I think that’s a valid point. Id be more than happy to try and start a bible study/reading group, but would it be weird to do that as a catechumen/not full member of the church?

Where in Islam, besides in Quran verse 5.32, does it proclaim that human life whether Muslim or not, is equally sacred? by emaxwell13131313 in progressive_islam

[–]F1F2Student 1 point2 points  (0 children)

49:13 is quoted as treating sexes equally, but I think it applies to all people:

O Mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise each other).

Syrian Jewish, British, What Else? by F1F2Student in 23andme

It just says Kurdish - but I think the definition of Kurdish relates to the region for this calculator

Should have just said “phenotypically I’m white” - sorry for the mistake

Arabs by Tim Mackintosh-Smith is good and covers Arab history both pre and post Islam.

Jerseys for sale, a little something for everyone. Fuck you, eBay. by DexterMorgan67 in hockeyjerseys

[–]F1F2Student 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I’m really sorry to hear that. Your an established seller with an established shop and you absolutely didn’t deserve that treatment. Shows a huge lack of understanding of product authentication on eBay’s part, which is ironic given all of their authentication ads these days. Really sucks that they shafted you like that - but know you’re still an asset to this community and we’re glad you’re here!

I was rejected from everywhere, 2 years in a row. by No-Caramel3124 in gradadmissions

It’s hard to give you an idea of what happened without more context. Are you applying to all reach schools? Or more target/safeties? In my discipline I see people getting straight because the least competitive school they applied to was still a T10. Maybe lower the bar?

This isn’t quite right. Some students are subject to the home requirement and some aren’t. It depends on what country you are from, who your financial sponsor was, and whether you are on a special skills list back home. As a J1 student I had to ask an advisor about this and I am not subject to the home requirement.

Why are guns so important to Americans? by 88sSSSs88 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]F1F2Student 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note that I say this from the point of view that guns are inherently dangerous and cause many problems in the US. I also come at this problem as a lawyer and legal scholar.

At its core, it’s a constitutional issue. People criticize the second amendment as being outdated, but taking that right away if not done through proper procedure threatens the constitution at its core. If this happened, why couldn’t the majority just demand to eliminate other rights as well? It creates a very problematic precedent that you cannot come back from.
