1Why were the French and British interested in colonizing the area of North America that became the US and Canada?

Well, the French and the British were travelling to Asia to find an easier way in stead of going around Africa and then facing pirates. They already knew that the world was round OS they sailed to Asia and then landed on land that was known as North America. They wanted to explore and get different resources such as fish and furs. In this way they would become more wealthy for all of the new items that they would have. I hope this helped!

Why do Islam's cover their faces?

Answer 1Why do the Taliban cover their faces? I simply think it's because they are cowards! There is mainly one reason why a human being covers their face when in public..........that is because they have something to hide. When hiding one self........it means they are afraid, or ashamed of what they are doing. Think about this Taliban!! Do you see American soldiers covering their faces when in battle or serving a purpose? It's simply.........we have nothing to hide from or be ashamed of!!!Answer 2It has three main purposes: (1) it protects the anonymity of the Taliban members, (2) it reflects the modesty requirements of the group, (3) it is effective against the dust and dust storms that are often in the area.


What is Psalm 2?

== 1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, 3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision. 5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. 6Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. 7I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. 8Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. 9Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. 10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. 11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.


1Why does Microsoft recommend using Add Remove Programs to remove an installed application?

It is recommended by Microsoft as a more complete and thorough way to remove an application rather than using the proprietary un-install option on the software installed. However, occasionally some files and folders can be left behind and these will have to be removed manually from the "program files" folder.


Why did the Jews plot against Jesus and had him crucified?

Answer 1They didn't hand Him BACK, they handed Him OVER TO the Romans. An ad hoc militia from the Temple (John 18:3) were the first ones who arrested Jesus and took Him to a priest (John 18:13). The Romans wouldn't let foreign authorities execute people. They reserved that right to themselves. Roman execution of a foreigner meant crucifixion. The religious authorities wanted Jesus dead, but they couldn't execute Him, so they had to pressure the Roman authority (Pontius Pilate) to do it for them. The Bible tells about it quite elegantly.John 18:28-3228Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas [high priest]unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.29Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?30They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee. *31Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:*32That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.* [Meaning crucifixion]*Emphasis addedAnswer 2The New Testament account is as portrayed in Answer 1. The Gospels paint Pontius Pilate as a man who seems fair and honest. Meanwhile, the rabid Jewish crowd demands Jesus' blood in a persistent and foul way. However, as the Gospels were written as polemics designed to convince people of Christianity's veracity, they should not be seen as an objective historical narrative. In this particular instance, they make assertions, such as the Jews giving Jesus over to be crucified, which are not historically valid and are particularly problematic as will be examined below.Examining the New Testament AccountHowever, assuming that Jesus was a true historical figure, it seems far more likely in actuality that the reverse occurred. The Romans were probably intent on crucifying him and the Jews most likely begged for long-term imprisonment instead of execution. Of course, this would not be out of any love for what Jesus was preaching and many probably would have agreed that as heretic he should be silenced. However, there are only four acceptable implementations of capital punishment in Judaism that are strongly regulated: decapitation, quick strangulation, quick strangulation with internal burning, and stoning. There is complete rejection of any form of capital punishment that uses piercings to kill or leaves the criminal to suffer for hours on end. Crucifixion is in both categories and would be opposed on those grounds; it remains a uniquely Roman punishment.It is interesting that Pontius Pilate is painted so dovishly in the Bible as concerns the debate on Jesus' death, but nearly every other Roman source paints him as a vile and cruel man. Such a man would have delighted in crucifying a man he perceived as a threat and Jesus was a serious threat to the Roman Empire. The Messiah of that period was understood the way that Jews still understand this concept: an Earthly King who would establish a Jewish Kingdom. Necessarily, therefore, Jesus was going to have to raise an army or commit some political intrigue to achieve this goal. The Romans were likely afraid that Jesus would try to lead a rebellion to free Judea from Roman occupation. This fear would prove justified when another Messianic Candidate, Bar Kochba, would actually lead a revolt against the Romans that ended disastrously for the Jews. In order to prevent Jesus from taking that power, the Romans pre-emptively sought him out and questioned if he was the King of Jews, i.e. someone actively trying to create a Jewish Kingdom in defiance of Rome. When Pontius Pilate received answers that troubled him, why would he spare the rod here when there was such an obvious threat?The Church does not even hold to the line in Matthew 27:25 where Jews take upon themselves the bloodguilt for the Crucifixion. The recent Popes, and the Catholic Church in general, have made clear that the truth is that the Romans executed Christ in contravention to this verse. Many Protestant Churches (like the Lutheran and Episcopalian Churches) got there even sooner than the Catholics. Since Christian Leadership does not hold those lines in the Book of Matthew to be necessarily authentic or worth following, Christian Leadership does not even advocate for them. However, in the early days of the church, Paul and Peter could not sell Christianity to the Gentiles while claiming that the Roman people were responsible for the Death of the Savior, so Matthew 27:25, ascribing bloodguilt to the Jews, was added to avoid condemning the Romans for their act. The other Gospels, like John, reflect this deflection campaign. Jews, while not major fans of Jesus, are not responsible for his death.


How can you get in touch with a jinn?

Jinn like a home where there the iman of the people living there is low. when you enter your home say bismillah and say bismillah when you eat. Also dont play music in your home play Qur'an. Jinns love music so avoid it. If you dont do these things your giving the jinns food , a place to live and entertainment. Get the quran. Recite it every night. Also play quran inthe house if you cant read it. Say Aya Kursi as many times you can. Remember evil Jinn can not harm you physically. Remember to keep Allah in your heart and seek refuge from evil. I have had first hand experience of these creatures. Also, be true to yourself, stay away from bad things i.e. lies, theft, bribery, adultery, alcohol etc. Become strong from inside and then fight it with the help of Allah.
