Localamos:thanks for your contribution really enlightening... Which still goes to buttress my claim that virginity tests are useless and unnecessary (except in resolving crimes like rape case or its like) as the presence or absence of the hymen as an evidence to our judgmental prowess is inconsistent as thus baseless. (I even heard we now have surgical replacement of hymens and artificial hymens) |

deekseen: A virgin is someone who has never had penetrative sex, and hence, (for a woman) the hymen is still intact.Are you trying to imply that if one losses her hymen (for any reason at all) she's no longer a virgin? 1 Like |

Illuminatus: . I consider penetrative sex as sex itself and every other thing - Mouth Gig, kissing and co as supplementary.Cos you consider only penetrative s3x as s3x doesn't mean that's what it is... S3x (S3xual intercourse) is the insertion and thrusting of a male's pen1s, usually when erect, into a female's vag1na for the purposes of s3xual pleasure or reproduction. Other forms of penetrative s3xual intercourse include penetration of the a'nus (a'nal s3x), penetration of the mouth by the pen1s or oral penetration of the or vag1na (oral s3x), s3xual penetration by the fingers (finger1ng), and sexual penetration by use of a strap-on d1ldo or toys. I don't see how a'nal or oral s3x makes her less a virgin. |

okeyxyz: @OP using "backhand" tactics to bash Jehovah's Witness.Lol at "tactics" I hope the writer realises that... But I think highlighting that was just unnecessary to me as is does not help in answering the question. What is God's Name? |

In court, if you are asked to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth... what if you say "no"? #rareTHOUGHTS |

In Hebrew the name of God is spelled YHWH. Since ancient Hebrew had no written vowels, it is uncertain how the name was pronounced originally, but there are records of the name in Greek, which did have written vowels. These records indicate that in all likelihood the name should be pronounced "Yahweh." Shortly before the first century A.D., it became common for Jews to avoid saying the divine name for fear of misusing it and breaking the second commandment ("You shall not take the name of the Lord, your God, in vain," Dt 5:11). Whenever they read Scripture aloud and encountered the divine name, they substituted another Hebrew word, "Adonai" ( which means "Lord" or "my Lord" ), in its place. Eventually Hebrew developed written vowels, which appeared as small marks called vowel points and were placed above and below the consonants of a word. In the sixth or seventh century some Jews began to place the vowel points for "Adonai" over the consonants for "Yahweh" to remind the reader of Scripture to say "Adonai" whenever he read "Yahweh." About the 13th century the term "Jehovah" appeared when Christian scholars took the consonants of "Yahweh" and pronounced it with the vowels of "Adonai." This resulted in the sound "Yahowah," which has a Latinized spelling of "Jehovah." The first recorded use of this spelling was made by a Spanish Dominican monk, Raymundus Martini, in 1270. Interestingly, this fact is admitted in much Jehovah's Witness literature, such as their Aid to Bible Understanding (p. 885). This is surprising because Jehovah's Witnesses loathe the Catholic Church and have done everything in their power to strip their church of traces of Catholicism. Despite this, their group's very name contains a Catholic "invention," the name "Jehovah." Jehovah's Witnesses blast orthodox Christendom for "hiding the name of God" by replacing "Jehovah" with "the Lord" whenever "Jehovah" appears in Scripture. They charge this is a Jewish "superstition" that dishonors God (which it does not). Yet their own organization has a name that was invented as a result of the same thinking that produced use of "the Lord." Source: www.catholic.com/quickquestions/is-gods-name-yahweh-or-jehovah |
