Why are some people so adhereant to stereotypes? Does it give them a sense of unity, or a feeling of belonging? And why do they choose to relish in the negative and consider it the norm?

The christmas tree stands for christmas. You dont see people with 'holiday' trees in their house for hannakuah. It doesnt stand for other holidays such as hannakuah and kwanza. It is clearly a symbol of christmas. So my question is why do people complain about "christmas trees" but not about "holiday trees" when they are both still symbolizing Christmas? I believe its like taking a manorah and calling it a "holiday candle holder". Either way we will all know it is going to symbolize hannakuah.

I am not a Catholic or even a Christian although at one point I was a Catholic and at other points I attended the Church of England.

I often see people claim that the Catholic Church is unbliblical what I don't understand is, how an unbliblical Church managed to cannonize the Bible?

If there is any answer other than calling the catchechism(sp) unbliblical can someone please explain what is so false about the Catholic Church from a Christian point of view?

I only ask because when I "converted" from Catholicism to C of E years ago it was because I was actively attending a C of E Church for years opposed to a Catholic one. I didn't do it to save my soul/because I thought Catholicism is wrong.
-P.S. I have not been either for many years, I just can't understand these statements.

I took three classes this semester. I got two A's and one F! The F was shocking considering I got a 98% on the Mid-Term. The professor based the final grade on the mid-term, a semester paper, and final. He never gave the class back our papers so I don't know what I got on it, though I thought I did well on it. In regards to the final I don't think I did as well as the mid-term but there is no way I could have gotten an F. I know every university is different but do you guys have any suggestions on going about disputing this grade? I have already emailed the professor but he will be gone for winter break. I had a 3.5 GPA and now it's a 3.1!! Also, the professor said, offhandedly, that if people did bad on the midterm he may just base the grade on the final. Can't I argue to have him base my grade on the midterm if I really did that bad on the final (final not cumulative)? I will wait it out and repeal but any words of advice/suggestions would be appreciated.

It was announced that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, converted to the Catholic faith during a Mass held on Friday night at a chapel in London, the Catholic Church said in a statement released after the fact.

"It can be confirmed that Tony Blair has been received into full communion with the Catholic church by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor," the head of the church in England and Wales, the church said in the same statement.

Blair, who had long been a member of the Church of England, converted to Catholicism. Does this shock you? Please you? Upset you? How does it affect you?

I was making this family tree yesterday of ancient families and stumbled upon a remarkable discovery. I've read some documents that said Darda of the bible was son of Zarah (Zerah) and Electra. Coincidentally, the greek mythology says Darda Dardanus, ancestor of the kings of Troy, is son of a so called Electra, only this time, instead of Zerah, it was Zeus who fathered this son.
So I just want to know this: Is there someone in the bible that goes by the name Electra? I'd appreciate an answer.
