was the civil war unavoidable? yes, if lincoln wouldn't have re-inforced ft. sumter. the fort was being turned over to the confederacy before he did that. the north could have withdrawn. pre-civil war the constitution was concidered a social compact. the south had some legitament reasons for leaving. the missouri comprimise was not a comprimise, making the south feel more threatened. during the presidential campaign lincoln was the only talking about civil war. if the south wanted civil war it would have start a few years earlier when john brown tried to take over that armory in virgina

what does satan do? satan is known as the tempter. it has been foretold that christ jesus will come back to earth, and when that happens, he will throw satan into the lake of fire where he will suffer for eternity. satan is called the temter, because he temts people to sin. he does this becaus he does not want to suffer alone. and god allows this, so that we may prove our faith. but god also puts a collor on satan, in that satan is cannot tempt us more than we can bare (handle). this also makes that whole statement "the devil made me do it" a complete and udder lie. from now unto our death we will always have a choice: follow god or give into the temtations that satan has placed before us and join him in eternal damnation.

does god appreciate that we question him? or does did we miss something in the bible and he just banishes us to hell for not believing in the first place? "do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. do not believe simply because it has been handed down for many generations. do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. do not believe in anything simply because it is written in holy scriptures. do not believe in anything merely on the authority of teachers, elders or wise men. believe only after careful observation and analysis, when you find that it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all. then accept it and live up to it." the buddha on belief - from the kalama sutta

my girlfriend just told me that she was over everything, what am i to think of this? i have been dating the same girl for about 4 years and she moved in about 9 months ago. before we moved in together we had only argued a couple of times. now we probably argue once a week. for me i know it’s common to argue, but today i suppose was different. i just had bought dinner for us and we came back home to a mess. i began cleaning up the house and after 30 minutes i asker her to help. a huge fight ensued because she was slamming things around and i had asked her to stop. i told her that it is okay for her to be upset with me, but to please not take it out on the dishes. she got angry and said that she can’t stand these arguments and that she was just over everything. she then stormed off to her bedroom and that’s that. is my relationship coming to and end? something seems to be missing in your story--or your girlfriend is schizoid. but seriously, it isn't really normal to fight every week, so possibly she is still angry about whatever it is you guys have been fighting about. i would think about the tone you may have had when you asked her to clean, i imagine you were upset because she wasn't helping, and that may have set her off. if you want to save your relationship talk to her like an adult to an adult and try to figure out how to resolve your problems in a positive way. try to avoid accusatory and patronizing statements. you two are probably just having trouble adjusting to living together. good luck

who knows how i can get a loan for $42,000 to cover all my debt so that it's in one payment? i just want one big loan, and debt consolidation won't give me enough, we've already tried... one way to handle this, if you own a house, would be to get a second mortgage or refinance your current mortgage for $42,000 more than the current balance of your mortgage. if you don't own a house and cannot get a debt consolidation loan, there is little else you can do. the best thing would be to pay as much off as you can every month (always pay more than the minimum) until you have little enough debt to get a loan.

how many wise men went to see the baby jesus? why do we say three wise men? aaccording to matthews 2:4 there were wise men, but the bible does not say three (3) only that there were wise men. where did the number three come from? the bible doesn't tell us how many wise men actually went to see jesus. sometime between jesus being born and today, people began to assume that there were 3 wise men merely because they brought three gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. in reality, there were most likely more than 3, but there's no way to prove how many there actually were.

guys pls tell me limewire is legal? the stirctest answer is no, it is not legal because you are downloading music or files from other people's hard drive who have purchased it and are sharing it. that's the problem while you can get in legal trouble by downloading stuff this way, chances are the person sharing the files is going to get in trouble, if they are ever caught. if you want to stay safe, you can download files relatively safely without getting caught, it's the sharing that gets you in the most trouble. i would say it lies in a grey area and there is no definitive answer. if you want my opinion, no it is not really legal but there is nothing in place to really stop it.

