ullangoo saidThe intolerant ones are those who think they have the whole truth and nothing but the truth: the monotheists. I'm not sure about the relationship of intolerance with monotheism, but I think people who believe in only one belief are less tolerant to others.

Yes, in religion there are two main aspects. One is about things of after-life and the other is about moral issue. Yes, there are many religions which don't emphasise the value of tolerance.

The relationship of religion and tolerance is indeed difficult. I'd rather have not opened the door of debate as to this. I don't think Judaism particularly teaches the importance of tolerance, yet in Christianity and Buddhism, tolerance and mercy are taught actually.
I think Christianity taught the importance of tolerance, and Christians think they are tolerant. But I think they tend to think that they are only tolerant and those who do not believe in their God are not tolerant. Therefore they can easily exclude people who don't believe in their religion. As a result they seem to be intolerant. This tendency is stronger among people who have strong faith. So in my eyes, the more they are ernest in their belief, the less they are likely to accept other way of thinking or faith.
In the case of Buddhism, the situations are similar. Mercy is thought to be the highest value in Buddhism. Therefore they tend to conclude those who can' t show mercy deserve death.

I think most important teaching in religion is being tolerant.Yet I found religious people are not tolerant. They only accept the world according as they believe in.
They try to exclude other than what they believe.I want religious people to know what the essence of religion is.
Maybe it's possible because they are 'religious'

Labour cost in China is much cheaper than Japan. Japan's company has them do many manual jobs. American products are more excellent than Japan's product. More and more people are inclined to start using American products.
Japan as a country has already disappeared. Although it might take some time for people to realise it.

The gap between China and Japan has been expanding in terms of cheap cost in labour. The gap between America and Japan has also been increasing in terms of efficiency in system. Indeed our country is surrounded by big market and universal value.

Recently one of our young coworkers came to our office for the first time, wearing this costume. I asked her what the name of her style, immediately she replied, it's 'leggings'. But I didn't confirm how it spelt. I thought it's leg-ins, which turned out to be wrong today. The correct spelling was 'leggings'
Here are images of leggings similar to what I intended to mean. Those are either a pantyhose type leggings or rather a leotard type leggings. Japanese women like to wear leotard or tights rather than pantyhose, so their appearances are far from sexy.
Leotard hides their naked part of legs, but made their hid intention appear, that also instigates our imagination -how the hid part is like.

Many years ago people tend to believe bureaucrats or civil servants are 'excellent', smarter than them, because they know almost all civil servants are elites, chosen passed through very competitive test.
Once I had a chance to see a test of civil servants. I was unable to answer any questions at all, all questions were academic, or even pedantic, far from our common knowledge at all, plain description and many questions, superficial, that doesn't require deeper knowledge.
Apparently those who intend to be a civil servant are not required to read many books. All they have to do is to know the name of author, what book they wrote and simple description of the contents of what they wrote.
They are forbidden to think anything deeper. Instead they are required to transact bureaucratically and that's why I am afraid they might be going to mislead us. What they lack is vision and perspective. They are short-sighted.

If you gave away a knife as a e.g. birthday present, you'd cut the friendship. And a wallet given away had to have a coin in it, if not all the money the receiver put in it would get lost. And ten more, at least. I think she even had a variety of your umbrella one. Funny.

Superstitions often survive over generation to generation, so those who have the same superstitions can trace back to their common ancestor.

But excellent people are rare in the general population, too, simply because excellence is rare by definition. If an organization - any organization, public or private - does not value, reward, and actively select for excellence, then excellence will be rare in that organization. Government is not very different in this regard than private industry.

This is courting.Love is not something you leave home when you go to work. Or it isn´t something you can do later.Friendship requires likeness and appeal. Love doesn´t.Love is a state. It is much more the one who loves than the one loved. Love doesn´t need an object. It is complete as such.

Aside from that, apparently novelistic or anachronistic parts were excluded to Apocrypha. Bible harmonises with historical events.

Literal translation doesn't work.English term 'Good morning' is literally means 'yoi -good, asa -morning'But nobody here understand if someone say 'yoi asa', which literally means 'good morning'Instead we use the term 'Ohayo' which literally means 'It's early'But nobody in America would understand if one of them said 'It's early' instead of saying 'Good morning'Translation requires meaning to meaning, not word to word.I feel it's derisive when someone insist some translation is accurate because it's word to word.

Literal translation
2007.09.01 3:44
Literal translation doesn't work.English term 'Good morning' is literally means 'yoi -good, asa -morning'But nobody here understand if someone say 'yoi asa', which literally means 'good morning'Instead we use the term 'Ohayo' which literally means 'It's early'But nobody in America would understand if one of them said 'It's early' instead of saying 'Good morning'Translation requires meaning to meaning, not word to word.I feel it's derisive when someone insist some translation is accurate because it's word to word.

He is completely sane.What makes him nervous was the decision of Sumo association that prohibited his playing two consecutive series. It was Sumo association that made him sick.

In two different parts of Japan -Oga peninsula and Yokohama, the scene of unidentified flying object was video-recorded. One recorded in Oga peninsula was like a rolling sphere of light, and the other taken in Yokohama was like a stingray swimming in the sky and the size of the shape changed one to five times bigger. I recall the shape of Seraph's flying.

I was going out with a 5 year older woman when I was 40. One of my best friends advised me that she and I were not suitable because both she and I were 'unstable'. According to his theory a woman has to be stable because I am unstable. As a matter of fact we separated soon.
