I mean African American is a popular term but they sure don't want to go to Africa. Oprah set up a school there but she won't live there. If they feel so close to the mother land go visit then you'd appreciate what you have here.

is it that so many just cannot understand that God does exist and His word, the Bible is our way of knowing Him?

This is kind of an old article but I was wondering what people's thoughts on the idea that many times Mother Teresa described not feeling God's presence.
Here is a quote from the article.
"Jesus has a very special love for you. As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great that I look and do not see, listen and do not hear.
— Mother Teresa to the Rev. Michael Van Der Peet, September 1979"
Here is the article http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1655415-1,00.html.
I just want people's thoughts on this. Do not try to guess my thoughts.
Thanks

The reason i ask this question is that: people always say i cant wait for christmas because of the toys. but they dont realize is that if they didn't have family, friends or someone that love them they wont have nothing without getting for themselves. so i think people should like most about christmas is the people around them instead of things thats wont last thats long.thats why the christmas songs like: This chistmas, all i want for christmas is you and songs like thats. so if you can answer this question very meanful then type as much you can to answer this question then thank you. i'm dieing to hear the answer to my questions.

As though this person is somehow relevant to your life in a crazy, completely illogical way. I'm not talking about a non-existent character you've molded in your mind, like an ideal girlfriend or boyfriend, but someone you've perhaps seen on the news, read about in a non-fiction book or heard about from a friend.
I've been experiencing this feeling for the past week or so and it's been very unsettling.

My sister in law is dying of brain cancer, she is 31 and has three small children. I have already gotten her something, But we have a very big family and we are running out of ideas fast. Everyone on her side has bought her gowns, But we would like something that she would enjoy and could be passed on too her children as a keepsake. Any suggestions would be very appreciative at this point!!!!!!

I asked a second ago about us uplifting ourselves as a black people.

I said that we need to learn to love eachother and support one another and that we may be the source of our problems now.

I said we may be keeping ourselves down now. I said that we can overcome whatever is thrown at us but we have to look within ourselves.

I was reported! Am I doing something wrong? Are my questions hitting a nerve? OMG I thought this was section to talk about things that affect cultural groups.

I wanted to ask people good questions and not things like "Am I White?" or "Why do they stink?"

I want to know if I am making people mad or something-If I am stepping on toes I would like to know why.

I was thinking about going without the Hijab for a week just to prove the point that Islam does not force this on us. Those fathers that killed their daughters for not wearing a piece of clothing on their heads are in the wrong. Nowhere in the Quran or hadiths does it say a man may force this on her. The only obedience a woman has is towards Allah. Men are not rulers or dictators over us, and if they knew their religion inside and out they would know this.

So, for the next week, I'm going without the Hijab. My husband and all of my family (both in the USA and in Pakistan) are fully supportive of this. They know my intentions, Allah knows my intentions, and in this kind of situation it is actually seen as a good thing.

What do you think about this? After the week, I will resume wearing it of my own free will, but for this week it's a show of support for those who were oppressed.

Instead of protecting me and loving me he took advantage and took my innocence. Then when the inevitable happened he tried to get me to have an abortion.

Mom was almost as bad. She knew the whole time what he was doing and never even tried to stop him.

I know what the fifth commandment says and that I forgive.
But I struggle with it. I really do.

How do I forgive them? How can I honor them after what happened?

Nondum lucet, sed Cornelia surgit et per villam ambulat. Adhuc dormiunt pater et mater et Marcus. Etiam Sextus dormit neque Corneliam vexat. Non tamen dormuint servi et ancillae. Omnes iam surgunt et laborare parant quod Cornelium et Aureliam timent. Cornelia ancillam nomine Syram. observat quae villam purgat et alteram nomine Thressam quae cibum conquere parat. Multi servi mox in agros currunt ubi strenue laborant. Aquam e rivo in villam portant. Iam surgunt Cornelius et Aurelia. Cornelius petit davum qui in horto est. Iratus subit est Cornelius et Aurelia. Dabus ubi Cornelium audit, statim surgit et laborare parat. Aurelia Corneliam docet villam curare. Ancilla villam purgant, cibum coquont lanam trahunt. repreendit Aurlia ancillas si ignava sunt. Matrem observat Cornial et omnia quae mater facit facere parat. Matrem adiuvare vult, sed ipsa neque servum neque ancillam reprehendit. Servi et ancillae nunc strenue laborant. Necesse est neque servum neque ancillam reprehendere.