what is 'divine proportion'? the divine proportion is also called the golden mean or abbreviated by the greek letter phi. the actual value is (1 + root(5))/2 or about 1.618 (the number actually never ends and is irrational, because root(5) is irrational). as an application, say we have a line of length 1. if you had another line of length 1.618, the ratio between the two would essentially be the golden mean. this ratio occurs almost everywhere in nature. shells form golden spirals, the ratio from tail to dorsal fin and dorsal fin to head on a dolphin is about the golden mean, same for foot to waist and waist to head in humans. so on and so on. it also has been a dominant design principle for much of civilization. the parthenon, for instance is composed of many golden rectangles and books are often designed so that the box of text forms a golden rectangle. there is something about it that is inherently pleasing to the eye.

if a woodchuck were to actually chuck wood, what is the quantity of the wood that would be chucked? i despise those who don't take your question seriously. i bit my thumb at them. fie. the answer depends on what you mean the woodchuck, a common name for groundhogs and woodpeckers. if you mean groundhogs, then the answer is unfortunately quite a small amount of wood. my guess is probably two logs an hour. small logs. according to the prominent wikipedia.org: "the name woodchuck has nothing etymologically to do with wood. it stems from an algonquian name for the animal (possibly narraganset), wuchak. this confusion led to the common tongue twister, 'how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? — a woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.'"

could planets exist in stable orbits around binary stars? could planets exist in stable orbits around binary stars? that might depend on wether the binary stars are very close (and spinning about each other) such that they "look" almost like a simple center of gravity relative to a planet far enough away to not be affected by lets say bumps in the gravity field. einstein told us that gravity distorts space and planets therefore merely follow the curved space layed out for them. the earth senses the gravitational pull of both the sun and say jupiter but only the sun has a major affect because of proximity and mass. the short answer to your question is that planets can exist in stable (though irregular) orbits around binary stars depending on the curvature of space in its orbit. hope that helps a little.

what is the best money making products to sell on ebay? the product is only a portion of the battle. you still have to to think about your ability to sell. then what price it will cost to obtain a certain product. its alot of pulling and tugging to make a profit on ebay. but, products come and go all the time. when fads hit, it also hits ebay. when the fads are gone, those numbers also dwindle on ebay. the other half is your ability to sell the product. i have seen so many people sell the product the wrong way, that even if it was priced low enough, nobody would bid. so, you have to figure out what drives customers to bid, regardless of the product. your best bet is creating a product and selling it on ebay. i have heard people selling things on ebay that they made. i heard someone making 200 a day selling hand made cloaks. but, thats them, you have to find your own market. um, last part about ebay is reselling a product. if you see something cheap enough to make a profit off of, then by all means buy it. see, if you buy something for $100 and sell it for $105, you only made $5 buxx. and after ebay fees, you make "jack." but, if you can find a product for $12 dollars and sell it for $25, then you make a better profit. now its all up to you to sell as much as you can. see? so, small stuff can be worthwhile some times. i used to do okay selling 99 cent coins. not bad for free stuff. i would sell about 100 of them a week. thats not bad for 3 hours worth of work. but, its not enough to live off of, so i sell other things as well. so, to recap, its the product (try to create one yourself if you have to), the price you can get it for (so you dont sell the same product for more then everybody else), and your ability to sell. those three factors, fine tuned will help you get started.

why was hindi declared as national language of india? as far my knowledge,it is not better than sanskrit sanskrit is the mother of all north indian languages tamil is the mother of all south indian languages so why not one of these two? whats ther special in hindi? first of all hindi is not our (india's) single national language. there exists no such thing in our constitution. languages in our constitution is devided into two categories. namely official languages (central administrative)& scheduled list of languages for official use. official languages are hindi and english another 22 regional languages for official use. only around 40% of indians speak hindi as mother tounge but nearly 70% can understand hindi. and that's hardly a criteria for "naional language".

what percentage of the u.s. male population is gay? main problem in gathering statistics on gays is that many people who are homosexual do not want to admit, even to an anonymous interviewer. this is particularly true of people in heterosexual marriages. probably kinsey's 10% figure was skewed higher by some sampling problems. the low-end figures are likely wrong due to people not being honest when surveyed. an article in the gay press today said the british government estimated about 6% of its population was gay.

