They say that it's Herodotus...

Why did Asian countries have different religions?

Not sure I totally understand the question.

Throughout history, there were many times and regions where religion was tied closely with the government. Often the government was the same as god as in Egypt. Other times, the government would embrace or even enforce a specific religion such as with Rome (although Rome went through various stages at times even having emperor gods and only later embracing Christianity). Often there would be several small unrecognized religions under the surface while a major religion was the "official" religion of the country or region. The more you would have people from other regions (and religions) passing through a region, the more these religions would become intermixed.

Isolated regions will generally form religions that diverge from root sources and will eventually become totally different from those of others around them. Mixing of people causes religions to mix as well. No religion remains exactly the same for very long. Asian countries would have had to have some level of isolation to develop their own religions. But as you can see, most are similar to each other indicating they had similar roots.

Why Asian people like to eat with hand?

Here is one answer. I'm married to a Southeast Asian woman who is upper class and actually had a parent in the diplomacy core. Nevertheless, whenever I cook something great, especially bbq chicken (whether outside on the grill or inside in the Showtime Rotisserie) with serving of rice and a salad, she always opts to eat with her hand. I would say, for westerners, at least, it's a sign of respect for a meal well-prepared.

Funny, I also have friends who are disgusted by the sight of Asians eating with their hand in areas near flight-ports like San Francisco. These same friends of mine also use their hands to scarf down burgers and fries, fried zuchinni, popcorn, trail mix, etc, and they are mostly overweight. Okay, I'm being kind, these American friends of mine are obese. (I'm in shape, thanks to my Asian diet!


My wife tells me, and if I'm paying attention I would know, she actually finishes a meal quicker and is more satisfied when she eats with hand.


At one point, my wife (we're in our 30's) showed me how to eat with hand: it's only with the thumb and two forefingers of the right hand...if you don't use your hand that way, you're like an infant in the eyes of the Asian people.


Always now, I use utensils; on the occasion when my wife announces that she's gonna eat with hand, I usually look straight ahead at the tele and eat with my utensils!


;o)

What impact did conflicts in Asia have on politics in the Unites States?

As the US did not exist until comparatively recently most conflicts in Asia had no effect at all on the politics of the US

Very true, but I wouldn't ignore the conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, World War II, the Korean Expedition of of 1871 or the Philippine War of Independence. I'm sure some of these have had some effect on US politics but I wouldn't be able to answer your question directly.

Do Asian guys like when white girls stare at them or start to talk to them?

Yes. Asian guys LOVE that. All guys love that!

AnswerI think most all guys like that.

I'm in India and having a girlfriend here is very difficult. If our parents comes to know, there are 90% chances that we'll be given death punishment.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think most straight guys will love that. Doesn't matter what their nationality/ethnicity is.

Indian dude, that's disturbing, I feel sorry for you bro. And about this question, the only reason why a white girl would be staring and wants to talk is because the Asian guy dresses nice and have a lot of money.

Pliny governor of Asia Minor punished all Christians?

Pliny was the governor of Bithynia and Pontus in Asia Minor, and his letters to the Roman Emperor Trajan indicate that he was given authority to punish Christians (with death) if they admitted to being Christian. Even though his letters give evidence of carrying out this punishment, it is clear that he was reluctant to do so, and that he did not seek out Christians for this purpose. The letters show that a Christian must first be denounced in order to merit Pliny's investigation. We don't have evidence of the overall result of this policy, but it seems unlikely many Christians were brought to trial by Pliny the Younger.
