"Learn taciturnity and let that be your motto!"
Is this something you practice,or do you have a counter-motto?

I just read a question asking which race has it the hardest and a lot answers were from white people saying white people have had it the hardest. Okay, I must be missing something because I'm white and I've never really had any struggles or have had to deal with anything hard, I'm not even rich, I'm middle class. A lot of the answers were saying that white people get called racist a lot. Well that's never happened to me and if you do get called a racist you probably are and just don't know it. I guess my point is, I don't think white people have the right to complain having it the hardest, because it's not true, we don't have it the hardest. I know my story isn't the same as everyone else's but I'm talking about white people in general.

Here's the question that was asked:

I've been living in the US for about 3 years (I started high school here in the beginning of my sophomore year) and someone once told me that the Theory of Evolution is not taught in US schools. Is it true though? & if it is indeed true, why is it?

Jesus made hell-as the bible says for "satan who comes to decieve, destroy and kill."and gave us the power to believe in his salvation and more abundant life (John 3 and 10th chapters-ye must repent and be born again to see the kingdom of heaven."

-and millions have-believed-so they can go to heaven and have the more abundant life on earth (John 10 vs 10) to have -the joy and peace-

"There is no other name under heaven given amongst people, whereby we must be saved."

hell is described in the bible-Jesus made it he knows what it is like there-Revelation 19-22nd chapters gnashin teeth forever and the joy of heaven described too

the day i decided as a Jew to believe Jesus -i prayed and did as he said ---"Behold i stand at hour life door and knock, if you hear my voice and let me in to deliver from sin, i will come in and become their friend." Revelation 3 vs 19&20

so i prayed after swiming-"Jesus im sorry for my sins, i dont want to go to hell forever, help me-be myFriend

Why doe "true believers" find atheists so threatening? Why are they threatened by the fact there are happy, normal, successful, MORAL, and positive people out there who don't believe in their god? Why do they get so defensive when we try to explain why we are not believers?

We've been makin toast of thousands and thousands of radical Muslims over there. So if each one of them gets all these virgins where in the world is God finding all these virgins to give them? And how about a woman martyr? Does she get a bunch of virgins too? Or is that just for the guys. I guess God will give a woman martyr brand new washing machines to do all the laundry for the guys with all the virgins.

As a child, I have always been interested in my family tree. I was the grandchild that spent the most time with my maternal grandmother, had the most overnight visits with her and bonded with her the most. I fondly recall working with her for hours drawing out family trees from her memories, complete with genetic information such as eye colors, hair colors, etc. I don't recall if these charts we drew up had all the birth dates and decedent dates on them or not, but the worst of it is that other relatives took the charts when she passed and won't admit they have them so they won't even share copies of my childhood endeavors.

On my fathers side of the family I have contributed to an ongoing project and have just received an update from my cousin. I have names, sex, birthdate and locations, marriage dates, and sometimes date of death for a long list of relatives reaching back to the parents of one ancestor born in 1884. I'm Jewish. What info is needed for LDS temple work?
