.... bring one from home. Those who choose to bring their lunch are not criticized. Religion is not forced upon people in an overwhelming manner. If a Christian decides to wear Christian apparel or accessories, they should not be treated any different. They have just as much a right to pray before school, or at lunch to show their individuality, as those around them might through clothing, attitude, and word of mouth. As long as they follow the school codes as expected, they should be treated just as their non-Christian equal. No place in the constitution does it say Christians should be treated different. In fact the first amendment (passed September 25, 1789 and ratifie ....

.... until they had carried the "good news" (or gospel) he had taught them to the ends of the world. The Interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible says, "It is the word of God for those only who "listen" to it." The Gospels are really testimonials of faith, not of biographies. They are divided into two parts -- sayings and narratives. The narratives include miracle stories and biographical legends, while the sayings are more on the complex side. The sayings contain apophthegmata, proverbs, parables, and more. They invite the reader to believe in and obey Christ as the Lord. The meaning of the gospel changes from the coming of the kingdom to the meaning of the coming of J ....

.... possesses a true nature or self called an Atman. In western views, it is similar to a soul without carrying any personal characteristics. (B) Everyone’s Atman is what makes up the ultimate Brahman. So, in a sense, by learning more about the Brahman, Hindus are in turn learning more about themselves and the unity around them. Because the Atman keeps no record of personality of other traits, the reincarnation cycle continues through a person’s karma- which is the actions or deeds that one committed during their past life. By building good karma, one can draw closer to ending the cycle and release his Atman. Buddhism also believes in this Hindu concept but has se ....

.... William Paley once said , “If a man wandered upon a hill, and discovered a watch; who would question the fact, that the watch was created by a designer?” It's possible that the statement is true, but a watch can't be compared to a universe's creation. Paley would later say that the world must have a designer, meaning a God. The watch of coarse must of been created by a designer, but the world is totally different. It's more like a carpenter building a house or building. People can relate more to a building than a universe, cause it's possible that one can experience living within a house. It's not possible for anyone to live among the outside world, and think that God cr ....

.... waking human state, one Siddhartha Guatama roused himself. Buddism begins with a man who woke up. Budda was born a prince named Siddhartha Guatama in a small kingdom in what is now Nepal in 563b.c.e. Shortly after his birth, his father consulted with a number of astrologers, all of whom declared that the newborn prince would become a great king and that he would rule the world in truth and righteousness. Among these astrologers, there was one who declared that if the prince were to see a sick person, an old person, a corpse, and a world renouncing ascetic, he would become dissatisfied with life and become a wandering monk in order to seek final peace. King Shuddhodana ....

.... penny but the only thing he's getting now is lost-wages paid by his insurance company. It doesn't even close to what he would be making if the deli were still up and running. But it's better than nothing, I guess. His business has been through a lot of hardships over the last 16 years. Another difficulty was the building of the Blue Route near his business. The construction blocked almost everyone from entering the building. I don't know if you could blame God for that sort of problem or maybe it was just fate. But with these dilemmas and problems, he didn't question why God allowed these things to happen. He looked insstead to the way he benefited from the exp ....

.... It lets a person live for the right reasons and have a full understanding of his place on the earth. I have found that there is not one set definition for . The word is over two thousand years old. All of the Chinese philosophies used the word but the context in which the word is used varies. Tao originally meant “the way”, to a Taoist Tao is regarded as a substance or non-substance. One context in which a Taoist knows the word Tao is in the sense of a method and a course of conduct. Taoist writings are wise and mystical. They are written in a poetic form. The Taoist bible is 1,120 volumes long. The Chuang Tzu is a compilation of Taoist writings from the time per ....
