The islamic definition of morality and good conduct is the same as anyother humane person's. To live in peace, do good to others, help those less fortunate, and defend and protect the weak. What do you think of this quote?

"Muslim children, although distinct in their value system, still are exposed to and affected by what they see and learn. In Islamic teachings, great emphasis has been placed on moral conduct and behavior.

The Quran says, "Lo, the noblest of you, in the sight of God, is (the one) best in conduct. Lo, God is knower, Aware" (49:13).

"By the soul, and the proportion and order given to it, and its enlightenment as to its wrong, and its right. Truly he succeeds that purifies it (the soul), and he fails that corrupts it" (91:7-10).

Prophet Muhammad (), has said, "I have been sent to perfect your conduct" (Bukhari and Muslim). "A fathers' teaching his child good manners is better than giving a bushel of grain (in charity)" (Bukhari)."

I am attempting to learn Danish on my own, but the books I have read so far do not actually tell me so much about the cases and how they work in the Danish language.

If it's not too much trouble, could you also please list and explain how the cases work? Examples too perhaps?

If you like or need to, you could refer to German cases to aid in the examples as I know German already because I have noticed the similarities between German and Danish already.

Any other information would also be helpful as I only have learned the very basics of Danish so far...

Thank you!

Men, I've heard stories where during sex, men would say this girl has a sweet p*ssy. My question is what exactly makes a woman's p*ssy sweet. Is it when her p*ssy is tight, or moist or what? What is sweet about it, what is the best kind.

Serious answers please, no perverts

I got a free Book of Mormon from the elders. And I found a book that had all the Book of Mormon, the Doctrines and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. Unfortunately, I couldn't check it out because it was in the reference section. And even though I could, I'd still like to have my own. Will I able to get one from the nearby ward? Would I have to purchase it? And what time will be appropriate? (I'm able to make it between 5and 7 p.m. on tuesday, wednesday, and thursday.) Help plz.
P.S.: I'm not an official mormon yet, even though I am greatly interested in the Church and am planning to become one after some studies and getting agreement from my parents.(I'm 17 and thus not independent yet. Also I want my family to approve me joining the church so that I don't have to face bitter situations.) Without a doubt, I've never been to a ward although I know where it is. That's why I'm asking these questions which would obviously look so basic to mormon brothers and sisters.

I don't get why people take the Bible literally word for word. Even Jesus himself said that the stories in the Old Testament were symbolic and not to be taken literally. To take the stories in the bible Literally is to miss the point of the stories. The stories in the Bible are about redemption and forgivness. They are desinged to give people moral guidance in their lives and to teach people how to live moral lives. It gets so old hearing people try to prove the Bible scientifically when the bible is so obviously not a textbook.

If you could choose one person that you would love to see born again, who would that be? Actually, you may name more than one but put your greatest desire at the top of the list.

P.S. I'll agree with you for them.

A recent post asking about the difference between christian and "born again" christian garnered this reply, among others:

"A So called Christian can be anyone that claims a believeth, But they have not the spirit of God or the Spirit of Truth which is the same thing. But a True Born Again Christian will possess the spirit of truth that will not leave that person Confussed. The fake one will have a thought, the real one will have a Experince."

Now---after you stop ROTFL at the whack job typing and grammar skills, notice that this post seems to lay out at least FOUR specific levels of christianity:

1. "So called" Christian.
2. Christian.
3. "born again" Christian.
4. TRUE "born again" Christian.

Is there a secret handshake? Separate churchs? Different heavens? What gives?

Why can't y'all just get along? :-)

Accepting that there is no life in this solar system outside of Earth, how could beings from even the closest possible life-supporting star system get here? Breaking the 'light barrier', or an extremely long flight time, or what?

The only bad answers are ones that don't answer the question.

Why is it still wrong based on race (ie, African descent), color (ie, black), ethnicity (ie, Latino), female gender, sexual orientation (ie, gay or lesbian), or religious beliefs, but it is still ok to stereotype and denegrate someone because of their short stature?

Boil equal parts of vinegar, lemon juice and powdered litharge for thirty minutes over a slow fire in a porcelain-lined kettle.

This is 3 centuries old and was used extensively by the upper classes in Europe.........and some called Witches, of course.