are you planning on making a new years resolution? if so, what is it? did you make one for this past year? new years resolutions for me don't work. the first week of the new year is the "golden period". several opportunities to make it right. and if you fuck up, it's over. you'll feel like a major turd no matter what you do. if you're lucky, whatever you wanted to do will last for a maximum of two days. after that? screw it. my resolution, like it has been every year since i was thirteen (7 or 8 years ago)is to find a girl who likes me the way i am, is interesting, pretty, and who i can deeply trust and care about. someone who isn't a snob or some cutey-pie flirt.

how season ocurr?/what factors affecting them? the above is an incorrect answer. seasons do not occur because of the distance of the earth to the sun. in fact, during winter, the earth is physically closer to the sun and during the summer, it is furthest. tilt is key. its important that not only is there a tilt on the earth, but the direction of that tilt is not altered during the rotation of the earth around the sun. the northern hemisphere is always tilting away during the winter, and towards the sun during the summer. the tilt of the earth is 23 degrees. so lets say you're at 45 degrees lattitude. during the summer, the sun will rise to 45+23 (68) degrees because the tilt is towards it, and in winter, the sun only goes to 45-23 (22) degrees. there is a big difference between the sun going up 22 degrees and the sun going to 68 degrees. when the sun goes to 68 degrees, it is more overhead, and the earth therefore receives more of its rays. during winter, light rays are striking obliquely, and hence do not warm the earth as much. this is why there are less variations of seasons around the equator, where the sun is almost always directly overhead all the time. and this is why seasons are reversed on the southern hemisphere. when the northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, the south is tilting away.

tell me ...? does post-katrina mold threatens health in new orleans ??? apparently so: "an environmental group says that mold spore counts are four times normal levels in some areas of new orleans in the aftermath of hurricane katrina and warning residents to wear masks and protective clothing may not be enough. the natural resources defense council said their tests show mold spores at "extraordinarily high" levels which could easily trigger serious allergic or asthmatic reactions. the most common symptoms associated with exposure to certain molds include the following: nasal stuffiness, eye irritation, wheezing, aggravation of asthma, cold/flu like symptoms, rashes, fever, shortness of breath, inability to concentrate, fatigue & sometimes lung infections"

can the cd-rw drive in my laptop play dvd's? do i have to buy new hardware, or is there a software fix? dvd is a different format with respect to cd rw. if your hardware supports only cds for reading and burning, then there's no possibility of it reading the dvd. as you mentioned that you have a laptop, i guess it should be a dvd combo, i.e. dvd read only and cd read/write support, because that is the standard in laptops. i rarely have known a laptop model which has a cdrw drive, excepting if it is older than 2 years. you can check the dvd logo on the side of your drive. in case it is a cdrw and you need to play a dvd, you need a computer with dvd drive on your network neibourhood. just share the dvd drive on that computer, and you can access the dvd drive as your own drive. best of luck on the experiment.

why is snow depicted in a crib, when there is no sow fall in bethlehem? because christ was not born on "christmas" december 25. you are correct in the statement about snowfall in bethleham. winter in bethlehem is a cold and rainy season, and a time when shepherds would not spend the nights outside with their flock. (sheep have wool to keep them warm) christ was likely born closer to springtime, as the shepherds were out with their flock overnight. the date for christmas was actually stolen from pagan sun-worshipers and instituted as the birth of jesus by emperor constatine to try to unite his kingdom. research it a little and you will find that even some of the clergy acknowledge this fact. yet they still perpetuate the lie. santa? stolen from festivals in holland. besides jesus never told his deciples to celebrate his birth. aren't christians supposed to be christlike? in the bible, the only meention of a birthday celebration during jesus' life was of a roman ruler that ended with john the baptizer having his head cut off and served on a platter. you think jesus likes birthdays?

what is it in a serious relationship that woman want from men? women want a man who will never cheat on them . always be committed to them. never lie to them. to cherish them and love them forever. they want a man who would die for them. someone who will be by their side no matter what. it's not about what you can buy her or what she can buy you. if you can provide a good home and a good life that's great. just don't base your relationship on money or material things. they want a life partner-someone to spend the rest of their lives with. at least that is what i want for me. i am not the materialistic type. they also need someone who they are attracted to-whether it be physically or emotionally and someone who makes love to them-not just fucks them. someone who will love them for who they are, not critisize their looks or anything else. just love them the way they are.

