How will you maintain peace and unity among all religion?

There is a way to tolerance and respect of persons....But to peace and unity among religions is impossible. They all teach different things (ie. Islam *works righteousness of the 5 pillars*, Buddhism *attempting to be the best person you can be so that you'll become enlightend and end suffering by ceasing to exist*, Christian *Peace with God by His grace alone through the sacrifice of Jesus who is God in the flesh*), so unity in that respect is never going to happen.

Peace lily plant leaves dry out from the ends and do not bloom what can you do?

Peace lilies are one house plant that it is hard to over-water.

Kept in a container with good drainage and consistently moist soil, then the best way to keep your peace lily from getting dry tips is to keep it out of forced hot air furnace drafts.

To encourage bloom, fertilize with a one-half strength (half of what is recommended by the manufacturer) liquid houseplant fertilizer once a month. Too much fertilizer can contribute to leaf burn, so don't overdo the fertilizer.

Keep in a moderately light-to-bright location, out of direct sunlight.

Rotate your peace lily pot one-quarter turn each time you water it, so it is consistently getting light from all directions.

Can you repot a peace lilly?

Of course you can! Peace lilies are vigorous, and a healthy plant will probably need to be repotted once a year! You can check your plant to see if it needs repotting in several ways. You can check the roots: if they are growing out of the drainage holes in your pot, it needs repotting. You can pull the plant out of the pot and see if it is root-bound (the roots have filled the pot and are growing round and round in circles), and if when you water it the water goes immediatly through the pot and out the bottom, there is probably too many roots and not enough soil to soak up any water. The new pot should not be any more than one size larger than the pot you have the plant in now.

How many people preached about peace to the world before Jesus came?

The reason religious and political leaders of the past have preached 'peace to the world' was to pacify their people and to consolidate their power. They 'preached peace', but 'pursued war'. God's true prophets did notpreach 'peace'. Their warnings were of famine and warfare if their listeners didn't repent from their wrongdoings. This is why God's prophets were tortured and put to death. Jesus did not preach 'peace to the world'. Jesus said, "I came to start a fire on the earth, and what more is there for me to wish if it has already been lighted? Indeed, I have a baptism with which to be baptized, and how I am being distressed until it is finished! Do YOU imagine I came to give peace on the earth? No, indeed, I tell YOU, but rather division. For from now on there will be five in one house divided, three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against [her] mother, mother-in-law against [her] daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against [her] mother-in-law." (Luke 12:49-53). Also"In the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite." (Daniel 2:44) (Also, read Luke 1:32, 33). The only true and lasting 'peace for the world' there can ever be is the 'world peace' that will be brought about on the cleansed Earth, through God's Kingdom, with Jesus Christ as King.

Why is the word TRUST spelled TRVST on Peace silver dollars?

This question comes up frequently. If you think about it for a few moments, how likely would it be for the Mint to make the same "mistake" on hundreds of millions of coins struck over a 14-year period without fixing it? The explanation is that it's NOTan error, just artistic license.

In the 1920s it was a common affectation for artists to use the Latin alphabet for items that were designed in the Classical style. Latin doesn't have the letter U; V was both a vowel and consonant like our use of the letter Y. You had to figure out the sound from the context in which the letter was used.

Both dollars and quarters from that era used the Latin spelling so they both read TRVST. In addition many buildings and other artwork from that era were all lettered with the Roman alphabet.
