I mean I know that they are a nationality, but I've met a few and they seem are tanned with almond-shaped eyes. They also have a different accent from other asian-accents, like Chinese etc. Can anyone explain their history to me please?

What is your opinion about magnifying the faults of others?

For those who responded to my previous question, I thought it would be clear that I am an evangelical atheist, attempting to show the absurdity and misogyny of the Bible,. Geesh!

1 Corinthians 14:34-35 - Let women be silent in church; they are not to be allowed to speak. They must submit to this regulation, as the Law itself instructs. If they have questions to ask they must ask their husbands at home, for there is something indecorous about a woman's speaking in church.

The time frame for filing charges? (statute of limitations)
Once one is an adult, is it possible to 'charge' abusive parents? Now that the law is officially 'recognizing' certain behaviors/treatments to be 'abusive'. . .

DO NOT READ THESE FOLLOWING EXAMPLES, IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED . . .
e.g. - beating one's feet with boards, forcing food gorging to vomiting (then eating same). . . these behaviors just landed a mother in jail for 2-6 (reported in the news yesterday) . . .

I am curious, because I had these (and many other grotesque) actions imposed on me, as an adopted child. . .

This was part of a IM i had received after i answered a question with the best of my knowledge regarding what someone thought was a contradiction(which many things can be seen that way) I understand people feel passionate about their beliefs but when you take that passion across a line which i believe this did then you gain nothing and no one learns anything. Judging one by another's actions is plan wrong no matter what faith/religion or lack of you believe in. You can teach and learn more by showing respect to what one believes (even if you don't agree) then you can by being flat out rude, inconsiderate, close-mined, and judgmental. I may not agree with what people believe but i do try my best to listen and respect their beliefs.

To the one who wrote this i am sorry you feel so harshly against someone you don't even know. I ask you forgive me for whatever wrong doing i did unknowingly against you. I am sorry.

Philemon 1: 6 says, "I pray that you may be ACTIVE in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ."

The word "active" comes from the greek word "energes" which means to be active, effectual, or powerful. This makes complete sense when you look at the word, becuse it is where the word "energy" comes from. So one could say that we should be actively & powerfully sharing our faith, and be effectual in doing so.

Have you been "active" in sharing your faith or do you not consider it a priority at all in your life? If so, are you being effectual? If not, what do you think you have to do to change?

Also, how active should we be? Should we ever give up?

I was added to the body of Christ about 5yrs.I attend worship service on a regular base and bible study/school.On two separate occasions i was approach by two different women in the church who commented to me my dress was too short ,another time my split was too high in their opinion. However, i do have mirrors ALL around my home and there is nothing wrong with my attire in my opinion neverless,i must let it be known these same two women are known in the church as troublemakers and in everyone's business.Both are over 50yrs of age, no husbands, no children,but they both seems to have something to say about what's wrong/right in everybody's life.I placed my membership at the church because it is 5minutes away and my worship is a MUST in my life.I will speak to to these women to inform them their comments are unwanted/unnecessary,even if they approve or disapprove keep your opinions about my attire to yourself or tell it to some one who cares about what U think of my outfits,AM I RUDE?

I am doing a research trying to connect the doors mentioned in Nehemias with the doors existing in Jerusalem today and the doors in the book of Revelation. But they are all different! Can you help me? Thank you!

You are aware, I hope, that the Bible forbids it. This in the New Testiment. So if you've been gabbing in church, hold your tongue. Just ask the hubby any questions that you have when you get home. Don't try the "out of context" argument here. It simply will not hold any water.

1 Corinthians 14:34-35 - Let women be silent in church; they are not to be allowed to speak. They must submit to this regulation, as the Law itself instructs. If they have questions to ask they must ask their husbands at home, for there is something indecorous about a woman's speaking in church.

when every time i wanna address a law your lame excuse is always "oh that's from the old testament"
so what exactly is in your SO CALLED christian religion??? NO LAWS???
weired because as far as i know Jesus said that he didnt come to abolish the laws but to FULFILL them.

Matt 5:17-18 a little bit closer: "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished."

is this NOT clear to most of the christians of today? do they think that they should live with NO laws??

no wonder why 90% of you are hypocites. sorry but it's a FACT.
