My Newest aphabet , what do you think of it? It consists of only numbers.
Traditional:
A = 111
E = 222
I/Y = 333
O = 444
U = 555
B/P = 6
T/D = 7
V/F = 8
H/W = 9
Sh/Ch/J = 66
G/K/X/Q = 77
M/N = 88
L/R = 99
Z/S = 10
The new simplified version:
A = 1^3
E = 2^3
I/Y = 3^3
O = 4^3
U = 5^3
B/P = 6
T/D = 7
V/F = 8
H/W = 9
Sh/Ch/J = 6^2
G/K/X/Q = 7^2
M/N = 8^2
L/R = 9^2
Z/S = 10

It seems dome disbelievers won't take alternative to their answers no matter how solid the evidence or open mided they claim. So I thought I would put up a proof one or two at a time ans see if you can ( with documentation disprove it all. So here is the beginning Dr James Strange( University of South Florida)has noted that after the fall of Jerusalem in Ad ( or CE) 70 priests were no longer needed in the temple so they were sent out to various places Arcahaeologists have found an Aramaic list describing the 24 "courses or families of priests and where they were relocated. One of those families were registered as being to the city of Nazareth. This was a city of apprix 60 acres with a population of about 480 people. I will be attempting to give more proofs later. Do you have the documentation to disagree or will you concede this one?

Genesis1:16 "And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also."
The greater light=the sun
The lesser light=the moon
"God CREATED TWO great LIGHTS"
This verse clearly indicates that God created the moon with its own light! This cleary indicates that people in the past believed that the moon shines on its own, and to no surprise the author also thought so when he made the story up! How could christians still believe in such a fairy tale despite this glaring error??!!

Xtian: When we go to heaven we won't sin anymore.
Me: You mean there is no sin in heaven?
Xtian: Yes
Me: Satan and his angels sinned in heaven by jealousy of God
Xtian: Humans are not the same
Me: If you still sin right now why would you stop sinning in heaven?
Xtian: We will be granted a new body to replace this carnal body so we won't sin in heaven.
Me: But with free will you still can sin.
Xtian: Not with our enlightened body, and we will have God beside us, so there is no reason to sin.
Me: A perfect body with God beside you sounds just like Adam and Eve. They were perfect humans with free will, just
the way you will be in heaven, and yet they sinned.
Xtian: ....er...
Me: There will be sin in heaven because angels sinned and
the perfect body you will posses is no different from Adam and Eve's which sinned. The fact is that with free will you will have the tendency to sin, even with God beside, Like Adam had God beside. The Garden of Eden could be compared to heaven.

I have read so many question regarding Asian women and one girl just wrote about her jealousies of them. Most of the replys were "because Asian women are submissive" or "men don't want American women anymore." Has anyone ever thought about Asian women that ARE Americans? I have a couple friends who are Asian American..and they act exactly as an American would. American does NOT equal white..and it's a pity to see that many people still think that. I am wondering why when someone says "Asian woman" people automatically assume the Asian isn't American...

Do you think they should knock it off because it was not the way of the Sunnah, nor is it humane?
What do you think based on this?

My roomate has a part time job at a super market. Her car is in the shop, so I have been taking her back and forth to work. Today when she got off, we needed to pick up some things so we went shopping in her store. She still has her uniform on and we are walking around the store shopping and talking. This guy walks up asks where the flour was, he didnt say excuse me or anything. He just cut right in the middle of our conversation, so she told him what aisle and we went on with our conversation. Then he got mad and yelled well arent you supposed to take me to it, instead of running your mouth with her. When she told him that the reason she didnt take him to it was because she was not working he just said oh and walked away. No apology or anything. Is it employees job to cater to customers when they are a customer themselves? I mean he wouldnt have stopped to ask me a question like that, why her when she was a customer to?

I believe that every person on this earth should be treated equally. I know that this isn't realistic.
I'm scared to say this and let others know this, incase they take it the wrong way and think I'm being racist.
We should all be accepted as a person, not by the race we are from.
Am I OK to believe this?

I am a junior in college, and have a question regarding an argument/research paper i need to write. My topic is: Should mandatory and/or voluntary prayer be permitted in public schools? My possible thesis statement is: Private voluntary prayer should be allowed in public schools.
WHAT are some points/arguments I could make in the paper about this topic? One I have so far is common misconceptions about school prayer, and I was going to talk about the legal aspect of it too. I need quite a few things to talk about because this paper needs to be at least 8 pages. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ah, we hear that homosexuality is an abomination from far too many of you. Yet when we quote
something from the Old Testament we are told that we should pay attention to the new one. If we then say, "hey, that's pretty circular, man, you just quoted from the O.T. about one abomination", it's "Well, that one was important because it was an abomination." Whew! And the wheels go 'round 'n 'round.
Do you know the other abominations?
1. EATING SHRIMP: Leviticus 11:9-11
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
