I hear people who support "date your race only", but I don't hear the reason. Why should I ONLY date my race?

1"No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off shall enter the assembly of the LORD.

2 "No one born of a forbidden union may enter the assembly of the LORD. Even to the tenth generation, none of his descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD."

(Deuteronomy 23:1-2)

It talks about Judah, a messianic figure who lived about 75 BCE, who's own writing is found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. It also talks about what Judah, Jesus (if he existed), and men like Jim Jones and David Koresh have in common. Has anyone read it?

A judge in the US (Roy Moore) desperately tried to sneak the Ten Commandments into a monument, at night, in 2001. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Moore).
Why are people like him enslaved to the old testament if Jesus came to abolish Moses's law? I mean, either we should stone to death our own children (Deuteronomy 21) and all the other bizarre OT passages, or not.
It seems to me that the Ten Commandments should be relevant to Jews, not Christians.
Did I miss something?

When Joan of Arc was 19 years old, the church bishops condemned her to death by fire, and she was tied to a post and burned alive. She cried out in pain and terror as the flames climbed up her body.

Why did God allow such a horrible thing to happen?

why are some people so interested in what consenting adults do in the bedroom?
how can these people, who vehemently claim not to be gay, expect anyone to believe them?

I have letter written to all my kids since they were small in the event that I would ever die. Are you prepared to go...? Death has no respect for anyone so, I was sure that I made my letters and every so often, I replace them with new ones.

Also, with hugging, is it true that if same-gendered people hug, it's supposed to be criss crossed, & with male hugging female, female is supposed to have her arms around the guy's neck while the guy has his arms around her waist? That's what I was always taught. Just like they say you should always shake hands with your right hand & wear your watch on your left wrist.

I need some good names that are sort of dark sounding. I'm writing a book, and they're pretty vital to the plot. Both guy and girl names'd be very much appreciated. I've been using Japanese names, but I'd like a change.

Thanks ^_^

Is it true that Joseph and Mary were married? If so, then why was she a virgin, and it is said to be the Immaculate Conception? I'm not asking to be incindiery; I'm a Christian and have heard the story many times, but never thought about the virgin part for some reason. Was this explained - why she was still a virgin? Or were they not really married, but people thought that she sinned and that's why they left (that part about them fleeing, or rather, why, is always left out).

Why do people tell me I act like I think I'm pretty? This girl I work with says that? I don't act that way? I don't wear makeup or get my hair done. I wear plain clothing? What would give her and other people that impression.
