Like I read an American name Robert Fitzwald Gordon & many similar ones. Do they alter there names when they reach adolescence or its there parents who keep so complex names. Even I heard that many celebrities, like Madonna's original name is so different.
In other cultures, people usually prefer to use there ancestral surname. But I have come across americans who don't use even the surnames. I am very curious to know about this practise. Thanks

"In some private homes we find people who work with wool and rags, and cobblers, that is, the least cultured and most ignorant kind. Before the head of the household, they dare not utter a word. But as soon as they can take the children aside or some women who are as ignorant as they are, they speak wonders....If you really wish to know the truth, leave your teachers and your father, and go with the women and the children to the women's quarters, or to the cobbler's shop, or to the tannery, and there you will learn the perfect life. It is thus that these Christians find those who will believe them."
-- Celsus, a Roman Pagan intellectual.

This comes from his refutation of Christianity. But I must be a real idiot myself, because to me, it sounds like a compliment.

How do you take it? Explain.

Thanks.

I feel this is similar to being racist. When i here black guys say that they only date light skinned girls, its very disturbing, because its almost like saying they prefer white girls. and its worst because we are the same race

Even if such a place exists how on Earth could anyone honestly know if they really deserve to get there or will get there?For all anyone knows, Heaven is the place that only the top 100 people of all time get to go to.The rest just get to go to Mr. Rogers Neighborhood for all time.

And, I know, the Bible quotes are going to start flowing or at least the sentences such as, "So and so died so that I could go somewhere" or "if I do what I sm suppose to do and believe the right God then I get to go".But all of this just sounds even more like arrogant presumption.Agreed?

If we evolved we would have in museums bones of all these creatures between species.

There are apes on earth today, and there are humans. Why didnt any of the animals in between survive? why didnt any of them move location and therefore stop evolving and be alive today? what are the odds that every single one that started evolving ended up as a human.

How can they eye have evolved? in stages? what use would it have been?

again, we have dinosaur bones, where are the bones of these evolved creatures, there should be millions everywhere for all the millions of creatures that would have evolved.

What is the typical job of an Auxiliary Bishop serving under an Archdiocese? It seems more priests are Vicar Generals than Bishops, so do they do other administration?

And can they say mass in the Cathedral? What can they do? I read the Wiki entries.

Do they actually ever perform administrative functions, what is their daily role within the archdiocese or diocese they serve in? They say mass, do priestly ordinations, etc. I understand. What else do they do on a regular basis, how do they assist?

INDIA, 11 May 2000 (Newsroom) – Six Christian missionaries participating in a gospel campaign called "Love Ahmedabad" were beaten so savagely in the state of Gujarat last week that one of the men may lose his arms and legs.

Members of the Hyderabad-based Operation Mobilization (OM) were distributing Bibles and religious tracts in Ahmedabad, about five miles from Gandhinagar, the capital of Gujarat, the afternoon of May 5 when they were attacked by members of the Hindu extremist groups Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP). Operation Mobilization ships tons of Christian literature around the country. The assailants also burned copies of the Bible and tracts.

======================
Christian missionaries beaten in public for 'converting' Hindus

Television channels showed Hindu activists kicking and punching the two young priests while dragging them through Maharashtra's Kolhapur town.

News footage showed an activist knee one priest in the groin, making him double up in pain. Another kicked the missionary in the head. The crowd accused the priests of forcibly converting poor Hindus, and handed them over to police.

Since they are not Muslim we don’t consider this in any way shape or form to be terrorism…..
