Here I am going to list some sentences which are really simple but deffer from each other in a way.
1.He is the Iraqi ambassador to India.
2.He is the Iraqi ambassador in India.
3.He is the Iraqi ambassador for India.
4.He is the Iraqi ambassador of India.
Actually,the original meaning trys to discribe the Iraqi ambassador set for India,working in India.
So what do you think is the accurate way of presenting that meaning amongst the four sentences above?
And how does each of the four sentences differ from each other?I mean even the slight differences .
Hope you help with this.
Thank you.

Why do Koreans and Blacks in America not get along? I know it had something to do with the race riots but I really don't understand. I live on the east coast and where i live there is a high korean population and the blacks and koreans have very good relations so I was suprised to find out blacks and koreans didn't have good relations.

Would it be the Bible or the Dharma?

Personally I would pick the Dharma.

I know "cowboy" is a typical American English word. But why "cowboy" not "bullboy"? Anyway I can't imagine boys in the American west just milking cows everyday. Maybe "bullboy" is a more appropriate word.

Can you imagine what a ridiculous effort it would have taken for it all to be a scam? over 5000 years of people keeping things on the hush-hush just to make YOU into a believer. WOW!

The odds of all those prophets writing all those books because thousands of years later theres gonna be a guy to come and fulfill it all (and he will die a horrible death for it) just to convince a few people into believeing a lie and then we'll start a church so my great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandson can go to pastor school and maybe be rich!!

The odds of that without any evidence of it being a farce is pretty bad, in case you wondered!

Just My opinion! But please ponder it, instead of disregard it.

SO...only if you pondered this..IS it a scam? Are you EVER wrong? thanks

1:11 And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit-trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth: and it was so. 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after their kind: and God saw that it was good. 1:13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
Does this mean it's okay with God to smoke weed?I mean it says he saw it was good ,not that every plant was good EXCEPT weed.

ONE says we all believe in what we see.

OTHER says we all believe in God (we are convinced at some point in life about presence of God)

Which of the two is more justified for a practical and experienceful life

Is this about Christians celebrating their heritage and demonstrating that America was based on Biblical ideas. Or is it perhaps a way to exploit historical amnesia and encourage voters to embrace not just ultra-right-wing Evangelical Christian ideas, but to embrace it as an identity indistinguishable from American?

If a complete stranger walked up to you and offered to dream cast for you to have a peaceful night's sleep, would you accept the offer?

(Dream Casting is an ancient practice. Practitioners can create a dreaming state for people who cannot sleep because of bad dreams or insomnia.
It is also a means of dream interpretation.)

First god would have to tell people to write it. That would be funny. Theres John sitting there and hears a voice out of nowhere "Joooohhhnnn, i need you to write a book for me."
John responds- " WHO JUST SAID THAT?"
God- "It was me God"
John- "Holy crap you scared me, I though I had a tumor"
God- "Ok grab a pencil and paper..... In the beginning there was there was the heaven and the earth
John- "ok it began with the heaven and .....
God- "no no no- in the beginning, there was the heaven and the earth"
John- "oh ok, so how long is this book?" lol

Its just as funny as that mormon guy who wrote the book of mormon by listening to his talking hat

If a guy came up to you with slacks and a nice button down shirt, what would you first think of him? he could be a total prat, but what's your first opinion? If a guy came up to you wearing a really big shirt, and jeans so low you can almost see all of his boders, basically looking ghetto, what would you first think of him? he could be a total prat too. who would you be more comfortable with, and why?