my sister hates me and i might move up to her grade, should i be worried? your sister doesn't hate you, you probably just irritate the crap out of her, which is entirely natural and common. if you move up to her grade, give her a lot of space and pretend like she's not there, don't worry about it and enjoy everything you can, focus on the good. if she pokes at you and causes problems, tell someone, don't do it back, and go back to ignoring her and going on with life. she'll probably get to a point where she sees being mean doesn't work, and years in the future you'll probably get along just fine.

uses of pythagoras in daily life? typically the 3-4-5 triangle method is used during contruction of some sort where you need to ensure a right angle. you often know the length of one side of something and want to know where to place the other side so that it is at right angles. i used this to frame our basement walls so they would be "square" for drywalling and laying the floor.

who is responsible for male pattern baldness, the mother's side of the family or the father's? i've heard conflicting views about this and am curious to hear if there is a definitive answer. your man's baldness is also linked to heredity. while the balding gene can be inherited from either parent, look at the men on his mother's side of the family to determine the future of his hairline.

could inteligent life have evolved from a different animal group, such as reptiles, birds or even insects? does higher intelligence (such as humans have) require some quality that only mammals have? the fact that female mammals produce milk for their young means that at birth a mammal can have a relatively large brain, although they are relatively helpless. other animals have to be able to at least get around. brains don't grow as much as other parts of the body, which is why babies seem to have large heads. the obvious counter-example is birds, where the young are stuck in the nest and depend on their parents for food. however, flight puts a limit on how heavy a bird can be, and so how heavy its brain can be. but flightless birds are a possible candidate. amphibians and reptiles are cold-blooded, which seems as though it would rule out our sort of intelligence. on the other hand, perhaps an intelligent crocodile would think of slowing down when the temperature drops much as we think of sleep. remember that a large brain would mean a large egg (and you have to fit the rest of the body inside the egg as well).

what's the basis for daylight savings time? benjamin franklin was among the first americans to discuss the idea of daylight saving time. in fact, he proposed the idea while serving as u.s. minister to france as a way of conserving the cost of lighting for shops. the purpose has been to essentially utilize more of the daylight hours in spring and summer for daytime activities. simply put, the sun is up longer in the sky (rises earlier and sets later) in summer. clocks and common mechanical timepieces keep what's called civil time, which roughly corresponds to the passage of a fictitious "average" sun through our sky. this is necessary since the sun does not rise and set on a regular basis, but changes by as much as 15 minutes throughout the course of the year. daylight saving time was generally adopted by countries around world war i, but president wilson repealed the united states' mandatory daylight savings law on march 31, 1918. during world war ii, daylight savings time was reestablished by law on a year-round basis, and later seen as a fuel saving measure during the arab oil embargo crisis of 1973-74. in late 1974, standard time was brought back. during world war ii, the u.s. and some other countries implemented "double" daylight savings time consisting of a two hour shift.

how to improve on premature ejaculation? a technique known as the "pc squeeze" can help control premature ejaculation. this involves flexing the pc muscle repeatedly. you can find your pc muscle by stopping the flow of urine. the muscle that is used to stop the flow of urine (located between the scrotum and butthole) is also the muscle that controls ejaculation. doing a pc workout each day can help strengthen the muscle. it recommended that you start easy: 3 sets of 15 squeezes followed by one long squeeze a the end. after a few weeks of this, the sets and reps can be increased to the point of fatigue.

why did they ban baseball from olympicss? why did they ban baseball from olympicss because the mlb didn't want to suspend its season to let the professional players go to the olympics, in a manner similar to what the nhl does for the winter olympics. this plus other problems like a poorly designed qualifying scheme meant that piss-poor teams from europe and africa went to athens, but several very good teams from n & s america were left out led to almost no ticket sales. it was all about the money.

what is the difference between the fancy forks? as far as "fine dining" goes, there are multiple ways of setting a table, thus there are many different sets of sivlerware. the american standard at a nice restaurant/banquet is to have two forks on the left (one slightly smaller than the other) and the two spoons and the knife on the right of the plate. the smaller of the two forks is used for the salad, and is always the fork on the farthest side (using the american standard.) yes, the forks differ other than size. one of the prongs on the salad fork usually resembles a tooth pick so you can grab the food that always slips away... like tomatoes.
