About 6 months ago, I got a tattoo on my left shoulder in Arabic, which translates to "justice." I'm taking Arabic in college, and I'm going to start Mandarin Chinese and Japanese in my upcoming semester.

I wanted to get either the Japense or Mandarin Chinese character for "truth" on my right shoulder, to make the pair truth and justice. I know there are a few different characters, but I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion as to which would be most fitting for my situation.

Thanks in advance.

What does the word reveal. Please provide some scriptural references.. Not just what you have been told by your pastors or parents etc.

Why is that women are considered sluts (negative) when they sleep around with men but men are considered pimps or something powerful (positive) when they sleep around with women???

They make me look really child like and I dont want to look child like any more. Today's fathers day and I came to the shocking realization that I am a father. I mean, I knew it before but today it really sank in. Anyways, I think I need to look like someones dad but I like my hair. So, should I cut it and any suggestions on the type of hair cut I should get?

Where does this saying come from "Forgive them for they do not know" and does it mean God will forgive the people that never heard the gospel?

...for contempt of religion? Kind of like the LaVeyan church of Satan (they don't really believe in Satan but still us the symbol)
After all there is no universally known symbol for Atheism and it's nice to wear your social regalia from time to time so people know where you stand on the social spectrum.

It's about 1/2 in. on the back of the the head, at the nape of the neck. I suppose it could be an "h" depending on how it is looked at.

Several times I've come across references to a boddhisativa or deva called MYOKEN in Japanese Buddhism.

What is she/ he called by Chinese or Tibetan or other Buddhists? Does this entity have a sanskrit name?

I have googled and wikie'd this and only have mere scraps of info and some one stole Flammarions' Buddhist Iconography from our library!

Any other Buddhist scholars here?

A couple or sites and books suggested another name in chinese might be miao - lo ?

How has it solved through rationalization and discourse the fundamental issues related to human governance and development? In spite of its undeniable advances in medicine, better food, better education, better living conditions since early in the 20th century, how has the view that people are essentially self-interested actors in matters pertaining to their economic well-being; and that the building of just and prosperous societies can be ensured by one or another schemes of what is described as modernization played out? Far from narrowing the gap between the well-being of the small segment of the human family who enjoy the benefits of modernity and the condition of the vast populations mired in hopeless want, the collective effort that began with such high hopes has seen the gap widen into an abyss. Disillusionment and utter hopelessness reign in the hearts of the majority of the world’s people. Where are the promised benefits?

Please stick to the topic and avoid tangents.

everytime I see or hear a black person say, I dont talk black because I talk proper (which is ironic because it is impossible to "talk proper;" one "talks properly.")

Talking white and talking properly are not one in the same.

George Bush Talks white and he can barely comeplete a sentence.

It seems that I have been blocked by him since I am suddenly unable to view or answer his questions. This is all so interesting, since he is supposedly trying his best to straighten out all the anti-catholics here and bringing them back to the fold of the Roman Catholic Church.

Why is he doing that? Is he fearful of my answers? Why does he not allow me to reply to his questions? Well, he probably will boost his ego by saying that my answers are not worth reading or responding to. But each answer should be tested in the marketplace of ideas, and not apriori censored from consideration.
