What does ashana mean?

I have been told that ashana means 'Welcome Home' in an African dialect that i have not been able to identify yet West African Ghana was Ashanti with its people known by that name. In Avesta (ancient Persian) Asha is the word for the cosmic principle of good and does not translate simply into English though the Avestan word for the opposite is Drug. In Zoroastianism Asha is often discribed as a path. For me Ashana means "Welcome Home" Toran


How many religious people are world wide?

I'm sure that there is an actual number, but since there are so many cultures that have developed "branches" of their own religions, it is a difficult one to answer. For instance, Southern Baptists stemmed from Baptists, which stemmed from Christianism which started in the Jewish religion of the Old Testament. Southern Baptists share similarities of each of it's predecessors, but are not entirely the same. So take that into account, and then consider all of the minor villages and tribes that inhabit the earth. Each of these have some sort of their own religion as well, and their are thousands of them. Major religions are: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Chinese traditional, Buddhism, Sikhism, Juche, Spiritism, Judaism, Baha'i, Jainism, Shinto, Cao Dai, Zoroastianism, Tenrikyo, Neo-Paganism, Universalism, Rastafarianism, Scientology. http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html


How were the Jews discriminated against during the middle ages?

There are an immense number of reasons, ranging from politics to economics to religious practices to social tendencies to confusion to imperial conquests to retribution (perceived or actual).The Jews had many traits that made them easy targets for discrimination.1. They were spread out or were nomads as a community always making them a minority.2. Their religion is specific to their culture (despite being essentially the same as christianity) made them different.3. They looked different with specific facial markers, skin colour and clothes which made them easy to spot.4. The Jews were often successful in business which meant they were richer than most which made people jealous.Answeri think its because Hitler hated anyone different and the important thing to remember is that it wasn't only the Jews that were discriminated against, disabled (mentally and physically) people and many other religions were killed to If they did not agree with Hitler.AnswerThey are apparently responsible for Jesus' death, and their laws permitted them to charge interest on loans - which they did - while Christians could not. This engendered a lot of jealousy and hate for them in the general population. Their ways (such as not allowing people to 'become' Jews; this is part of Jewish custom that a Jew must have a Jewish mother) also created an atmosphere of mistrust. People wondered what they were doing and what they were planning. Paranoia, envy, hate and a fairly easy excuse, for the time anyway, combined to make the unfortunate Jews the target of many persecutions throughtout history; examples of such time are obviously the Holocaust and the period of the Black Death.Answer:The previous answer contains multiple errors. According to the New Testament, the Jews were not responsible for the death of Jesus, but many Christians perceived them as responsible. Also, anyone is allowed to become a Jew. Jews welcome converts, they just don't seek them out. Historically, it was the oppressors of the Jews who forbade conversion to Judaism. Also, Jews were moneylenders because this was one of the few occupations they were allowed to hold, and they did not charge exorbitant rates. They simply charged interest while the Christians were forbidden to charge interest. This created animosity.
