In Muhammad's time there were quite a few sects that denied Jesus was God. He would have been familiar with the concept before he started getting revelations.
It's interesting to note that Muhammad also taught that a lot of other historical figures were prophets too, e.g. Alexander the Great.
No, the link you provided tells you what Nicaea was about. It standardised the method for calculating Easter and condemned Arianism. (Arianism denied the trinity, not Jesus's divinity.)
You don't even need to make it at home. I used to just but all my stuff on my way into work on Monday and store it in my office. Most of the stuff we put in sandwiches (bread, butter, cheese, cured meats, pickles, condiments) will last a week or more in an air-conditioned office. Just store it in an air-tight container and give it the smell test before you eat it.
If I had to guess I would say it's intending to fill the niche of the family's second car. Something for Dad to drive to work in while Mum drives the kids around in the main car. The person who's so poor that they can only afford a $2,000 car probably can't afford to make an investment that will take 3 years to pay off.
I haven't had an issue with it, and I've been using Outlook.com pretty much since it came out. Before then I was using the Windows Live Mail desktop client and before then I was using Gmail.
I like it too. The proportions look a lot nicer and so does the colour.
The only grounds I can see for criticising it is that it doesn't follow the 'flat design' aesthetic, but I don't think that's a problem. Plenty of logos don't.
I think belonging to a church probably helps a lot too, just because I know quite a few Christians from foreign countries and all of them have pretty mild accents. Even the ones who've only been speaking English for a few years.
Language immersion would be the obvious factor there but I have a hunch that group singing plays a big role too.
> No. People need food, clothing, shelter, a job to survive. On the other hand, humanity has done just fine without the Internet or computers for most of its history.
The implication of this statement being that we have a right to survive, and only a right to survive.
I love that he can talk so comfortably about the strengths and weaknesses of himself and others.
A lot of people are uncomfortable talking plainly about their own importance or about other people's failings. And then you get the odd megalomaniac who's the opposite. It's refreshing to see someone who's comfortable talking about people honestly.
I usually try to fast at least once a week, the longest I've fasted for is 5 days.
The first few days I get hunger pangs around my usual meal times, but they go away soon enough.
Around the fourth day I get the 'real hunger' feeling where it's your whole body aches for food, but the hunger pangs go away. But that had lessened by the end of my fast.
Even if you're not religious I think it's still worth giving fasting a shot, just because it teaches you about hunger. Most people in developed countries will never understand it.
The only Android screenshots that look less pretty to me are the ones taken in the middle of doing something, e.g. the Android lock screen notifications which is in the process of being pulled down vs. the Apple one which looks a lot cleaner because it's fully extended.
