

Or does it have to be chocolate for you to believe, or perform miracles, or be raised from the dead according to a book written 2000 years ago, no chance they could be - i dont know - lieing is there.

i find it more interesting to see what people are about as they answer questions... to see where their loyalies lie.
it's just when someone has like 2000+ answers, that it's a little annoying to have to spend the time to hit a couple pages at a time into their question/answer history.
